The Engagement al Agna FriO.

A SlltiIl correspondent Of the New
Orleans Delta furnishes the following,
which is the only particular account we
have seen Of the action which took place
between Col. Morgan Of the Cd Ohio vol
unteers, and Gen VIrrea's Lancers:
Part of the Cd OHIO, has,eniag to the
relief of Gen. Taylor, fought with over a
thousand Lancers, under Gen. Urea, near
Aqua Frio, for five hours, until artillery
came TO their aid from Monterey, Lieut.
Stewart, of Company c, OF that regiment,
merits the highest praise for his daring
bravery, IN riding through the Mexican
lines, to ask renforcemenls. The Amer
lean force, drawn up in hollow square
yepulscd charge after charge Of the horse,
sustaining a heavy fire from the choppar,
al. Capt. Latham, with his nllemen, was
about charging INTO the chaparral for a
hand to hand fight, but was recalled, as it
appeared evidently the design Of the enc
nv 70 both break the square and induce
the men to charge into the sides of the
road, where, singly, they would not be
able to meet horsemcn There was every
reason to believe that men were i'll ambus-
cadc, ready TO rake. at single volley,
any small body opposed to them. And SC
it afterwards appeared; for, on the first
fire from the cannon into one OF these sus'
pcctcd places, nearly 80 Of the enemy
we're killed. After fifteen minutes fight
with the cannon, the Lonccrs fled in every
direction leaving more than a hundred
on the field. We lost but four killed and
n few wounded. The enemy KEEP, up a
heavy fire from escopetas, but generally
overshot us. Capt. Graham, Or. Master
a, CerraIyo, was shot through the heart
IN the beginning of the fight, and died in
s,an,ly. Col. Morgan was hmscll-cool
brave, determined, with the heart of you'll
and head Of age-as young man but OLE
Texan will always feel i'll battle.

FrOlu Mexico,

We understand that the panic dllfused
among the MeAicans in the castle, lest
they mig hI experience the same disaster
uus fate which had r'lIcn upon the city,
rrincip patty contributed to It's Surrender. $3.50
An awful panic is now spread over the
people. The loss Of the city aud castle,
combined with the last victory of less than
1000 men over 10000, at Bucna Vista,
has spread Consideration over that nlnln'
uted nation.
Gen Scott had Despatched II dcinch-
meat to AIyarado, to collect mulcs, horses
and bccycs. The village Of Nlcdclln, ten
miles from Vera Cruz III the direction oI
Alyarado, had already been occupied by
our troops, had quietly submitted, aud met
with the most Ilbcral treatment oW the
part of our troops. The inhabitants oI
Ayarado will, probably, animated by this
example, be willing 10 furnish their AM,
mails for American gold, 'n,cad of having
them taken from them by lolethle cun,u,
buttons.

One problem is, will there he ANY Gov.

stands at Mexico, there may he greater
difficulty in finding an executive TO treat
for peace than for them to carry on the
war. 1t was reported at the last accounts
that Santa Anna was advancing to the
capital There is no absolute certainty @!
this. According to the last accounts re-
ceiyed at Vera Cruz, the city was distract
ed by conlending factions. There were
every day broIs and bloody fights in the
streets, which was vuIgary called 'rhe

which they had contrived to engage the

their heads of letting party organ die
for the want Of support,
In concluding these remarks We must
say that we believe the party will do
somcthng--that every man will exert him
self, and thus keep above the black flood
of federalism aud treason, which stands
ready to innundate and engulf the party,
and finally go on to future successes, till
the most sanguino wishes Of democracy
are realized. A. j. AlKENS,

This miserable sIX-by-eight sheet Las
been, for some time back, particularly
wise, and wilhal very hoslcrous concern
ing the ail'irs Of the Editor oflhis paper,
Capt. f A Kimball, Of the ARMY
We do sincerely dislike to see such a
course of procedure in relation to the al-
fairs Of this office, and those who are
striving by every honorable means to sus-
tain tic honor Of the State and the couu-
try. These base and IbelIous articles DO
no particular injury in this immediate vi.
cinity, where the people can be npprised
Of the facts by observation; yet they have
tendency to retard the progress Of the
cause Of eulIsiug, at Z distance, and 10
cast bIcmiah upon the character Of
him for whose injury they were fabricated.

have been intimately acquainted with this

the assertions orthc scribblcrs in that pa.
per. and their stories IN the street, to be
wholly untrue. These remarks on our
part, are suggested from a wish to vndi.
cate the honor Of Cant, K. and love of

s,rip these assertions Of tIieir covering, g.

that i, is the great manufacturer of wings

been closely connected with Capt KimbaI
for length of time sufficient to know
something Of his character and affairs; and
as he has left us in charge of his business
we deem it our duty to make known to the
public the facts in the case. Every han.
OrQJh manto whom we have made known
the facts, or who is acquainted with
them, has declared, with us, that the
course which that paper has taken was
mean and dastardly, A few federal pa

RumOrS of Another Bloody Battle.

The Pittsburgh Post of Saturday morning
last contains an account Of bloody battle
fought between Gen. Scott and Santa Anna,
in which the Americans were victorious.-
The loss Of the Mexic ms is said to have been
immense that Of the Americans comparative
ly trihing. Six thousand Mexicans it is re-
ported, have been taken prisoners.
The account Of the battle in the POST
which is the only one we have seen-came
TO Pittsburg by Telegraph, on the 9TH inst.
in the evening. The Eastern papers of that
date have rot yet reached US. Possibly the
report il a false one, though we think it not
improbable that il 4 ia too irue.-t.

alluded also TO the fact that the prisoner had

it will be seen. was sung on last 1hanksgiv-

fact Of lis having been prepared 10y two broth

some few more pieces from the same individ-

backsliding,
And raises the fallen TO virtue again.
Yes! here the gospels light
Shall break lhro' sorrows night,
And Satan-bound souls be released from his
chain.
o! we who have toiled in this vineyard neg

Our gratitude deep future life shall declare;
Still call back the efring, still cheer the de-
jected,
And Heaven will prosper your labor and
care.
Soon will the Savior's voice
Make all your hearts rejoice
Il once was in prison, ye came to Inc there.
Great God! in thy mercy accept our thanks

Cleanse, pardon, and guide US as onward
we move:
And when we shall pass from the land of thc

Receive us, through Jesus, 10 mansions

Around thy throne to bow,
And join the loud anthems Of wonder anC

wife bring grain and wool, brooms and bask-
cts, cloth and other manufactured articles
