I the night bad brought its tale of wonder fo my senses, day was 1o be ot less amazing. 'We were just cmerg- from & thickly set brushwood, planted upon the top the bill, wheu we saw oomxhnf toward us at full speed, on ir mustangs, half-a-dozen Mexican officers, attended by n-n.{ Jadies, their heads shaded by large-brimmed straw &. falling down in front and behind their heads.

La Garza, an Aul-tl&t’lm‘r of the General, who extended to me &il civilitie attention. Several otherofficers came in while 1 was there, actuated, no doubt, by a sentiment of curiosity ag well as of interest for my person, and the conversation assoon becamwe general. They spoke of the war then going on in the United States a8 of ‘an event in which they w persovally interested, praising highly Geus. Grant, Sh man, and other Federal officers, and making upon their Lflmn accurate remarks, and upon the issue of the con- ict, predictions soon justified by the turn military events assumed along the northern const of the Atlantic’ Ocean. Still what surprised me most was to hear them speak coolly of the scparation of Tumanlipas from Mexico, and of its annexation to the United States, considericg such an event as the only chanee for that State to recover poace and prosperity. 1t was not ccrtainly one of the lesst sur- prising incidénts of my travel to méet men pledged, arms 1n hand, to the defense of their country. apparently giving up the nvationality they were --ng-gui‘ in protecting, and talking of merging it iuto another greater and more prosperous. I could mnot help inferring fiom this that a nationality thus sacriticed by men pretending to be among its most loyal and devoted citi- zens was finally bound to perish ere 1ong, unless strength- ened and held l:ft’lhuru & unit by the strong hand of sowe disintercsted and friendly power, It was ulso evident from my conversation with Carvajal's officers, that they had given up all hopes of cstablishing a reg- ular_and stable government 10 Mexico short of & loan by the United States Government in men and money. Fifty millions of dollars and 30,000 well-armed and equipped men were, in their estimation, the indigpensable tnnllililllll by weuns of hwich this desirable result was to be reached. It was not long before Carvojal was compelled to modify his plan by the sudden arrival at Ozu- lvama of the French " column, under command of Col. Dupin. Compelled to renounce the occupation of that place in which the Chicf of the Liberals intended to build up his camp, he nlnwx-d at about 30 miles from it, in a kind of small, straglling villuge called 8an Bartolillo, con- sisting of mud-cabing, with palm-leaf roofings, ensc in orange and lime groves, and protected on its rear by a virgin forest. ‘The French soon marched to meet hini, but Carvajal, probably unwilling to risk battle in that fll e, decamped in the night, and took l::xitlon nine miles chind, in the village of San Antonio, Jocated in a hiliy conntry, with steep roads hardly accessible and guarded by guerrillas on horseback, It was at this place that Cur- ufnl waited for the French, He began to intrench him- self in the church—a dried stonebfilding of great strength —which he increased by the addition of a palisade four fect high made up of beavy blocks; behind the church, and commanding it, at a distunce of about 300 ards, was the cemetery, surrounded by a wall built with o) ltnmlm around it some private baildings com- pletely closed and defendod with loop-holes. Al around the fortificatioris brushwood growth, bebind which men could casily hide themselves and wait for the enemy with rfect safety, was spreading in every direction and’ mak- ng the defense of the place complete. In fuct, the only position from which it might have been successfully ai- tacked, was a swelling ground back of the cemetery; but beside its being carefully guarded by Carvajal's men, the distance from the village was tco great for the latter to run any risk from the Minié rifle, with which the ¥ n-nchdhnd been provided. The defense, as it may be seen, althongh rather Lurried up, had been as »hllfull’)' directed as ('il’('t‘llmmnlm would allow; it would have been more formidable still had not the Liberal army left in the rear five rified guns of Ameri- can wavufacture, which, in the precipitancy of the retreat from San Bartollilo, it was unable to carry along. This deficiency, however, was more than compensated by the adyantage of position and by the numerical superiority it enjoyed. Fortified as Carvajal was, his position was im- preguable. To these advantages he added that of baving & body of men superior to whut I had seen in most of the Mexican corps I visited afterward, and consisting of wvagueros, or Indian cattle drivers, of Texans, and of a few French deserters. The force he had gnthered at San Ap- tonio when | was there might have reached about 1,000 infantry and 200 cavalry. As I'was not particularly desirous lodplr'ivipule in the glory of defending San "Antonio, and of running the chances of being shut # in the place as long as the sicge lasted, I took leave of Gen. (‘nrrn{al and his officers, with many thanks for their kind attention and earnest prayers for their success. 1 gave to Antonio, my servant, who had resumed Lis oftice of Colonel in tho Liberal army, sn 0ld pair of hoots and a bowie-knife, the gift of which made Lim exceedingly bappy, for the poor fellow was barefooted No soouer was Antonio recognized than he wae sure pounded by this crowd of early visitors, who seemed to be and had 5o means to replenish his wardrobe.

They were submitted to the most rigid discipline, and were not permitted to stop even a minute to drink at the overflowing waters of a spring ou the way, although most of them were sulering from thirst, The officer in command, to whom I made a remark on that subject, informed me that he never allowed men in a state of perspiration to drink. In the second place, he was ot sure the spring had not been poisoned by the Liberals, Col. Dupin, to whom 1 was scon introduced, is s man between 40 and 50, of middle size, strongly built, with a hale and energetic countenance, Iiis breast is literally convered with decofations and medals due to his lo sersices, a8 well a8 to his merits and gallantry, He sp brietly, but to the point, any is every inch a soldi received me ‘mhw 'y, asked me what Cary a question which 1 could not of courso answer (and be un- derstood it with the chivalrie instinct of a soldier), and took leave of me by statiug that I could remain 1 bis comp as long o8 1 chose, **and that will not be long,” added he, with s smile, for 1 am going to attack Car- vajal to-morrow.” 1 could not restrain 4 movement of surprise at this extreme confidence, and thow ehit that if the Colovel had seen, #8 1 had, the defenses of San An- tonio, he might have spared bis v diseppointment, | which, in my ignorauce of his means of attack, 1 looked upon us certain, The order for storming the place having been given, the next morning, at 8 o'clock, 1 got up easly, so is to huve time to examine with wy own eyes the preparation of this diminutive sieg o Freneh, as far as 1 coukd judge, numbered about 400 men, nearly all mounted cavi three-fourths of whom on this occasion, however, wounted and fought a8 foot-soldiers. This small body was divided into three columns of sttack. The one on the left was led by Capt. Du Vallon, we center by Col. Dupin in person; the right was composed of about 100 horeemen, under command, 1 believe, of Lieut. Terret. The whole foree was supported by two howitzers pliced in the front, which soon proved be the most important n;'lmnmllw bloody drama which was about to take place. : Soon the buglers sounded the eharge, and the a gan. The cavalry on the right swept the gu the brushwood toward the left, where they at_the bayonet-point by Commander Du Val skismishes lasted for about an Lour, when the latter, per ceiving that the horsemen bad advanced far enough to pro- | teet lus’ extreme loft, pushed forward with great vigor, clearing the brushwood of all the troops, which were pushed back upon the village, and svon found hiuself upon nall plateau, on o level with the cemetery, 'L e hemet, er, termible fire of musketry comiu? the he cemetery and o v of Carvajal's alry, whieh he forced toretreat.

The prime cause of the present premi- um on gold is ta be fouud in the exormous inflation of the currency, and untilitis forced home to be canceled therecan be no improvement. It is conceded by all managng wild- cat banks that the poorer the enrrency the more rapid is its circulation, and consequently the damage it causes to business. As a Treasury note is superior to National Bank notes, Congress will act wisely by taking measures to amend the law and to assume the redemption of the circa- lation of the Nationa! Banks, and canceling the gold-bear- ing bonds now held as security. Eighteen milions per annum in gold is too large a price to pay for the support of a system of banking which, as at preseut managed, crip- ples the country, and makes it unable to compete with nations hayving a currency redeemable in gold. The obligation of the Government to redeem the dan- gerous issues of the Navional Banks would be a contrac- tion,in this, that it would make more valuable the existing currency, It would wipe out $300,000,000 of existing bonds, but it would open the way to fund the surpius cur- rency, whatover the amount might be,in new bouds. Tho obligation to redeem would also bring the entiro circn- lating money of the country to ono standard, and make its retirement more casy than while it remains in its present mixed condition, This faking frow National Bauks the profits of circulation is o sharp remedy, but the disorder caused by the use of hundreds of millions of irredecmable bank notes will not admit of mild remedies, or of delay. 1t will take from & swarm of banks a 1o proportion of thedr profits, but it will not deprive the commorce of tho country of any of the benefits of a sound eurrency, It will wind up & good many banks, and sond the officers, shares holders, and a good many of the customers of the bavks to some productive employment, to the sdvantage of the community, The present irredeemuble National currency is the gas in the financial balloon which sustains gold at 1477, and demoralizes the industry of the country. It must be reduced, if Congress is not desirous of seeing the country plunged in general bankruptey. The Cincinnati Gazette of Tucsday says: The money market was somewhat closer than last week, owing chiefly to an increased demand for loans, and partly to o further supply of currency.
