Our time and space were so much
occupied during the week past, that
we were bare. y able TO state, as we
did on Thursday last, the general com
plexion of papers of late date which
have reached us from MEXICO. From
a further examination of those papers,
i, appears probable that General Fl
LAsoLA will be dismissed by his Gov.
ernmen,, if not treated with greater
rigor, for obeying the orders gwen Oy
SANTA ANA after his captivity, and
thus putting am end 10 the campaign
We hsye selected and translated from
those papers, for the amusement and
information of our readers, some OF
the Mexican Official papers (Which will
be found.in the following CoIumns)
comprising the correspondence oI
SANTA ANA with FILAsoLA after his
capture, the communication OF that
evert by FrLAsoLA TO his Govern
menr, and The proceedings Of The Mex
lean Congress and Government subse
quent to the receipt Of FlIasola'S
dispatches.
II will be remarked that FILAsoLA
asserts that SANTA ANA had only 700
men with him. Gen. CAsTRILLoN, 1t
appears, was not killed, as former &C
counts have stated. But the most
important fact in the Mexican Officials
is, the decree of the Congress, where
by all SANTA ANA'sacts, while a pris'
oner, are declared null and void, II
seems that the nearest friends Of the
captive Presidenl-those whom he
had left to administer the Government
during his absencu--hOve adroitly
taken the lead in directing the ma.
tional energies, and left his personal
fate 10 be decided by events. This,
we think, was not expected. II was
rather supposed that Revolution
would take place; or, at any rate,

weight Of more value even than the

We have heard Of but few partc
ulars Of the closing scene Though re-
duced to the last degree of weakness,
his mind continued unimpaired until
within a few hours Of his decease.
We have seen a letter, which he dicta'
ted, signed, and franked, on Monday
evening, the 9Th, some l9 or Is
hours before his death 1t has all the
marks Of his style, modesly, and be-
nevolence. The signature is some

last time he had a pen in his band.
We understand that he left, ready

STEAM PLOUGH.

Some experiments were tried on
Friday week at Red Moss, near Boil
ton, in the presence of Mr.. i1andIey,
M. P, Lincolnshire, Mr. Ceapman,
M. p. for Westmealh, Mr.. Smith, OF
Deanston, and other members inter.
ested in agriculture, with complete
and very powerful steam plough, con
s,ructed by Mr.. Healhcote, M. 7. for
Tiverton. About six acres of raw
moss were turned up in few hours,
and Iurned up 10 most extraordinary
style, sods eighteen inches in breadth
and nine inches in thickness being
cut from the furrow, and completely
reversed in position, the upper sur
face of The sod being placed exactly
where the surface had been before.
The possibility ofploushins by steam
has thus been established, though, as
the employment of the steam-plough,
IN preference to one drawn BY horses,
will depend on the cooperative cost
Of the two powers, and on that OF the
two implements used, aud as there
are not at present any sulliGient date
of judging what the difference OF the
cost will be, it is not possible to say
how far steam is likely to be applied
to this department of agriculture
The plough ofMr. Heatbcote, though
very powerful machine, appears lc
US 10 be much too complex and costly
for common agricultural purposes

following factsS characteristic Of these
brave anl Iamented men,, which are
we'll authenticated, are extracted from
a letter recently received from a friend
residing at Natchitoches, Louisiana:
"During the siege Of the Alamo.
the Mexicans planted piece Of ordi
nance within gunshot Of the Fort,
with the intention Of commencing a
brisk csnnonade. Five men success
sively stepped forth to FIRE the gun
and were each marked down by the
unerriug rifle of Crockett. The con-
sequence was, that the gun was aban'
doned. =.
ga characteristic fact IS also related
of Col. Bowie, who formed one of the
iIl.fated garrison. When the fort was
carried, he was sick in bed. He bad
also one Of the murdeTous butcher
knives which beares his name. Lay
ing in bed he discharged his pistols
and gun, and with each discharge
brought down an enemy. 80 lnumI'
dated were the Mexicans by this act
of desperate and cool bravery, that
they dared not approach HIM, bu'
shot him from the door-and as the
towards approached him over the
dead bodies Of their companions, the
diving Bowie nerved himself for last
blow, plugged his knife into The heart

that he expired. Such are a few OF

Williams, and among the witnesses for
the prosecutions the celebrated Aaron
Burr, now upwards of eighty years

lady, the daughter of a. Lawyer at

trial has arisen from a suit instituted
