The details of that sanguinary and bloody
contest are looked for with more intense enx-
iety than we have ever seen evinced since
the tocsn of war sounded, the drums beat TO
arms in Texas and Mexico. The opinion
prevails that the story of the slaughter OF our
brave Army, officers and men, has not been
told. There are gentlemen in our midst a /
tached to TIE profession of arms, whose judy
meni in such matters is entitled to high re-
gard, who express the opinion that The num-

mating his intention of entering the city
the next day. This correspondence is
shrewdy supposed TO be part OF drama,
the end of which is to raise this seemingly
patriotic, but really ambitious and unprn-
cipled man, to the supreme Dictatorship.
On the 9th ult. then, Santa Anna arrived at
the capital, amid rejoicings more enthusiastic
than had ever been Witnessed before. The
people seem TO behold in him their saviour,
and were almost frantic with Joy. The tes-
timonies of attachment TO his person were
unbounded. The next day the most vigo
rous measures so far as declarations 60, were
taken by the provisional Government. A
levee of 10000 men TO recruit the army
was ordered. acquisitions were forthwith
transmitted to all the principal places Ia the Re-
public, Tor an immediate furnishing of their
respective quotas of men. Pue bla and the
whole OF the towns within circuit of 90 or SO
leagues OF The metropolis, are stated 10 have
complied With the greatest alacrlty. A regl-
ment was Immediately raised IN Pueba on the
arrival there of the news of the levy OF $4,000
men. To facilitate the arming md equipping
of this large body of troops the Government
have ordered that duties on munitions OF wal
shall cease to be levied until further notice.
In view OF this extensive armament OF the
Mexican people, and, putting implicit faith in
the truth OF the preceding news, lot their au-
thenticity we can have no reasonable doubt
from the source through which they reach uS,)
It would be madness 10 temporise any longer
with this Infatuated people. The war must
now be prosecuted with vlgor; such indeed,
seems by the late Intelligence from Washington
to be the traced out by ouy AdministTa-
ton. If any hope has ever been entertained Of
pacific policy on the part OF Santa Anna,
they must be abandoned His late conduct
shows that he has trown off the mask, il he ev'
