Naval and Military Operations:-We
learned yesterday morning, through ihe
attention Of our correspondent al Pensa-
cola. Of the arrival a, that place on the
18th inst. of the U. States steamship
Princeton, and of The steam frigate Mis-
sissippi on the following day. On the
10Th, The sloop of war Falmouth arrived
there in compeny with another sloop OF
war supposed to be the Saratoga or The
ST. Mary's. There are, therefore, now
concentrated in that harbor, belonging TO
the American Navy. TWO steam frigates,

Purser Ramsey arrived at Pensacola nm
the 2Oh inst. from Mobile, with 100000
for the use Of the squadron.
The U. S. Quarter Mastor, stalioned
here, has received letter from The Bay of
Arkansas, dated the l4th inst, supposed to
have been conveyed by the Falmouth to
Pensacola. 1t announces the loss of the
schooner Swallow, with stores for the
troops in Texas. The letter also men.
tions rumor which prevailed at Aransas
that Mexico had declared war upon This
country. The presumption ia, however,
that this rumor reached Aransas FROM this
city, and was founded upon he communi-
cations of the Mexican Ministers TO. the
Chamber of Deputies on the 2ls. ult.--
This presumption il strengthened. by a
Ieller received here from ansoficer under
Gen. Taylor, dated Corpus Christi, the
18th inst. According TO the Courier, this
letter states that our troops had left ST.
Joseph's Island and were encamped on
The main land--al in good health and
fine spirits--no enemy near-none ex
pected. A Courier had been despatched
to Matamoros aad returned, who reports
only 400 men at or near that place.
This does not indicate that Gen. Taylor
is in any immediate danger, nor is there
any thing very warliks in the intelligence.

very pleasantly situated, and "a fine breeze
almost constantly prevailed.
