.aiUanet gf Gen. Taylor fran CGmargo'
The United States steamship Telegraph. Capt.
Aud, arrived about noon yesterday, from bpzoS
81. Jsgo, touching at Layseca and Galveston. BY
this arrival we have dates from Camargo on the TN
lin the syening-from Matamoros TO he ION, and
fom Galveston 10 the morning OF the ION.
The Telegraph had on board, al the time OF her
departure from The Brazos, over 800 sick and dis
charged soldiers She landed st LAvacca compa-
ny OF Germans dlsbanded from the Texan infantry,
and also company at Galveston from the same
eommsndi and brought up TO this place over 2OO,
most OF whom have been prostrated by disease.
by one Of the passengers direct from Camargo
which place he LEFT the 7lh instant, we learn that
an express arrived at Csmargo a. he was about
leaving stating that Col. Harney had been arres'ed
for dsobeyiUg orders. When four days on his
march from San Antonio towards Monterey, Gems.
Tay Tor and Wool sent after him, and had him aud
his men brought back 10 San Antonio, where they
remain under arrest. Other passengers, however,
equally well informed, contradict this rumOr.
General Taylor marched Gor. Opposlts CamaTgO
on the 7lh for Seralyo, where he would oyerIake
General Worth, and fall IN with the troops under
command of Colonies Hays and Smith. la The ad-
Of General Taylor into the interior, he seemed
determined 70 be prepared for any emergency
either Ia advancing or TetreaIlng-es he would not
suffer either officers or 10 take more baggage
than they could pack upon their backs. In conse-
quence Of this a number Of steamers had reached
MhtamOIOs fTeighted down with extra baggage;"
and the quarrel of the Sspadores is thoroughly
crammed with 1t. All the supplies, so far, have
been sent of by pack mules; and 1t is expected that
there Will be about thirty days provision for twelve
thousand men about the time Of the concentration
Seralvoi at which place II is generally believed the
army will remain for some time; ard many are Of
opinion that Taylor will not remove until further ad-
vlsed by the government.
Gen. Taylor believes. notwithstanding the report
Of the advance Of large force from San Luis
PotOsl to Satllo, that he enter Monterey and
even proceed 10 Salullo without any opposition
Whatever.
The troops on the road now between Camsrgo and
Monterey number near $4,000, and no volunteers
suffered to 90 who could not stand long
march and were perfectly willing. In consequence
Of this, the regiments that are left were much
duced, very few Of them exceeding 500 men, and
some less These regiments are from Mississippi

Gen. Patterson has been eft ia command Of all
the lower country between Camargo and the mouth
Of the Rio Grande, and he bad been instructed by
General Taylor TO issue order, prohibiting the
entrance OF all persons into the mouth of the river
at Camargo, who had not positive business in the
country. Gen. Butler was the designed for this
command, but the nOn-arrval Of Patterson at Ca

much annoyed at not beng allowed to accompany
the advance.
In Camargo there were between GOO and 700
volunteers IN the hospitals, and they were dying
very fast. so large number sick that il
required near a whole regiment to attend them.
Those whom he Tennesseeans left behind seemed to
be particularly unfortunate So enfeebled were they
that they had to call on the Aabam0ns not only 10
attend the sick, hut to bury the dead. AS fast as
these men get able TO leave, they discharged and
sent home. In fact, General Taylor shows dis
position to discharge all who are not disposed to
| serve out the campaign.
AmPudia has issued another extraordinary "pro-
cama," ;" warning the citizens, pain ofdeath, not
to trade with the Americans and the AlcaIde of Ca
margo had also put forth "bando" prohibiting the
Mexicans from working on our steamboats Some
ofthe deck hands, accordingly, ceased their labors
but on an ntlmatlOn that this functionarys neck
might be brought in close proximity with a llssO,
he reented, and the operatives resumed their labors.
