Massacre Of americans in california.

This unhappy news appears, spite of
all doubts, to be confirmed. The IntelIi

the Mexican Secretary of State 10 the Sec.
retary of War;, giving an account of the
transaction, and also more detailed YER
sion from a Mexican paper, the Monitor,

Massacre o. the North Americans at
Ctuddd de los Angelos--.Mazdtlan, Oct.
28th.-By the arrival of the French cor.
vette of war La Brilliantc, from San Fran.
cisco and Monterey, of Upper California,
we have the following important news:
The necessity ofcovering that wide ter
ritory at many points, nearly all threaten
cd by the Indians, has compelled the
! Americans to leave in each of them a
most Insignificant number of men; so that
at Monterey, which, a the capitol, is the
most important station to defend, there
were only thirty soldiers al San Fran
cisco, where block house has been erect
ed, only 10 or II men. eHa
At Los Angeles. formerly the seat of
the political authorities of the territory,
the Indians, uniting with the other inhab-
itants, fell ION and put to death one hun
dred and Fifty soldiers OF the American
squadron and this news, which is to a
certain point confirmed by what we have
previously published of the rising in that
town, and seems natural consequence of
that movement, is authenticated from va.
rious trustworthy sources of information.
One hundred and fifty Mormons have
arrived in California from the Sandwich
Islands.
At Monterey is published journal en-
titling itself "the Californian" and all its
articles which are in favor of the invaders)
are written in Spanish.
The commander Of the French vessel
above mentioned, Count de Busset, assures
Us that the North Americans are in the
greatest dread lest the Mexican Govern.
ment should send against them any force
whatever, for they now see that they have
made a very hazardous step in occupying
California with such small means. He
adds that, in his conception, they can dis
pose of no force with which TO attempt
Mazallan.

SAD NEWS,
Loss ofthe U. s, brig Somers, off Vera
Cruz, scith forty of her compa.
ny-oHcerS and men.

Loss OF the q. s. Ortg SOmerS, off Vera
Cruz, nth forty of her compa-
ny-oGcers and men. '
On the 9th ult. in a tremendous squall,
the Somers at the time being alone in the
blockade ofthe labor of Vera Cruz, she
was driven Oh rcefat Green Island, and
totally lost. with one.half of her crew.
One boat got safely ashore, and then Capt.
Semmes, finding the vessel settling under
them, gave an order for every man to
save himself. All simultaneously plung
cd into the water, and grasped the posts,
gratings, spars, coops and other floating
objects at hand Many must have gone
down from the want of any support what
ever; others struggled on frail floats to be
finally drifted on the reefs and dashed in
pieces. Some were driven to sea to be
heard cf no more, and others encounte red
the worst fate which could be apprehend.
ed, in being devoured by sharks. Passed
Midshipman Hynsoh, who so CALAMITY
fired the Creole. under the walls of San
Juan, we regret to say is among the
lost.
The Morgan Dir, on coming out of
Anton Lzardo. was boarded by an officer
from the English frigate Endymion. He
gave the information that it had been as.
certained that eight more of the crew OF
the Somers had been picked up by theMex
leans, after being in the water no less
than thirty hours on hen-coop. Another
party, nu nbering also eight, is said TO
have reached the shore in the same man
ner, one of whom died after landing from
exhaustion. What number of these two
partles-whether both or only the for.
mer-are now in the hands of the Mexi-
cans, is no, understood. The English
and French vessels made the most gallant
efforts - save he crew of the Somcrs.
The Mexicans from the walls Of the castle
heheld the catstrophe, uttering at the
same time shouts of JOY.

Santa Anna is said to be very strong
