Edmund Burke, has become one of the most useful and interesting departments of the It was thought by some, and it was declared by many whig presses at the time when Mr: Elisworth was removed from the office of commissioner, that the usefulness and interest of the department would be in a great measure lost, as there was no other man in the country who could fill the office with the same extent of benefit to the country. ministration of Mr. Burke has completely shown that such was not the case ; and while it dimi- nishes in no wise the credit due to Mr Ells- worth, it also establishes the fact that he was not the only man in the country who could dis- charge the important duties of Commissioner of government. The Patent Office has now become a branch of the government, whose reports are looked for with as great an interest, b commuaity, as those of any other branch.

That the British legation here should be thus early apprised of the doings ef the Mexican government, seems to be strange, when it is Koown that the British agent in Mexico exercises an almost controlling iafluence on the Mexican government. If he had the confidence of the Mexican government to obtain a copy before it was rati- fied by either government, may it net well create a sus- picion that he has had considerable influence in dictat- ing its terms?

The correspondent alluded to wes of the impression that Gen.

[Correspodence of the New Orleans Picayune.] Pugsta, Jan. 21 —I wrote on the 17th inst. from Mext- 00, and informed you [ intended to accompany a secret expedition under the command of Gersral Lane, which, atthe time, was supposed to be intended to scour the ay of Mexico in quest of guerillas, and after giving it a thorough search, to march in direction of Santa Anna’s residence for the time being. The expedition, consisting of two companies of the 3d dragoons, under the command of Capt. Duperu and Lieuts Adde and Martin, a company of Mounted Rifles. commanded by Lieut. Claiborne, and four companies of Texas Rangers, commanded by Captains Roberts and D: itt ond Lieuts Tuckerand Evans, numbering in all, it 350 ad men,left Mexico on the morning of the 18th.

We arrived at the Vinta del Chalco about four o’olook in the morning, atter @ fatiguing march ot near thirty miles under a hot sun and over@ road oo- vered with dust. The next morning, crossing the mountains enclosing the vailey, we reached Rio Frio about nine o'clock, when information was obtained which led to the belief that guerillas were to be found between there and San Martin. About midway be. tween Rio Frio and San Martin, we met General \ sball, with the advance of his train. Some of his officers in command of the rear guard, reported that about two hundred guerilias had been fol- lowing them and threatening an attack the whole morniog. Turning from the road at the point where the guerillas were’ reported to have been last seem, Gen. Lane detached two companies of the command to pursue them, and ordered the remainder trival AND. ORI- Merriwether, ot to march on to San Marti ad ther The general made a circuit of rome in search of the enemy,and after being convinced the frut:lessness of the scout, marched on to San } tin, and there the whole command took up quarters for the night. From a very intelligent Belgian, at whose hacienda, while on the scout, we were very hospitably reosived, we learned the certainty that Jarauta was wounded in his affair with the rangers ia the valley of Mexico, but not no severely as was generally supposed The wouad, the Belgian informed us, was in the bridle arm, and was slight. Eight of Jaraute’s men were kill- ed, and several badly wounded. Early the next morn- ing the march was resumed in the direction of Puebla, and shortly after leaving San Martin, we met Colonel Miles, in command of the rear of Gen. Marehall’s train. by whom we were informed that Gen. Rea had been following him the whole of the previous day, with about three hundred men, but did not attack him. The oolo- nel had in his charge the largest army and merchant train in fs gg be to the number of men he had to pro- teot it, that has perhaps ever passed up the road, and if Rea continue i the pursuit, it is not improbable thet he may have attempted to cut of some portio» of train before it reached Rio Frio. The eolonel, howev. eb for him, aud if ens: the a: eran, ‘The general was received with the honors due to his rank, and the hearty cheers of the troops garrieoning the city, as he entered, manifested an enviable popularity.

Erwin, of the 6th Obio, being informed of the fact, net out in pursuit of the villains, with about fifty mount edmen. He came into San Martin the night that we were there, after penetrating the country twenty or thirty miles from the road, without succeeding in meet- ing the object of his search. Lieut. Lilly, of Captain Lewis's company of Louisiana mounted men, while on & scout the same day, met a party of guerillas a short dis- tance from this piace, in the act of attacking a party of travellers,and killed eighteen of them.

Ternvacas, January 23, 1848 —-All were a good deal earprised th ening we left Puebla, to find themselves on the National or Vera Crus road, end travelling in the direction of the latter city; for, so faras conjecture could point out ths utimate destination of th dition, after the information in relation to Ri quarter's being at Matamoras (De Puebla) guerillas being in the neighborhood of Puebia, thi rel supposition wes, that Res would be attec! that the general would go in search of the guerillas, reported to be between Puebla and Rio Frio, off th road.

At this place the general informed the officers that ho who ita An ‘ith abor immediate object now was to capture Sai he hed information, was at Teh hundred and fifty men. chieftain might not obtain information of the presence of our troops in this section of country, the general ordered every Mexican in the hacienda, and every one found on the rosd during the day, to be arrested and kept close until we left ia tae ovening. The order was strictly enforced, aad at about dusk the march for Te- huacan, distant nearly forty miles, was taken up, with the full hope that the wily Mexican would soon be with- in lng gi Shorly after leaving the hacienda, at a part of the road where it runs through a desp and nar- row cut, and before the moon rose, the general and his staff ridiag in @ivance, exme upon a party of mounted Mexicans, armed. before either saw the other, at the dis- tanos of twenty feet. The Mexicans, sight in numb: were instantly disarmed; but in th wer of them found ® carriage. from whioh steppad a Mexican with passport from General Smith to travel from Mexico to Orizaba and back, with an escort of eight armed 8.

Would that he had! Within eight or ten miles of Tehuacan, the guide re- ceived iuformatisn that Santa Anna was, without doudt, at that place.and had with him from one hun- dred totwo hundred mon. With renewed hope every man now spurred his “jaded steed,’ and on we went quick enough until within five miles of our goal, where ® halt of about half an hour was made, and tl lan of k and capture di-clsed by the Gansral to bis offi- ‘The party mounted ; orders were given to observe itrictest silence during the remainder of the mar The order was obeyed, you may depend ; for every had an intense anxiety to seoure the prise ahead.

Amid the romances ef scenery, the suggestion could not fail to present itself that we were only about three huudred and fifty strong; thet we were from eighty to an hundred miles from reiuforcsments, without infantry or artillery; that we were treading a part of the oountry which never before knew the presence of American arms, aud that the enemy might have had notice of our advance and collected a formidable force; but there was an abiding confidence in the sagseity, skill and bravery of the commander. At dawn we were withio halfa mile of Tehuacaa. The report of a solitary gun from the tewn, and the rapid passage of lights to and fro in the buildings next us, geve hope that the bird was about to be ea, tained the expectation of meeting an enemy. As the command came to the entrances of the town, thi and riflas dashed to the right nutes e glancing an eye On every side with the belief, and I think I may say with hope, that theenemy was on the house tops. The Rangers in the plaza, ina woment squads were galloping through every street, but no ene- my was to be found, aud in a few minut mortification to learn that tho great object of our had fled two hours before we arrived, and had taken the to Oxjaca, with an escort of seventy-five mounted The national flage hurg out from the resi- dences of foreigners, and white flags suspended from ths houses of the Mexicans in every part of the town, told that our approach was ren jahan vance, and it was with chegrin it was learned that the Mexican whose coach and escort was stopped shortly afterleaving the hacienda, sent by a short route across the mountains one of his servants to communicate to Santa Anna that American troops were on the road, and, as he believed, with the intention of capturing him. Had it not been for this treachery on the part of & man travelling under an American safeguard, the surprise would have been complete. The guide, a Mexi- can whose fidelity had been proved, after meeting th> carriege, wWhs uneasy during the remainder of the march, and was constantly urging the general to prese the command forward with greater rapidity ; but this could not bs done without risking the lors ef the men ‘nd horses who were most fatigued, a Weighty consi. deration in the position he was then in. It was sug. gested, on arriving in town and finding Santa Anne had fled, to press fifty or @ hundred feesh horses, and yursue him as long as there was a prospect of finding im; but the general wisely argued that the bird war alermed, end to pursue him through a country un- k a to our troops, and perfecily known to th+ euemy, and with the possibility, too, that the enemy’s forces might accumulate on the road to a number dan gerous to so small a body as could be mounted, would be seeking danger with scarcely a possibility of success in the grand object. The first feeling of disappointment baring in a great measure passed off, the publlo buildings aud suspicious private dwellings were searched, and it was a meagre sa- tisfaction to find in the quarters so recently occupied by Santa Annas, apart of his best military wardrobe, two of his costly canes, his field glass, and three tranks contain- ing his lady’s clothing. ‘This served, at all events, to show the chase was hot, and the departure hxsty.

During the day, the Ayuntamiento culled upon the general and exprevsed a desire that the American forces hould occupy the town until the termination of the war. The general told them it was not probable our troops would hold the place at present, but assured them of an occasional visit of our arms to protect the well disposed and punish those guilty of a disobedieace of the orders of the commander-in-chief. With this they went off, apparently satisfied. Several of the reepectabie citizens op presenting th 8, expreesed a similar derire, acd some went 80 far as to say they wished the permanent oo- cupation of the country. Among the latter class was highly eda ated and intelligent Mexisan, the owner of a mine in the vicinity, whose name I for! mentioning, lest its disclosure may injure him. He was evidently a man who sought the good of his country, and was eloquent in his exposition of the evils of o despotic, a cruel, and unstable government. “ desire,” said he, “to see the gramd plans of the United States consummated; | desire to see its laws and institations, its religious freedom, its rystem of general education, and its liveral commercial system, extended over the whole continent of North America.

The hacienda was thoroughly searched, but nothing subjact to seizure was found, and the command proceesed on through the valley, the greater part of the road, for six or eight miles, being rough and jagged, and over a naked lime stone rock, as had been ocoasionsily the case in the two preceding marches. It mast not be inferred, however, that because the road was a neked rock, the valley we were penetrating was barren Not #0; some fields of wheat, the only crop now growing, were as fine as was mn; and the wheat on Santa Avona’s groucd, in lar, was beautiful and rich in appearance.

In Jut 1847, Mrs. Hathaway pro- pored a vilt to her friends \n Warren, Maine, and her ee t age, te on band brought her and her child, two ton, and put them on board the Portland boat. In stead of going to Warren, however, Mrs. H. went to Shirley and Peterborough with Gabriel, passing for bis wife.

An Irish laborer, named William Eigan, omplered the Purapecrnia, Feb. 23, 1848- The Taylor Festival—Harrisburg Convention--- Remains of Major Twiggs, &c. The Buena Vista demonstration, last evening, was an enthusiastic affair; but, unfortunately, the speakers would every now and then make some allusion to Mr. Clay, and the oldifeelings brought into play by reminiscenses of the past among the whig phalanx, induced the most up- roarious applause, making the welkin ring. He is still the idol of the party, and his visit here will arouse the memories of those who have been his steadfast friends, and, perhaps, induce them to return to their first love. James Wotson Webb, Esq., in the course of some remarks, pre- vious to the close of the meeting, alluded, in de- precatory terms, to Mr. Clay’s Lexington speech in opposition to the war; butit aroused such de- cided marks of Gisapprobation, that the subject was quickly change To restore the good humor of the assemblage, Senator Barrow took the stand for the second time, and made a felici- tous speech. He was much applauded, and at the conclusion of his remarks the party broke up with cheera for Rough and Ready. The Taylor convention that met yesterday at Harrisburz, was attended by about fifty dele- gates, principally trom this eity, and composed of the old leaders of the native American party. The letter read from him before that body yester- day, was of more importance than that read at the Buena Vista festival last night, from the latter being dated only a tew weeks since. . The remains of Major Twiggs are to be in- terred with military honors, on Friday atter- noon, in a vault in St. Stephen’s church yard They are subsequently to be removed to Laurel Hill, where an approprtate monument will be erected. Political Intelligence. Wuic Detrecare to tHe Nationa Convention.— Thomas E. Franklin has ben chosen as delegate from Lancaster county to the whig national convention. The same meeting nominated Jobn Landis es Presiden- tial Elector. A resolution expressing confidence in Henry Clay, was followed, and of course qualified, by another, mentioning the claims ef Taylor, Scott, Crit- tenden, McLean and Webster. delegates moved to sirike out th lor from among the category of “well kaown whigs,”” be- cause he deciiued to disclose his political opinions; bat the motion was not submitted to vote. Devecatns To THE Pennsyivania Democratic State Coxvention.—The following delegates have already been chosen. From Somerset county, William Roddy; from Pike! county, Oscar H. Mott; from Clarion county, H. L. Diffenbach; and from the district composed of Clarion, Jefsrsoa and Venango counties, Seth Clover and George W. Zeigler, all of whom are either instruct- ed to vote for Buchai The delegates are known to be Buchanan men. In Crawford county, the delegetes chosen were Morrow B Lowry and James E. McFarland, Esq’s. They are not instructed. Mrcnican Democratic Detecates.—The Michigan Democratic State Convention which met on the 2d inst., appointed Edward H. Thompson, D.C. Whitwood, Le- ander Chapman, Alexander H. Redfield and Austen E. Wing, delegates to the Baltimore Convention. The elec- toral ticket is composed of the following gentlemen: Gov. John 3. Barry, L Mason, H. C, Thurber, W.,T. How- eli and Thomas ge Enporsing tur Utica Coxvention.—The fihany Ar- Fus of the 22d inst, saye:—Five of the 32 Senators, and 19 of the 128 members of the Assembly, met last evening and went th the performence of endorsing the Utica boliing meeting, and appointed a day, (September 13,] for a State convention at Utica, to nominate a Go- veraor and Lieut. Governor,and presidential! electors, in opposition to the regulsr demooratic electoral ticket, aes tosupport ths democratic national nominees. ‘he notice or call signified none of the objects of the meeting; but the regular democratic committee of the Assembly were correct in defining in advance its real purpore, although other objects were pretended by the wire pullers, and probably misled some of the small gathering to induce them to attend. Preston King, John ‘an Buren, and their satellites, who notoriously op- posed the democratic tickets st the last election, and contributed direotly to the success of the whigs, were on the ground, direoting all these factious movem: Tows Movements.—In the different towns of Lewis county, 7 whig and 6 loco-fooo supervisors have been elected; in Steuben county 13 whigs, and 17 loco focor, and one town yet to be heard from; in Schoharie county 4 whigsand 10 loco-focos: Jefferson county probably 11 whigs and 9 loco-focos. Agold mine has recently been discovered, as we read, near Tecumeeh, Michigan, It is found principally in ore mixed, though it is said, by those who have tested it, that it will yield 35 per cent. of the pure article. A few lumps have been found weighing from an ounce to an ounce and a half of pure gold. EEE i SEE MARITING INTELLIGENCE.
