Our Pacific squadron is busy upon the western ports of Mexico. On the 28th of April a squadron of six or eight vessels was off Mazatlan, 4 thousand men were to disembark to take the town. Letters from Ma- zatlan say they were making there every preparation for defence, but if the descent is made in as great force as ia represented, they can make no defence of much ao- count. Other accounts say that the port of San Blas, too, was menaced by our squadron, and that it was the purpose of the Americans toland and take the town. ‘The Mexicans believe that the property seized by Gens.

[From the New Orleans Picayune, June 1.] By the steamer James L. Day, Capt. Wood, we have acounts from the Brazos to the 28th ult., and a later mail from the army of Gen. Taylor. Col, Jeff. Davis's regiment of Ist Mississippi Rifles, and the 2d Kentucky Infantry, under the comnand of Major Fry, were at the Brazos on the 28th, and to sail on the following day for this port. The Kentuckiaus have with them the remains of Col. McKee, Lieut. Col. Clay, Capt. Willis and Lieut. Powell of their regiment, and also those of Capt, George Lincoln, all of whom fell gloriously, at Buens Vista. Both regiments, Mississippi and Kentucky, were in fine health. In conversation with Lieut. Aken, of the 24 Kentucky Foot, we learn that a most deplorable duel occurred at China about the 2ist ult, between two lioutenants in the Virginia regiment.’ The news was taken to Camargo by Mr. Dowd, beef contractor at China, and wasfully credited by all a: Camargo. According to this report, the two lieutenants—one of whom was named Muhan, and the name of the other not being recollected —fought with muskets loaded with ball and buckshot, and both purties were killed, Most sincerely do we hope there may be some exaggeration in the statement, but Lieut. Aken leaves but little room for hope. He fully believes it, and it was generally credited at Carmargo. In the first letter of our correspondent below, fears are when Com. Connorattacked it; in Huatuxco, (ien. Her- nandex: and in Orizaba, Gen. Teran, He announces that he himself was on his march to Puebla, compelled to that course by his extreme destitution. He has only had $25,000 to do all he has done, and thinks he could easily have ten or twelve thousand men under arms, if the government would give him means, If this letter shows some energy and spirit, the soond lotter is replete with evidence of » contemptible, brag- gart soul. would fain prepare the way for his entry into the city of Mexico like a hero and # conqueror. To enable the reader to verify this, we annex a transin- tion of the letter, written on the 15th May, from San Martin Teameluoan, seven Mexican leagues beyond Pue- bla towards Mexico, The town of Amozoe, 60 often mentioned in it, is four leagues this side of Puebla :— Aamy oF OreRations or THE East, f) Head-Quarters of the General in:Chief, At San Martin, Tesmelucan, May 15, 1847. § His Exceuency tae Minister oF Wan—I communt- cated to your Excellency in my despatch of the day before yesterday. at 9 o'clock, ?.

As soon as the intelligence was re- ceived & squadron of U. 8. dragoons were ordered to re- move for the rancho and protect the inhabitants, but subsequent intelligence being received that the Ca- mauches bad got away, the order was countermanded. We are yet all in the dark with regard to Gen. Seott’s movements against Senta Auna, but rumor has it that the Mexicans have been entirely routed and defeated. Considerable uneasiness is felt here with regard to t! safety of Col. Douiphan’s command, from whom nothi authentic bas recently been heard. Capt. Pike, with s small party of volunteer cavalry, proceeded to joim Col. Doniphan about three weeks ago, but nothing has been of him since he left Parras which can be relied upon.

The rest of the party fled, and the ac- count we have received states that Simmons’s compa- nions were carried out of reach by their horsos becoming unmanageable. His leg was amputated, but no hopes were entertained of his recovery. This young mat, in company with a companion, ran the gauntlet of lancers from Saltillo to Rinconada, carrying the order for Gen.

I started from Monterey on the morning of the glorious sth of May, the anniversary of the day when the first battle was fought on the plains of Palo Alto, and arrived here in the afternoon of the equally glorious 9th of May. having stopped at Passo Kinconads one night. Ofail the dens it was ever my misfortune to enter, the Pas capped climax, and I really quite envied the pleasure that Herr Driesbach must enjoy on, enter. ing the cage with bis lions and tigers, ‘The place is garrisoned by three companies of Col. Curtis's regiment of Obio volunteers, and a more ragged, woe-bogone set I never saw. To get any thing to eat was out of the ques- tion, and there were no quarters indoors. Maj. Butler, U. 8. Paymaster, arrived in the afternoon, and paid off the men, and some of them immediately began to drink muscal and play cards.

With the faint, seductive hepe that we might obtain breakfast at « rancho about twelve miles off, 1 regret to say, but a regard for truth compels me to utter the melancholy fact that the inhabited rancho existed only in the heat- ed imagination of our informant, for not a particle of re- freshment could we obtain until we reached a small the village,and in a narrow lane covered on both sider by trees which protected it against the attack of my troops. The enemy, fearing notwithstanding that the convoy might be captured, sent immediately a force of 1000 infuntry with six pieces of cannon to its assistance. These troops immediately opened a fire on my column, which fearlessly continued its march to within one league of Amozoo, at which point I determined to coun- termareh to Puebia, where I arrived at haif-past 4 o'clock in the afternoon in the best order. ‘The whole population of this beautiful city was in mo- tion at the entrance of my division, and gave signs of the most ardent enthusiasm. I could hardly walk, from being surrounded by thousands of citizens, who were hurraing for independence and for the Republic, and giving utterance totheir hatred of ourinvaders. Inthese moments my heart was agitated by different feelings, as 1 looked upon an enthusiastic people calling upon me for arms to defend themselves, giving the most signal proof of their love for the liberty of their country, and as I reflected upon the responsibility of those who having the means had neglected to take advantage of the good dis- positions of these people, the only want in this city, your Excellency, was proper men to move in the defence of the national cause, Resuming the thread of my military report, I will in- form your Excellency that, although our guide having missed the road, brought us within grape shot distance of the village of Amasoc, we completely flanked this vil- lage, showing the enemy by this bold movement the con- tempt in which we held him, He appeared, however, determined not to leave his strong hold afer having spved his convoy, and both myself and my officers rode off with the conviction that the enemy dared not accept our challenge in the open field ‘Tho loss we have to deplore in this feat of arms is three soldiers killed and one wounded, and four horses killed.

Our squadron,under the active and energetic adminis- tration of Commodore Perry, is now extended from one end of the Mexican coast to the other, a ship of war be- ing stationed at every port, nearly all of which are now in our possession. Commodore Perry has certainly not been wanting in energy. The Commodore, with the Mississippi, and a part of the squadron, is now at the Southward but is daily expected at Anton Lisardo or this place, ne it is said that Tabasco is not immediately to be attacked, At Anton Lizardo none but the store ships are now lying—at this place the Petomac and Spitfire. By the steamer Petrita, which came the other day from Alvarado, we learn that Capt. Mayo, governor of that place, went up the river sixty miles, to attack a Mexi- ean town called Talascogia.

Boston, June 7, 1847. My Dear Sie :—I have more than once conversed with you upon the subject of establishing a school for the purpose of teaching the practical sciences, in this city or neighborhood, and was gratified when | learned from you that the government of Harvard University had de- termined to establish such a school in Cambridge, and that a Professor had been appointed who is eminent in the science of chemistry, and who is to be supported on the foundation created by the munificence of the late Count Rumford. For several years I have seon and felt the pressing want in our community, (and in fact in the whole coun- try,) of an increased number of men educated in the practical sciences. Elementary education appears to be well provided for in Massachusetts. There is, however, a deticiency inthe means for higher education in certain branches of knowledge. For an early classical eduoa- tion we have our schools and colleges. From thence the special schools of Theology, Law, Medicine and Surgery, receive the young men destined to those professions; and those who look to commerce as their employment, pass to the counting house or the ocean. But where can we send those who intend to devote themselves to the prac- tical applications of science? How educate our E:ngi- neers, our Miners, Machinists, and Mechanics? Our country abounds in men of action. Hard hands are ready to work upon our hard materials ; and where shall wious heads be taught to direct those hands ? ‘aventive men laboriously reinvent what has been produced before. Ignorant men fight against the laws of nature with a vain energy, ‘and purchase their expe- rience at @ great cost. Why should not all these sturt where their predecessors ended, and not where they be- gan? Education can enable them todo so. The ap- plication of science to the useful arts has changed. in the last half century, the condition and relations of the world. It seems to me that we have been somewhat ne- glectful in the cultivation and encouragement of the scientific portion of our national economy. Our country is rapidly increasing in population and wealth, and is probably destined in another quarter ot aocentury to contain nearly as many inhabitants as now exist in France and England together We have already in the United States a large body of young inen who have received w classical education, many of whom find it ditfcnit to obtain a livelihood in what ure termed the learned professions, | believe the time has arrived when we should make an effort to di- versify the occupations of our people, and develope more fully their strong mental and physical resources, throughout the Union. We have, perhaps. stronger mo- tives in New England, than in any other part of our country, to encourage scientific pursuits, from the fact that we must hereafter look for our main support to the pursuit of commerce, manufactures, and the mechanic arts; to which it becomes our duty, in my humble judg- ment, to make all the appliances of science within our power. Wein i soil; and what nature bas denied, should be, as far as possible, supplied by art. We must make better farmers through the application of chemical and agricultural science. Cr We need then @ school, not for boys, but for young men whose early education is completed, either fn col- d who intend to enter upon an ac- or chemists, or in general, as men pPiying their attainments to practical pur- poses; where they may learn what has been done at other times and in other countries; and may acquire ha- ron, as far as can learn, is whose gallantry and courage Americans may well be proud. You may look out for squalls at San: Luis. ‘They say it is there thy Mexicans will make their finai great struggle, but we will seo what we shall see. The weathor here, at present is as hot, if not more so, than you have it in New Orleans. AFFAIRS IN YUCATAN. {from the New Orleans Delta, June 1.] By tho Elena, from Campeachy‘ we have received files of papers from that port to the i2th ult., and from Meri- da to the 1ith. They contain little of importance, ex- cepting an order from the government of the State, in regard to the mannor in which t! tne Mexican flag during the difficul ted States. The Mexican flag is recognized as the only onewhich Yucatan has a right to use; but besides it » white flag with a red and green bar crossed in « diagonal direction, is ordered to be used immediately under the Mexican flag, as a distinction for Yucatan vessels. The people of Campeacby and Sisal feared that the United States would not be humbugged much longer with such neutrality, and they dreaded » blockade or some other act from the squadron, which would put a stop to their commerce with foreign ports. INCIDENTS OF THE BATTLE OF BUENA VISTA. The Arkansas Intelligencer publishes an extract from a private letter of an officer of the army, containing some anecdotical particulars of the battle of Buena Vista. On the 9ist February the whole army fell back from Agua Nueva to Buena Vista, except the Arkansas Cav- alry, under Col. Yell, which was detained to guard the provisions in store till the wagons could return from Buena Vista. In the evening Gen. Wool learned that Santa Anna was close to Agua Nueva—to which place the lst Dragoons and Kentucky Cavalry were immedi- ately ordered, with directions, in conjunction with the Arkansas Cavalry—to hold the place till the provisions were removed. On our arrival, at 12 o'clock at night, we found all the stores packed in ns, except about three hundred bushels of corn. A few minutes after this the Arkansas Cavalry, who were stationed a half mile in front, fired on the advance of the Mexican army and fell back. Col. Marshall, of the Kentucky Cavalr, ordered the wagons to fall back on Buena Vista, whi we waited to set fire to the buildings containing the corn, and to cover the retrevt of the wagons. | shall never forget this retreat. The Mexican lancers in full force were not five minutes behind us when our squadron left Agua Nuova—the distance to Buena Vistaten miles— the road beautiful. You will understand how we tray led when I inform you that our empty wagons made t! distance in thirty and our loaded ones in forty minutes. orse time. ie ? ° ° hour before sunset on the 22d, I, with some two or three officers, rode on the ridge within three or four hundred yards of the enemy and took a good view of the elephant, and | tell you candidly, from the appear- ance of Santa Anna’s army, and his immense superiori- tyof numbers, | feared the result; but still we had old Zach to lead us on, and our beloved wives and country to fight for, and | felt confldent of succes. ‘That night the whole army slept on thelr arma; | with boots and purr on nnd the rein of my noble steed's bridle in hand, laid down on a few sott bles, intending to sleep, but soon strains of most melodious music from the enomy's bands came floating on the evening breeze, each note softened by distance, yet distinct. ‘was never before so affected by music—sleep was at once banished, and visions of home, and all those dear associations of tran- quil life, filled my mind, to be dispelled only by the thun- der of artillery which greeted the firststreak of morning light and foretold to all the struggle which ensued.— . * * —* During the fight, old Zach was near one of the regiments of infantry and saw the men dodg- ing their head: ery direction to avoid the balls, when he said: and up to them, my men—don’t be a- fraid, they will all go over ran" came whizzing close to his head, and he involuntarily peech—"but dodge them if you s dodged—continuing can, it is not a bad plan.’ After the battle | was ordered with sixteen men to es- Bliss with a flag of truce to Santa Anna, When we errived within abeut one hundred yards of « iment of lancers, which seemed to be the r rd, wo wero halted.
