The following are extracts from commercial lcttuis received in this city: 1 . ‘‘LivunrooL, Oct. 3.—‘Out 1 Cotton market has undergone no decided change since the tie parture of the last steamer, 19th ult. At times there Ins been some increase of demand, but it has always been 'oo freely supplied to ad mitof any improvement in prices, and the mar ket has become more heavy and languid since tlic itrrir.tl of the Boston steamer of the 16th alt. so tb»t we can only repeat our last quota tions, which nf-u bat]tat barely maintained, say for Upland 3J a 5.^, fair 4j; Orleans 3J a 6$, fair lg J Mobile a OJ, fair If, and Al abarna and Tennessee 3 a 4§per lb.

The business for live days to this evening is estimated at about 19, bales, all to consumers, and the stock now in ill's p n t is about S99.000 bales, of which 673,000 is American. Liverpool, Oct. 11.—Since the date of tlm above circular, we have had a moderate demand for Cotton and the market has appear ed rather more steady and less languid than before, but there is no change in prides. The sales for the week ending this evening amount to 26,540 bides, of which 6150 is Upland at 3^ n 4 9690 Orleans at 3 a 64, with 60 at 2§; 6590 Alabama and Mobile at 3£ a 5, and 100 Sea Islands at 12J a 16jd. per lb. About 3200 b des of it were taken by speculators, and 1200 for export, shewing that the Spinner? continue to buy on a limited scale though they have s'ill an active trade both in manufacturer! goods and yarn*.” “Liverpool, Oct. 11.—There has been a l-ir Ini'incss during this week, and the quota tions of lust week are fully supported, at the same time there is a plentiful assortment offer- iuz at these prices. Speculators have taken 3000 bales American, and 200 Surat. The sales to-day are 4000 bales to tho trade.” “Havre, Oct. 9.—On Monday and Tues day the sales of Cotton amouutcd to 3000 bales; this morning 700 bales were sold at a new de cline of 2 to 3 centimes, among which some low Upland, at 45 centimes.

The advices from the United States received by the English steam ers Great YVestern und Hibernia, exhibit no thing of a novel character, and are far from conclusive as to the extent of the coming crop, there however, seems little to be apprehended vet from heavy sh pments, which will in somo m asure account for the little eagerness on the port or importers to press forward their stock, and the fear of creating a further depreciation may also be assigned as a motive for their hav ing off-red sparingly. The transactions du ring tho past week have therefore been trifling, and buyers bavmg but little choice in the quan tity on sale, and being unwilling to pay higher rales, have refrained from operating beyond the strictest wants for the trade, the sales hare con sequently been inconsiderable, but prices have nevertheless undergone no npparent alteration. The following were the sales effected, viz 2211 bales New Orleans, 49 a 84f.; 937 bales Mobile, 49 a 05 50; 1314 bales Upland, 54 a ■58 50; 118 bales Sea Island. 175 a 300; 29 bales Pcrnnmbubo, 77 50; 10 bales Peruvian, 76 50.

The Battle Gronndi of Texas. The invasion of Texas, by Mexico in 1836, which ended in tho defeat and capture of Ssn'a Anna at San Jacinto, was not the first struggle between contending armies in that country.— In the year 1813, Mexico being then under the domin on of Spain, a large number of Mexi cans in the northern provinces undertook to throw ofl’the Spanish yoke, and were assisted by a powerful force of volunteers chiefly from the United States, and most of them the rene gade remnants of the famous "Burr Conspira cy/’ These adventurers, under Col. Kemper, encountered the Spaniards and loyal Mexicans on the 9th of February, in open field, not far distant Itotn Bexar, and defeated them with considerable slaughter. Immediately subsequent to that action, ano ther ensued on the 29th March, between the Anglo-Americans and the Spanish force under Salcado amounting to 1200 men, with six pie ces of artillery. Notwithstanding their nume rical superiority, and advantage of position, the issue was for the Spaniards disastrous. A select corps of riflemen, under one Lockett, shot down the Spanish artillerists and seized tho cannons; whde Kemper on the right, and Ross on the left, soon routed the enemy’s wings. Four hundred Spaniards were killed, and a much greater number were wounded and ta ken prisoners. The Anglo-Americans, soon afier the action last mentioned, succeeded in regaining Bexar, but on lh< 16th of June following, a fresh Span ish or royalist Spanish force of 4,500, under Elisondo, appeared before the town, which he summoned to surrender. The demand was met by a contemptuous answer. An attack upon the Royalist Mexicans immediately fol lowed, when the combined American and Mex ican troops compelled Elisondo and his army to fly,with the loss of all his stores, after sus taining a serious loss of life. But this victory, although it animated the hopes of tho assailants, reused the vengeance of the Spanish authorises ; end the month of August. 1813, beheld the approach of a fresh army from Mexico, under the command of Aredondtt, Captain General of the Eastern Internal Provinces* estimated at 10,00t) men i While to insure success to this expedition, troops had been drawn from Vera Cruz, and united with veterans of the imerior.

The flight of the former disorgan ized the latter; yet they flinched not from the contest, but fought with a desperation propor tioned to the emergency of the occasion. So gallantly did they acquit themselves, that the Spanish cavalry was broken, and Aredondo commenced preparations for a retreat. At this critical moment, Colonel Musquiez, a traitor from the Mexican ranks, rode over to the Royalists and informed them that the Anglo Americans were beaten, and that, fail ing from want of water, they were unable to withstand another charge. Ared>«ndo on hear ing this, rallied his cavalry, and, with some of his freshest companies, made a furious rush upon tho Anglo-Americans, who were com pelled to yield ground. Thinned in numbers —their amunitiun spent—wearied with the struggle—and parched with a burning sun their defeat became certain.

But, your allusion to Mr. Strong, calls (or a word, as we pass along. Occupying the position that he now does, he may be unwiMiog to notice it, and indeed there is very little remarkable about it, except its rude and ungen'h m mly phraseology. Yet I cannot omit tho orcas : on, to say, that if he is an individual ho 1 as shown a better claim to the till*; titan bis former associate*, whoso in dividuality has lieen merged in party servility, at the bidding of a leader, whom, six years ago they affected fo dispisc. If ho is an individual let me tell you sir, he holds individual opinions, and maintains them with the independence of a freeman, and a right understanding of them, which many a would-be politician, might well part wi;h his cotton crop to possess. You set out by saying, that rumors have been circulated, that you had changed, and tak en the stump for Polk and Ddlas. These rumors, you say were circulated in Monroe and Baldwin. If so, it is strange that they did not find their way to Houston, or B*bb or some where in your own district, where such an im portant announcem- nt was likely to have most effect. Rumors of this sort ‘fly on the wings of tho wind,” but perhaps ihis rode on a gen* tl« ‘‘Zephyr,” and moved so sluggishly that it would not have reached us untiffafter the next fall elections, had you not faun d it into fury ; if so, I admire the plan, though I can’t say as much for its object. You have not informed us whether it reach ed Texas or not, before tbe Presidential elec tion there, but I suppose it did, us that Repub lic, if I am correctly informed, was once hono red with u visit from you, but has ever to re- gret, that the prevalence of the Catholic religion there, prevented the emigration of so distingu ished a man to its shores. Doubtless your opinions have caused Gen. Burleson’s defeat. In jour next, will you be kind enough to say whether the liberation of O'Connell was retard ed by it? Or whether Louis Philippe’s con templated virit to England was deferred on this account ? As both of these personages are Catholics, I suspect some connexion between tho rumor and their private griefs, and should like the cit Z'-ns of Hou-ton and Macon, to know the dread truth al once. Consider sir, the importance of these questions, and inform us before we put up a candidate for Senator in our district' If all these and more untold, are the consequences of your position on the political arena, I for one, think it useless, to spread By tins calculation, if Clay los's a s'ngle State, except Rhode I-land or Delaware, he will be beaten. Virginia, the State that never voted for a Federal President, and never will, is put down for Clay, and that leaves him twelve less than is requisite to elect him. In the list there are several other States cer- tain for i’nlk, Georgia and Louisiana among the number—whilst he has an equal chance for Ohio, North Carolina, and Indiana.

Major Noah, a leading Whig editor of the New York Sunday Times, (a neutral papcT,) says: “We read J00 papers daily and cannot be mistaken in public opinion, when we say that Poik and Dallas nrc running ahead with tho rapidity oflighining, and yet we can get bets If the people cannot detect their treachery with the facts before their eyes—when they see Mr. Berrien hand in hand with Webster, Adams, and Granger. Wh-*n they see all the Whigs ofthe South advocating and support, ing Northern measures and voting with their enemies, and when they have the testimony of such men as Chappell, Troup, Colquitt, Coop er and others—they are willing to be betrayed, and deserve their fate, be it what it may. It is my opinion if Clay is elected, the veto of the President will be abolished; the 200 millions of Stale debt be assumed—the Tariff be riveied on the country, and the South kept in slavery or driven to rebellion, and in the latter case whipped into subjection. The State of Maryland owes fifteen millions spent principally to promote the interests of Baltimore, and the Sou'h will bn made to pay this debt by a system of taxation admitted to be unequal—though she never did nor never will derive one cent of advan'age from it. Pennsylvania owes 42 millions spent to btt'ld up Phiiade'plrin to enable her to compete with New York and Baltimore, and must be paid upon the same principle and no benefit. And the leaders are notri electioneering with the peo ple of these two States on these very tt rounds, Besides, sir, remember that each election con test as now conducted, buj tends to corrupt and degrade the elective franchise; you as an amateur patriot, should prevent these contests whenjpm have, as I fear you now have, the power to do so. It is thought by some that you, who ran to Texas to get clear of tne Mon- roe Rail Road, and ran back to get clear of Popery, nowthatyou have entered the tu r ffor another race, can outrun any of the common men we could start, and have only to he well known in the two counties, to walkover the track at the next frill races. But do not cheat yourself into the belief that because we may pay the forfeit, that we are going to become your backers. We know you too well, and let me assure you, you are known too well ever to be backed by ull your own political as sociates. Still, I have no doubt that if you con firm our fears either by public announcement or haughty silence (tlv>u»h l have no right to speak for the whole Republican party)you cun become the Senator of Macon nod Houston with ease to yourseli'and advantage to your purse, which last with you is some inducement. But on the other ' and let me assure you just as confidently, that ifthe people of Houston and Macon should learn that you are not the Mag- nate you would have them hclisvt, they have a candidate who*® should“rs well bear a Senatorial robe.
