HORRIBLE SCENES IN MEXICO.

The papers. says the Sun, are filled with
details Of the fighting. robberies aud murders
committed in the city by the opposing armies
and the handful. In fact, that beautiful city
was literally converted into a battlefield.
Streets were barricaded by the belligerenis.
whose deadly FIRE raked the principal tho
roughfares and killed many Of the unoffend-
ing inhsb itsnts, and even women. Dwellings
were plundered and stores robbed. Well
dressed citizens were waylaid in open day,
robbed Of therr watches and jewelIry, and in
many instances murdered by the Iavless SOL
diers and bapdiiii securing the streets. For
several days anarchy reigned supreme fhro-
ughout the devoted city. All law was at an
end, and one hundred and sixty thousand per
sons were exposed to the brutal passions of
the Infatuated mob Of soldiers aud robbers.

GIN. TAYLCR.-SI6NIFIcANT EXPRESS
IONS. Ii is with regret We notice in some
Of our papers, extracts from letters pupor
ting TO be written by persons in the immedi
ate confidence Of Gen. Taylor.
Many of The expressions said to be utter
ed by him are so al variance with the charac
Ter of The man, and his usual mode Of adj
dressing his officer. and meu, and are SO Low
and vulgar, that we take this opportunity Of
denying then, in toto. The expressions at
tributed to the General are, Boys, gire EN-
Jessie, and 'Gire EN- hell ETC. etc.
By reference TO the Official correspon-
dence. and the toue Of all respectable letter
writers, it will be perceived that in no on
INSTANCE has the General been charged with
descending in the scale of the gentl emau and
the soldier, and we venture TO say that th'
expressions attributed 10 him haye their or
isin only in the excited imagination Of Ger
tain letter writers.
This taking liberty with mans NAM
whose exalted station and general coolnes:
and bravery in battle place him so far nbOv
these manufacturers OF words, is The heigh
of presumption. and we are surprised tina
they were ever permitted to find place in
