Canales again Defeated, ke, ke. &e. Puttapztrata, Dec. 3, 1847 Two back mails are received at Petersburg. The latest due has failed; at least, none had reached Baltimore last evening. The telegraph is broken from Washington to Philadelphia. The mail brings New Orleans papers of the 25th. The Picayune of the 24th announces the arrival of the steamer Alabama, which left Vera Cruz onthe 18th, with dates from the capital to the 8th, whieh are five days later. The news is interesting and important. Maj. Gen. Quitman, Gen. Shields, Colonels Harney, Garland, Andrews, Morgan, Ramsey, and Burnett; Major Dykeman, and Lieuts. Por- ter and Sweeney, of the New York Volunteers, with Passed Midshipman Rogers, and George Wilkins Kendall, arrived inthe Alabama. Also, numerous other gallant officers. Maj. Gen. Quitman leaves Mexico under or- ders from Gen. Scott, that this much distin- tinguished and most efficient officer proceed to the United States, and report personally or by letter fo the War Department; that since his pro- motion no permanent assignment of a division has been awarded to him, aud the object of his return is to seek this. Captain Hill’s company, at Rio Frio, and Gen Lane’s, at Puebla, had been active in ferreting out the haunts of the guerillas. There has been but little annoyance since the affair at Huamant- la and Atlisco. . El Republicano, published at the capital on the 4h, says that a sufficient number of members had arrived at Queretaro, on the 1st November, for the transaction of business. A letter from Queretaro direct, announces that Congress had organized on the 2d November, and that Senor L, Jos Marial Eodey,a deputy from Guanaxuato, had been selected President, and Senor D. Jos Marial Hernandes, a deputy from Durango, was elected Vice-President. A letter from an English gentleman in Mexico, dated at the capital, 8th November, says, thet although much confidence is felt in the acting President and Vice President, and Congress, who are favorably disposed for peace, it is much feared that Cumplido, of Guadalaxara, will be eleeted President, ad interim, of the republic, instead of Herrera or Pena y Pena. The health of Herrera was precarious, but improving. Some say that Elorriaga will receive a majority of votes for President, ad interim, while others are divided between Herrera, Almonte, Geme- seales, and Rosio. It was reported at Vera Cruz that Gen. Lane had another brush with Gen. Rea, near Puebla, and routed him entirely. All was quiet at Perote when the train came through. General Patterson was still at Jalapa, suffering somewhat, but recovering. General Cushing’s command was three miles beyond; the entire force in the vicinity being about 3000. 2 Colonel Hays left for Puebla, on the 13th, escorting Major Polk and Mr. Smythe, bearer of despatches. The report that Padre Jarauta had sent a commissioner to General Patterson, is confirm- ed. It is said that Jarauta has gone towards Queretaro, his force completely broken up. Maj. Gen. Butler arrived at Vera Cruz on the 17th, and was received with military honors. From 2000 to 8000 troops arrived there on the 17th and 18th. Gen B. was to march to the capital in a fortnight, with 6000 troops. fWhat was left of the division of Gen. Quitman, at the capital, had been incorporated with the divisions of Generals Worth and Twiggs; the Pennsylvania and New York volunteers, with the former. Nothing positive is known of the whereabouts of Santa Anna. Many believe he is secreted near Vera Cruz, waiting an opportunity to slip off in a Britis). steamer. The Arco Iris, of the Mh, states that he had arrived at Orizaba with fifteen hundred ragged followers, but gives no hints of his future movements. ™The American Star, published at the capital, on the 8d, says that a communication for Mr. -Trist had been received from Queretaro, but the substance had not trangpired. The Picayune of the 2th, received by our overland exprese, says that a national salute was fired on the previous day at New Orleans, in henor of Gens. Quitman and Shields, and other distinguished officers. The Genius of Liberty has stopped its edition, and its editor is in prison. A revolution has broken out at Guadalaxara in favor of the election ot Farias to the Presidency. A sanguinary engagement ensued between his troops and a mob headed by priests. In the action Gen. Ampudia and many others of Farias’s party were killed. The church party was victorious. Paredes is at Tulacingo, and has openly pro- Price Two Cents, nounced in favor of monarchy, seconded by the garrison at Mazatlan. Some of the Mexicans have still an unquenchable hatred for the Ame- ricans, and express no desire for peace. The Mexican Congress at Queretaro has re- moved to Morelia to be rid of the military, by which it is overawed. Geng. Rea and Santa Anna, with a brigade, are at Orizaba, intending to attack the next train. Bustamente has gone to Queretaro, and has a force ef five thousand men at his command. Canales was encountered near the capital by a small American torce, and defeated, with some los [From the New Orleans Picayune, Nov. 24 ] ‘The steamship Galveston sailed from Vera Cruz with the Alabama. on the evening of the 18th inst , to touch, we believe, at Tampico.

A single glance at these poor fellows, who have #0 much for their coun- try, will convince any one of the absolute and immedi necessity of providing some retreat for them in their adversity. Even the government makes better provisions for its siek,dieabled and worn out soldiers than our own Three of those who started on the Alabama, Hen! Kain of the 8th U. 8. Infantry, Martin Costolow, 2d 8. Artillery, and Richard MoManus of the 2d Penns: vania Volunteers, died on the passage over. The bodies of the two latter were consigned to thesea on the third day out; the former was brought here for interment. in connection we cannot but speak of the kind and unremitting exertious of Dr. Edwards, a surgeon of the navy, but who has been acting with the Marines in Mex- ico. During the passage over from V: Crus he was constant im his attentions to the sick at yunded, ad- io medicines and dressing their wounds by day aswell as by night The poor fellows to whom he has been so attentive will certainly never forget him. The greattrain, raspy ‘Abapta = | like 600 wagons, left the city of Mexico on No and arrived at Vera Cruz on the 15th, without molestation or hindrance saves few. shots fired at it from the hills at Rio Frio. This ‘ef that plsce it was found that the bridge had been taken up, and that the trees on eithe: of the road for miles had been felled acrose; but rge crowd of the Indians in the vicinity were at once set to work cutting them out, and the Ce pee to the train was of but short duration. After the American army passed in August, so confident were the Mexieans of achieving @ complete triumph, they placed all these obstructions in the road to cut off retreat. The sequel shows how much they were disuppointed. Aa the advance of the train neared San Martia, a few hundred of Gem Rea’s illeros were seen scampering out of the place as fast as their horses would carry them. They did not even stop to fire a shot, although the guard to the train hardly consisted of a man to each wagon, and this was almost the only glimpse at tho enemy attained on the entire route down. Gen. Lene, at Puebla, bas been active in ferretting out the haunts of the guerilleros, and since the affairs of Huamantls and Auisco they have been of but little annoyance, save to their own unfortunate countrymen. On the 34 Nevember—the second out from Mexi- oo—a courier of the emy was ired with let! from Atlieco, Oriaaba, Tehuacan, and other plac Among them was a precious document from Santa An: himself, in which the great man says, that just as he had laid all his pl for attacking Perote, and just as they were matured in a way that must have inevi- tably resulted in the recapture of the noted castle from the hands of the infamous Yankees, he received the orders from vhe supreme government to turn over the command of the army! Deceltful and fullot trickery to the very last. Whats pity he had not communicated his well matured plans to his successor, 10 that might have oarried them out, All the oaptu: would go to prove that the inhabitants in the mn of Puebla and Orizabs are completely dispiri and broken down. Onw of the writers intimates thet the governors of the different States wore to meet at Quere- taro onthe 10th of the present month, to take into qonsideration the best interests ef the nation, but we mow not what reliance to place in the statement. We have sald that the latest news from the city of Mex- ico was upto the 8th inst. On the 16th a private ex- press arrived at Vera Cruz with intelligence up to that date. El Movi or Republi: ano of the 4th inst , enya that on the let a sufficient number of members of Congress Teas, and that on the following day they would pschatty r) ing da: open the session. ee ee Later letters direct from Queretero announce that ee ony was organised on the2d of November. Senor D, Jose Maria Godoy, Deputy from Guanajuato, was elected President of Congress, and Senor D. Jose Maria Hernandez, Deputy from Ducango, Vice President. The following extract of a letter from an English gon- tlemanin Mexico, to his friend at Vera Cruz, gives late news from Queretaro. It is dated at the capital on the 8th November; “I have hardly any news from Que- retaro. The administration has Voom foolishly making several premature efforts towards effecting areform in the army, thus making aan enemies for itself; and al- though much contdeace is felt in the acting President and Vice President of Congress, who are favorably dis- posed towards peace, it is much feared that Cumplido, of Guadalaxara, will be elected President ad interim of the Republic instead of Herrera or Pi n, Our present Chi @ Affai course of a week for the new seat of go' but the Lord only knows how long it will be be American expedition may make it necessary fo: tollow the locomotive capital of Mexico somewhe As one of our new correspond: friend has hit upon a capitel 1 the Mexican government the “lecomctive With the reinforcements now going forward to General nd with a vigorous prosecution of the war, it is an likely her Britannic Majesty's gove ment will have to make a table allowance for the exponses of Mr. Thornton’s stable.

The health of Gen. Herrera, which bad been very pre- carious at Queretaro, was improving at last dates, and tue strongest hopes were enterained of his entire recove- ry.

The entire force of Gen. Lane at Puebla, not including the small command of Childs, is about three thousand men. We believe that Col. C. is to go up to the capital with the great train. All was quietat Peroté and the neighbourhood when the train came through. At Le Hoya not a night of an enemy was seen as Col Harney came along. The 13th infantry is stationed at the National Bridge, a part of the Georgia troops at San Juan, some sixteen or eighteen miles from Vera Cruz. The road all the way to the city of Mexico will soon be safe for the small- est parties If @ statement in the arco Iris is to be oredited, the members ot the Mexican Congress have determined to hold their sessions st Morelia, the ancient Valladolid. ‘The same paper gives a rumor that the Mexicans intend gathering all their forces to attack the next large train going up. If Lieut. Col. Johnstone, of the voltigeurs, goes get in command of the escort, they will not make much by annoying him Com. Perry was to rail in the Mississippi the day after the Alnbama left, for Alvarado, Tabasco, Laguna and Campeachy. Yucatan requires close watching, and per- haps the pres: nt movement of the Commodore has some- thing to do with the inhabitants of that province. An immense mail came down with the train from the city of Mexico, and both day and night our active post- master at Vera Cruz was bosy in setting it to rights It was the first opportunity the officers and men of the invading army had had for months to communicate with their friends, and every one improved it. ‘The weather at Vera Cruz was excessively hot, and there was still ocoasionally a case of yellow fever. A tolerably brisk norther sprung up a few hours after the Alabama sailed, which would clear the air and improve the bealth. Capt. Biscoe was on the 18th instant, elected lieute- nant Colonel of the Louisiana Battalion—a most excel- lent selection and one which has given general satisfac- tion. The companies of Capts. Lewis and Besancon are at Puebla, the latter now under Lieut. Waters. as Capt. B. is on the way home for short time. The battalion has suffered considerably, and has been of great service. [From the N. O. Delta, Nov. 24 ] letters from our correspondent “ Mustang” at the 0 the 8th inst. Congress was still in sea- Queretaro at the latest dat A rumor was pre- valent that the members were about to quit Queretaro, nd assemb! city of Morelia. Speaking on this subject, the Arco Iris of the 18th inst. says: “The members of the Mexican Congress have deter- mined to assemble in the city of Morelia (the ancient Valladolid). now capital ol the State of Michoacan. It appears that at Queretaro they were always threatened ae new revolution, and, therefore, they wanted a safe place to deliberate with all the independence and free- dom that they require.”” The sawe night in which the American train halted at Tejuapalto, Gen. Rea was encamped at Ujo de Agua, ‘@ place on the road, which is about twenty miles from Perote; but Rea did not dare to attack the Americans, although he had been reinforced with all the cavalry of Gen. Alvares Of the social intercourse between the Mexicans and the Americans at the capital, the American Star of the Sth inst. says :—* We have taken repeated occasions to express our gratification at the evidences, which every day presents, that the Mexican people are fast learning to entertain a more just appreciation of the American character. They evince « dirposition to do justice to those who have been calumniated, and to extend tothem the courtesies of life. We are speaking rather of the intelligent and cultivated portion of the citizens.than of those who give no tone to society, and exert no influ- ence upon it. Intercourse between the former and educated Americans is fast increasing. Whether at the theatre or in the streets, itis getting to be no uncommon thing to see an American gentleman by the side of a Mexican or Spanish lady, showing her that attention and ccurtesy which are the characteristics of the inter- course between ladies and gentlemen in every part of the United States. We say, werejoice at those evidences of kindly and friendly feel! on the part of the intelli- gent people of the city.” [Correspondence of t 0. De Crty or Mexico, Nov. 8, 1847. We are all at a perfect stand, and anwously awaiting the disposition of our government. The city is much more quiet than it has been for many years; indeed, it ia aa well regulated ‘as any city in any country. The only difficulties occurring sre caused by an oocasional drunken soldier falling in with the leperos at night, which usually result in the assassination of the solvier. Many of the families who left during the siege, are now returning to their homes. The wounded are recover- ing, and the general health of the army is . Day before yesterday the archbishop paid a visit to Gen. Scott. ‘He was received with marked distinction by the General-in-Chief, and I should not be surprised 1! the General's affability and style of conversation, some- what pleased him, at least for the moment. It 1 absolutely impossible to conjecture what course the politics of this country will take. ‘The discordant factions are jarring, each jealous lest the other should conclud» # peace, and he leftin power. The democrats (puros) have been endeavoring, for many years, to break down the privileged establishments of the church and military, and are now striving to accomplish their object through’us. For that reason they are striving to pro- long the war, and prevent, by sowing the seeds of dis- cord and anarcoy, the present party ip power from taking apy measures that may lead to a peace — Sevor D. Luis de la Ros, Minister of Foreign Re- lation, has called @ meeting of the governors of the several States, for the purpose of mying whether they are in favor of prolonging the war; and if they sre, that they sball pledge themselves to furnish the neocasary men and supplies to prosecute it. ‘The meeting was in- tended to have taken place some time thismonth; bat, in anticipation of it, some of the gevernors of different ‘States have visited the government at Queretaro, and returne to their homes, takiog acti port of the present government, w! sirous of concluding a peace. El Progresso, the State paper of Guanajuato, of Oc- tober 31, says, “ it has been assured that the ver nor intends making a peregrination to the different towns of the State, for the purpose of making 6 hes to the peopie, in order to excite aspirit of peace, which his exceliency says has already commenced to re- vive.’ The Bishop of Guadalajara also recognises the government of Pena y Pena and avows his determina- tion to give it his earnest support. The States of Vera Cruz and Osjaca have also made a similar determina- tion. With this additional support, one would be led to belie t, the present purty in power would be enabled to pursue whatever policy they might please; but there is no little confidence to be placed in anything the Mexi- cans aay, that there is always room for doubt. At last they have been enabled to get # meeting of Congress at Queretaro, which assembled on the 2d of this month, and are already beginning to make demonstrations towards revolution, which seems to be the universal means taken by the weaker party to overthrow the stronger. ‘I'he Pena y Pena government, it appears, will have to contend with the friends of Santa Anna andthe Pures. The former is endeavoring to rally the old army in his favor, and the latter exerting themselves to prevent the govern- ment from doing anything at all. The election of President has been postponed; when it comes on, Complido will likely be the candidate of the Puros and of the Moderates. I think it will lay between Pena y Pena, Godoy and Hernandez. Almonte, who stood prominent & nett time since, being, for the resent, apparently dropped. Pianta Ana has written another address to the Mexi- eons from Tehuacan ; and although he has been stripped of every vestige of power by the constitutional govern- ment, still he ranks himself as President, ad interim, and eneral-in-chief of the army.

You will by it be able to form some idea of the move- ments at the present seat of government. A few days since had the news of the death of Gen.

The principal matter now engrossing public attention—at least that of our business m-n—is the rapid advance to this city of the ‘train’ from the city of Mexico. It isin command of Col.

The new comers seem rearcely to have commenced operations yet, and will not, it is supposed, until the sutiers come down whose supplies have been exbansted in the late campaign. A fellow citizen of yours, Mr. Deperu, who went up with Gen, Soott as sutler some months azo, arrived here this morning. He, in company with four other persona, left the city along with the train, but parted company with it at Paebla, from which point they started “on their own hook,’’ came over the mountains, thereby shorten- ing the journey considerably, and report that they did ‘mot see on the entire route which they travelled aboves dozen of the guerillas. In fact, every one who has arrived here from above lately, reports theroads as being remarkably quiet.

It must be remembered, though, that the travellers were Mexi- cans. The one I spoke of, however. speaks English, hay- ing been educated in the United 8 peaks very warmly of the new state of affairs , and seems to be of opinion ‘new era is about to dawn on his unfortunate and much ill-used native country.

(From the American Star, Nov. 6 } The movements of this individual appear to be wateh- od with a graat deal of interest by a large portion of the Mexicans. His sudden passage from Cuba to Vera Crus was somewhat inexplicable, and his escape from the lat- ter city still more so. The next we hear of him is, that he is in the vicinity of thiseity, and sald to be seriously indie) id. This ‘in is contradicted, and now we find him addressing his countrymen in regard to the pre- sent state of affairs and the future prospeot of the repub- lic. His known monarchical principles make him an ob- ject of much suspicion among all friends of the republic, ‘and we are not surprised to find the leading journals of Mexico loud in his condemnation. For instance, El Movridiano of Sunday last, in announcing that he has issued an address to his fellow citizens, in which he gives, at some length, the rvasons which induced him to return to the republic, speaks of him in somewhat severe terme. It says that “a general, who ought to have been engaged in defending his country from foreign invasion, hastturned hisback and his arms upon ber, is un- worthy of being employed "by any administration.— What security can such s man offer to the nation, he himself beidg the main cause of her present troubles? None. Because he who has failed to do his duty once, will fail » hundred times.” This is severe language, and may be merited Certain it is, there is a strong feeling manifested against Paredes by the prominent journals of the republic. His monarchical prejudices ‘are probably the ground of this, and we doubt whe- ther such @ man is destined to bring order and regulari- ty out of the chaos and confusion which surround the republic. He will hardly have the power, in present ponition of parties in the republic, even if he had the in- clination. We hope some master-spirit may yet arise who, looking to the best interests of the Mexican repub- lio, will exert the energies of his mind to restore her to the ition she once occupied iu the eyes of the world. This can only be done by doing h justice: in the firat place, to the people ofthe United States, whose go- vernment. while its army has been everywhere victorious, has yet, witha spirit of great m»gaanimity, made honor- able morc ns of peace. But this is not a subject upon which we propose to enlarge at this time, . THE WOUNDED. We are pleased to see so many officers and soldiers getting out into the street, having sufficiently recovered from their wounds to do so. It is strange, indved, that some who were slightly wounded in the leg or arm died from the effects of the wound, whilst others shot through the body and in the head survived, and are tast recovering. There is something about it which we cannot understand Capt. Scantlend, an old friend of ours who left the let Tennessee segiment te take command of s company in the new levy,was shot through the head, the ball entering near one eye and oe out ‘at the opposite temple. None thought he wou'd live a day, and now we understand he is not only alive, but has made his appearance in the streets on foot. ANOTHER ACCOUNT OF THE CAPTURE OF THR MEXI- CAN CAPITAL. [From the Phila. Pennsylvanian, Deo, 3.) The following letter was v:citten by a Mexican on the day our to9pe entered the capitalof hiscountry, It ap- pears in the Havana Diario, and was translated for the Pennsylvanian by ® most accomplished lady. It was written evidently under great excitement of mind, and tain opinions in regard to our troops, which while it presents facta and incidents, ew to us, as we presume they will be to the reader : Mexico, Sept. 27th, 1847.—In concluding my last ac- count respecting the events of this country, { epoke of thearmistice; but onthe 6th this was broken without the 48 hourr’ of previous notice, as it was stipulated, be- cause Gen. Scott addressed furious note to Santa Anna, omplaining of pretended infractions of the armistic and threatening it he did not obtain satisfaction and a reparation—for which he wculd wait until the middle of tho following day- he would consider the armisti. concluded from that time. Sants Anna re ed the note on the 6th, at 11 o’clock, and with dignity and decision he immediately proceeded to take proper positions, to wait for the attack of the ivory d onthe nextday, The enemy, a8 expected, presented themselves, reconnoitered the positions before Chapultepec, and that day there was but little firing between the advanced guerillas. On the following day, the 8th, the enemy commenced the attack at daybreak, the firing continuing until the evening and were forced to retreat with considerable loss, whic! probably amounted to more than one thousand men out of combat. This assault was a very fierce one; but as usual,the troops of the line did the least; only some of the corps of national guards, particularly the battalion of Mina of this city, and others of Oajaca, fought brave- ly, having suffered aiso considerable losses; among others their chiefs, Col. Don Lucas Balderas, and Gen. Don Antonio de Leon. The North Americans were conse- quently in a bad way, for they did not mal attack for three day-, the 9th, 10th and 11tb; forgot to say that, owing to the cowardice of the ry, whose chief refused to obey the order of attacking the best opportunity was lost of defeating the enemy. We have Bad more than five thousand horse in the vicinity of this city for more than forty days, and, what will appear inoredible, they have all left without having done the least injury to the enemy! On Sunday, the 12th, the enemy made attack on Chapultepec, with three batteries, at different points; the castle de- fended itself all that day without great results, the firing being principally from cannon, ‘The following day, Monday, 13th, at daybreak, the firing again commenced. At eight o'clock the firing from the fort was very weak, and at nive the columns of the enemy finally penetrated the works and gave the attack. Our troopsran away, and all was confusion. — The enemy taking possession of that pass at about ten o'clock, and pursuing their victory, fell upon the garitas, two of which they took possession of at about dark, at which time I returned home, rather in # hurry, among the crowds of people who were flying from the enemy, who were already in San Cosme. The firing continued for some time, but I did not leave my house, and when Larose the next morning early, Tuesday, 14th, | found that Santa Auna, the government and troops, had all left at midnight, without having taken any measures for the safety of the inhabitants, and all that day we did not know if there existed such a thing as a govern- ment. At about seven o'clock | #aw from my balcony that the enemy were entering the city in small groups, some with arms, some without some ou horseback.others on foot ; some in wagons with escorts, others without, so that I could rcarcely realize what passed before my eyes. The inhabitants appeared dismayed, but after a little while, w vewt fed them had already passed the popuiace begin to throw stones at seme Ube wagons, and there were things thrown from the roofs, which did no little injury. At the same time, I heard firing from different quarters of the city, without knowing from whom it proceeded; but I afterwards heard that it was the po; py some ofthe National Guards, who reall wanted to finding themselves without » it could bat warfare without system or order, in short, this anarchy lasted the 14th, the 15th, and part of the 16th. On the 15th, a party of Ianoers ‘ran through the city pursuing the enemy ; they were, without doubt, some detached guerilins, The enemy certainly met with some losses in the streets by this irregular warfare ; I saw two wagon loads ot dead, and some wounded, from behind the biinds of my balcony, At the corner of the street, at ten or twelve paces from my house, | saw the enemy thone two daya, firing without interruption at the Mexicans, who, from some other corner, fired at them ; so much so, that the strong concursion of a can- non which they had, broke « pane of glass in one of my windows. | also saw them break iato the neighboring stores, by firing, and with pick-axes and crow-bars, amd rob them of all they could lay hands on: and | also saw many of them quite drunk with the liquors they had found in the stores, Scenes like thene were Tepeated in different parts of the city. | never before had witnessed suchidisorder I oan assure you that I did not feel at all safe, and after God, all my hopes rested on my knowledge of their language, which did not only ‘ove of service to me, but to many of my neighbors me say that these skirmishes must bave cost the enemy at least 2000 men; but I suppose, although with- out any foundation for it, thet it could not have been more than half that number. Notwithstanding, it is shameful that they had not all found their graves here ‘The appearance of these people when they entered the city, really astonished me, for they looked more like ban- ditti or pirates, than like soldiers; I could soarcely be- lieve my own eyes when | saw them about the streets with- out arma, without offcers,and in uch disorder. | Having heard so much of the cleanliness of the people of the Unite States | expected to nee an army, though small, in decent uniforms, good order, and loo! rey tae It {s easy to see that thelr discipline consists im their obedience, in the exactitude of the officers in fulfilling orders, and in the severity and cruelty, even, with which they punish those whom they see vacillate in the attack. Berides, think that thelr entering the city In so unmilitary & manner, was intentional on the part of the chiefs, who, without doubt, according to previous promises, chose to shut their eyes,o that the soldiers might pillage as anuch as they were willing to; for | saw soldiers loaded with booty at every hour of the day, without fear of their officers Now, SL aappese, they will want to exouse themselves on the plea of the hostility they met with in the city. However, all this confusion is now at an end ; all is quiet, business is going on, and confidence ia estab- Mshed. With all this we have no mails, nor is there any commanfeation between this and Vera Cruz. Santa Anna has announced, it is said, that Con gress will moot at Queretaro, and it is not yet known who will be elected President. It is said that the coalition of the middle States have proposed Don Manuel Cosio for the presidency of Zacatecas, and thet they, will not submit to any othergovernment. The devil only knows what will come of all this. ‘The official documents that passed in the negotiations for peace were published here; and you would be aston- ished to see how well conducted they have been by Henry Clay vs, the Liberty of the Press. (From the Philadelphia Ledger, Deo. 3.) » Reronrens.—In reply to some remarks rn newspaper, about « tel hic report peech, the New York Herald takes ground t to be maintained by every journal fa the ‘e do not interfere fa its quarrel with its Personally, they have our free the K ilkenn: other oats; for personally, we care not whe ie who er which is which among journals or journalists, But we do care something about what is what in principles end doctrines, and therefore defend the right and oppose the wrong, without to source or authorship; and im the case before us, the doctrine of the Herald is thorough- ly correct, and therefore receives our unanimous support. The following are the facts, or rather the statements of the parties. Before Mr. Clay began to , he re quested that he might not be reported, and told the re- porters that, they threw aside their pens, he would not proceed, All of them did so, exce; are- porter for the Herald, who seoretly took a sketch of the speech, and despatched it to New York by telegraph. The Western newspaper says that this secret report, made in disregard to Mr. Clay's request andthe under- standing of his hearers, was a theft, for which the re- eter deserved severe punishment, and for which, had @ been detected on the spot. he would have been severely beaten. The New York Herald says the when Mr. Clay mounted the rostrum to speak, he made his remarks publio property, and consequently gave to any reporter present @ right to publi them; and it adds some very cogent and just censures upon beatel euggestion cf'the Kentucky newspaper about, beat- ing the reporter The Herald is right. For several days.or rather weeks, before Mr. Chay speech was delivered, his intention to previa “_ lo ane Lay been announced by news- apers in Kentucky, and re) y newspapers hroughout the Union. This design ‘announced quite long enough for repetition in every American newspaper, and laimed widely eno: to reach every which o Union.

Many others placed on their baleo- nies a white flag—asa symbol of peace; but what was taoet remarkable, wat the immense number of Spanish flags that floated in Raat A street. Now you must not suppose that all wer ences of Spaniards, but even those who were the most opposed to this of our glo- ries, found it very convenient to place themselves,in the present emery: protection. Some of the flags have been tal y, but many still remain adorning the balconies. D. pe aM. STATE OF SANTA FE. (From the Santa Fe Republican, Oct. 2.] The whole population of the territory is not greater than that of many counties in the ofd States: and a much greater amount of wheat and corn is annually raised than any one, whose knowledge of the territory is limited to a road travel from the States to Santa Fe, has any conception of. To show that the territory is susceptible of improved and more extended cultivation, it is eneugh to state the fact, that acrop at least four fold that of last year is now growing and maturing. But the wheat crop here is as easily and abundantly produc- tive as inthe States. With the least possible labor, wheat not only in as great plenty but a superior quality to that of Missouri and other States,is produced. The flour is remarkably fine, and what is far better, there is a certainty of a crop every season. ‘The ordinary pests of grain, rust, mildew, &o., &o., do not afflict here. The agriculturist sows his seed, and in due time reaps a rich harvest. He hasno other care with it—the preparation of his ground Neing ottaosed by the simplest, rudest, and least available implement imaginable. The same is true of corn growing. In year from thistime, any Ame- rican citizen in Santa We will be able to eat habitually all ne piaate that are produced in the same latitudes in the Union. In grain growing, the tercitory has great ea- peels, not only im the soil that is now farmed, but om vast and rich bottoms and valleys that have not hitherto been cultivated on account of the Lpet cman bid the Indian tribes and their hostile inroads. More two-thirds of the richest and most beautiful portions are wholly neglected from this cause. In these parts are invited the adventure and enterprise of the American farmer. Within the last year, the demand and con- sumption of grain being unusually great, the price has been augmented, but mast the ensuing year be less, from anced production. Apart from the mineral re- ry where abounding, the first object for the in- ital thatatrikes the eye, is the manufac- preventit? The country is wonderfully adapted to the growth of sh The rich grasses that overspread the numerous fine leys—as sweet and nutricious in the winter as the su: mer—the absence of rain to corrupt and destroy their nourishing properties, leaving ouly the fibrot of the plant; an ‘superabundance of the without the trouble of cultur-, give New Mexico comparable advant for stook raising.

Even erritory suffi gen not sheared, and the woo! is whelly lost, The value is, from the superabundance of thesupply, very small. ‘Itcan be bought in any quantities for from four to cix cents a pound, and is, moreover, of avery good quality.

Upon this float he supported himself for about two hours and a half, evincing throughout, from all we can learn, « presence of mind, fortitude and hardi- ness almost incredible.

Mr. H. was first to discern the lights ot the Delaware propeller, as she was bearing down to the relief of those unfortu- nate beings, and announced the fact to those around him, at the same time exhorting them to holdout longer, and they would be resoued from their perilous situation. ‘Atthat time, he is sure there were many alive within the sound of his voice, and he is confident that in « few minutes afterwards, not a single one remained except the three who were saved. A lady, cabin passenger, drowned within reach of him, and she was among the last to yield to the king of terrors. The description which he gives of the burning wreok is awfully terrific. ‘The hull wass complete bed of flame, which, bursting from her sides at times, streamed far out on the waters, and then curled aloft till flame meeting flame, the com- bined current rushed madly upward till it seemed lost in the clouds.
