Tbe HERR OSE J. DE HERRERA, IGNACIO MORA Y VILLAMIL, BERNARDO COUTO, MIGUEL ATRISTAIN. ‘To his excellency the Minister of Interior and Foreign Relations ADDITIONAL NEWS FROM MEXICAN PAPERS, [From the New Orleans Picayune, Sept 28 } On an attentive perusal of our files ‘by the James L. Day, we find much of interest that escaped our atten- tion in a first glance at them. First we find it stated in Vera Cruz, of the 16th instant, on the private letters, that in the battl’ of the fought on the 8th justant, the Mexiosn loss was considerable ; “for, besides,” says that journal, “the death of Gen Dou Lucas Balderas, the regiments Nos 3 and 4 of Fght troops. and the 11th of the live, have been cut to pieces”? The Arco Ine adds: “ The loss of the enemy has been large, he having lost three pieces of artillery and five hundred men, it is asserted, who were placed hors du combat. AWe may here state that we have « letter from Pense- cola, giving verbal information obtained from Captain Frauk Smith, of the brig, Osceola, who left Vere Crux | on the 13th inst... stating that in the sction which fol- lowed the termination of the armistice, Gen. Worth was dangerously wounded, and abvut eleven hundred of men killed. This intelligence was, in all probability, gathered in Vera Crus, and is only one of the thousand Tumors that were circulsting there. The correspon- dence ofthe Arco [ris differs materially from the first Mexican accounts of the affair, aud strepgthens our be- Hef that the representations that it was disastrous to our ‘to » messurable extent, Mexican bombast. ready gl ays ‘a negotiations with Mr Trist, from & communicativn from the Mexict a traorlation cf which is published bele receded frow his first proposision, in mands. avd that on this point,the ouly immediate differ- ence wan upon the cresion of New Mexico; Mr. Trist, according to the Mexican commissioners, being willing to recede frem his demand of the Californias below the 37th parallel of latitude, and. alao expressing his willing- ness to refer to his governmert the difference in relation to the territory between the Nuecesand the Rio Grande The reauer will observe on & perusal of one of the com. munications of ty Mexican commissioners that it was the wish of their government to make it # condition of the treaty toat the British goveramwnt should guaranty ite falfiment ‘Thin was certainly a singular proposition, and was of iterlt sufficient to terminate the negotiations,if it was the only polnt of difference, and waa insisted on. ‘be Arco Tris of the 4th of this month has an ab- stract of the report of Gen. Salas—who, it will be re- membered, was taken prisoner by our army—of the bat- tle of Contreras, Hy attributes the defeat of his army to the want of judgment in Gen. Valencia in selecting his position for giving our forces battle, and to tl rdice of Gen. Torrejon. ‘The report furnishes a Uist of the Mexican officers killed, wounded and taken Prisoners They are as follows : Kitten.—Byt. Gen Don Jose Frontera, Cant. Don Jouquin Rica, Lieut.

Nichoias Mendoza, one hun- { dred lieut colonels, four officers attached to the artil- lery, and one lieut ‘colonel and four captains, staff off- cers, In addition to these Salas says 1309 privates were taken prisoners. We have the names of those officers taken prisoners, but it 1s too lengthy to publish. ‘At Churubusco, Salas, says one colonel, & second ad- jutant, three Meutenants and five second Heutenants ‘were taken prisoners and were at Tlalpan. | The -4rco Iris, of the 15th, under a caption of the | Padre Jarauta, relates that he captured an American named D.N Curtis, with goods valued at $7,000, which he was endeavoring to smuggle into the territory by the Orisaba road. Exasperated by his loss, says the Arco Jrus, he watched an opportunity, seized a musket, aud thot three persons who were at play ata table, one of whom has since died, and effected his escape. The State of Zacatecas, taking advantage of the dis- tracted condition of the couutry, it is said, has sent a force to Aguascalientes, which has for some time acted independently of Zacatecas, and has been recognised as an independent State, to reduce it to submission, which consisted of 450 men, and two pi ter’? peo} a ills, and relied upon the bra- 0 defend them. In relation to Paredes, the rco Iris of the [8th inst. after mentioning that the Padre Jaraute had left Sole- dad for Jalapa with a force of three hundred men, well mounted, andarmed and equipped, with the intention of attacking the first train that went up, says it has re- liable intelligence that the ex-President was in the State of Puebla with » force of six thousand men, prepared to Po 3 Heme any reinforcements from reaching Gen Scott I¢is added tnat he had declared it was his intention in returning to his native country, only to serve her in her difficulties aud not to foment revolution for his per- sonal advaticement. Earlier advices state that be had been sick at Tepeaca, from which he had recovered. He had been appointed Inepector General of the National Guard, or militia of Puebla; but the Arco Iris shrewdly observes that it is not probable he returned to Mexico to obtain so empty an honor as this, |The government, up to the last advices, had made no attempt to arrest him in his proceedings. 2 Here are the conditions upon which the Legion of St. Patrick entered the Mexican service, It is contained in acommunication from the Secrotary of State to the Secretary of War and of the Navy. We find it in the Arco Iris of Vera Cruz:— Foneion Lecion, Comrantes or Sr. Patnicx, Mexico, July 7, 1847. } We, the undersigned foreigners, voluntarily agree to serve in the above named Legion for the term of six months from the date hereof, legally, under the following conditions, in the Mexican service :—First. the Mexican government shall give us lands to cultivate at the close of the war; second, those who do not desire to remain in the country shall be sent to Europe at the expense of the supreme government, and shall receive a gratification in money; third, the Mexican government agrees to give to the legion, during the time of its en ing, hoes, ko ; fourth, ge e rials, the 2d four—corporals three, and the soldiers two anda half aduy; fifth, we acknowledge as commander of the legion, Col. bon Francisco R. Moreno, in obedience to the supreme government, and all orders given by sald chief will be obeyed by the legion—and in Case of misbehavior we will be subjected to punishment socording to the ordinances of the Mexican army ; sixth, the legion will be subject in every respect to the afore- said ordinances. FRANCISCO R. MORENO. Mexico, August 9, 1847. ‘A true copy. MANUEL MARIA DE SANDOVAL. THE RESULT OF THE NEGOTIATIONS. {From the Washington Union, Oct. 5. The documents connected with the recent negotia- tions in Mexico, which we published last evening, will present to the country in a new and most striking light he desperate infatuation of the enemy with whom we deal The whole basis of negotiation assumed by the Mexican government, and the propositions finally re- solved upon as its ultimatum, outraging us they do every principle of international justice, ean only be regarded as another insult added to the long series of wrongs and indignities which the Mexiean rulers have hea m uo * + © © ‘Ie is fully proved at last, that Mexico, conquered and almost disarmed, * * * * has resolved, that she will have no peace with our government, save upon terms, which are a daring outrage upon our national rights and honor. Suol an outrage, beyond all question, is the Mexican de- mand for the Nueces as the boundary of Texas. Such still more plainly is the Mexican demand for indemnitioation at our hands for the losses and « penses of the war which Mexico bas fi roed upon us. * * * Nothing remains for our government for the patriotism of our country but to addr: es th selves anew, in a sterner spiric, and with augmented energy, to the task of compelling, at all hezards, a satis- fact ‘and honorable peace.

Henceforth we must seek peace, and compel it, by in- | filcting upon our enemy all the evils of war. | *~ ‘THE LATE NEWS FROM MEXICO | (From the New Orleans Picayune, Sept. 28 ) | Taking it in all its bearings, we cannot but look upon the last news fromMexico as the most important Vt has been reosived from there since the opening of the war. We know how severe were the battles of Contreras of our Mexican that followed setae gh gdh col big addressed ™ endeavor obtain @ popular insurrection, and at the same time to the oe of Mexico and Puebla with the ie roulars military commandant of Mexico, tells the themmvlvse with any and every description of weapon within their reach, and ussures them that « people pores nerd to 1d conquered must ultimately pi et tt serra om he enjoins upon them to “ as our accounts are, they are hat te battle at the Mill of 1 Rey wos herd east one.

This, how- itis obvious, was not 40 easy 8 task as the letters ht from the morning of the 8th to the night of detore he effected an entrance is proot conclusive hat he had yet the hardest work before him. Besides, rinistioe (we say“ granting” because it that Gen Scott was requ sted by Sante Anna, through the British Minister, to take the initiative ia the matter) there peace, either ‘at once, without the prospect ot obtaining a ‘for the Mexican government and Congr as had declared its intention of retiring eral leagues from the cupital in the event of en,) or to enter into an armistice, by the terms of which meither army was to be reinforced or their fortifi- cations repaired or strengthened And it may be well supposed that our troops, after the hardshi ey had undergone in their march from Chalco votil they come in front of the enemy's main works—a march of three days over s broken aad difficult country—and after their hard fighting on the 19th and 20th of August in taking Contreras and Churubusco, wanted rest, and possibly might not have been in @ condition to atteck at onoe the formidable works between them and the city. Wisse se Gk pitas See has suffered alone that this intelligence is important. It shute out sll pros- pects of a peace. The Mexican commissioners, with Herrera, the peace advocate, at their head, declare that the moderate terms proposed by Mr Trist were entirely inadmissible, and their ultimatum was equally s0 to us. We find that the Governors of several of the States, at the very moment that negotiations were pending, were issuing addresses to the people inciting them to rise against their invaders. Eyen as early as the 23d of Au- gust it is anounced in the Diario del Gudierno that seventy members of ss bad declared their unwill- ingness to deliberate in ¢! anal while the army of the enemy was threatening it, they accordingly retired to Toluca Santa Anna, there is every reason to believe, is still in the field with a force of no inconsiderable atrength—and Paredes is said to be between Pusbia and Jalapa with » body ofsix thousand men. We have no- thing to look for, therefore, but # prosecution of the war for an indefinite period. ‘The positions of our two commanding gonerals—Taylor reduced to the feeblest defensive strength, and Scott cut down we know not to what extent, in an enemy’s city of two hundred thousand popwlation—are such as to de- mand the immediate attention of the government, San- ta Anna is doubtless still strong enough to menace the valley of the Rio Grande, and there should be no delay in reinforcing Gen. Taylor. With Gen. Scott the de- mand for more troope must be equally pressing. He is not only in @ city containing a hostile popuist ion of two hundred thousand, but has Santa Anna in bis immedi- ate vicinity, and we have had too many proofs of the oe- lerity with which he can raise armies to trust to his in- activity. Prompt and energetic action is required of our government, or much of the work that has been done may have to be done over again. The Mexicans are lear ing to fight frem us, as did the Russians under Pe- ter the Great from Charles the Twelfth, and we cannot be too well or too soon prepared for some new demon- stration on their part. THE RELEASE OF THE ENCARNACION PRISONERS. [From the New Orleans Picazune, Sept. 28 } At length we have the pleasure of announcing the re- lease of our brave countrymen who were taken prisoners at Enoarnacion and other places by the Mexicans. It will be recollected that Col. De. Russy, with his com- mand, was des ‘Tampico some months since, to effect the release of the American prisoners. Yester- day the U 8 stesmship McKim arrived in the river from Vera Cruz, baving on board anumber of these men. The McKim will probably reach the city to-day. A friend has kindly furnished us with alist of the names of the relensed prisoners on bourd of her,and knowing the anx- iety which, is ‘elt. by their relatives and friends for their welfare, it is gratifying to be able to publish the lst. be- low. About thirty-five of the released prisoners (team- sters) remained at Tampico, in the employ of the U. 8. Quartermaster at that place.

BENSANCON AND LIEUT. DAVID HENDERSON Mr. Alphonse Eloi, who arrived on Sunday from Vera Crus, by way of Tampico, to us that as early as the first week of this mouth mews hed reached Vera Cruz thet Capt. L. A. Bensancon’s company, with the exception of Lieut. John Hawkins and some fifteen or sighteen men who were left to guard camp inside of thin about Vera Cruz, had been attacked by guerilias w amile of the National Bridge, this side, and it was sup- posed that every man of them had been killed. Mr. Elio came passenger by the McKim, which vessel he left in the river forty miles from the city, and reached here by the Mexican Gulf Railway. While at Vera Cruz he wasemploy police department, and enjoyed op- portunities of information with greater facility get than many others, The news of the loss of Capt Ben- sancon’s company was received by Mr. Eloi from a Spaniard arrived from the city of Mexico. This Spa- gave the names of many of the officers and men with great accuracy The force of the guerillas was ¢s- timated at about 1200 strong Mr. Eloi farther states, pt. Bincoe, also of the mounted battalion, had gone to the ground and examined the graves of Captain Bensancon’s men, and his examination confirmed the Spanterd’s report. No account is given as to how the ommand was buried. Mr Eloi sailed from Vera Cruz on the 10th inst. It was his impression, as well as that of others there, founded upon the Spaniar that the news ef Lieut. Henderson's and p is us founded, . Hen- y. and that be had been ordered, with a handfal of men, to some detached duty on the road. Mr. Eloi says that Alsoredita altogether the report tet they had passed ihe d or 6) the bridge and joined Maj. Lally’s train. ile at Tampico Mr. Eloi saw @ letter from Vera Cruz, dated the 14th inst.—four days after he left—written to a Mr. Durald, who also came s pestenger by the McKim from Tampico, which stated that news of Lieut. Henderson's arrival at Vera Cras ww there, but that none of his numerous friends were able to discover any trace of him, though they had sought him for two days.

The present acting Governor, Don Donaciano le, has discharged the duties of the office with unwavering good faith and ability, but being a native Mexican, ana having been deprived of the exercise of some of the most important functions of his office by the stronger arm, the military, he feels delicacy which at times prevents him from acting with the decision and independence he otherwise might.

The result of the recent Irtsh elections gives fair promise that the reign of humbug in that country is tottering to its fall. A healthy tional feeling is beginning to pervade all classes; and she chief source of the many evils with which the island has hitherto been afflicted, has been laid bare. This monstrous source ot evil consists in place-begging. The {rish members, in order to secure votes at home among their constituents, have been in the habit of begging appointments from the minister of the day, who, of course, by the bestowal of office acquired a lien on their support in Parliament. When a ion affecting Ireland’s welfare came up, the est professing friends of the people were generally found on the Treasury benches, voting either for or against the measure, as the Minis- ter would dictate ; or else quietly staying away and dodging the question, if they could not muster sufficient impudence to give an open vote prejudicial to the interests they were elected to defend. This place-begging has been carried to an enormous extent. Even Mr. O’Connell him- self practised it, and his sons have openly avow- edit. Itis notat all surprising that all efforts for the amelioration of Ireland have been para- lysed by this system. The Irish delegation in the British Parliament was a mere nonentity, while the English minister held their votes in his pocket. Many who would have scorned to accept office for themselves, were never- theless in the habit of soliciting it for their friends and constituents; and so firm was the hold on their suffrages acquired by the Minister in this way, that even during the fear- ful pressure of the late famine, many Irish mem- bers were found so recreant to principle and hu- manity, as to vote against the large measure of relief proposed by Lord George Bentinck, which would unquestionably have averted the doom of hundreds of thousands who have since died of starvation, and that, because the measnre was unpaletable to the Minister. It needs no argument to prove that the interes of England and of Ireland are, and always have been, antagonistic. The trade of Ireland has been diverted into the English ports, aad her native manufactures totally destroyed by partial legislation. This partial legislation could not have succeeded except by the divisions in the ranks of the Irish representation in Parliament; for miserably unequal as that representation is, in point of numbers, to a continued contest with the whole power of England, yet if it had held itself aloof, and not merged its individuality in both the English parties, it could have command- ed its own terms. The Irish people would have always been in a position to enforce an observ- ance of their rights, and no ministry would have dared to insult or oppress them. Up to the time of the formation of the Irish con- federation, the system of place-begging was largely practised. Wherever the influence of that body is now felt, the candidates for election to Parliament are required fo pledge themselves against. asking place for themselves or others. The principle has taken deep and extensive root; and notwithstanding that its advo- cates have been bitterly denounced by the Conciliation Hall Association, yet of the whole number of repealers elected, one half are pledged against place-begging, and many who are not repealers are also pledged to ask no favor of the Minister. This great change has been wrought in little more than twelve months; and an evidence of the success of the manly and independant principle upon which the confederation is based, is found inthe fact that Mr. Austey, an English gentleman of great ability, who has been returned for Youghal, has avowed himself an adherent. Meanwhile, the Conciliation Hall repealers are furious at the success of the Confederation, and at every meeting indulge in bitter and acrimo- nious invective on its members. They are pledged to beg place; and one of them, Mr. Rey- nolds of Dublin, not more than a week after his | election, confessed-that he had already made application for a situation for one of his friends. | Mr. John O’Connell is at the head of this sec- | tion of the party.

The gentleman has neither abil- | ity nor force of character, nor indeed one single | quality to fit him for so important a station, and | nothing but the btind fanaticism of faction could ever have produced a movement in favor of his | elevation. | The anti-place-begging principle has acquired ; 80 much strength, that the Morning Chronicle, at | present the ministerial organ, declares that it is | useless any longer to count upon the support of | Tepe n Parliament, and pronounces against acontinuance of the system of purchasing re- peal votes by the bestowal of place. It declares | that ‘‘the re-establishmeat of any such con- nexion between the whigs and the repealers as | that which at one time existed between the for- | mer and O’Connell, seems to become, from day to day, less practicable;” and it netices the fact that even Mr. Maurice O’Connell, at alate meet- ing of the association in Conciliation Hall, had evinced some anxiety to clear himself and his friends of the imputation of being allies of the | ministers. This affords strong proof of the | prevalence of independent principles in Ireland. | Every man imbued with liberal feelings must look with strong interest to the success of the Trish Confederation.

Mepicat DeraRtment or THE ALMs Hovss.— We are very glad to see, that at arecent meeting person may meddle with politics without any detriment to amy one save himself 5 but every one knows that a political doctor is rarely overburthened with practice, as people are natu- rally shy of intrusting their lives to a person who spends his time in pursuits totally foreign to that profession which is to save them from death. It has hitherto been a blot upon our pub- lic hospitals that mere politicians were reward- ed with stations in them, which required great professional acquirements to fill in a proper manner. Now, however, this blot is removed, and we believe that henceforth these institutions will be conducted in,the very best manner, and, what is quite important, at no greater cost to the city than they have formerly been. The bill authorising the change was sent back from the Beard of Assistants to the Board of Aldermen, to obtain the concurrence of the latter in some trifling amendments made to itby the former. Three were concurred in, and other amendments made which are to be sent back to the Board of Assistants for their concurrence. We trust there will be no unnecessary de- lay in doing t! When it is once settled, the present Common Council will have reason to be preud of having accomplished a most important and meritorious piece of municipal reform. Movements or GENneral TayLor.—We learn that a letter has been received in town from Gen. Taylor’s camp, which states that the old General was to have asked for leave of absence on the 16th ult.

Ex-President Tyler and lady arrived in town yesterday on their way South, and are at the residence of Mrs. Gardiner, Lafayette Place. ‘Theatrical and Musical. Panx Tueatae.—In consequence of Miss Brienti’s in- disposition, the opera of the ‘Favorite’ was, last night, withdrawn from the boards of the Park Theatre, and the “Hunchback” substituted, with the excellent oast in which it has before been performed, of late, at this house; Mrs. G. Jones as Julia, Mr. Bass as Master Walter, Mr. Dyott as Sir Thomas Clifford, Mra. Abbott as Helen, Mr. Heild as Master Modus, &c. The afterpiece announced in the bill was “Ways and Means.” To-night we are to have Sheri0an’s comedy of the “School for Scandal,” with the new farce of ‘Love in Livery,” in which pieces the whole strength of the company will be brought out. It is a good bill, and will be spiced with two overtures by the orchestra.

Such was the enthusiasm of the tremendous audience which crowded the large hal of the Tabernacle, that we saw handkerchiefs wavin; sweet lips shouting, and delicate hands clapping, with sort of rage. Sivori and Herz yever played better; they exceeded every thing we have before heard them achieve; Indeed, thelr performance waa the perfvetion of skill and taste Sivori, in the admirable gem of “La Cam >” which we have have heard often performed by the famed Paganini, bi it to our remembrance that great and celebrated .

Fashion, ‘aged, by Trustee. out of Bounetao’ Biue—rider Notwithstanding the lowering appearance of the morn- ing, yesterday, the roads were crowded at an early hour with vehicles of all descriptions, and with pedestrians in- numerable, The attendance was great, and the excite- ment most intense, There could not have been less than ten thousand to fifteen thousand persons present on the occasion. A numberof fashionable and respecta- ble ladies were in attendance, which reminded us of daysof yore. The stands were all crowded, the enclo- sure well filled, and the house tops adjacent, and even the chimneys, were covered with spectators. Aware of the great interest existing throughout the community to learn the result of this race, and the anziety of our Southern readers to have the particulars as quickly as possible, we yesterday arrangeda special express, 60 that the curiosity of the public might be gra- tified at the earliest moment. Our express reached this office inabout thirty minutes after the termination of the contest, and we immediately issued the intelligence in our evening edition of the Herald, in tims for the mails North, South and East. The condition of both horses seemed excellent, and the appearance of Fashion, in particular, had improved ma- terially within a few days. So sanguine were her friends ofher success, that two to one was offered on her, with more offerers than.takers ; but at the start, 100 to 30 was the direction in which the financial magnet pointed. She appeared, however, to exhibit « want of hor usual energy during the first heat ; and it is provable that the severe exercise she underwent inftraining, during the past few days, had not been without its effects; to which might be added her age, being nearly eleven years old. Be that as it may, abe certainly did not run as formerly; and her numerous friends were chagtined and disap- pointed at the result, many of them being heavy losers. Passenger, also, looked extremely well, and high bopes were entertained that his performance on this occasion, would establish his reputation as the best four mile horse in the land; and they were not disappointed. ‘This Fashion bas changed, after having been the Fashion for the last six years; and Passenger is now the champion ot the turf; and we hope he may long prove himself worthy that high honor. After the usual preliminaries had been gone through with, the bugle sounded to horse; and with great prompt- ness they were in readiness. First Heat.—Fashion took the lead, at the start, by @ length or so, and increased the distance farther to the quarter. Down the back stretch they retained that po- sition, at no Cre rate of speed. In this way they con- tinued roun lower turn, and up thestretch Pas- senger closed somewhat on the mare on nearing the stand. This position was maintained all the way round the second mile, each under a hard pull. they passed the stand on the third mile, the Southern gelding was a trifle closer to the mare than before. Atthe half mile pole on this mile he ran cloge to her, but shook him off immediatlely, increasing her pace. pro! bly wishing to test his utmost speed, and ascertain, if possible, ite duration. He, however, would not allow himself to be treated so lightly, and soon resumed his former position. They passed the stand for the | last mile, Fashion a length ahead. So they ocon- tinued down the back stretch. where their pace be- came much accelerated. Passenger passed Fashion at the half, and took a position about « length in front, which he held, and they came on the home stretch, the gelding having the inside. Herethe mare made a des- perate and vigorous effort to pass him, Passenger, how- ever, was teo much for the Northern mare, and he led home under @ bard pull, in7:453%. ‘The efcitement at the close of this heatiwas beyond all bounds, and the en- thusiasm of the friends of Passenger increased every moment, as the time of the second heat approached, and 75 to 100 was offered on him—but the betting generally was about even.

As they d tho stand on the fourth and last mile Passenger began to ush her, and going round the upper turn, which is the ost ascending portion of the track, he made a brush, and neared her at every bound.
