Wasniscron, May 14, 1947 Rumor of a D-feat ur Repulse at Purtla We are startled into another stampede to-day, as wo were when the false reports first came up from the South of the defeat of Gen. Taylor. The rumor of to- day is that Gen, Scott, or the advanced guard of Gen. Scott's army, under Gen. Worth, had been repulsed at Puebla, If Worth pushed forward with ten or fifteen hundred men to the occupation of a olty of eighty thousand inhabitants, the report may be assumed to bear upon its face a very plausible show of credibility, although it is difficult now to believe that any force of “ Los Yankees” can be vanquished by any congregation of Mexicans in any situation, with the summit of the volcanoes of Popocatapet! in their favor. Tho Union extinguishes the story of the extra-seasion of Congress. Events may speedily occur, either for peace or war, requiring tho assemblage of vither the Senate or of both Houses to strike while the iron ishot. As to the sinews of war, wo have them in the greatest abun- dance. Never were armics better fed, better clothed, or better supplied with the irons and combustibles of wat than the American armies in Mexico. They have suf. fered a little for corn and pork, and grass in New Mex! oo and Mexico and Californis ut itis along journey to transport such articles thither, and these countries have not the adinitted fertility of Egypt, after a close examination. We expect further intelligence to-night. The Virginia elections are as yet, in regard to two or three members of Congreas, in a stato of perplexing dir pute and uncertainty. Wasuinaron Later Intelligence It is concluded that the defeat of Scott was a hoax gotten up for speculative purposes. Holders of stocks would do well to look out, as they will be shaved. Tho Mexican nation {s certainly in a — bad way.— ‘Taylor and Scott and Co. have levied upon nearly all their great guns and munitions, and small arms. The policy of the Mexicen ‘government bas been to keop fire arms out of tho hands. of the people. Hence very fow of the peoplc have even a shot gun or rifle in their houses—und it is only the rabble of the army who know how to use tho musket indifferently. The result \s, that im capturing the arms of the army, the nation Is May 14, 1847. left without arms. The poliey of suppressing the dis tribution of arms among the people, for fear of mischief, operates to leave th ion an easy prey to toreign in, vaslon. ‘The Mexicans are truly in a bud, shockling be condition for expelling “the periidious Yaukeos.” WW Wasnixoton, Weat Point and the Arm Bh tetas bags Heravp :— e spirit you have ever evinced in relation to ‘aduates of West Point, is in all respects pol le; and while it accords with high-t Uberality, it is dol deere gone May 14, 1847 y. no more than even-hand to distinguished merit. ‘The praises you ‘utter ane toe heart- sentiments of every intelligent American.

Thero is another class of mon deserv- ing their country’s gratitude, who, as» body, are mover mentioned, notwithstanding’ their doeds havo placed them fn the vanguard of heroes, and they are regarded as umong the most sceomplihed soldiers of the age. ! need not apprise you, nor your onlightenod readers that the class to whom I allude are the officers. who were a) pointed from civil life, and who entered the army with. out the advantoges of a military eduoation at the ex. pense of the nation.

The tal. litary academy has heretofore been assailed in Congress and out, on various grounds, but never, | believe be- cause of the supposed lack of patriotinm, courage, or efficiency of ite graduates. Other reasane exist, not the least prominent of which is the Injudicious conduct of some of the advocates of the institation, us well us that of many of the graduates themselves The graduates are a brave, accomplished ret of fel lows, and many of them generous as they are brave; but while they have no more right to appointments in the army than any other citizens, it illy agreos with the eha- racter whioh ail would award them, to detract from those whote oniy blame is not to have bern a fortunate as themselven. “ SEVENTY SIX."
