scathed through the leaden storm: ball
passed through his over-coat was the only
harm done him. This battle lasted from
early morn until about 4 in the evening,
when SANTA ANNA drew off his forces to
Aqua Nueva to await reinforcements.
This battle was fought at a rancho called
Buena Vista, six miles from Saltillo in a per.
feet plain.
General TAYLOR occupied his position
undisturbed, on the 24th and 2eth, and at
the latest dates was holding it. The killed
and wounded on the American side is said
to be 700, and 1000 killed and wounded of
the Mexicans. An Adutant General of the
Mexicans was taken prisoner. An exchange
of prisoners had taken place, and General
taylor redeemed his promise to Col. MAR
SHALL to get back CAss1us NJ. CLAY and
his party, by taking Mexican prisoners
enough to exchange for them.
General Wool greatly distinguished HIM
self in this action, and all the officers fought
like heroes. Col. MORGAN of the Ohio vo.
untcers, cut his way through large bodies
Of Mexicans and arrived at Marin. A de-
tachment of three companies under Col.
GEDDINGs, was sent to his aid, and the
whole party are said to have arrived safe ut
Monterey. This reinforcement of Colonel
MoRcAN's, gives General TAYLOR as many
men as he has lost.
The Mexicans have possession Of Ger
ralvo, China, Micr, and all the towns bo.
tween Camargo and Monterey.
A train of 100 loaded Wagons on their
way to Monterey from Camargo under an,
escort Of 80 volunteers vas captured by a
body Of Mexican cavalry a few miles be-
yond Marin, three of the men made good
their escape, the rest were taken prisoners.
Although SANTA ANNA has been com.
PEELED to retire, it is thought there would be
another battle, but no fears were cnte rtained
as to the result of it, should such be the
case. The Mexican army arc said to be ina
furnishing condition, and that during the bat
tlefrequent skirmishcs were seen to takeplaco
among the men ovcrthe dead bodies of Anne.

numbers, chiefly to the United States. All
the ready ports are crowded, but the Chro-
nlcle says, untortunately they are those
whose loss will be severely felt as they
possess pecuniary means and are not desti-
tute." Freight for steerage passengers has
risen to guineas. Landlords are aiding
their peasan,ry to emigrate.
Mr.. r. S. Guinness, of Doublin, has issu
ed an address 10 his poorer tenantry in the
county of Wexford: Offering f3 to each
person in family, provided the whole 90

the latter sum to be paid on arrival in New
York. Quebec, or any other American port
that may be fixed upon.
The progress of starvation among the
Irish still continues. Rev Mr.. Newell
writes that in the parishes of Oranmore and
Ballimacourty Sd persons have perished
from lack of food since December. The
new poor law, proposed by the Government,
is strongly opposed. w. F. A. Delane,

Murder of DR.. A. Burt.

The Augusta Sentinel Of yesterday says ::
" A most aggravated murder we regret to
learn. was committed upon D.. A. BURT Of
Edge6eld District S. G.. who resided some
ten or fifteen miles above Hamburg, by one
of his own negroes, yesterday morning.
The circumstances, as related to US, are
these: the DR., attempted to chnstise him, for
which purpose he had broken off the branch
of a peach tree, with which he inflicted a
few stripes, when the negroe seized an axe,
and almost instantly killed him, notwi.h.
standing the DR.. attempted to escape. The
negro was arrested and is IN custody

From the Army,

The news from the seat of war that has
reached us is Of the most cheering character.
Our arms under the gallant TAYLOR, have
once more been successful, and given the
.Mexicans to understand that even with the
invincible Santa Anna as their leader, defeat
and disgrace must be their portion. The
following particulars of this. battle which
has added new glories to the already bril-
liant name of Taylor, reached lis by the last
mail.
SANTA ANNA began the battle on the 22d
by various mannuvres, attempting to out
flank and terrify Gen. TAYLOR. On that
day the battle was confined to skirmishing
and cannonading, without much effect on
either side. In the meantime, SANTA AN.
MA sent large force to TAYLoR's rear, but
the artillery opened upon them with. great
effect and compelled them to withdraw. On
the 2sd the battle opened ia earnest and
ragged during the day with great violence.
Tho Americans did not wait to Be attacked
but with the. most daring inpetuosity char.
ged upon tie enemy with loud hnzzas, their
officers leading The way. Gen. TAxLon on:
his war steed, was every where directing
and cheering on his men and passed un.

The Government has introduced bill IN
Congress for an amnesty to those engaged
in the late evolutionary attempt at Mazatlan,
save only General Mora, who is no, thought
deserving of a pardon.
We find another letter from Santa Anna,
dated 18th ult. from San Salvador. in which
he denounces what he calls the assassina.
ton by the invaders Of twenty-six individu.
ala, Inhabitants OF Aqua Nueva, who had
taken refuge at the Ojo de Aqua de Catana.
He makes this charge on the authority of
General Andrade, whose letter he adds; and
he says the facts are confirmed from other
sources. Santa ANN bids the Secretary of
War say to the Vice President that he
. will very soon take satisfacti.n for the ex-
cess. committed by these men, which are
an outrage to civilization and the human
race" General Andrade says that, besides
the twenty.six assassinated," sixteen were
made prisoners, and that they were all
:peaceable citizens. There is, of course,
'exaggeration about this, but the truth will
hardly be cleared up till we receive de-.
spatches from General Taylor
