From Mexico.

New YoRK. Jan. ga gentleman fron
Acapulco informs US that only the artil-
lery of the Liberal army numbering about
2,OcO was engaged in the battle of the
2lst ult. The main body of the troops
under Rochaas failed to come up owing, rs
was believed, to treachery. The artillery,
which was under the command of Col.
Halle, M American from San Francisco,
was cut SO pieces, owing to the fact that
MiramOn's artillery was much heavier and
longer range than those of the Liberals
Col. Halle escaped to Mazatlan, where at
last accosnts, he had purchased and was
fitting out two small vessels with which
he inteneed to proceed to Mezsuiila foN the
purpose of capturing the two vessels seized
in that port by Airamon.
When Miramon left the Capital he had
5000 troops IN command, 1000 of which,
under Marquese, stopped at Gaudalagara
to cover Miramon's retreat, SHOULD he have
been forced to make one. 4Iarquese, i,
will be recollected, was at last previous
accounts, imprisoned in Mexico for his
seizure of the So 100000 conducta at
Tcpic.
