LATER FROM MEXICO.

Santa Anna resolved to flght-Pre-

Intelligence from the city of Mexico to the
I'll of April has been received through Havana
papers Santa Anna, il seems, is abont 10 dis
pule Mexican ground inch by inch.
"On the 3lst of March was published in
Mexico the eapitulation Of Vera Cruz Presi-
dent Santa Anna issued an address 10 his
countrymen, in which, among other things, he
says
"tMexicans, Vera Cruz is in the power of
the enemy. Il has fallen, not before the valor
of the Americans or the influence of their
good fortune. sWe ourselves, 10 our shame be
il said, have brought this fatal disgrace upon
our arms by our interminable dissensions
am resolved to go and meet the enemy
Chance may decree that the proud American
host shall take the capital Of the Aztec empire
l shall not behold that disaster, for | shall first
lay down my life in the struggle. Yet the na-
ton shall moi perish | swear that Mexico shall
triumph il my wishes are seconded by sin-
cere and unanimous effort thousand tunes
fortunate for us will prove the disaster Of Vera
Cruz, if the fall Of that city shall awaken in
the breasts Of The Mexicans the enthusiasm,
the dignity and generous ardor of true patri-
olism. Ii will undoubtedly prove the salvation

WHAT is GENERAL TAYLoRq

We have it from good authority, that Gen,
Taylor has not voted for many years. He,
however, stated after the last Presidential cleo
ton, that il he voted at all, il would have been
for Henry Clay-but this,swe presume, more
from personal than party considerations. We
were well convinced that the General does moi
call himself a Wing, nor wish 10 be called sd
however anxious some may be 10 iasten tn
appellation upon him, though at the hazard
his eection,-N. Y Jour. Of Commerce.
It is probable that Gen. Taylor has>not id
much voting for several years. Busy iii lin
Florida war, and actively engaged on the Next
can frontier, and in Mexico, it would be diff
cnt1for him to 90 home 'io election" Al
most every body knows that he would have
voted for Henry Clay; but why he should
have, against his fixed principles, and against
the administration under which he held com
mission voted merely TO crafty personal feel.
ing, we cannot guess or why ANY body else
should presume sucl all uncandid movement,
we do not know.
However well the editors may be convinced
that Gen. Taylor does mol call himself Whe
nor wish 10 be called so, we are satisfied that
within fortg days, Gen. Taylor has said TO a
gentleman about to leave for the United States
Never mind what they say; | tell you, and
you may tell them if you choose, am Wing
and il they have any doubt about il after thai,
tell them am Clay Whig."-Phll. U. 5 Ga.
Zette.
To the same purpose speaks the New York
Courier and Enquirer:
owe speak advisedly, when we say that in
recent letter, after naming Mr.. Clay, Mr.
Crttenden, and other distinguished Wings,
whom he iGen. Taylor) would much prefer
seeing in the Presidential chair he proceeds tc
say, that he has always been a soldier-alway:
the servant of the people--and that he has on
all occasions, endeavored to discharge the du
ties of every station in which he has found
himself. It would be affectation, he adds, to
talk of declining the Presidency if offered tc
him and that in whatever station it may
please his countrymen hereafter 10 place him,
he can only promise that as heretofore, he will
endeavor TO do his duty and meet their reason
able expectations.
GA friend in Washington, who is well adj
vised of what takes place, informs US, that
there is in the War Department letter from
Gen. Taylor, dated the day before the battle oil
Buena Vista, in which he reeiees the tehole con-
duct of the administration topdrds him, in a
way which must have caused no little excite
ment at the White House Will the editor OF
the Union enghten us on this subject? Will
he not induce the Secretary Of War to furnish
copy for publication I"
Delaware weekly Republican. [volume] (Wilmington, Del.) 1841-188?, 1847-04-30


The editor Of the Delaware Gazette take,
exceptions to our remarks addressed 10 cor
respondent few days ago, in reference 10 the
nomination of General Taylor. If he can gather
a grain OF comfort thereirom, he IS welcome to
do SO. We have, however, always supposed,
and still consider the opinion orthodox, that the
editors Of newspapers are sentinels stationed on
the political watch towers to observe the popu-
lar b:eezes and to follow their currents when
they consider their presence will enable
them ultimately 10 correct any obliquties that
they may have received from the propulsion Of
individuals more jealous than judicious OF
carrppt than patriotic. If the people have been
misled, il is the duty of editors to follow in
their wake, show them the error of their way,
and persuade them 10 retrace their steps and
to take The straight and narrow road that true
patriotism keeps in despite Of " demagogues,
bribery and hydra-headed corruption"
Although widely driven from his course by
storms and tempests, the courageous and skill
fol mariner keeps the helm, avoids the break
ers and finally reaches his destined port.
We have much more on this subject in ouI
Uranium, but for want Of time, flor we admit
here we cannot compete with the editor Of the
Gazelte,l being oompositor and pressman, as
well as editor we must dismiss the topic for
the present. We may however have word
on the subject in our next
Delaware weekly Republican. [volume] (Wilmington, Del.) 1841-188?, 1847-04-30
ORIGIN OF CINDERELLA.

The following story, which Burton, in his
Anatomy of Melancholy, quotes from Elian.
is obviously the origin Of one most popular
nursery tales;-
Rhodolphe was the fairest lady in her days
in all Egypt; she went 10 wash herself, and by
chance (her maids meanwhile looking care
lessly to her clothes, an eagle stole away one
of her shoes, and laid it in Pammetic's (the
king of Egypt's) lap, at Memphis; he won
dered at the excellency of the shoe and pretty
foot, but more at the manner of bringing it,
and caused proclamation to be made that she
that owned that shoe should come presently to
his court. The virgin came, and was forthwith
married 10 the king,

In speaking of John Minor Bolts the New
York Express says:--The Election of John Mi
nor Bolts, as representative in Congress,
from the Metropolitan District of Virginia, is
the more gratifying in thai he refused to cater
for any local preiudices, or topIedee himself
any how, not 10 vote for any man for the Pres
idency, that supported the Wilmot Proviso.-
On the contrary ifJohu M. Clayton is a can
ddate, he said, I will vote for him, against
any Loco Foco.' He comes into Congress,
free from bad pledges, and, therefore, capable
Of acting as a Representative in Congress should
act for the hest interests not only of his own
constituents, but of the common country
Indeed, Mr.. Bolts has been attacked in the
Richmond Enquirer, as Southern man with
Northern principles and that paper even
stopped so low as TO ASST him, because he had
been entertained in New York, or listened to
personally, when making speeches here.=-
Thanks TO the intelligence OF that District. they
have, under such fire as this, swollen his ma
iority.

Wines ArTEND.--The Wings of the Fourth
Ward will hold meeting this Thursday
evening at half past seven o'clock, in the
School house, corner Of Sixth & King Streets,
for the purpose Of selecting candidates 10 be
supported at the coming election. There
should be general turn Out SO that the indi-
viduals selected may fairly represent the wish
es of majority Of the Wings of the Ward
If men entertain views which they would
wish carried out they should attend the meet
ing and endeavor 10 have candidates selected
that they could support most heartily. This is
the only course to ensure satisfaction. II is
not however that we fear the selection Of other
than good men, that we urge this attendance
but we DO it because we dislike to hear any
complaints made against the nominees, by
those, particularly, who neglected 10 attend the
meeting. Lei there be full attendance then,
and hatatendance oil itself will be guaranty
Of an easy victory.
