THE MORMON WAR RENEWED.
BATTLE AT NAUVOO.
FROM TWELVE TO FTEEN KILLED.
GREAT EXCITEMENT,
&c. &c.

BY the 81. Louis Republican, Of the l4h inst,
we learn that battle took place between the
Mormons and the anti Mormons, on the 18th.
ut appears that the antes, (whe had encamped
the day previous within about three miles OF the
city of Nauvoo,) on the morning of the 18th took
up their line of march for the city.
On ascertaining the movements of their foes,
the Mormons beat to quarters, mustered be-
tween three and five hundred men, and went
forth to meet their adversaries.
Abe antagonistic parties met about one mule
east of the Temple, when battle commenced
The "Sants" and the "Gentiles /" fred upon
each other for two hours, but the distance was 80
great that their leaden missiles were materially
deprived of their death-dcaling properties.
Having somewhat appeased their wrath, the
belligerants drew off, each party returning to Its
original position in the morning.
The Mormons in this affair had one man killed
and two badly wounded.
The antics, numbering upwards of eight hum
dred. returned to camp, with loss OF from eight
to fifteen killed.
The excitement was very great, IN the vlcinity'
and it was generally supposed that the battle
would be resumed, either that evening or the
next morning.

We have received New Orleans dates to the
18th. The steamer Sea, Captain Jenkins, arrived
there on the llth, from Brasos Santiago, via Port
Lavacca and Galveston. She lef the Brasos on
the 9th, and Galveston on the OH instant. She
brought Major Mckee of the army, and thirty dis
charged volunteers; also three companies to Indi-
IN Point, who are TO proceed to San Antonio to
join Gen. Woods command
The news from the army is without importance.
On the Both ut., Gen. Worth was encamped ut
Seralvo, where all was quiet. 1t is said to be a
delightful town.
Gen. Smith was encamped at Pugu Aquada on
the 3lst. Il he health OF the command was ex-
cellent. 1t was encamped on high ground near
a clear steam Of water.
A letter from Camargo, dated 10Th ult., states
that there was considerable sickness among the
Mexicans.
Col. Peyton was still with Gen. Taylor, and
would 60 on with him.
Major Gen. Butler had established his head
quarters at Camargo.
The British steamship Arab arrived off the Ba-
lie, below New Orleans, on the 9th, from Vera
Cruz, whence she sailed on the Sd inst
She encountered very rough weather.
The news by her relates chiefly to the arrival Of
Santa Anna.
1t i. said that he told one of the owners Of the
Arab before she arrived at Vera Cruz, that there
would be no necessity for running the blockade
that the steamer would be allowed TO enter with.
out any difficulty.
The Lieutenant of the St. Marys, went on board
the Arab and was introduced by Almonte to Santa
Anna, who was below, lying in his bed. When
the Lieutenant reappeared on deck, he gave the
owners permission to pass the blockade.
Santa Anna on landing was received by a few
friends his reception was not public one. He
was evidently disappointed. His health was in
firm, and continued SO up to the time the Arab
left Vera Cruz.
On his way to Mexico, he stopped at his Hdei-
enda, in the vicinity ofJalapa, where he remained
up to the latest accounts received from him.
1t is stated that he would leave there for the
capital as soon as his health would permit
The army at San Luis Potosi had declared
again in favor of Paroles, WHO'S prisoner in the
castle of Pcrote so it was rumored at Vera
Cruz.
1t was impossible to tell who, among the aspi-
rants for power the people really preferred; they
seemed TO be indifferent about tn, matter.
The day the Arab left flag OF truce was sent
ashore by Commodore Conner, and the same oc-
curence had taken place on two or three occa-
sions previously.
