Jjtttcftt From Vera frni. The Picayurtf of the 21th gives us the only intel ligence we hare recently received from Mexico, which Nve trust will he of sufficient interest to lay before our readers : The steamship James L.

Two died on the passage, viz: Richard Beomisn, 12th infantry, on the 10th inat., and Win. Miller, of company D, Voltigeura, on the 23.1. There had been no later arrival direct from the city v t Mexico at Vera Cruz, when the James L. Day leu VVe hove not even a well authenticated rumor touch ing (Jen. Scott and his army.

But More commencing any operations of a military character, l have considered it my duty to act in obe dience to the impulses of humanity, and consequently request that your Excellency will please evacuate this ■within a certain and peremtory space of time, it being known to yen at the same time that you can depart with all die honors ot war, either to forma junction with <Jen.

Hut should this courteous request of mine be unheeded by your then, although to me it is a painful alterna tive,! shall commence to assault your positions, the consequences of which act will be felt by your garrison, because there exists in the vicinity of your Excellency, an army of 8,000 men who are determined that the rights of their nation shall be maintained and respected.

Headquarters, City of Puebla, Mexico, ) September 25, 1847. $ To his Excellency, D. Antonio Lopet de Santa Anna, General in-Chief of the Mexican Army in front of the city : ~ Sir— l have the honor of receiving, at 2 o’clock this afternoon, your Excellency’s letter of this date. In it you were pleased to notify me of the fact that you had taken possesion of this city, for the purpose, as you de clare, of restoring to the full enjoyment of their liberty its citizens who have hitherto suffered so much from the U. S. army. You likewise were pleased to offer cer tain stipulations to this garrison, provided that it would, within u fixed time, abandon the point of defence which it now occupies. With regard to the assertion of your Excellency, which implies that the inhabitants of Pue bla have been maltreated by the U. S. troops, I wholly deny it. On the contrary, I assure you that the property and privileges of all have been maintained, and respect ed with the greatest scrupulousness, indeed, so much so has it been done, that its parallel cannot be found in the annals of war. And I would most willingly leave it to the moat intelligent and impartial portion of the popula tion of the city to decide, from which of the two con tending parties they have received the most injury and molestation ; whether it is from their own countrymen or the troops of the United States. \V idi regard to that particular part of your Excel lency s letter which demands the surrender, within a fixed lime, of all the positions now oc -ipied by the troops under my command,! can only say in reply, that having been honored with the duty of guarding and protecting them, it is equally my greatest wish and par amount obligation to preserve them to the last ; and I am fully satisfied that I shall be able to defend them successfully, isasmuch as I have at my disposal all the resources essential to its full and complete accomplish ment. W ith considerations in the highest degree respectful, I have the honor to be your Excellency’s most obedient aervam, THOMAS CHILDS,CoI. U. S. Army, Civil and Military Governor. The Arco Iris of the 13th inst. furnishes interesting interesting news from Plubla, which is translated to ur hands by \he Genius of Liberty. It is a fitting sequel to the above correspondence : Plubla, 2Sth. —At 5 o’clock on the evening of yes terday the points of San Juan de Dios, Santa Rosa and Santa Monica commenced a heavy cannonade upon the American works. The latter immediately began to throw cannon shot, bombs and grenades into the centre of the city, which suffered iu consequence some consid erable injury. Don Manno del Rio, whilst standing with his wife on the back balcony of his house, was struck dead by a cannonball. At about 8 o’clook P. M. the cannonade ceased, but commenced again at the dawn ol the follow ing day. Puebla, 29th.—By order of Santa Anna a body of troops was yesterday posted in the Convent of Santa Teresa, at one of the comers of which a breastwork or cotton bales were erected. Four hundred cotton bales have already been demanded of the house of Velasco for the defence ol the city. To prevent the completion j ©1 this work the Americans from the fort of San Jose kept up a continual fire upon the workmen, which, being ■toutl) returned by the Mexicans, the discharge of bombs •nd grenades from the American lines greatly increas ed. After canonading and skirniisliing for two or three days, without any material injury to either party, Santa Anna retired from Peubla with his forces. A Mexican paper from Jalapa says:— I On the Ist of the present month Gen. Santa Anna, at lllie head of2ooo cavalry and infantry and three pieces of puilery, sallied out of Puebla, intending to attack th< ILii. ricun train which left Jalapa on the Ist inst., ami ►ached Perote on the 4th. But before arriving at Te ►yahualeo the designs of the commander-in-chief of P** Mexican forces were wholly frustrated, all his men, ►‘th the exception of 130 hussars of his personal guard, paving pronounced against him.

Among other tilings it utemions that there are those who pietend that the minds of the people of tile interior have undergone a change since our occu pation of the city ol Mexico, and that they ore depos ed for peace upon any terms. We have little laith in this. Tile Genius of Liberty of the sth inst , gives the fol lowing account ol an expedition against the guerrillas Guerrilla j'.xprdition. — The guerrilla, have of late become so truohlesome nud daring, and have gathered in such swarms in the chapparral and other places of ttmbusc in the vicinity of this city, that even the Mexi can l.trmrrs would not venture in to supply our market 111 consequence of this slate of affairs, Capt. Truett with 200 mounted volunteers, and Copt. Armstrong with 180, wen! out on the morning of the 13th inst., by order of Maj. Gen. Patterson, to scour the country and rid it of these marauding robbers, who under the guise ofpatrio ism, infest it to the detriment of the Mexicans as well a, the Americans. According to the orders of Maj. Gen. Patteraon, Capt. Truett was to proceed to the right ot the city in u north westerly direction until he struck the ( Uizalia road, which he was to follow turning to t ie left, while Capt. Armstrong was to proceed to left of the city in n smith westerly direction until struck the same rood, which he was to iollow turning to the right. Tlie two detachments were to wore to march with hankers until they met, and it will be seen, by ■lie arrangement, that any party, fleeing from cither ol them would run a risk oi being encounted hy tlie other. Capt. Truett marced by Santa Fe and Matagordera, lie found in various pluces large quantities of arms and ammunition whieli he either destroyed or carried uway, anil succeeded in killing six guerriileros. Capt. Arm- ‘ strong went to Medelin, where there were a great num ber ol guerriileros, hut they nil made their escape, with the exception of one, who was killed. Mere he found a large lot of arms and ammunition, with some oi the clothing of the American soldiers, of wltich he destoyed the greater part and carried the remainder away. He remainded at Medelin all night, re-crossed the river early next morning, and marched in tlie direction of the Orizaba road. He proceeded, however, but a short dis tance iu that direction when he came across the trial of a number ol shod horses, he immediately turned in the direction of the trial, and following the tracks, soon ar rived at a number oi ranchos which were all crowded with guerriileros. The volunteers charged upon them with their usual impetuosity, driving them away from every rancho with much slaughter. Six bodies were counted lying dead ill one yard. In these ranchos were ound arms in abundance, among which were those worn by the army and navy officers of the United States, but mostly Mexican sabres and British muskets. Capts I ruett and Armstrong returned yesterday, and the manner in which they conducted the expedition was highly approved of by Maj. Gen. Patterson. We have received the above information from an un questionable source and the tacts may be relied upon. At the battle of Cerro Gordo, where Santa Anna also commanded, we have seen six hundred American sol diers left on tile field, killed and wounded . At tlie battle of Churubusco, where Santa Anna, with Valencia commanded - , we have seen one thousand and seventeen hundred American soldiers left on the field, killed and wounded. At the various batties before the gates of Mexico, we have seen some 1,700 to 2,000 more of the very flower ol the American army cut down by the Mexican legions under Santa Anna. We have thus seen some five thousand Americans slain by what Mr. Ritchie pronounced to be a grand piece of diplomacy on the part of Mr. Polk. All these have follen,aiid liostsof others have disabled and niuti lated in consequence of the aid and comfort afforded to she enemy by Mr. Polk; and still it remains to be seen,’ as much as it is did when President Polk sent in his message last December, whether Santa Anna's return, by Mr. Polks s agency, “may not prove favorable to a pacific adjustment of existing difficulties.” And it re mains to be seen,” also, how much longer he may con tinue the war, organize new armies, and give ns battle, and how many more American soldiers he may kill.

The latust English papers gave some aeeount of an engine which line recently been invited tor the mainte nanrr of high speed upon railways of narrow gutge. It ha- Is en put in operatimi with the fullest succeiai The peculiarities of the engine consist chiefly in a dis- I position of the wheels, which permits them to support the wear and weight ol locomotive apparatus of far i greater (lower thansny previously used, while ut the same time the weight of it is so distributed tlint die cen tre oi gravity is placed much lower titan usual. To these advantages are added the corresponding power ol using driving wheels ol any diameter, together with (lie great advantage of bringing the largest portions ol tlie entire weight ot the engines to bear u|ion the ex treme wheels. Tlie engine lias run thirty miles ill diir ty-three minutes, including the time lost in “getting up S|ieed, ’ and in slowly eoming to rest. Many of there miles were gone over at tlie rate oi sixty-five miles jier hour. A mail train oi sixteen carriages, weighing to gether about eighty tons, was taken from Camden Town to Tring, up hill nearly the whole way, a dis tance oi thirty miles, in forty minutes, including th e stoppages, or nt an average speed of forty-five miles jier hour, which is equal to about fifty-three miles |er hour average speed on a level.— N.

According to Mr. Appleton, an extensive manufac turer, the manufacturing capital at Lowell has realized, from its earliest investment to die present time, and av erage profit of ten per cent. That capital is at this mo ment estimated at $12,000,000. tlie number of factories has vastly increased.” “ I he number ol females in the factories is 7,915, and and o! mules 3,310.

The parcels of Cotton samples, to whieli we alluded iu oir 1 ust n lm'i -r us having arrived from In lia to this I port anj to Manchester, have been exhibited to the trade in both towns, and have sold at 611 to 61J per pound. The quality has been represented to us as clean well colored, but deficient in staple, which is attributed to the defective inode of cleaning at present adopted in India. The parcels were divided into small lots not exceeding 40 bales, and they attracted great attention from the spinners and manufacturers. Reports are to be transmitted to the East India Company for their informa , lion, as to the quality of their produce in manufacturing use, and as to the requisitesof the trade. The Manches ter report of the quality of the parcel sent there says ’ Tlie cotton was considered very satisfactory iu poin of cleanness and freedom from seed ; and, so far ns we have been informed, that the only complaint made is with reference to its shortness ol staple. Doubtless it i s not so long as could be wi-hed ; hut this is a defect which, il the statements oiexperienced cultivators are to ■ be credited, can be retndied lo a considerable extent, by ; selecting ground for cotton cultivation nearer the coast. We understand that, with a view to this end, Dr. Wright at the suggestion of the Manchester Commercial Asso ciation, has already secured farms near the coast, in he Goimpatore district. It is said that in this district he an-. ticipates obtaining from 1009 to 1200 pounds of unclean ed cotton per acre ; and even if half tltis produce be oh- \ tained, tog ther with a longer staple, the experiment will be a remarkably successful one, and full of the most important results. Messrs. John Peel & Cos. had re'j ceived 90 bales of this cotton by the same vessel. We ; may now add that they said the whole of this quantity on Saturday last, at 6ld per pound. The way in which this cotton has been brought to Manchester, by tlie spinners, without th: intervention of any buying bro kers, is a fact full of of significance, to which howev er, we shall not further allude at present. We are in expectation of further cargoes, ere long, of the experi mental cotton, so that our spinners, will have ample op portunities and means of judging of the qualities of cot ton, the growdi of various parts of Indian territory.”— Manchester Guardia n.

But as the arrows of the Mexican Indians told weakly against the firearms of Cortes, the utility or treachery of Santa Anna in defensive warfare has placed the city of Mexico at the mercy of the American general.

Y. Jour-jtf Commerce, An Old Soldier. Passing on the bailie field of Molino del Rey, imme diately nfter our victorious standard had been planted on tiie enemy's works, where lay the dead and wound- [ ed mingled togrtlier, my attention waa attracted to dis- i i ferent places, by the scenes of grief and sorrow—scenes j 1 that pained my fndinga and shocked my aight—there I found many acquaintances, dead and wounded, whom I had seen but ashort time previous full ofhealth, and with \ liouynnt spirits, matching at the head ol their commands, 1 jn the strong hope that they would soon, by their noble j , deeds and heroic valor, achieve fame for theinwlvea and glory lor their country. But, alas 1 bow uncertain are i (lie ways of Ide ; there I found flic strong youth and the aged veteran, who fell aide by aide, to riae no more Many of the most noble souls of (lie army, and the ptjde of the country's chivalry, there performed last gal- j hint ucta on the stage of life. After going over a [sir tion o! the ground, ami finding In're and there n valued acquaintance, my attention wus attracted to a gny headel vi trmn, who waa standing hy the rule of cite who had fa.'len. He leisurely took hia blankets irotn his j back, and spread it over the corpse with great care. 1 j rode up to him. and asked him whether thnt waa an j officer II” looked up, and every lineament of hia her betokening thegraatest grief, replied, “You never aak | ed n question more easily answered ; it is an officer,”— I then asked him wl'<> it was. He again replied, “The | best soldier in tlie stt> infantry, air.” 1 then alighted from my horse, and uncovering the face, found it waa Colonel Martin Scott. As I again covered the face, the soldier continued, without apparently addressing himself to any |>eraon in |sirlicular— “They have killed him—flwy will be paid for thio—if it only had been me —1 have aerved with him alinoat four rnhstmenta- -but what will hia poor family say t“ And as he concluded thus, the team coursed down his furrowed checks, and the swelling of hia boaom showed how deeply he waa af fected by the death of hia veteran and gallant comman der. Gold there have been anything mere affecting than die grid oithia soldier on the battle-fiald I and how truly sublime and eloquent waa hia reply to me, that It was “the beat soldier of the sth infantry “ -Mustang Santa Anna—What has been seen. President Polk, in Ids annual message of December 7, 1846, said : “ W lien orders were issued to the commander of our navul forces in the Gulf, on the 15di day of May last on ly two days after the existence ol the war had been re cognised by Congress, to place the coast of Mexico un der blockade, he was directed not to obstruct the pas sage of Santa Anna to Mexico, should he return. * It remains to lie seen whether his return may not yet prove favorable to n pacific adjustment of existing dif ficulties.” Santa Anna being thus passed into Mexico by Pres deut Polk, to “aid and oomfort” the “poor miserable Mexicans,” lot us inquire what we have seen of the things the President told Congress remained “to be seen.” At the battle of Monterey, in September, 1846, we have seen five hundred American soldiers left on tlie field, killed and wounded. At the battle of Bueua Vista, in February, 1847, where Santa Anna commanded, we lutve seen sevei hundred Americun soldiers left on the field, kilUdanu wounded. Gen. Lafayette in Baltimore. During tlie revolutionary war, Gen. Lnfayette beinj in Baltimore, was invited to a ball. He went as re quested, but instead of joining in the amusement, a: might lie expected of a young Frenchman of twenty two, he addressed the ladies thus:—“Ladies, you are very handsome ; you dance very prettily ; your ball i very fine , —but my soldiers have no shirts.” Tlie up peul was irresistible: the ball ceased ; the ladies went home and went to work, and the next day a large mini beroi shirts were prepared by the fairest hands of Bal timore, for the gallant defenders of their country.
