A letter from San Luis Potosi ON the 28th oil
October. says there were then $4,000 troops
there, and that in fifteen days more there would
be $4,000. There was no room for people in
the city, and provisions were excessively scarce.
Gen. Santa Anna had ordered number Of
officers to leave their commands in the army
and repair to the village Of Pozos for :rial on
the charge Of cowardice at Monterey.

We make another extract from the iourna

We think all will agree with us that this officer
upon his return, must give to the public his
tory OF the expeditions:

ton from the Pueblo's to visit their town o.
Santa Fe. From height 10 height as we adj
vanced we could see horsemen disappearing
at full speed. AS we arrived abreast of the
town, the General was told by guide posted
there for the purpose, that this was the road
for Santa Domingo.
He sent the chief part OF his command and
the wagon train along the highway and with
his staff and Capt. Bargwin's squadron Of dra.
goons, wendell his way along the middle path
nearly due west to the town. We had not pro-
ceeded far before we met ten or fifteen sache.

in the course of conversation, the alcalde, q
grave and majestie-looking old Indian, said
casually, we shall soon meet some Indians
mounted. They are young men of my town,
friends, come to receive you, and wish you tc
caution your men not to fire upon them when
they ride towards them.
Sure enough, when within few miles Of
the town, we saw cloud of dust rapidly
advancing, and soon terrible yell; the real
Florida war woop over again.
The first thing that caught my eye through
the column of dust was fierce pair of Buffalo
horns overapped with long shaggy hair. A:
they approached, the sturdy form of a maxi
Indian revealed itself beneath the horns, with
shield and lance dashing at full speed on a
white horse which like his own naked body,
was painted all the colors of the rainbow, an

of the passing Indians.

EAGLE HOTEL.

pair, is now prepared to receive and ac-
commoda'e the travelling public The
spaciousness Of the edifce will afford
him ample means Of rendering comfort
able all who may honor him with their
patronage. He is determined to build
up for the establishment a name at
least equal 10 any similar Hotel in tho
southern country. Families can find
temporary home and entire privacy, not
only in their apartments, but at the table,
it required Stabling on the premises,
though sufficiently removed TO prevent
annoyance. For the accommodation OF
members Of the Bar, on professional
business at the seat of government, he
has a number Of private single bed
rooms; and also AL apartment for hold
ing ordinations and other conferences
incidental to the courts. His tie rms are
those usually charged in the city; and
while he has no disposition to fail from
them, he is determined that no similar
establishment shall be more economical
than the Eagle Hotel.

cal cause, the Loco candidate for Governor, il
elected by about $50 majority. Houston, the
Wing candidate for Congress, and majority
Of Senators and Repres ntatiyes elected, thus
securing United States Senator, in place OF
Thomas Clayton, whose term expires on the
9TH March next.
MIcHIG Though the Wings have made
great gains, we have no doubt the Democratic
candidates are elected The Wings, in fact,
did no, seem to know what they could do, and
therefore did not elect as many members OF the
Legislature as they might have done. They
could have elected Mr.. Wisner to Congress,
had the proper effort been made. The Wings
of that State seem disposed to let the locofocos
carry out their schemes in Banking and other
local matters, and perhaps i. is best for us to
let them rule year or two longer. The DEM
ocrats made the Banks and the State debt in
Michigan and the Wings are disposed to let
them do what they please with the Banks and
point out some mode to pay the State debit

From The Wew Orleans Pcayune
Latest from Mexico.

| We have received by the schooner Mitis, pa.
pers from Vera Cruz to the 9th inst being eigh'
days later than our advicss by way of Havana
| This intelligence is interesting and not without
importance.
The tone of the Mexican papers is as embit-
tered against US as ever. Nothing is talked Of
in the Provinces but the war; and in the CAPT.
tai but the war and political divisions. But
let US first bring up the news as to the expedi-
ton against Tabasco.
When Commodore Perry left the anchorage
near VeraCruz for Tabasco, the Mexicans sup
posed that Alvarado was again to be attack ed.
1t was only some days afterwards that they
learned its real destination. Their first ac-
counts of the result were published on the Cd
inst. They treat it as a wantop, predatory ex-
petition, prompted only by the defenceless
state of Tabasco, and they taunt us with our
two repulses from Alvarado, and defy US to
renew the attempt.
The Indicator of the Cd inst, says that the
evening previous they we're insulted by an
A merican merchant vessel, which passed the
city of Sacrifcios so close in that she might
readily have been seized by boats and launches
from the port, the blockading ship being at
quite a distance at the time. The blame is
thrown upon the government for not providing
money and other resources to improve such OPP
portunities.
The Indicator says that the Captain-Gsneral
at Vera Cruz received dispatches on the 5th
inst. covering another from the Secretary Of
State of the United States to the Mexican Sec
rotary Of Foreign A fairs. The purpou was
unknown to the editor, but he presumes it to be
another proposal on our part for peace-Mr
Polk presuming that the fall of Monterey will
dispose the Mexicans to submission. The
editor goes on to say that the supreme govern
ment neither wishes nor is it an thorized to enter
upon negotiations. The subject belongs to
the Congress to assemble in December, which
assuredly will not render null the efforts which
the nation is making TO obtain by open force
complete justice. There will be peace, he
adds. il the Amereans wish il, but it will be
upon these conditions, and after the prelimina-
RES have been settled at San Luis, or further
towards the frontier.
Government received Dispatches on the lst
inst, from Santa Anna, with . statement OF
What measures for defence he had taken, and
expressing a hope that he should be able to re-
pair the honor Of the nation. Santa Anna also
grote that Gen. Taylor had received from

Capture of Tampic0.

We had the pleasure this morning of meet
ing with the gallant Commodore PERRY, who
landed at the Balize yesterday, from the U. s.
steamer, Mississippi, from Tampico, and ar
rived here to- day. The city Of Tampico was ia.
ken on Saturday last, by a force from the Gull
squadron, without striking blow. The garri-
son had, in compliance with the orders of San
vious, and marched with all their arms and am.
muntlon, including the ordnance of the fort,
to San Luis Potos.
About $50 marines and sailors were landed
to take possession of the city and garrison it,
and Commodore Perry left Commodore Conner
in quiet possession, having small fotilla at
The mouth of the river to guard it. The yes.
sells composing the expedition were the steam
ers Mississippi and Princeton, the soop St. Ma
ry's and the brig Porpoise.
Commodore Perry appears in excellent health
and spirits, and leaves tomorrow to reion the
squadron. Purser Warrington of the Missis-
sippi, came up to the city with the Commo-
dore.
We understand that the object of Commo-
dore Perry's visit here is 10 facilitate the for
warding Of troops to garrison Tampico.
The Mississippi, we understand, touched at
the mouth Of the Brazos, for the purpose Of
communicating the fact of the capture to Gen.
Patterson, and directing reinforcement to be
sent from that place.
Com. Perry places high estimate upon the
value of Tampico, in military point of view
and deems it ofimportance it should be held by
a strong garrison. He represents the people as
being well disposed towards. the United States.
