died. Bonham and his brother, and
Frary very coolly left the scene of the
occurrence, without going near the
wounded man, or making the slightest
inquiry, or exhibiting the slightest
feeling or anxiety, in regard TO his

strongest evidence presented OF the
express malice upon which The indict-

The New Orleans Bulletin, advert
ing to the movements Of Santa Anna,
and to the difficulties Of raising money
in Mexico, says:
at is our belief that Santa Anna,
with all his popularity, influence and
acuteness, will be unable to bring into
the field much larger force than that
used at Monterey, viz:-about seven
thousand regulars. This impression
is confirmed by the intelligence that
after all the patriotism Of the Mexicans
and their iervent protestations of will
lingness to meet the foe, the General
in Chief of the Army was compelled
to leave the capital with only 1000
cavalry and 500 infantry. This is but
a lame conclusion of the swelling pro-
logue of the DEGREES Of the Provisional
Government, ordering new leyies Of
$4,000 troops, and commanding the
most extensive preparations for organi-
zcd resistance"

Eater from Vera CRUZ.

We were yesterday fortunate G.
nough to receive letter from Vera
Cruz, dated the 18th ult. II came by
the way of Pensacola, and enables us
to add another link to the chain of
events which characterize our hostile
position with Mexico. Our last ac-
counts from Vera Cruz, to the LIST ult.,
consequently these are several days
later in which interval advices from
the city of Mexico had reached that
port, up to comparatively a recent
date. Our correspondent informs US
that the news Of the surrender Of
Monterey had arrived at the Mexican
capital, but the effect produced on the
populace was not such as might natur-
ally have been expected. No doubt
the coloring given by Ampudia to the
conflicts between our troops and the
enemy, was such as to lead them to be-
lieve that he had Overwhelming num-
bers to contend with, of whom he had
slaughtered more than necessary to
save the national honor. However
that may be, it seems that both the
Government and people are not at all
cast down by this reverse; but on the
contrary, they have displayed the
greatest enthusiasm in their language
regarding the prosecution of the war,
being filled with the hope of coming
out eventually victors in the struggle.
At the last dates from the city OF
Mexico, we are informed that the
Government had received news of the
arrival Of Santa Anna at San Luis Po-
tosi, where he already found himself
at the head Of an imposing force. He
announced that he would be enabled
in the course of very short period of
time. by the levies which had been
made on the several departments and
cities, to collect around his standard a
host of patriots, that would swell his
army to figure sufficiently large to
drive the invaders from the soil.
A good deal of the enthusiasm, OF
which our correspondent speaks, one
might slreWdly guess, was on paper
simply-a cheap way by the by, Of
displaying feryor of support. It is
hardly compatible with reason, If any
extraordinary degree of genuine patri-
otism existed-that sacred feeling, we
mean, which would urge a people to
make any sacrifice to sustain the ma
tional honor-that Santa Anna, their
chosen iavorite leader, should have
been permitted to leave the metropo-
lis with SO small a reinforcement as
5000 cavalry and 1000 infantry, with a
military chest of $4,000. BUTT is a
waste Of time and space to speculate
on Mexico and Mexicans. in regard to
national movements, with the ordinary
data on which we base opinions, as re-
spccts other civilized countries. The
fact is, that national vanity and nation
al ignorance combine to make them in
sensible to any rcverses which are not
absolutely and Overwhelming ruinous.
