Gen. Taylor's Dispatches.

Oacial dispatches from Gen. iaJ loF were receIV-
ed al Washington on Tuesday evening The Union
gives the following account OF their conteats- Il
viii be seen the, previous sdvices though IN some
respects Inaccurate are vet substantially confirmed
FROM THE RIO GRANDE
We learn thar dispatches were received this eve
ming from Gen TAYLOR dated the Sd and 5ih inst
both Poin, Isabel and the fort on the Bio G-ande,
perfectly safe.
On the ! st. the detences On the river being made
strong. NEARLY completely General Taylor LEFT a
garrison OF some 500 men. under Malor brown OF
the 7ih infzotry and marched with the remainder of
his army ~ niles TO Poin, Isabel Not an enemy
was seen IN the whole distance All appsenensions
for the safety Of that depo; OF supplies were thus dis
sipated.
But on the morning Is o'clock of the Sd. the en-
envy, from the side OF Maiamoros. opened heevy
cannonede upon orr fort which lasted Win out w
tie ir'ermission ill midnight In the meantime lac
enemy guns iall but one mortar were el!srced BY
our fort Major Brown los; one sergeant Killed and
not another man wounded Our gallant little band
expected assault, from this side ofthe river at the
same time, and was ully prepared 10 rePei II None
was made.
Ma,amoros was necessarily fred upon in the act
Of silencing the enenys batteries. and also TO XII
disperse the troops therein quarered. The build
ings were probably but liitle damaged Ihe lnhao-
itants, no doubt, had mostly fed before the COM
mencement OF the cannonade. What number OF
Mexican troops was only known by conjecture no
doubt considerable number.
General Taylor, at Point Isabel, expected, on the
STD. to march the next day with heavy train OF
supplies for the fort the river and hence TO as
sumo offensive operations against The Mexcsns but
private letter makes the probable conjecture that
General Arsia had returned with his regulars to the
other side OF the river-leaving in The chepparals
only the rancheros-hs irregular cavalry II is not
likely that he will reinvade Texas, as General 7.
had received or xpected receive the 9th instant
several attachments of troops Feguars and i'resu-
lars from New Orleans
The affair with Capt, Walkers Texan rangers,
as was represented BY runor. was much exaggerat,
ed. In the temporary absence OF that gallant and
enterprsing officer, his company lost by surprise,
but handful of men-5 or 10.
Captains Thornton and Hardee, and Lieutenant
Kane all OF the I'd Dragons, have arrived unhurt,
prisoners OF war, Malamoros, and reported them
selves TO Gen Taylor by letter, as kindly treated.
In the cannonade Major Brown, Capt Mansfield
OF the Engineers, Capt Lowd and the garrison were
ali much distinguished General Taylor always
writes coolly. His march. when be expected 10
meet 1000 Mexican horse, was gallant enterprise
The Mexicans have not probably had good and
bad, 1000 troops on the lower Rio Grsnde
