possibility of our giving it entire this morning
letter of the 9th ult, from General Taylor at Aqua
Nueva thirty miles beyond Sallo states that he found
the volunteers his arrival at Saltlo somewhat dis
heartened and having soon discovered the principal
cause, inacton he applied the remedy for its removal
He pushed his camp thirty miles the enemy
dence was restored and the utmost enthusiasm took the
place of lethargy and inacivity-the volunteers were
anxious to the enemy and the old general says
his letter, +" won't disappoint them"
The reports circulation, to the advance OF the
enemy, $1,000 strong, Saltllo are, beyond doubt
true and General TAYLOR has by this time, either fought
and whipped the Mexicans again, at Aqua Nueva or has
fallen back on Monterey The great fear entertained by
General Taylor's friends is, that should he fall back

that place and being obliged to keep his whole force
