GEO” TUESDAY .MORNING, MARCH 33, 1847. o*We occupy a large portion of nur col umns this morning, with accounts of the late battle. Most of these are already familiar to our citizens and many of our distant sub scribers by mean* of Extras issued on Sun day. But they detail events worthy to be incorporated into our regular edition for fu ture reference. There are a few additional particulars from the New Orleans papers of the 24th. We hope to receive still more in lime for our next weekly paper. The Mexican accounts of Ihe recent bat tle differ somewhat widely from the Ameri can. We have become however, sufficiently familiar with Mexican bombast and bragga docio, to know The value to which they are ; entitled. We give some tall specimens in ; this morning’s paper. The fi ittlc of Itapiia Vista. Another immortal page has been written i in our country’s history. Though we are still without full particulars of the laie bat tie. it is already known that new lustre, nn eclip-ed l*v all former achievement*,has b -en shed upon Ihe American arm*’. How proud ; must every citizen feel of the name! In the | most distant of foreign lands, in the remotest ! bounds of he earth, where enterprize has J carried our countrymen, whether in great seaports where our commerce unfolds its sail, and the star spangled binner tl >ats over our Consulates, or in the far interior where | h solitary trader carries the name and the j language of our countrv, the glorious tidings j will be hailed with exultant joy. The eye of j the American will beam with gladness—bis i bosom will dilate with proud feeling*. and expressions of delig' I will burst from bis lips. Praise of American heroism will be u tered in foreign accents, and the tongues ; of every nation will speak of American in vincibility. Even the coarse spirit of del pac tion will be laid, and black and scouling en vy mu.*t eland mate. The triumph of our arms is too complete and brilliant to admit of a quibble. Five thousand men, the ut most. of our force, have met four times their number —the flower of Mexican ch»valr\ upon the open plain, and have defeated them j Utterly and with great slaughter. This j achievement will compare well with anv that j illustrates the arms of any nation, among the most warlike of modern times. It has been achieved too in a great measure hy volun teer: men unused to war and its rough usages—its stern ru es and severe privation men who have been accustomed to the com- \ forts, and many to the elegancies of life ; They have fought and conquered a veteran j»oldierv, well disciplined, commanded by of- j fleers having their full confide: ce, and im i polled to fight with desperation bv fierce hate, by the hope of sp >;!, the maddening sense of want, to le supplied a'one by our army stores which victory would have given them, and a consciousness that defeat would be tantamount a Imost to destruction. The Mexicans fought well. They fought gal lantly, and with a fury commensurate with ! tlieir extreme exigencies. Dut ihrir prowess was vain and impotent against, American . valor and impetuosity. It served only to i give greater lustre to our triumpli. An cv- | tinguisher is put upon the arrogant hopes of j the magnanimous Mexican nation, and their great General,whose tumorous proclamations have announced that lhe American forces were to be driven ignominious!}’ from their ! soil. The twen'y-secnnd day of February must ! hereafter become doub’y endeared to our j hearts. It commemorates the diy which gave to our country and to mankind,that war rior sa< T e whose deeds and virtues won for j him the title of ‘‘Father of his Country,” and are destined to shed in all lime to come a blessed influence upon the whole human race. It will hereafter be a day which w ill give to our countrymen a new bond of union and sympathy, a day linked in our common j memories with the battle fields of the rovo- j lution, of the last war with England, and of I tire present war which commenced so br.l | liantlv upon the Rio Grande. The fallen licror« of ISurua Vista, T/ie most glorious victories are uttenost those which are purchased with the blood of the most gallant heroes. Such victims become thereby more fondly and proudly cherished by the national heart. The gloom of sorrow throws a halo of roman- : tic interest around the recollection, and makes deeper and holier that feeling of pride and ad- 1 miration with which the gallant achieve ment is contemplated. Those who fall amidst the victorious shouts of their exulting companions in arms, become forever identi fied with the noblest of national feelings.— Their fate is sadly mourned, and their memo ries tenderly cherished by a grateful count ry. Never has our nation been called «*n to feel more sensibly, the dear pride at which its reputation for heroic valor, has been pur chased,than on tlu? occasion of the late bat tle. We are called upon to mourn the loss of some of the most gallant spirits of the land. Some were peculiarly objects of interest, and their fate is to be deplored from more than ordinary considerations. Two of them, Colonels Hardin of Illinois, and Yell of Missouri, were men of high po- litical position. When the war broke out | they were in Congress—distinguished m’m ' •= ” | bers. They resigned their seats—hurried ! home, and brought promptly into the field their respective regiments which their exer tions contributed materially to rai-e. Most emphatica'ly to them may be applied the j term—patriot heroes. The gallant Lincoln too, in whose veins Co ved the choicest blood of the revolution — a descendant of the brave General Lincoln, had already become endeared to his coun try, by his gallantry on another field of glory. He was already pointed to by her as one of her voting heroes. There was another, whose very name awak ens a thrill of emotion and enthusiasm, from one end of the Union to the other. The name i of Henry Clay H a spell that has charmed I info admiral ion millions of American hearts. It is identified with all the great events in our country’s history for the last forty years—it has shone bright among the brightest in the j gallaxy of great names—and it has shone on ! unditnmed bv dishonor—unsuspected of want j of devo iin to his country. Men have differ- | ed from his opinions, but no generous mind j ever doubled that his ardent nature was im- | j hued with the soul of patriotism. Ills voice i ! has often rung like a clarion through our | j land, in his country's cause, when foreign ag- j | gres>ion called for rebuke, ft roused up tie chivalry of her sous, and prepared the hearts of the peop'c for war, when insult and uul rage .vere perpetrated upon our il tg. Thai ! voice,slid rich and musical as when il chirm- | j ej a listening Senate, and crowded galleries, j lias been recently heard to regret, that age j | had so far enfeebled his arm as to prevent i s i being raised in this war against Mexico, '‘to ! avenge the wrongs if his country'' Many have boen ilip otfTing* that he has | laid upon the altar of his country—the last is ihat of lit* sou. Paternal inil leuce might, | possibly, had 1 1 been exert'd, have detuned j i loin, idut such were not the lessons taught ; I beneath the rural shades of Ashland. I * Col. Chiv inherited a spir t eager for his 1 i country’s service, and worthy his illustrious | sire. He was among the first of the gallant i hand that went forth from the great valley, to j ohpv their country’s cal!, and was alas, among the lir>t to sea! his ja riotism with his life’s blood Green he the turf over the graves of their fallen heror s of that well fought field, and long Le the;r memories cherished by a grateful people. “There is a tear for all that die.

The o’nvv iuo pat Holism of some of our cil i zmts gave itself vent last evening in an illu mination, fire works, music and the roar of cannon, to ce ehrate the glorious triumph of American arins on the field of Duem Vista. The affair was almost impromptu—the no tice was not sufficiently extended for all our j Broad street residents to follow suit. But the wlk>lp city seemed alive with excitement, and to sympathize with the exultant feelings which prompted Mixer of the U. »S. Hotel— Jennings of the Globe, Latnhack, and others, to make their front w indows a blaze of light. Tar barrels sent forth their volumes of lurid flame and smoke—fire crackers rattled their sharp voilies ky rockets, Roman can dies and other Pyrotechnics shot up into the clear blue skv, above which the calm moon was shining; bui she “paled her inefFtctuil ! | fires” amidst the general glare. Gty music, j swelled upon the air, and the loud shouts of j the multitude gave token of a heartfelt ju | bilee. From the cen’ral window of lhe U. S.
