THE WEEKLY
CHRONICLE & SENTINEL.
From the New Orleans Picayune, loth instant.
MEXICAN INTELLIGENCE.
Expedition against Tehnaean.—Narrow
Escape of Santa Ann« —Occupation of
Orizaba by American Trooj>s->Descrip
tioii of the Country.
By the steamship New Orleans, which ar
rived on Saturday la<t, we received from Mexi
co, a voluminous correspondence and full files
of papers. Having already communicated the
negotiation of the terms of an agreement by
which an end is to be put to the war—we now
proceed to bring up the details of other intel
ligence received by the same conveyance. It
will be found to be of the highest interest. —
Since the battles of the Valley of Mexico, we
have had nothing more graphic than the follow
ing long letter of our special correspondent,
giving an account of a secret expedition against
Tehuacan and Orizaba. It is due to our cor
respondent, whose letters for several weeks of
ten reach us in a single package, to say, that a
letter below, written just before he started ofi
with Gen. Lane’s expedition, was despatched
before the treaty, or projet of a treaty, was
signed. His speculations as to the ability of
the Mexican Government to enforce any trea
ty, will pos-ess their proper weight even now.
although ourcorrespondentcoiild not have been
aware of the stipulation said to be made in the
projet', that twelve thousand American troops
are to remain in Mexico until she fulfills all the
engagements made on her part. With these
prefatory remarks, we leave our correspon
dent to speak for himself.
Special Correspondence of the Picayune.
Though the following letter of our corres
pondent is not of the latest date, his specula
10ns we deem well worthy of attention.
City of Mexico, Jan. 17,1343.
I perceive by the papers which have been received
here that the policy lobe pursued in the further pro
secution of the war, or in the demands to be made
upon rhe enemy in case of negotiation, have be
come the topic before Congress and throughout the
country. Some of the leading statesmen have frank
ly avowed their views, and others it is said, were
about “to define their position.” Without doubt a
crisis in the war has arrived, when it is necessary to
determine upon the occupation of the country, or to
draw an indemnifying line, for if the war is prosecu
ted with the view of obtaining a peace from the shad
ow of a government at Queretaro, or from a govern
ment which may be as»embled under the auspices of
American arms, the army must remain in the coun
try to secure the fulfilment of the treaty, which would
involve us in all the expenses of occupation without
its benefits, and would by the high taxes andburden-
Sotne exactions which alone can force a |*eace, exas
perate a people whose character for vindictiveness is
notorious, and create an animosity between the two
races, which must, if occupation is forced upon us,
and to my mind it appears clear, the perversity ofthe
Mexican leaders, civil and military, will force that
policy upon ur—make Mexico to us whit Ireland is
to England—perpetually alien in language, in reli
gion, in manners and in customs, and in feeling. It i->
clear, that the absence of a fixed and tangible object
in the prosecution of the war, and the hope inspired by
each successive victory ofa.sjx.edy peace, has des|«iil
cd us of the legitimate fruits of those viejories. After
the battles of Palo Alto and Resaca de la Palma. Am
pudia should never have been allowed to gather his
army lor the defence of Monterey, nor Santa Anna to
assemble his grand army at San Luia Potosi, but the
onward movement should have been so rapid and de
cisive, that the capital would be in our hands in three
months from the opening ofthe war. The same hop*-
of coaxing a peace has proved equally vain during the
operations on this line, and still there is no sign that
experience has taught wisdom. After the splendid
vic tones obtained in this valley, the army his been
four months here without making a movement upon
the remaining strongholds ofihe enemy, and he has
had ample time to forget his defeats, and if weareto
credit his proclamations, he i* again about to prepare
for organized resistance. Intelligence has been re
ceived here that in San Luis Potosi, in Zacatecas, m
Guadelajara, and in Guanajuato, the Legislatures and
the people have declared in favor of the war and in op
position to peace. They declare that in the absence
of a government of national organization, they will
band themselves together in sup|M>rt of these principles ;
will apjiointtwo persons from each State, whose duty
it shall be to elect an Executive, and apjiuiiitun Exec
utive, and appoint a chief for the army, and will do all
in their power to raisu supplies. It is true that Mexi
can action has been generally coming short of their
valorous declarations, but it is equally true that we
have too often relied upm these short cumin*'*. This
pronuuciamento is said to have been effected by an
union of the Puros and Santa Anna ist, with the ob
ject, it is conjectured, of embarrassing if not destroy
ing the government ut Queretaro, which is strongly
■uspac-tad of being favorable to peace upon almost any
conditions.
In connection with these belligerent demonstrations
on the part of the Mates I have mentioned, Busta
mente, now at the head of the army, bellying him
self in sad disproportion to his bellipotency, has, in an
address to his countrymen, expressed himselfardently
desirous of being pl iced m a position that will enable
him to drive the invaders from the country and re
cover the military fame which his whilom successful
rival, Santa Anna, says he has by his treachery and
cowardice, lost to the Republic. Almost simultane
ously with this document, the address, or message of
Pena y Pena, upon whom, as Chief Justice, the du
ties ot President, until Congress elects one, devolves,
apjxars. He calmly and candidly exposes the evils
the country is aullering from llie war, and evidently
has hopes of success f rom its further prosecution.—
Yet . ■ does not commit himself for pe ice, but even if
be is io favor of it, he is too feeble a man in popularity ;
and the probability is now that a quorum ot the Con
gress he addresses will never assemble; so that could
a peace be made with him, it would not, as I have al
ready urged, be linn or lasting.
It is itcrhaps i weakness inseparable from our form
of Government that an invasive war cannot be prose
cuted wuh that energy and decision of purpose which
mark the military operations of a monarchy or despo
tism ; still *l is certain the system of re-inlorcmg the
army in driblets—a system, which together with the
great numerical inferiority ut our armies com pi red
with those ot the enemy, has constantly led him to
heps fur ultimate success—can and should be avoided.
Here there is not a sufficient force now fit for duty,
and sufficiently disciplined which can be spared t<»
send uu any enterprise of moment, although it is four
months since the city was captured. This will appear
strange, |M-rha|»s, to some, wh >m t down that under
the command* of Gena. Butler, Patterson and Lane,
about six or seven thousand men have arrived; but
it must be considered that above half of this number
■re in hospital, and that the remainder being new le
vies and volunteers, have not yet arrived at the neces
sary state of discipline.
If it is determined that the chief cities of Mexico
shall all be Liken, leaving out of view the possibility
of resistance by a part or the whole yet possessed by
the enemy, it is estimated by intelligent military men
that the additional force of regulars and volunteers
the former of which the Secretary of War recom
mends shall be raised, ami the latter of which he sug
gests the President shall be empowered to call out,
but with the prospect of their being barely needed
will be insufficient to garrison those cities and keep
open couimumc i lions. The Administration m thus
acting is, doubtless prompt-,1 by a spirit o f economy,
but the system, as his already been proved, is one
that in ih*< end is tar more cosily than sending into
the country al once a force capable of following up
successes with vigor, and of meeting all emergencies.
I’I'EBLA, Jan. 21, ISIS.
I wrote on the 17th inst. from Mexico, ami informed
you 1 intended to accompany a secret expedition un
der command of Gen. Line, which, at the time was
supposed to be intended to scour the valley of Mexico
in queai of guerrillas, and alter giving it a thorough
search, to inarch in the direction ofSanta Anna’s resi
dence tor the time being. The expedition consisted
of two companies of the 3d Dragoons, under the com
mand of Uapt. Duperu and Lt*. Adde and Martin, a
comfMny of Mounted Rides, commanded by Lieut.
Claiborne, and four companies of Texas Rangers, com
manded by Capes. Roberts and Daggitt and Lieuts.
Tucker an I F.van<, numbering in all 350 othcers and
men, lelt Mexicoou the morning of the I Sth, taking
the Penon er Vera Cruz road, Major Polk in chief
command of the Dragoonsand Rifles, and Col. Hays
mchief command ol the Rangers, accompanied the
expeditivn. together with Ma/. Chevalie, formerly oi
the Rangers, Capt. Crittenden, of the Rides, and
Lieut. Buller, Dr. Hunter of Kentucky, and Mr
Meriwether, ol Indiana, the former Aid, and the two
latter volunteer Aids of Gen. Butler, who followed
ths expedition as volunteers. We arrived at the
l*inla dtl Chaco ah-mt four o’clock in the morning,
after a fatiguing march of thirty miles under a het sun
aud over a read covered with dust. The next morn
ing, crossing the mountains enclosing the valley, we
reached Rio Pno about nine o'clock, when informa
tion was obtained which led to the belief that guerril
las were to be found between there and San Martin.
About midway betweacu Rio FrioandSan Martin, we
met Gen. Marshall, wuh the advance of his train.
Some of his otftoers in commend of the rear guard,
reported that about two hun red guerrilloa had been
following them and threatening .in attack the whole
morning. Turning from the point w here the guerril
las were reported to ha«e been last seen, Gen. L ine
detached two companies of the command to purme
them, and ordered the remainder to march »n to Sin
Mart n. aud there the w hole c mmand took up quar
ters tor ih« night. From a very intelligent Belgian
at whose tanrndd, while on the scout, we were very
hospitably received, we learned the certainty that
Jarauta wws wounded in his affair with the Rangers
m the valley o: Mexico, but not so sere rely as was
generally supposed. The wound, the Belgian in.

Martin, w« met Col Miles tn command of the rear
ot Gen Marshall's tram, by w hum we were informed
that Gen. Re.i had been flowing him the whole oi
the previous day, with about hundred men but
did act attac K him.
After an easy march, we arrived here about three
o’chx kin the afternoon. The General was received
with the honors due to his rank, and the heart v cheers
of the Uvopt garrisoning the city, as he entered
manifested an enviable pn'a’antv.
The vicinity of the city is infested with n bbers.
and depredations upon travellers are constantly com

time it was broad and good ; but after travelling some
ten or twelve miles from Amazoque, we turned into
a track but little better than a mule path, and for
about eight or ten miles the horses had to go over a
bare and jagged limestone rock. The horses bore it
admirably, and about 5 o’clock in the morning we
rook up our quarters at a hacienda near the village of
Santa Clara, al the foot of a range ot mountains, after
having accomplished a march of over forty miles.
At this place the general informed the officers that
his immediate object now was to capture Santa Anna,
who, he had information, was at Tehuacan with about
one hundred and fifty men. In order that the Mexi
can chieftain might not obtain information of the pre
sence of our troops in this section of country, the gen
eral ordered every Mexican in the hacienda, and
every one found on the road during the day to be ar
rested and kept close until we left in the evening.
The order was strictly enforced, and at about dusk
rhe march for Tehuacan, distant nearly forty miles,
was taken up in the full hope that the wily .Mexican
would soon be within ourgrasp. Shortly after leav
ing the hacienda, at a part of the road where it runs
through a deep and narrow cut, and before the moon
rose, the general and his stall' riding in advance, came
upon a party of mounted Mexicans armed, before
either saw the other, at the distance of twenty feet.
The Mexicans, eight in number, were instantly dis
armed ; but in the rear of them we found a carriage,
from which step|ied a Mexican with a passport from
Gen. Smith to travel from Mexico to Orizaba and
back, with an escort of eight armed servants. This
being discovered, the arms were of enur e returned,
and the cavalcade was permitted to go on.
Midway between the hacienda we had left and this
place, the road becomes as bare and uneven a rock
as it was a part of the march of the previous night.
The horses, jaded.from the rapidity with which we
had moved the whole distance from the capital, gave
signs that cautioned their riders not to push them too
hard ; and the consequence was, the command did
not travel with the celerity the general designed—for
he hail intended that the forty miles between the
hacienda and Tehuacan should be accomplished in
about seven hours, and that he should arrive there
about two in the morning. Would that he had !
Within eight or ten miles of Tehuacan the guide
received information that Santa Anna was, without
doubt, at that place, and had with him from one to
two hundred men. With renewed hope, every man
now spurred his “jaded steed,” and on we went
(prick enough until within a few miles of our goal,
where a halt of half an hour was made, and the plan
of attack and capture disclosed by the general to his
officers. The party mounted ; orders were given to
observe the strictest silence during the remainder of
the inarch. The order was obeyed, you may de
pend ; tor every man had an intense anxiety to se
cure the prize ahead.
This silent inarch over such a country as we pass
ed through was impressive indeed. On our right
was a precipice rising immediately from the road, to
the height of two hundred and fifty to three hundred
feet; on the left was a dense growth of underwood,
between us and a lofty range of mountains, through
the gorges of which were seen occasionally the moon
lit, snowy |>eak of Orizaba, brilliant but bleak ; and
ahead of us was a road over a lime-stone rock, hav
ing a dazzling whiteness from the moon's rays being
rcllccted upon it directly towards us. Amid the ro
mance of scenery, the suggestion could not fail to pre
sent itself that we were only about three hundred
and fifty strong; that we were from eighty to an
hundred miles from reinforcements, without infantry
or artillery; that we were treading a part of the
country which never before knew the presence of
American arms, and that the enemy might have had
notice of our advance and collected a formidable
force but there was an abiding confidence in the sa
gacity, skill and bravery of the commander.
At dawn we were within half a mile ofTehuacan.
The report of a solitary gun from the town, and the
rapid passage of lights to and fro in the buildings
next us, gave hope that the bird was about to be
caged, and sustained the ex|>ectation of meeting an
enemy. As the command came to the entrance of ;
the town, the Dragoons and Rifles dashed to the right
and left, and in a few minutes every outlet was stop
p*-<i, ami the Rangers galloped ahead towards the
plaza with their six-shooters cocked, glancing an eye
on every side with the belief, and I think I may say
the hope, that the nnemy was on the bouse tops.
The Rangers in the plaza, in a moment squads were
galloping through every street, but no enemy was to
lie found, and in a few minutes we had the mortifica
tion to learn that the great object of our search had
fled two hours before we arrived, and had taken the
road to Oajaca, with an escort of seventy-five mould
ed men. The national flags hung out from the resi
dences of foreigners, and white flags suspended from
the houses of the Mexicans in every part of the town,
told that our approach was known in advance, and it
was with chagrin it was learned that the Mexican,
whose coach and escort was stopped shortly after
leaving 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 a man travelling under an American safeguard, the
xurpn.-e would have been complete. The guide, a
Mexican whose fidelity had been proved, after meet
ing the carriage, was uneasy during the remainder of
the inarch, and was constantly urging the general to
press the command forward with greater rapidity ;
but this could not be done without risking the loss of
the men and horses who were most fatigued, a
weighty consideration in the position he was then in.
It was suggested, on arriving in town and finding
Santa Anna had fled, to press filly or a hundred fresh
horses, and pursue him us long as there was a pros
pect of finding him, but the general wisely argued,
that the lord was alarmed, and Io pursue him through
a country unknown to our troops, and perfectly
known to the enemy, and with the possibility, too,
that the enemy’s forces might accumulate on the road
to a number dangerous 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 ofdisappoinlment having in a great
measure passed off, the public buildings and auspi
cious private dwellings were searched, and it was u
meagre satisfaction to find in the quarters so recently
occupied by Santa Anna, a |mrt of Iris best military
wardrobe, two of his costly canes, his field glass, and
thice trunks conta.nmg his lady’s clothing. This
served, nt all events, to show the chase was hot and
the’departure hasty. His military property was ta
ken as legitimate spoil, and the trunks containing his
wife’s clothing were turned wcr to the alcalde. A
receipt was taken f<>r them, and a letter addressed to
tier illustrious husband by lhe lady, informed him of
ttie <lis|H*si;ion made of' the trunks, and expressed re
gret at his absence on the occasion of our appearing
hi his quarters, h may seem trifling to descend to
an estimate of the value of the articles taken, but it
will serve to show th’* extravagance and love of dis
play of a man who afreets to be a republican. Thecoat
is almost covered with gold lace, and cannot be worth
less than seven or right hundred dollars. This fell to
the lot of <’ol. Hays, who purpises presenting it to
lhe Government of his State. Both the eanes taken
are of great value, being mounted with gold ami dia
mond* and oilier precious stones. One of these be
came the property «>f >n officer of the Rangers ami
the other of Major Polk, who intends to present it to
the President. Ro magnificent chapeaux de bras,
two pair of gold e|Mulelie*, a sash of gold cord and
bullion tassels, and an elegant writing desk all dis
tributed among the officers complete lhe list of val
uables captured with the exception of the field glass,
an excellent one, which the general appropriated to
himself, his only trophy.
During lhe day the Ayuntatniento called upon the
general amt expressed a desire that the American
forces should occupy the town until the termination
of the war. The general told them it was not proba
ble our troops would hold the place at present, but as
sured them of dii occasional visit of our arms to pro
tect the well disj»oe><-d and punish those guilt v of a dis
obedience of th* orders of the commander-in-chief.
With this they went off. apparently autisfied. Seve
, ral of the res|>ectable citizens, on presenting them
selves, expressed a similar desire, and some went so
tar as to say they wished the permanent occupation
of the country. Among the latter class was a highly
educated ami intelligent Mexican, the owner of a
mine in lhe vicinity, whose name 1 forbear mention
ing, lest its disclosure may injure him. Hr was evi
dently a man whosought lhe good of his country, and
was eloquent m his exposition of the evils of a de.-po
lic, a cruel and unstable government. I desire,”
said hr, “to see the gram! plans of the United States
consummated; I desire to see its laws and institu
tions, its religious treed.Mii, its system of general edu
cation, and us liberal commercial system extended
over the whole continent of North America. We
have,” he continued, ‘ the name of a Republic, but a
single instance will serve to show you hew far our
Government has bc*u deserving of that appellation.
In this town we have four th.msand people, but in
your country they would not be called people, because
ot that four thousand no more than two hundred j*»s
sess the degreeot intelligence necessary lor self-go
vernmenl. In the struggle between military robbers
and jiulitical miscreants ibr power and plunder, the
country has been lust, and, sir,” addressing himself to
lhe general in an earnest and emphatic manner, “if
there is a possibility of elevating this people to the
capacity of self-government, and I believe there is, I
repeat my wish to have your laws and institutions
spread over us. This, sir, is the wish of the intelli
gent, thinking and honest citizens of Mexico.”
Orizaba, January 25, IS4B.
We left Tehuacan for this city early on the morn
ing ot the 23d, after a rest of a day ami night, and a
lew mdes from the town, came to a fuicienda of Santa
Anna s at the base of a mountain, and at the entrance
of a narrow valley. The hacienda was thor ughly
searched, but nothing subject to seizure was f und,
and the command proceeded on through the vallev,
the greater part of the mad for six or eight miles be
ing rough and jagged, and over a naked lime stone
ruck, as had been occasionally the ease in lhe tw. pre
ceding marches. I: must not be inferred, however,
that because the mad was a naked rock, ths valley
we were penetrating was barren. Not so some fields
of wheat, lhe only crop now growing, were as fine as
ever sem, and lhe wheat on Sama Anna's ground in
particular, was beautiful and rich in appearance.
But he has taken advantage ot a stream which runs
through the valley to irrigate his land, an economy
the other proprietors seem to have neglected, and he
has the benefit ot his superior management, or rather,
I s<ipp.»se, the su(«enor management of his stewards.
Here, too, and for the first time, since we left the val
ley ut Mexico, we saw the Pimento tree, in full bear
tng.
This valley runs, say ten or twelve miles, in a
Northerly direction, and then turning abruptly to the
narrows m a mountain gorge, where there are
numemus passes capable of successful defence by a
small farce against a largely superior one; but, al
though we were warned to be cautious >n marching
through this gorge lest the enemy should surprise us,
«f fxassrd. through it without meeting a combatant.
The mad is a contiauous ascent. After travelling
three or four mi.es through the the clouds be
fore us, and an occasional glimpse of Orizaba’s snow,
much nearer than is plea*.ng to the imagination of a
man acci-istomedto a warm climate, gave intimation

•-e xuow .;*. a must
have been cut at un immense cost. It is about a mile
in a direct line, but the steepness of the descent made
it necessary to have a load five times that length, and
frequently when a companion is within hearing of an
ordinary voice, to reach you, by the bends of the road,
he has to travel a quarter of a mile. In one of the
turns, from the side of the rock, where it has been
blasted, to the depth of two or three hundred feet, a
spring gushes anti falls almost fi orn the top into an ar- I
tificial basin, and thence finds its way by subterra
neous passages into the valley. This is one of the
sources, and I am told the main source of the Alvara
do river.
At the foot of the mountain the general was met by
the curate and Ayuntamiento of the small village of
Acalzingo, bearing a white flag. They accompanied
us into the village, pointed out good quarters in the
cleanest and best managed country inn I have seen in
Mexico, and men and horses found agood night’s rest.
This city was now but seventeen miles distant. —
From what had been heardon the road it was expected
a defence of it would be attempted, but about 3 o’clock
in the morninga deputation came to the general from
the Ayuntamiento, requesting to know what terms he
would agree to, if the Keys of the city were given up
to him. The reply was that they would know his
terms when he had possession. With this the depu
tation returned, and at about 5 o’clock in the morning,
the troops were on the last days march to Orizaba—
-350 men were on their way to take a city of 20 to
25.000 population. To cut the matter short, lhe A
yuntarniento, the principal clergyman, and many of
the respectable inhabitants met the command abont
three miles from the city, and after, of their own re
quest, being informed of what the troops would want,
a portion went ahead to provide lor them, and the re
mainder, accompanying the general, on arriving at
the gates gave up the keys of the city to him. On
entering we found a white flag displayed at every
house, and the whole population >ei*med to have turn
ed out to witness our entry, and showed a degree of
confidence that was decidedly complimentary. On
conversing with someof the most friendly of theciti
zens we found that there were about 100 or 150 guer
rillas here last night, who were ambitious of defend
ing the city at the gate by which we entered, or who
pretended they were. Whether sincere or not is a
matter of but little moment, but the citizens desirous
of avoiding those excesses wiiich always will lake
place after a successful assault, wisely cleared the
rascals out early in the morning.
Orizaba, Jan. 26, 1348.
We are now quietly and comfortably quartered here,
and the inhabitants seem thus far to be satisfied with
our presence. The General has ip pointed Maj. Polk,
Military, and Civil Governor of the city, Cui. Du
mont, Attorney General, and Col. Hays, comman
der of troops. You will find a correspondence be
tween the AyuntamientoofCordova and the general,
requesting him to occupy their city. The people »n
this part of the country ure generally peaceable, and
all that was wanting to put down the guerrillas who
have r< ndezvoused in the neighborhood, was the pre
sence of a sufficient force to countenance anil sup t ort
the well disposed. The good conduct of the troops
on the inarch and since their arrival here, has assisted
much in conciliating the people, and the durability of
first impressions is proverbial. Col. Bunkhead, we
learn, is on his way here with 1000 or 1200 men and
several pieces of artillery, and is expected to arrive at
Cordova to-night. If he does he will bo here to
morrow. This amount of well conducted troops in
and about here will be of great service in protecing
life and property from guerrilla depredations, and in
encouraging our friends to speak their sentiments
boldly, be they what they may, for peace or for oc
cupation. We shall remain here until Col. B ink
head arrives ; how much longer I do not know. From
this point it is probable the general wilt take the direct
road to Puebla, and thence as rapidly as possible to
Mexico, where it is expected the San Luis expedition
will bo preparing about the time we arrive. Should
Rea, or any of the guerrilla parties lie on the road, you
may depend they will not be allowed much rest. d.s.

The Free American, of Ist Feb., gives the
following account of a brush between the guer
rillas and the train under Col. .McClellan.
The train, leaving V.-ra Cruz on the 30th January,
encamped that night at San Diego. The next day
they advanced, and were fired upon by some guerril
las, who were dispersed by our artillery and cavalry
after a few volleys, leaving five or six of their number
dead. At La Soledad, the command of Col. McClel
lan was closely observed by a body of guerrillas,
rtie artillery (proceeds the Free American) was
brought to bear on them, and al the first shut they dis
persed in great confusion, and touk to the chaparral.
Che cavalry than charged on them, but was again un
successful, ov»ing to the great delay cccasioried bj the
want of immediate orders. The cavalry after this un
successful charge, joined again the main body of the
troops, and orders were given to proceed on.
Capt. Taylor, to whom (he command ofihe caval
ry had been given, Capt. Fairchild, La. Vols , Capt.
Chase, Crescent City Guards, and Lieut. Kelly, La.
Vols., with their resj»ective commands, were ordered
to scout the neighboring country where the guerriile
ros had been observed, and then to report at Palo
Verde, about fifteen or eighteen miles from Soledad.
This parly met several times with the gurerilleros, and
routed them, killing some ten oi fifteen. They joined
the main .force late in lhe evening at Palo Verde. In
lhe meantime Capt. Becancon and hiscompany, who
were in advance ot lhe main force, spied a strong
guerrillero force on the rocky hill* this side of Palo
Verde. He immediately sent an express to the com
mandcr of the expedition, who gave the command or
ders to charge, which was immediately obeyed, ami
alter a sharp combat of about a quarter of an hour, the
guernlleros closely pursued, were obliged to dismount
and take refuge in the chaparral.
Our friend observed at that time, Dr. Ridgeley,
who had joined the cavalry in the charge, so near one of
the cm-iny, w ho took deliberate aim at him, that he ex
pected to see him fall, but the Mexican was so much
intimidated at Lis gallantry that his ball iviosed the
gallant Doctor, and the Mexican took flight and was
beyond reach in a few seconds.
r are sorry to state that the infantry was not of
as much service as they undoubtedly wished, but it is
impossible for infantry to pursue an enemy who is
well mounted and is constantly retreating. They aie
Tennesseeans, and it is enough said in their favor to
guarantee their future successes.
I he trooj>s left Pul<> \ erde on Friday morning, and
reached San Diego in the evening, and encani|*ed at
that place until the next morning, when they left for
this city, and arrived on the same day.
Light prisoners were brought to this place on sus
picion; some, we have learned have been released, if
not all, as there was not sufficient proof to show that
they were guerrilleros.
We must say also, that a man who has been in a
great many of the battles fought tn this country, Mr.
Miller, wagon master, was noticed by several officer*
to be constantly engaged m some useful purpose during
the march of the truous. His present position is nut
as high, perhaps, a* he deserves; but it is from those
engaged in the most modest employments in the ar
my,that very often i • found the most courageous hearts.
When on their return to San Diego, on Friday,
our cavalry was fired upon by a few guerrilleros.
These were pursued and one of them killed. Some
giMsl* well packed, were found secreted in a ravine,
by the pursuers.
The Free American of 3d February has the
following :
The Arco Iris of yesterday, says that a treaty of
peace hail been signed on the 19th uk., and that it is
stipulated in the treaty that 12,0’ 0 men ofihe Ameri
can army will remain in the country to sustain the
G wernment of Mexico.
W c do not believe a word of it, and we will not
until we have belter proof. W e have received a let
ter from Mexico, written on the 22d ult., from a |>er
>.>n well informed, who tells us that the rumor about
the peace treaty is all a “ hoax.”
Expedition against the Guerrihcros—\n x\ie
statement made by uson Tuesday last, of this expedi
tion, we forgot to mention that when the command was
engaged with the guerrilleros a lew miles from San
De.go, a man from the enemy's side advanced to
wards the Americans, holding a small white in
his hands, and cried in a loud tone: “Let one man
come to me. Lieut. Kellv, Louisiana Volunteers
commandingcoaqiany D., and Lieut. Foster, Adjutant
ot the same Battalion, made an attempt to go near bim,
and succeeded in getting within one hundred vardsof
him, when the Mexican said : “One only.” ’ Al this
moment the firing commenced from our side, a great
portion ol which was directed towards the sjot on
which was this man ; he was obliged to retreat, and
no more was seen ot him.
e arecertain that very few of our men saw the
flag of truce which he bor«- ; for if it had been seen
in time by our troops, the firing of muskeU wouldcer
tainly have been discontinued.
Lieuts. Kelly and Foster are entitled to great cre
dit for a 1 vane ing towards the bearer of this flag, while
they w. re exposed to receive death both from the ene
my and from our own fire.
e are happy to have occasion to state thai tbe
two officers have been noticed by “ lookers
al wax s ready to pursue the enemy.
Lieut. Foster commanded the party who charged
the Mexicans, and routed them near Palo Verde. S
An expedition of cavalry left yesterday morning for
Jalapa. We are informed that’much diarrhaa and
dysentery prevails m the city, arsing principally
from the imprudent use of (bad) liquor, and eating
fruits—the season is fast approaching when the tem
perate and prudent may scarce escape—how much

Another Invention.
A Washington correspondent of the New
York Post thus describes a new machine for
operating the Telegraph :
“ I occasionally tell you of curious inven
tions and discoveries, bull fell into company
with a Patentee yesterday, whose curious and
successful ingenuity places him close to, if not
breast to breast, with Professor Morse.
Dr E. R. Roe, of Illinois, has just tiled in the
Patent office the model of a machine for ope
rating the telegraph, which he terms the
“ Manipulator. ” If it accomplishes half that
it promises to do it will obviate all the objec
tions te the telegraph which now exist. As the
telegraph is a subject of universal interest, I
will give a description of the new instrument
somewhat at length. Tho Manipulator con
sists of Ist. Moveable types, which are con
ductors of the galvanic current; 2. A type bed,
moveable, like that of a common printing
press; and 3d, a moveable metallic ‘wand’
made to traverse the face of the types with great
rapidity, and establishing its continuity or
breaking the galvanic current according to the
forms of the types. For operating Morse’s
Telegraph, the types on their faces correspond
with his alphabet of dots and lines. They are
set up from the case like ordinary type ; ex
cept that, instead of being in columns, they are
arranged in lines running the entire length of
the ‘form.’
After being locked up in the ‘ chase,’ and a
proof taken the form is placed on the bed of the
• Manipulator,’ and by one revolution given by
a crank, an entire line of types is passed under
the ‘ wand,’ thereby telegraphing them to all
points connected by wires, as by the present
method.
Instantly on the passing of one line of types
as described, the • wand’shifts itself, and, by a
reverse motion of the crank, the next line of
types is passed under the wand ; and these
alternate motions are repeated until all the
‘ matter’ has been telegraphed, To facilitate
this process it may be mentioned that the lines
of type succeed each other, first from left to
right and then from right to left, alternately.
The Manipulator makes successfully and
distinctly about fifty characters in a second of
lime; which ratio gives 130,000 an hour, and
would, at that rate, have transmitted the Presi
dent’s Message to every point on the Telegraph
line, in less than thirty minutes'
The Manipulator can be adapted to House’s
mode of transmitting intelligence by telegraph,
as well as to Morse's.
All those who have examined the model in
he Patent Oiiice see no reason why it should
not be very easily adapted to the telegraph
now in use. The paper at the terminus of
transmission would have indeed, to traverse
the wheel with vastly accelerated speed. But
this could be provided for without any dilli
cuity, so that there appear to exist no obstacles
at all. The experiments on a small scale have
perfectly succeeded, 1 understand, and it may not
be long before the •* sulphureous and thought
executing fires” may be “vaunt couriers” of
victory, while the wounds of our brave soldiers
are still bleeding, or exhibit the copy of the treaty
of peace before the ink has dried on the orig
inal.

To build our heavenly hopes upon,
And bis eternal praise.

HASTINGS'
COMPOUND SYRUP OF NAPHTHA.
JVT OT ONLY A POSITIVE but a warranted
11 cure fur Consumption and all other Diseases of
the Lungs!
The success which has attended Hastings’
Naphtha Syrup, in Decline, Consumption, Spit
ting of Dloucl, Asthma, (frc., since its introduction
into the United States, fully equals what it met with
in Europe. Its use has been adopted in nearly all
our larger hospitals; and the most eminent of our
physicians have written highly favorable notices of
it, and patronise it extensively in their private prac
tice. Indeed, they have almost abandoned ail other
remedies lor the usual diseases of the lungs; and a
single case has not yet been reported in which it has
failed to give satisfaction and relief, if the reader is
at nil inclined to Consumption, or affected with any
of the diseases which are likely to produce it, let him
lose no time in procuring a bottle of HASTINGS’
NAPHTHA SYRUP, and one or two doses will
satisfy him of its surprising virtues, and that a short
continuance of its use will restore him to health ; for
it not only cures in a brief period, but gives relief,
and a warrant of its excellence and mastery over the
disease in a few minutes after it is received into the
system. Hence Sir James Clarke, the Court physi
cian, remarks of it, that “in consequence of the brit-k
and unmistukeable energy of its operations, no medi
cine has so much the confidence of patients as Hust
ings’ Conqiound Syrup of Naphtha.”

WILD CHERRY AND SARSAPA
RILLA FILLS.
DR. LcRO Y, a 1 licentiate of the Royal College
of Physicians, in London, having used in bis
private practice, for a number of years, the WILD
CHERKY and SARSAPARILLA, at length made
an extract of them, which, with other vegetables, he
has combined in one of the best Pills ever made
known to the European community, and which met
the attention of the American people. They arc the
most efficacious purgative and tonic yet discovered.
The Wild Cherry is an excellent tonic, possessing
astringent and aromatic properties, which make it
valuable in Dyspepsia, Jaundice, Weakness of the
Stomach and Chest.
The Sarsaparilla is demulcent, dieuretic and
soothing, and is given in Rheumatism, Scrofula, Dis
eases of the Skin, and to eradicate the bad effects of
Mercury. In the operations of all other purgative
medicines debilitation and purification go hand in
hand ; they remove the good as well as the bad, thus
weakening the system which they were only requir
ed to cleanse, and making the cure, generally, al
most as bad, and frequently much worse, than the
disease. Dr. Leßoy’s Pills, on the contrary, strength
len and tone the system which they purge and purify.
And this is their peculiar attribute, and the principal
cause of their unrivalled popularity.
P. S.—The virtues of the Sarsaparilla and Wild
Cherry are too well known to medical men and the
community to require further detail.
