a translation of Santa Annals official report
of the, last fight in which he was worsted

this affair published in the above paper, Of
the 25tll ultimo, and then append the Mex
lean.
From four French gentlemen who left
the city of Mexico on the 18th, and Puebla
on the 10th of the present month, we have
received intelligence of a very important
nature, concerning the state of affairs in
those quarters.
Gen. Lane having arrived at Perote, was
there joined by Capt. Walker and his COM
mand, both advanced together on the Puebla
road, till they reached the town of vreyes.
At this place, Capt. Walker, by order of
the Commanding General, took up his line

SIR:-His Excellency the provisional

pressed with his duty towards his country,

cxtinguishedb by our civil dissensions; desir-
ing, also, to manifest; to the population of
the metropolis Of Mexico, and other cities
in the power Of the enemy, whose fate is
mot indifferent to your Excellency; in fine,
considering that i'll all well organized coun-
tries, generals Of the army have to answer
before a tribunal for the faults they have
committed, and the revcrscs which they
have experienced in their campaigns, he,
The Provisional President, directs that
your Excellency transfer the c~ommand-in-

'been deceived into the hope of aid and cornort.o
Washington Union.
The above is m perfect keeping with the uni
form course OF the Government paper. A degree
oil recklessness utter abandonment of truth and
justice, has been'exhbited by Mr.. Folks organ
from the commencement of our difficulties with
Mexico, truly notifying to all who wish the ma.
ton to preserve its dignity and integrity In the
brief extract at the head of this article are three
distinct falsehoods- too that have been
rung in the ears of the public from the same organ,
until they have become familiar tune
l. The frst OF these Is the indirect statement
that the Administration has used all proper efforts
to obtain peace with Mexico. Where are the pro-
postlonsH Upon what terms have our rulers pro-
posed peace? The Union does not tell us. Mr..
lRIsT, 1t is true, is sent as negotiator; but ara
not the terms upon which he is authorized to treat
such as Mexico cannot accept? such as 10 nation.
not lost to all sefrespect, could accept until driven
by the power OF the sword to the extremity of de-
spair? Let the friends of the Administrator, an.
swer these questions, before they claim the credit
of having used all proper endeavors to terminates
by honorable peace, the unfortunate conflict be.

caused the prolongaton of the war, and that upon
them rests the responsibility Of its continuance
The Union, Iii its insane rawlings against the

position to the war-taunts II ON with tho NOM. ~

they are the cause of the continuance OF bos,;,,os

old charge, that the Wings are the friends or Nov
lco that they give them laid and comfart ~ /.
charge that should blister the tongue of the ms,
who utters it with eternal burnngs. The IJn;o,
mas contributed more to arouse the hopes of Mexico
by the constant repetition OF this SANDER than tho
editor would have done had he filled the Golfers
OF their nation with Treasury notes. 1t has led
Inc MeXicans to believe that, in this country there

A New AND IMPORTANT INVENTION. which
does away with the present system of rope MAKING
has just been made by Mr.. Whippe, of Providence
II. l. BY this process, rope can be made in the
piece mile long, OF to an indefinite length-in q
square roon-thus doing away with the ne cessty
for long ropewalks. Two twists are made at a revo-
luton, without twisting or turning at the end of
the rope, as is now the custom The strand is
formed and rope laid in more perfect manner, and
at far greater speed than is now attained From
lou to 2OO feet of two inch rope can be thus made
In minute; smaller sizes much faster. One man
could tend number OF these machines at once
lf this invention is carried on, process will soon
be in use not only doing away foreign importations
and controlling our own market, but exporting to
other countries Two-thirds of all the cordape
made in this country is from dew-rotted American
hemp, at an average value of 5 cents, though the
present rate is cents

GEN. WORTH WOUNDED.

After long interval, and that too, when the; Ne
cullar situation of affairs before the walls OF Mex
CO, caused every one to desire further news, we
have later intelligence from our Army, received by
our Pony Express, in advance Of the mail.
tappears that the attempt Of Mr.. Trist to nego-
tate a peace.as proved aborive, and that hostili-
ties have been resumed between the opposing ar
'mies-that another battle has been fought, but no
other particulars given than that the MeXicans have
again been defeated.
The news comes TO us in such form as, while
it bears every evidence of truthuness, still leaves
us douby anxious to learn more
The statement of the revolt at Pueba, and Of
the loss of the Americans there and at Mexico, a.
mounting to sat least two thousand men,, comes
in such questionable shape" as to induce us tc
place no confidence in it. The ''two thousand
report probably originated from the loss of killed
and wounded in the two battles fought on the 10Th
,ult
1t will be seen that, according to the Vera Cruz
Sun of the latest date, from two to three Thousand
men would shortly be the way to re -intorce Gen
Scott, which, with the additional force detached
from the army of Gen. Taylor, will he amply suffi
cient not only TO subdue the City Of Mexico but I,
hold in check. and dispense any body of troops tina
the Mexicans can probably get together.
We proceed to give all the intelligence received
by the Express, leaving our readers to draw thei
own conclusions as to the existing state of affair
IN that quarter and awaiting, Gas will our readers,
further adylces with great anxiety.
