Our city was thrown into quite fever yesterday
evening by the receipt Of some rumors OF battle
between Gen. Taylor and the Mexican forces under
Santa Anna.
From ali we can learn the report of battle is found
cd in anticipation upon letter from Santa Anna da
ted the 17h ult and published In III Iris EspdnoI, OF
the Path nit printed in the City OF Mexico From 1t
we learn that Gen. Taylor had encsmPed at place
called Aqua Nueva, (New.Water) about 20 leagues
from San Salvador from which Santa Anna dates his
letter 10 the Minister OF War.
He also states II ss his opinion that Gen Taylor had
ntrenched himself there for the purpose OF giving nlm
battle that he has forces under him amounting 10
about 600 men, with twenty pieces of artillery ootn
estimates universally known TO be tasel ana r
his Government of his intention 10 give 10 uen Taylor
battle on the 18th 1--WE presume the 2st UT uougn u
is printed the 18th and anticipates the most decided
success.
upop the above facts Now by way of the BraIos we
have information from the forces under Gen Taylor 10
the 10Th ult and he was then on his way 10 Monterey
having determined to abandon bis inuencnnenu NJ
Aqua Nueva and is possible that Santa Anna was in
pursuit and may have come up with the American forces
In time 10 engage them before they reach Monterey.

10 attack Gen Taylor simultaneously IN front ana rear
and that Santa Anna had warned those ofcers under
him not strike blow until be gave the signal Tor the
