LATE FROM THE SEAT OF WAR.
TRIUMPH OF THE AMERICAN ARMS.

We have been furnished during the week with the
suboined exciting details of the operations Of oul
Army on the Rio Grande, OF course, we cannot
vouch for the accuracy Of all the reports, but sup
pose them to be in the main correct, regards the
principal events which they communicate. In the
victories which have been gained, General Taylor
and brave little Army have, by their intrepidity
and valor, proved themselves worthy OF the high
confidence which the country reposed in them and
we much regret that, whilst rejoicing In these
triumphs of our arms, the nation has to mourn the
loss of some of its bravest and most skiful officers

General TAYLOR marched from Point Isabel the after
noon Of the 7h at the head Of about 1000 men, for his Camp
opposite Matamoros, carrying along with him large supply
of provisions The Ff sailed the afternoon, and before
she got beyond hearing distance the firing Of artillery
heard supposed be within eight nine miles Of Point
Isabel.
On the same evening the FHrf fell in with the United
States squadron consisting Of the gaes Cumberland Kari
tan, and Potomac, sloop John adams, and brig Soners
der the command of Commodore Conner, who ordered the
Ft to return with him to the Brasos and bring important
dispatches which he wished forward to New Orleans The
Ft accordingly returned with the squadron and remained
the Brasos until day, (sh) when she again sailed
with the Commodore's dispatches.
It appears that Commodore Conner, having heard at
Vera Cruz that hoses had on the Rio Grande
and that General Taylor in difficulty instantly sailed
the Basos, render all the assistance in his power Up

have invited Gen. Sam. Houston TO supper at fifty
cents head, al which he will be expected 10 make
a speech and crafty the curiosity OF the people gen
orally as 10 the stuff out Of which Texas manufac-
lures heroes. w ben The General comes he will
doubtless explain how it that he omitted 10 re-
cali or succor the volunteers from the United States
who were charged with the defence Of GolIsd and
San Antonio and there left 10 be murdered by the
Mexicans Perhaps he will also tell as whether,
during the six years of his Presidency he exercised
or attempted TO exercise any Executive function
within one hundred miles of The Rio Grande, and
also the reasons why this Texan Congress did not
think it safe to meet Austin for several successive
wears II the General can explain all this satisfac
lorily it will be well worth fifty cents head 10 his
admirers. though the Philadelphians had him much
cheaper-some say as low as sixpence sight.
We like Hous,ons steady hostility TO Annexation
so long as hostility in Texas was not absolutely
hopeless and that is all we eau like OF his public
career.
