Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1841-1853, 1846-10-01
From the Washington Union.
From the CamDs and from Mexico.

Since last paper, dispatches have been received
from the camps of Generals Taylor and Wool. They
confirm. substantially, the accounts which We have
published from the New Orleans papers. Gen. Tay-
lor was OH the eve of marching for Monterey. Gen.
Wool was receiving arms, ammunition, and recruits,
and was preparing for All immediate march To Chi
huahua. Thus three camps in motion, and we
expect to hear of decisive and successful results from
all at distant day. 1t is supposed that in thirty
days, or sooner, Gen. Taylor will be in possession of
Monterey, and perhaps Of Satillo. Gen Wool, OF
the army Of the centre, will be at chihuahua /; and
Col. Kearney will be at Santa Fe. The meshes are
apparently drawing closer round the Mexicans; and
three important posts and sections of country will be
in our hands; besides the ports which we may have
taken IN California.
It appears from the Mobile Tribune, that the
Princeton has arrived at Pensacola with dispatches
from squadron off Vera Cruz. The gentleman
who has brought dispatches for Our government
brings also some Mexican papers late the 18th
August from Mexico, and from Vera Cruz down to
the ID September, inclusive.
We give the following synopsis of their contents
LATEST JOURNALS FROM MEXICO.
RECEIVED BY THE PRINCETON.
Additional Mexican papers have been received at
the Navy Department from the city of Mexico the
18th of August and from Vera Cruz TO the I'd of
September, inclusive. They mention the arrival in
the city of Mexico, the 23d of August, of Gener
Almonte, Crescencio Relon, and Crescencio Doves,
who accompanied Santa Anna from Havana, but say
nothing of any contemplated appointments to the
high Offices Of government; the duties of which, sub
sequcnt to the overthrow of the late administration
had been discharged by the chief clerks of the respec
tive departments.
They publish an address to Santa Anna from Gen.
Salas, who in the exercise of the chief executive
authority, dated the 10th of August and delivered
Santa Anna by three high officers commissioned for
the purpose. 1t consists chiefly of compliments.
The following is translated from the Republican, OF
the 22d of August:
eve see it stated in the Diario del Gobierno OF
the 18th inst, that the brigade which was ready to
march at the time when the pronuncidmento took
place, has not yet been able to leave as it was desr-
ed to finish providing it with every thing necessary,
In order that 1t may not depart like the brigades
which the late administration caused march, with
out equipments, and, above all, without ammunition.
Without pretending to speak in favor of the late adj
minisration, deemi proper to say that this state
ment OF the Diaro is not correct for every Mexican
knows, and saw, that the brigades which have left
were perfectly well clothed and equipped, and we
know also that, according to vouchers which must ex-
st IN the offices and general treasury, all the supplies
OF clothing and equipments which the chief officers of
the corps required, were furnished, and even the
brigade which mas yet left has been provided with
everything necessary. We have been informed that
the expenditures for the clothing received by the
my OF reserve amount to near one hundred thousand
dollars; and In order to ascertain the truth il will
be sufficient TO put this question If the brigades
which have left departed without equipments or am
muntion of what consisted the burdens of the 200
mules which they carried with them II is also
known that another, and the chief portion of the am
munton which was 10 have been sent, still remains
III the citadel; go that the detention of the troops
