Mexican news.

Copious extracts will be found in this
weeks paper giving US news from the army
and Mexico up to the 25th ult4 1t is ru-
mored that battle has been fought at Sal
tillo between Gen. TAYLOR and SANTA AN
Ma, and that our arms were again victorious,
the loss on either side not stated. 1t seems
that SANTA ANNA is determined to remain
no longer inactive, but about to try in per-
son, the valor Of our troops.
1t is also rumored that Vera Cruz has
been evacuated by the Mexicans, but this is
not credited. The next news will be looked
for with interest, as stirring events must
have taken place there before this. @ss

The Palmetto Regiment.

= By extracts and a letter from our CORES
pondent it will be seen, that the Palmetto
Regiment is now at the Island of Lobos.
The men were all in good health with the
exception ola few cases of mumps. We
are informed by our correspondent, that a
portion Of the Volunteers recently called
out, will be- ordered to Monterey, and that
our Regiment will accompany Gen. Scott
in his attack upon Vera Cruz, which it is
thought, will not take place now before the
last of this month in consequence of the
want of vessels for transportation.

write few lines, and have but little news
to communicate.

tured by Mexican cavalry on the % ult.-
This is now confirmed.
Gen. Taylor, with Majors Squadron, Briggs

He has taken his position at Aqua Nueva
All the troops will be there day after to-
morrow, except few, who will remain in
town, and Pixies squapron, which has gone
to Polomus. The enemy are still near US,
but will not attack us. Yours, &c.
There is little doubt now but that Gen.
Minon will give Gen. Taylor considerable
trouble. A regiment of Texas rangers is
very much needed. They should be allow

Taylor wants light troops who thoroughly
