Capture Of Monterey-Eracuation By the
Mertcan Troops.-We have seen copy of an
extra published by the Galveston News, dated
10th inst, which states that the schr. Blanche
Z. Sayre, Capt L. c. Wetmore, arrived at
Galveston the day before, having left Brazos
Island on Wednesday, 9TH inst Capt. Wet
more stated that a bearer of dispatches had
arrived at Brazos Island from Monterey with
official dispatches from Gen. Taylor to Captain
Hill, Quartermaster at that place. Details of
the assault and captulation of Monterey, which
purported to be official, were read to Capt.
Wetmore, as he states, IN which the loss sus-
tanned by our army during the three days con-
f1ict, amount to five hundred killed and woun-
ded-three -hfths of whom were among the
former.
The Mexican loss was declared in this Off
cial report to have been 21OO killed and woun-
ded, and 400 made prisoners. We do not
give the least credit to this statement of the re-
Iative loss. There must be huge mistake
somewhere. The enemy's troops had march
ed out of Monterey before the departure of
the bearer of dispatches above referred to.
Shortness of the Cotton Crop In the Mad
ison Journal of the Doth ult., paper publish
ed at Richmond, in this State, we find para
graph somewhat more definite in relation TO
the cotton crop than such articles generally
are The Journal says: " The crop of cotton
in this parish being all open, and consdera-
bic portion picked, we can form some estimate
of the comparative amount which will be sent
to market. In this immediate neighborhood,
the crops are quite as good, if not better, than
in any other portion of the parish"
The paragraph then gives the estimated a
mount of some six plantations, as furnished
the editor, by which it appears that on one
plantation where 500 bales were made last
year, not more than $50 will be made this
year. On another plantation it will be 90 a.
gainst lis E; on another 10 against l25; on
another SO against 100; on another 90 against
over 400; on another. making the sixth, the
deficiency will be about 60 bales-last year S
