BfACGREGOR.

The NcwYork Columbian informs, that
"the account Of tho recapture OF Porto Bello
--of the escape of M'Gregor, and capture Of
oil his troops, is detailed in the Jamaica pa
pers, but does not essentially diffe, from that
already published. l, is equally disreputable
TO the General, who was completely surpris.
ed T; aud is stated to have bad not a single pic
quet posted outside the town. The Span
iards l,st but four men. The pat,io, flag is
kept Ay,ng on the fort as decoy for vessels
witch arc expected to join M'Grcgor."
A list of the officers belonging 10 M'Gre-
gor's army who were killed, wounded, made
prisoners, or missing. Is published in the CO.
lumbian, probably taken from tho Jamaica
papers.
The Savannsh Republican of the iith June,
after mentioning ao arrival at that port in lo
days from ST. Thomas, at which time no ac-
count Of tho capture of M'Gregor had been
received there, says" Ii is latIc strange,
that his reported total defeat should take place
early in April and not be known in St. Thom-
as on the lst Of June. There appears to be
some mystery relative to this report. 1t may
turn out perhaps, something like the story
got up few years since, and which was pub
iIshed in an official form in some ot the Lon
don papers, that M'Gregor had been taken
by the royaIists, killed, quarsered, naeked in
salt, and sent 10 England" t
