A lale National Inlelligencer contains
extracts from Mexican Journals Of the 18th,
18th and 20'h November. Oao of these
extracts states tina. letter had been re-
ceived at the State Department: Of Mexico
from the Commisary General Of the state
of Snaloa, containing the information "ihal
the North American enemies, who had in
vaded upper California, have been almost
entirely destroyed by Captain liotes, with
small body Of troops under he's command,
aided BY the pat';o:ic inha bitans Of that
peninsular. They captured several of the
American launches, killed a lumber Of
their men, and made some prisoners. The
Monitor, paper published in Mexico, con-
tains detailed version Of the affair, from
which we take the following paragraph:
CAT Los Angeles, formerly the seat Of
the political authorities of the territories.
the Indians, uniting with Tie other inhahI.
,an,s, fell upon and put 10 death one hun
dred and fifty soldiers of the American
squadron; and this news, which is 10 a cer-
tain point confirmed by what we have pre-
yiously published Of the using 10 that town.
and seems natural consequence Of that
movement, is authenticated from various
trustworthy sources of Information.
The n. Y. Evening Post thinks there is
some foundation for these statements; but
tina, we must wait for later accounts to de-
termine what il is. The Mexican reports
of the killed and wounded on our side have
always been greatly exaggerated.
GF Laie accouis from he seat Of war
s.a'e:-
A rumor prevailed a. Brazos on the lib
and was generally believed that sixty
govern ment wagons, with provisions and
specie, had been captured by Canales, on

The EXEMPTION ARTICLE-Thoss who
oppose this article have very little TO say
against the humane principle Of exempting
the homestead from execution. They
complain thai it is not sufficiently definite
or explicit; that although a mans home.
stead and forty acres may be exempt, YET
the products OF his forty acres are not, and
therefore The provision as it stands fails
Of any beneficial! effect, and both it, and
the constitution must consequently be ops
posed, and defeated. If these men ale
honest In their expression, they certainly
&c, very strangely. They cannot deny
that the constitution exempts the 40 acres
and the homestead, which Is certainly
good so far as il goes. Let them then, in
stead Of seeking TO defeat or destroy what
has been done, turn in and help to accom-
plsh what remains uadone. This exemp>
ton Of homestead by the Constitution does
not prevent the Leg stature from making
such further exemption as may be deemed
necessary. The products Of the 30 acres
and every thing else which the people in
their wisdom may sec fit to exempt may
be exempted by The Legislature Let us
receive what Of good is now offered TO us,
and If it be rot sufficient, there is no diff
Guilty in the way Of making it jus, as we
want it,
