Sie From the New Orleans Bulletin, August 16 La Patria of yesterday puolises letters from Tampi- co, from which we give some extracts below, saying that & private correspondence had been intercepted between Gen. Soott and Gen. Santa Anna, which had produced much excitement at the capital.’ It carries a rather treasonable appearance on the face of it as regards San- ta Anna, but he explains it by saying he was endeavor- ing to lead Gen, Scott into a trap. Tampico, August 6th, 1847. Our correspondence with the intérior continuos rizor- ously interoepted by General Garay, who will permalt no communication, from his hostility to the Yankees. By letters received here, we are assured that General Scott marched on the capital about the sth, without doubt One of these letters is filled with the indignation of ho- norable Mexicans at the following : “ An advanced guard of Mexicans intercepted. on the 27th of July, a correspondence of Santa Anna with Ge- neral Scott, in which the former informs the latter that he has already ordered the troops which he had collect- ed at Penon to retire from that place. As you ma; suppose, this has produced a goneral alarm in the capi- tal, to calm which Santa Anna was obliged to publish a manifesto, that it was soleiy a “stratagem of war,” with | which he’ intended to entrap the army of General Scott If this is true no one knows how the Mexicans will settle with this treacherous man, who has caused #0 much injury to his country. *In another letter ot the 22d of July, it says, “ General Santa Anna appears Tesource: ~The division under General Valencia, from San Luis, it was expected, had joined Santa Anna at the capital, with which his forces’ would number about 30,000 men, who are in want of neither provisions nor water, In @ letter dated the 9th August, publtshed in La Pa- tria, the information respeoting the “ intercepted cor- respondence” is confirmed, Extract from a letter from Tampico, dated August 7th. “ Our accounts from the capital are to the 30th. Gen. political news, as, since the expedition, writers are afs id to compromise themselves. Our regular mail from the city is, for the present, destroyed, owing as much to the lute expedition as to the order of Col. Gates, that all let- ters should first be shown to him previous to distribu- tion, They however, find their way in, by private hands, the 7th, in which citizens are forbid furnishing any ar- ticle that might find its way to the public press, under penalty of expulsion. [learn the order will be strictly enforced, without regard tothe amount of sacrifice that may be incurred by the parties, The troops that were at Tula, under General Urrea, have been withdrawn to the interior, leaving no enemy’s forcethis side of the mountains, exceeding 300 men, and they are detached in small guerilla bands.” AFFAIRS AT SANTA FE. (From the St. Louis Union, August 17.) Thre men belonging to Captain Fischor’s company arrived here on Saturday ey: ning from Sante Fe. They leit the Captain near Bent’s Fort, and he will probabl reaeh here in about eight days.” ‘They came through | without diffloulty by the route marked out for them by | a Feenchmanat Bent’s Fort. A portion of Capt Fischer's company and a portion of Capt. Weightman’s had re- volunteered for the war, and been formed into an urtil- lery company. Lieuc, Hassendunbel was elected Captain. He is a gallant officer, and wall qualified for artillery service. At Puebla he was stationed by Col. Price with- in two hundred yards of the enemy's strong position, and with hia howitzers did effective service. His euggestions at that battle were regarded by com- petent judges as of vast importance; and he baa no superior for his position, His company remains in New Mexico, and will be able to repress any: insurrection tn the neighborhood, Hence on Capt. Fischer's leaving, theartillery did not ceaso to be woll served. All the caloulstions of the enemy about his departure were doomed to be disappointed. YROM THE ARMY. {From the Washington Union, Aug. 23 Letters have been received in this city by the lest ar- rivals from Vera Cruz. Amon, letter, (which we have seen ) fe July. Gen. Scott had sent on a flag of truce on the | iset of prisoners the Mexicans should treat him asa spy from the city of Mexico. ° They refused the flag any m ion into the city,and the despatches were necessari- iy sent on by the Mexicans themselves. A reply had been received from the Mexican government, agresing to exchange Mr. Rogers, with the other prisoners; but the turms of exchange had not yet been settled, but probably would be in a few weeks. In consequence of this reply, Lieut Semmes had deemed it most prudent to withhold Commodore Perry's peremptory letter. ?'Tbis letter from Puebla turther states that Mr. Trist, who had been endeavoring for ® montn previously to open a negotiation with the Mexican government, had abandoned all hope of success—at least for the present. Mi, Buchanan’sletter had reached Santa Anna, through the courteous offices of Mr. Bankhead, and, as we have seen it repeatedly stated in the papers, was referred by Santa Auna to the Congress—a session of this body being called for that purpose. After many delays, and much apparent unwillingness to meet, tho Congress assembled with a quorum of 74 membors on the 13th of July. It immediately took the subject into considera- tion, and, as we have seen it stated, adopted a report and resolutions to the following effect, viz:—that it belonged to the executive, under their constitution, to receive ail ministers and ether public agents, and to make trea- ties of peace, alliances, &c ; that the functions of Con- gress were limited tothe approving ‘or disapproving of Uhese treaties when made; and that, consequently, until treaty should be submitted to it in form, it could take no constitutional action on the subject. Accordingly the Congress returned Mr. Buchanan's letter to Santa Anna, and adjourned on the same day it had met. The letter states there had been no meeting since, most of the mem- bers having run off, It goes on to state that, upon the re- cvipt of this report and tuese resolutions, Santa Anna is- sued a proclamation, stating that Congress, on the 20th of April last, had passed a decree declaring that any Mexican in authority, who should listen to any propo- sition for peace from the enemy, should be deemed a trai- tor and treated accordingly; and that, until this decree was repealed, his hands were tied, aud he could do no- thing; adding, at the same time, that ss Mr. Buchanan’s letter was courteous, it was due to the character of the Mexican nation to give it at least a polite reception and consideration. Thus, says the letter, the matter stands— neither santa Anna nor the Congress daring to take the responsibility of treating with us, and leaving us no al- ternative but to march to the eapital, subdue and occu- py it. “ Itis barely possible, when Santa Anna shall be again beaten and_his troops dispersed, that he may be overthrown by a revolution, and that the new party ma; make peace with us.’ The writer, however, thinks it quite likely, considering the dogged obstinacy of the race, that they will reject the olive-lranch for the pre- sent, and compel us to prosecute the war with a greater anda more sweeping vigor. The letter states that General Scott was only waiting the arrival of General Pierce, who was expected in about ten days, to move foward, Many were expecting & great battle on the plains of Mexico, as Santa Anna is said to have 25,000 troops, and has fortified the city and the approaches, Since the date of this letter, it appears, from an in- teresting article in the New Orleans Ficayune that San- ta Auna had made another appeal to Congress to rescind its deoreo of April last, and pointing out the conse- quences of its refusal; but that, at the last dates, no ac- tion had been taken by the Congress, We have seen, also, other levturs, but they are from Vera Crus. One is dated on the Lat of August.and states that the British courier bad arrived the St, before from the city of Mexico, aud that the writer had had the pe: sal of more than twenty letters received from the city— that it would appear as)f the peace party were augment- ing, although war had teen breathed out in torrents by the government pris; but that ou the 29th—the day on which the mail left—it seemed to changeits tone. and ex- pressed itself in favor of an immediate mecting of Con- gress to hear what were the terms of the United States; and if Congress should approve them, to setule the mat- ter. It further states, that old Valencia had reached the city with some 6,000 troops and some artiliery, and that these, in copjunction with the troops ulready under persons expeeted they would march out and offer Gen, Seott battle; and if they gained @ victory, then they might negotiate for peace. But the writer sbakes his head at this, and expresses it as his opinion that they would not venture upon another battle with our troops lie states that the time had passed when they might have attempted to destroy Gen, Seott’s army. Once the Commanding General had only 6,000 men with him at Puebla, aad had the Mexicans possessed courage and patriotiem enough, they might have mustered in large force, and attacked him; but the opportuvity has passed they will ever attempt the experiment. We have seen » letter from Vera Croz—viz. ; on the 7th August. Tne writer then indulges more hope of peace—the dawning of which, as he states, the British ie British’ consul a Mexico had expressed to thet friends in Vera Cruz the same opinion. This letter also states that Col, Wilson had just received a letter from General Soto, the Mexican governor of Orizaba, saying that he will ex- change Lieut. Whipple, recently taken by the guerillas, for a Lieutenant Colonel, who is now in Vera Cruz, and will also give four other American prisoners into bargain ; but the Colonel is rather scrupulous in under- taking the Wacom ed the exe } Two hundred mules, laden wich sugar and other arti- cles from Orizaba and above, had just arrive Cruz, which is the first opening that a trade with the interior has experienced. ‘the writer feels confident that, av they havenow a body of 200 cavairy in the town, they ean act on tbe offensive. and drive the guerilias back from the sand hills; and that as soon as Colonel Hughes should arrive with iis corps of cavalry, &e they would have no difficuity iu opening (he road at lest to Jalapa Ee Ban of bse he ed was calculated to inspire every body, and especially the forvign merchants, with the hope that foreign importations will increase and specie come down to the city, It was said that there was sbout six millions in money and bullion wait- greatly inclined toward peace, from absolute want of Scott had not moved.

We presume our propositions. if they shoul submitted, are drawn so clearly and distinctly as not to admit of much evasion or delay. We dare to venture another suggestion—that the administration is prepar- ing for either fortune, and that additional preparations are making for a more vigorous prosecution of the war, if such a necessity should be imposed upon us.

In March last year, an insurrection b aquil, the port of a province of Equador on it was headed by a shopkeeper named Senor Roca. Roca being convicted of seditious acts, had ordered out of the country by the sentence of the pro- per tribunal, but with the aid of a large sum of money. contrived to corrupt a company of Artillery quartered at Guayaquil, on the eve of his expulsion being carried into effect. What is called » pronunciamento followed, throwing off obedience to the government, and decla: ing the province independent. | The President, General Flores, (who had been eleoted | President for eight y ra, in 1843, by the unanimous suf- | fray of the people.) sent down from Quito, the capital uador, a few troops to quell the insurreotion, but it being the winter, or rainy season, they could not get into the town, the adjacent country about Guayaquil being flooded for many lwagues during the months of February | to July. The rebels had seized upon all the canoes and boats ontheriver,so there was no getting at them by | this channel; the troops of the government therefore | went into cantonments at the Elvira. an estate of the | President's, rituate at the head of the river, there to await until the subsiding of the waters should permit of access to the town. The rebels, in tho meantime, pressed the people into their ranks, and emboldened by the delay of the gov- ernment force, ventured up the river in boats to at- tack them before they should be reinforced; they were miserably beaten, and some hundreds who landed were | thrust back into the river at the point of the bayonet, | and drowned. They came up # sevond time, and wore | again repulsed with great slaughter. ‘The President, ever generous and bumane, did not witness unmoved this destruction of the passive and iguorant people over whose welfere he had ever been a vigilant guardian, by whom he was adored, and whose prosperity he would have secured by the most enlightened measures, had he | not been covstuntly thwarted in his views by the sedi- tious conspiracies of this same truculent incendiary, Roca, and a tew others of the same blighted and broken reputation, who found in the indolent action of the laws, and weakness of the executive power, time to carry out their insurrectionary plans with {mpuuity. Thus, in the year 1843, Presideut Flores having asked and obtuined from the Congress of that year,* power Lo levy a small tax on the people (the people of Equador pay no taxes) in order to secure a positive amount of money | to be solely and exclusively appropriated to the payment of interest to the British bondholders, and to restore Ly this means some portion of the lost credit of the coun ty, Mr. Zambo Roca raised the standard of revolt. and rebellion against the decree of the Congress and the measures of the government for carrying that decree | into effect; and in this manner was retarded a settle- ment with the foreign creditors, notwithstanding the anxious desire of the President to do them justice, and at the sume time, to release th» country from the stigma of dishonesty and ingratitude, whieh still continues to disgrace it. “The late law uf public credit established | by Roca, will convince the bondholders of what they have to expect from such # tyro. It was published in the Daisy News of the 26th oi last month, and «1 re- commend their attention to it. ‘lo return to the rebols of Guayaquil; I sbail briefly state, that the President, | although ut the bead of wnarmy firmly devoted to him, and oflicered by his ancient comrades, the veterans of | Holivar, resolved to spare the effusion of blood in a evil bentest which had no othyr foundation than the preda- | tory views of Roca/and tho gang of smugglers by whom ho was surrounded and supported.

Is it, therefore, a cause for wo der that Genoral Flores, a maa whose path through a long career of political and military renown in those ountries, has never been sullied by one solitary blot, a mun admired and beloved by nis friends for the noble- ness of his nature, as dreaded by his enemies for his skill and success in the deld; is it,! repeat, a cause for wonder, that such a man shonld listen to the entreaties for his return from the principal people of the country should be anxious to repair a false step—to nave his own honor by vindicating the rights of a people and of a country of which he is the legal and popular president, and by standing by those brave and faithful frlenas who in obedience to his orders, accepted, against their cun- victions. a treaty with rebels and traitors, every part of which they immediately violaved, notwithstanding the national honor! pledged for its ovservance? in utter disregard of the customs of civilized beings, and of the disastrous cons es ot such barbarism, not only did Rooa break every article of that treaty by his atrocious raecution of the loyal supporters of the government, but he also, by the public act of a meeting assembled ad hoc, in December following (last December.) annulled that treaty formally, and had himself named President of the State—“Quem Deus vult perdere prius dementat.” The Pagan maxim holds good in this instance. The insane assemblage which declared that treaty null and void, could do no more to destroy their own pretensions to le gality. By this act Generai Flores is released from all An. every obligation he had contracted by that treaty: Ho reassumes his position as the constitutional President | of Equador, and with it, all the obligations annexed to that ofice.’ He is bound by every moral and polittoal principle to suppress the barbarous faction that op sees and disgraces the country which be himself called into political existence. ‘This alone is the object he has in view; the neighboring States have nothing to the whole tenor of {fords ample guarantees for the future, Nothing of an aggressive policy with regard to those States for whose liberty aad indepen- dence he has shed bis blood on many @ field, could be for moment entertained in his truly noble and patriotic heart.

TREATY. Body, $c. In the early part of this week, the members of the Common Coungil of your city, together with the officers of the Croton Water Works, and other officers of the city government, forming party of about sixty in | number, visited this village, on their way to the Croton Daim, for the ostensible purpose of making an annual inspection ofthe works; although, from what occurred here, some simple-minded persons suppose that the real object was to liave a little frolicsome recreation. They took lodgings at a respectable and quiet inn of the vil- lage—at least #0 many as could be accommodated. A portion of them sought refuge in other public houses in the place. . ‘After visiting the dam and water works—about eight miles distant—they returned, and resumed thoi rquar- ters in tho village, where they remained couple of | days, enjoying themselves in a manuer which may be | considered rational and decorous in the great metro- polis, but which gave us, poor country folks, some very new and odd ideas of aldermanic dignity and propriety. othwithstanding their innocent surpri rly strange deportment of some of the wortby parents ofthe emporium, and the quantity of cocktails and unches they managed to consume, which they attri- Buted to rome serious disappointment that the’ digni- taries had experienced in testing the qualities of the Croton, the inhabitants of the village fully appreci- ated the high and distinguished honor paid them, by oceasion of the visit of that time-honored, dignified, and respectable body of men, and testified their gratitude by various hospitable demonstrations and civilities, The occasion of such @ distinguished visit could not but deeply impress the people here with » full sense ot the importance and consequence of those high function- ies; but I fear that some things occurred which tended lessen the degree of wonderment and admiration which the presence of that respectable body has hereto- fore uniformly inspired in the popular mind. Some ori- ginal dances were introduced at ball held by the fune- tionaries—(a very exclusive one it was, as all others than | the officti wore excluded.) Among the most attractive of which was the stag dance; doubtless a very dignitied und fatherly dance, but the delights of which would pro- bably be moro enjoyed by the participants than by near neighbors, at four inthe morning; these nmusemente were interspersed with some classic break-down, dandy Jims, Camptown hornpipes, &c, Amoug. other innocent | pastimes adopted by the representatives of the common- woalth, waa the playful one of deputing « committee to xo from one inn to another to haul their more quiet and orderly compatriots out of their drowsy beds, sometime between midnight and day break; and while returoiug with their prisoners sans culottes, breaking the peaceful stiliness of tho night with imitations of the Indian war whoop, the key bugle,with variations admirably executed d faithful echoes of oxt-cries, Eccentricities of this aracter were calcalated rather to lessen than increase the respect in which the members of the body were held, | if they did not entirely diminish the awe inspired by the august importance of the body corporate. “But whats shock their respect received when there honorable officials took their departure without paying | their tavern bills, incurred for board, lodging, drinks, | punches, slings. carriage hire, &c, &o, ' Yes! the worthy | fathers of the city, after indulging in every extravagant excess, absolutely absconded—sbail I say’ without pay- ing theie bills!

It is doubtful whether the tavern keeper could recover for refrosh- mente furnished to individual members of the corpora- | tion, out of the county, And as @ principal part of the billsis for wines and liquors, it is also doubtful whether | th landlord could recover, and whether the statute against trusting persons over acertain amount for liquors drank at the bar, would not be # bar to his action.
