FURTHER DETAILS OF THE MEXICAN NEWS;
ARISTA'S ACCOUNT OF THE BATTLES
THE LEVY ON THE CHURCHES, SC,
The New Orleans papers of the Sd inst. con-
tain some further interesting details of the
news from Mexico, received by the Louisiana,
The Mexican accounts of the two battles with
General Taylor, differ considerably from our
own. The Pcayune says:
They claim positively that the number of the
killed and wounded on the part of the Ameri-
cans was more considerable than that of the
Mexcans, Gen. Arista sets down the force OF
the Mexicans in the action of the Sth at 5000
men and twelve pieces of artillery; our num-
bers are stated to have been 5000 more or less,
with great superiority IN artillery, The des-
truction by our artillery is represented to have
been severe. Over three thousand shots are
said to have been fired at the Mexicans by our
artillery, between 2 O'Clock, P NJ, and I, in
the evening, when the battle closed. The Mex
leans in the same time discharged seven hun
dred and fifty shots in their artillery. The
Mexican loss on the Sth is set down at 352 kill
ed, wounded and missDg-and they claim TO
have retained possession Of the field Of battle.
We have not the description of the action Of
tHe oIi Wy pel. ATlsld, as We hdu supposed III
our haste, but we have by journal friendly to
him. His position is represented to have
been CALAMITY forced, notwithstanding the re-
peated charges oflhe Mexican cavalry, the last
of which was headed by Arista in person, and
during which they actually "cut to pieces two
entire companies Of the Americans" The loss
of the Americans is still represented as SUPERB
or to that OF the Mexicans
The papers make very patriotic appeals to
all good citizens to come up now to the rescue
of the country. Even the Ell Republican,
claims that 'the President is making and will
make new efforts, as great as the emergency
requires. 1t urges all to make the sacrifices
which will be demanded, and appeals to the
Congress about to assemble 10 sustain the war
at every possible hazard. Ii recommends the
putting aside of personal dissensons, and de-
nounces those who would resort to foreign inter-
Fenton to bring about peace.
II Republican, praises Arsta 10! the perso-
nal gallantry he displayed III action, and hopes
yet to see his name associated with victories.

81 some Importance.
The difficulties between the Spanish and Hayden
parts Of the Island remain unchanged. Both par
ties were making extensive preparations tor final
conflict and II thought that il would take place
IN the month OF February. Strong hopes were enter
tainedby the Dominicans that they would be victo-
iious In the meantime, the Hayden fleet of war
schooners are falling 10 pieces and iHto the hands
Of their enemies. According 10 the repor, of Cant
Holmes, OF the Susan, arrived YESTERDAY the three
Hayden men OF war; which were cast away near
thar place, had been taken possession Of by the Do
minicans, who had made prizes OF them, and can
tured their crews, consisting OF $50 persons They
mad succeeded in getting two OF the vessels of
shore, and saved the guns, spars, sails, a,c from
the other
There is one feature in the iatelg ence from this
fertile island that is OF considerable importance, 1t
IS that relative to the concentration OF large Spa

cans had applied to Spain for aid that il had been
granted and that the feet which has created so
much astonlsh ment in this country, has assem-
Died TO take part in the struggle between the
TWO races on the Island Of Hayti. II also appears
