From the 81 LINUS Republican.
The Steamer Ambassador Burned.
GRfiAT LOSS.

The splendid steamer Ambassador left
this port OF Wednesday last for New Or
leans. Soon after, she grounded at Car
rolls Island, Just below Jefferson Barracks,
and lay in that position until Sunday, about
io'ciocE, when, with the assistance Of the
Tobacco Plant, and after taking out a great
portion of her cargo, She vas relieved, and
proceeded TO take in h,r Cargo. Her
frc;gh; consisted Of corn, wheat, some 800
o" $50 bales of hemp, and a quantity of
flour. They continued to take in cargo g!
nigh, and about 10 o'clock. a candle fell
from its place and immediately cnmmuni-
Gated to a bale Of lcmrin Tie hold. Great
ff'rtS were made 10 stop the progress of
the fire, bat they were uIavailing. Mean
while, the officers of the Tobacco Plant,
which was along aside, rendered all the as
si$tancr possible. in removing the fmni-
ture Of the burning boat, while the flames
were confined below. Finding all efforts
truitleSs, the magnificent steamer was cut
adrift, and soon was Il mass OF flame. She
again grounded near the place Of the first
disaster, and there burned TO the waters
edge.
We have not been able, as yet, to ascer-
tain the extent of the loss. 1T is estimated
that about 5000 sacks OF grain were still
on shore, an! the 7obccco Plant had some
200 bales Of hemp on her deck. The cat
tic on the guards of Tie boat all escaped
and made theiI way TO the shore. Still, as
the boat was very heavily lrcishted-proba-
bly, to the extent Of 700 or 500 tons-the
loss of cargo must be very great. The loss
of the boat is equally severe. She was a
splendid vessel, finished as a passenger
boat and intended for the cotton trade
She was worth, ii is supposed, 100000 and
there was insurance only 10 the amount OF
$4,000. Capt. Brennan was the principal,
If not the sole owner.
We cannot hear of the loss Of any lives,
but the deck passengers, Of whom there
were a good many, lost everything which
they possessed. They were taken on board
the Tobacco Plant, and brought to Il is
city, and yet remain on her. This is a case
which appeals strongly to the bencvolencc
of our citizens, and we hope that relief
will be Immediately granted to the unfor-
tunateS

AID N CoMFoRT.-One of the most
ridiculous instances of disqualification ev-
'er witnessed, is now seen in the conduct Of
the Wing press of this country. After de-
.nouncin- the war with great vehemence, it
seizes upon the fact of its unparalleled sue
cess as material for Wing capital. The
following extract from the Diario, a Mexi-
can journal, will show how much our coun.
try is indebted to Wing partizanship in this
war:
by the last arrival from New Orleans,
we have been placed in possession of late
papers from the United States, and a ma
j0rty citizen mdgn0ninlousy denOrnce
and condemn this uar against This country
as s~infdmous, unhoiy Gnd u~nrighteous.'
Mericdns can derire COMFORT Gr0n1 Me
fact that the greater part If the people IF
The United States are opposed to this wdr,
Jas their papers shoe, and tile base man
who is al the head If government mU be
|eriHed from p0wer. THE sympaMiies #
ONE ENTIRE rARTY an that country IS on
or side; and ling wiN Me.ricO remember
,Msir p0tritHsm.'
Mexico may feel grateful for the 'com-
fort afforded by Wing denunciations of the
war, hn: the people of the United States
will understand at the same time, what es-
innate to place upon Wing party leaders.
Political harpics have seized upon the
fame of Gen. Taylor, are appropriating it
to their selfish uses-or rather are laboring
to appropriate it to themselves. In this,
they cannot succeed. The old hero will not
suffer his l%aurels to be thus furnished. His
reply to the New York wirc-workcrs, shows
|that he understands such movements, and
cannot he "sedhy such schcmers. He has
declared the present war to he right, s with
what consistency can those who denounce
it as "~unjust and infamous claim to be his
champions and especial friends. On this
important issue the Wings and Gen. Taylor
are in direct conflict. But what will not
WIisgery do for the sroils?-H. Lo,as

goons; sergeants Moore Whitehurst and

ten p~rivates, lst dragons; one private of

The wounded were Gen kearncy; Lieut..
Warner, Typographical Engineers; Captains
Gillespie and Gibson, of tho volunteers,
and Mr.. Robidoux. interpreter, and ten
~prirates of the lst dragons.
The day after the battle the General
moved on slowly towards San Diego,
having on the way one or two skirmishes.
He arrived at San Diego on the 10th, and
finding there moro men than were necessary
to garrison the town, he proposed to Com.
Stockton, (the men being chiefly sailors
and mariners, not under the generals or
ders, ITO let him have a portion of them,
and march on the TuebIa de los Angles,
the heart of the Mexican power in CaIifor-
MIA.
To this the commodore, assented, and on
the 2Sth ofDecember, Gen. kearny march
ed with about 500 men on the Pueblo, ac-
companied by the commodore. On the Slh
of January the enemy showed himself in
force, to dispute the passage ofthe San Ga
briel river. After a short exchange of ar
tillery, Gen. Kearny ordered the nights
charged, and drove him from his position.
The next day, Jan. 9th the enemy again
offered battlc-was defeated and sued for
peace.
Our loss in both affairs WIGS only two kill
ed and fifteen wounded. The enemy's force
was 600 men and four pieces Of artillery
Their loss is variously estimated at from 40
to so in killed and wounded. All is now
quiet in California.

Further call upon TolunteerS.-We under
stand that the President Of the United States
is about to call Immediately about 5000
more volunteer troops into the public ser
vice. They are principally intended to fill
UP the place of the volunteers whose time
is about to expire. 1t is probable that
many Of them will renew their engagements;
but to provide for any possible contingency,
it is best to make the present call.
These troops ar" intended to strengthen

ia Fe, the army in the direction of the Rio
Grande, and the column of Vera Cruz
