The latest dates from that city were by the steamer Jaw. L. Day. which ielt on the sth and arrived at New Orleans on the 10m inst. The dates from Vera Cruz, are four days later than those we have published ; but we have nothing later from the city of Mexico. This arrival brings despatches from Gen. Scott for the gov ernment to me 15th ult. the bearer of which passed through here on the 14. We select a few items from the accounts, but they contain nothing of particular interest. From the dates accompanying the notice of Capt. Loyal’s company, it would appear to be some days after the time he was reported to have been killed. The account says, that “Gen. Scott’s despatches left Mexico between the 12th and 15th of October, escorted by a -pv company of Mexican lancers, 100 strong, un- ‘ der command oi Col. Dominguez. The company left Puebla the evening of the 18th and were attacked the same nignt by a stroing force under Gen. Torrejon;— Shortly afier they were attucked by Col. Vanios. In the two engagements they lost fifteen of their number, but supp->se they killed at least ten tunes that number.— j They returned to Puebla and Gen. Lane placed the des patehes in the hands of his adjutant general, Lieut. Sears, who came down with his Mexican escort to ’ Vera Cruz, but accompanied as far as Plan del Rio by the Ist Pennsylvania Regiment, under Col. Wynkoop, Capt. Loyall’s Georgia mounted men, and three com panies ot artilery. The American portion f the escort j i halted at Plan del Rio and were to return with Gen. J Patterson. Lieut. Sears reached Vera Cruz in the ! night of the 4th inst., accompanied by Capt. George • Taylor, ‘id Artillery, Lieut. Lear, 4th Infantry and ! I Lieut. Hills, Ist Pennsylvania Regiment, on their way home on furlough. Lieut. Henderson, Louisiana Vol unteers. came down to join his company. About eigh ’ ty discharged soldiers also came down. Gen Lane remains at Puebla, retaining all the com mand he took up with him. A circular order from Gen. Scott directs a garrison of 750 men to be stationed jat the National Bridge, I*2oo at Jalapa and*2ooo at Pue -1 bin—the last two points under command of general of : ficers Gen. Cushing has been assigned by Gen. Pat terson to the commund at Jalapa. Gen. Patterson had reached the National Bridge on the morning of the 4th inst., \tilh all his force, having been entirey unmolested upon tbe route. Gen. Lane’s command is quartered in the heart of Puebla, the General occupying the Palace. Santa Anna was at Tepuacan on the 26th ult. He bad given up the idea ol going to Orizaba as he had proposed. A correspondent of the New Orleans Delta, who dates Vera Crus, Nov. sth says : “The n mains ot the lamented Cnpt. Walker, and Ins faithful servant David, are now in the Casile of Pe rote, having been brought from Huainamia, by order of Col. W ynkoop. They will be forwarded to the United .States by a Urge train whP'h is shortly expected from Mexico. Ot Santa Anna and his whereabouts nothing more so known, except that he is a prisoner by his own peo ple, and will have to uudeigo tlie ordeal ol a trial. One thing is certain —he will not wage another tight with our troops. There are rumors ot a sjieedy peace, but in them 1 place hut little confidence. Every thing was quiet at Puebla at last accounts. The two La Vegas still remain at Perote.on their parole of honor.” M An account ot the battle of Atlixco is given in the Flag of Freedom, of the 23d October, published at Pue bla. A small portion of General Lane's force, Capt. Ford's coni|any, (late W alker’s men) only, participat ed in the muon. The enemy was first attacked be tween the towns of Chotula and Atlixco and pureued to the town of Atlixco, where the Mexicans, under the vuhant Gen Rea, made a stand. It was a short one, however, as the unerring aun of tlie deadly American rifle soon drove them from t.ieir position, and caused them to seek safety in a precipitate retreat, leaving, by the account ot the Flag, over &AJ dead on the field and 1 us many more wounded.

His Excellency, the ( Provisional President, also directs that your Excellen cy establish your residence in such a locality as you shall deem convenient, and which may be in accord i ance with the views ot the supreme government, and that you there await, until the guarantee of I your word ot honor, the orders of the assembling of a ‘ j court martial, composed of general officers, to try your Excellency lor the loss of the uctions in which you have commanded during the present war, and principally for ; the loss (capture) of the capital of the Republic.

With the usual compliments, &c., God and Liberty Tollca, 7th October, 1847. Rosa. Mr. Folk's Friend Santa Anna. The American public have daily cause to admire the I j foresight and sagacity which induced Mr. Polk to per mit Santa Anna to return to Mexico. To be sure it would have occurred to ordinary minds, that a man who | would bargain for a return to his own country, in order that he might be able to betray t, was not much to be trusted. But Mr. Poik's is not an “ ordinary nnnd,” : and the renultuf his negotiation with Santa Anna proves beyond a ppradventure, that it was the most extraordi nary piece of diplomatic tact that the world has ever been called on to admire. Look at Santa Anna’s last proclamation. Defeated in a series of bloody engage ments, and driven from his capital, observe wh.it mild and peaceful sentiments he breathes; admire how ex actly ail Mr. Polk’s anticipations have been realized, and see the policy of permitting Santa Anna’s return amply vindicated. Take the following sentence as evi dence of Santa Anna’s friendship for this country and desire for peace: , 44 Mexcans! You will find me as ever, leading in 1 your defence, striving to free you from a heavy yoke, and to preserve your altars from infamous violation, and your daughters and wives from the extremity of insult. The enemy raises the sword to wound your noble fronts ; do you draw it likewise to chastise the rancorous pride of the invader.” How Mr. Polk’s eyes must be rivetted on these peace ful sentiments, thus gently expressed, and how he must chuckle in his inmost soul, when he reflects that Santa Anna owes his power, to bold this language, to his pru dence, to his sagacity and foresight. —Petersburg ( Va.)

CAY r E JOHNSON, Postmaster General Capt. Jno. If. Magruder. The Charlotteville Jeffersonian publishes the annex ed extract of a letter from tins gallant and distinguished officer, from which we are gratified to learn that his wounds in the late battles were not dangerous. His es- ‘ cape under the circumstances of extreme danger in ! which he was placed, is indeed remarkable. His view s upon the result of Gen Scott’s being constrained to fight { with an inadequate force are strongly expressed, and | deserve consideration, as the opinions ot a brave and intelligent soldier, speaking of what he sees w ith his own eyes: “ I was engaged on the Bth, 10th, 12th and 13th of September with the enemy. On the 13ih I was struck four tunes —knocked off my horse by a grape shot which struck tue in th * neck, but wounding me very slightly, enough, however, to make me famt, but 1 recovered in i a lew moments and went out in the action. 1 wHsafter -1 wards wounded ui the hand by a musket ball, bul cun now write. 1 had two horses shot, though not killed, under 111 c, and in> battery under my immediate com mand, repulsed ./ter charges of the enemy's cavalry and infantry—My health is pretty good, though 1 am thin ner than usual ; 1 am living here at the only place I cun . get which is comfortable until lean recover entirely We have had desperate lighting, ami have loat a gicut iiunitier of officers and men, valuable officers. “ With about IKIOO men nil to il, we have fought be tween 40und bO.ooO men, me enemy having loop,, c s of artillery, and ourselves hut 20 —rxcluJinu u battery ol Mouulum liowiiiera.

The court is composed of thirteen fine look ing officers, the majority of them of long standing in , , the army, nod at tlie head of whom, ns the president, I is Brig. Gen. Bn>okc. Capt. John F. Lee of the Ord | nance Department, the Judge Advocate, is the young ’ est at the board. Gen. Kearney and Lieut. Col. Fremont are as un like as possible, in personal appearance. The former is not over six feet; is, apparently, about fifty-two or lour years of age. His features are well marked, his hair is ailver-gruy; and there is so much of gentili'y in his carriage that it subdues the stem aspect of the sol dier. Ido not pretend to desenlie the gallant general* I am free to admit, however, that the more I gaze up "ti him the more lam delighted with his handsome lace and figure. The latter cannot lie more than thirty years ot age, or not too old to be the son of his princi pal accuser. In person he is what Musuuliy called “spare,” aud of small teature* . bereft of his uniform, n stranger would not designate him as an army officer He sits, in tlie court room, at the same table with his ! father-in-law, Col. Benton, and his brother-in-law’ Mr Jones. Gen. Kearney occupies a position on the right of the Judge Advocate ; and these two gentle men, the ex-governors of California, first engage the special observation of visitors. 1 o-dny the taking of testimony was commenced | Gen. Kearney, in the course ot the examination, rela | ted that he had a conference with Col. Fremont in Cal- ifornia on the subject of a ietter written by Fremont re fusing a compliance with the order of Gen Kearney, on the ground that Commodore Stockton was the su perior officer in command of the territory. General Kearney said: “I told him that I was an older man than himself; that I had great respect and regard for his wife, and great friendship lor his father-in-law, Col. Benton, from whom I had received many acts of kind ness , that these considerations induced me to volun teer advice to him, and that adviet was, that he should lake that Utter back and destroy it; that 1 was willing to forget it. Lieut. Col. Fremont declined taking it back, und told me that Com. B’ockton would support him in the position he had taken in that letter. I told i fr ,,n l fr ßt Commodore Stockton could not support him in disobeying the orders of lus senior officer, and that, j *1 fr‘‘ persisted in it, he would ruin himself.” Colonel Fremont conceives that, as there was a con flict of jurisdiction between Commodore Stockton and General Kearney, the present is the trial of Commo dore Stockton in the person of himself. Commodore Stockton is expected to be present as a witness for the defence.

Washington Union Prime, Ward v i o. The President and directors of the Jefferson County Bank obtained a judgement some ime sure in the Su preme Court of New-York against Messrs.

Alter a patient hearing m the case Judge Edmonds of the Supreme Court overruled all the objections made by the defendants, ami sustained the warrant. The counsel of Prime, Ward & Cos ap plied for a postponement Os the order until the afternoon Os Wednesday, in order that he might make up h.s mind what course to pursue, whether to bring defendants up by writ of habeas corpus to the -Suprern * Court, or to appeal from the decision. The Manhattan Bank, the next largest creditor has also issued a Stillwell warrant •or $10,315. j We regret to learn that the affairs ol this disting j uished house are assuming a position for which Stillwell | warants, are sustained by the Supreme Court of N w - York The current events of tlie day, lioih in England and this country, strongly aim .n,so nil ooainrs men to exercise uie uunnsi cauu un.iest they ueeotu, entang led in someone or more ot the thousand snares of the credit system.

Potato Crop. The potnto crop in this State will tie greatly dimin ished by the rot, which prevails extensively here ss | elsewhere. f I he disease is said to have steadily increas ed ever since it was first manifested, ami some cultiva -1 tors, vegetable physiologists and others, begin to express a fear that we shall lose the vegetable altogether unles 8 some remedy is found. This would, indeed, be a greot public calamity. The annual product of the potato crop 111 good seasons, may be estimated at 150,000 ,000 bush els, which yield to the growers, at an average price <,f twenty cents per bushel, the sum ot s3o,ooo,ooo—an iiu | tuense amount ot productive value for a nation to lose, | ♦•specially so—as there ia not a plant it the whole cata lougue of productions (hat could possibly indemnify us. The most popular theory ascribes the disease to fungi or parasitical influences. This position is adopted by the principal vegetablephyaiolog.sts of (neat Britain, France, and the United States, and most of the dieC nons published in the Agricultural papers, an* given with a reference to this tael. A writer in the Boston Daily Journal of Saturday pro j teases to have discovered the cause of the dis. ase, and nays that uu easy, simple remedy is at hand, accessible to every one—which he promises to show speedily.— We wun patiently for the evidence —A’eirur* Sent.
