T.,c Nicls1urg Whig of the 22d contains, from the Ho istou Telegraph, the following particulars otour late s!or.ous victory in New Mexico, already auroILcad JY telegraph:
 Oar ,r4lIa.t Sill Scuwy, with his ragged Tex pz.'' ss gained another victory over the teierdis in Nov Mexico. The importance of this victory ,.li be understood when the strategy that el to 1t ls explained.
 Glode.ta is the name of a canon aoout 23 mics east of auta Ff, on what is called the Od Fort Union raad Fort Union lies q little north ot the St. Louis and santa Fe trading road, and is "9C"t 70 miles from Santa Fe. From the east oi the yngu4taius there are two passes, one through lhls canon and one tt Gliiste0. Fort unlon, the strongest for. in New Mexico, has been heaFly .rlrr ,sued not only with regulars, but with pow lrliI detachment of Plkes Peak volunteers 1t l9 . be observed that Pike's Peak is about 2UO mics lia-5a of $ uta Fe, and the population is made u2 oF4,.veutuIous men from the North western State'l They 9l.3 naturally abOti0nsts, and being wth0n, fbe lies gf family, have volunteered en mass III an. swer 10 Cauby's call for help against the Texans. There was q regiment of them at NaI erue' anu -her were driven from the field.
 < flor tIe battle of Val Verde, Sibley pushed on and occlg.ed Northern New Mexico, including santa Fr. Ueto9k Santa Fe on the 10th ot March, ,fd since tiat ha/ established his headquarters there On taking possession he raised the Conied- risltp ,o. made Of a captured United states hiS' op tle federal flagstaff, had a salute fired from a '
 cantured United States band.
 On tIe nj ght of the 23d, Sibley, then at AlOu- ,1cruue learned that the enemy, 2,2UO strong, hld left Fort unfoH on the 22I. This is the same we have heard via St. Louis. Pyrom was m com ,,ia,3 afl 50 Texans at Santa Fe. Cen. Sbey at once sent Major Shropshire forward to reinforce linn. with orders to hold canOG Glorletta at all hazards. He also sent Col. Scurry tG Galisteo, 10 .urI the other pass, with orders to FepalF 70 y rorl's support ill ease he was attacked The o4ecF Nas to guard both c1nGns, and Dy whenever ''t enemy aDDrcached to concentrate both forces a!Iu attack him. These points are thirteen mies aPart!
 On tie evening oi the Both, PyFom adEanCe sry~I reactcd J0huson's ranche, at the mouth q fbe canon CI.rretta. Soon after picket oi tuirt men sttrtcd to explore the canon They touIti the enemy in ambush, who at once attacked the@ and took the whole picket, but one, prisoners ana and sent them at once to Un!on oiL. HIS gave Pyram tAe alarm, and he at once placed liis cannon in battery to command the mouth of the canon, and opened fire on the enemy, holding them at bay fhe whole evening.
 Meantime he sent dispatch to Scurry for help. : The messenger did not reach ScuTy's camp ul midnight. Scurly at once put his commanH n motion reachi>g Pyrom in two hours, and took command of the whole force, which then embrAced IJGO men These men embraced detachments tfom all the regiments, and two sections oi @ei : butterv l. should be mentonei that Pyrom had agreed upon au armistce to bury the deld, ana re- NDuuQGls ltl Gub U tAOeh III 1ll| i-A'i4
 On theexniration of the armistice, Scurry opened tbe nalI with the discharge of toar guns III the mouth of the canon. The enemy rephei at once ,,itb rifles their cannon being in the rear. lhis svas kept ID for half three quarters q all tiJu'' when ScurIy ordered a charge. Our boys afoFe then, ron tIeir position, and then followed them .i,r,,,.h tba canon distance of five miles. The fo4tirr here was mJst desperate. The enemy ld me aiA of their mountain howizers after the hr3' mile There were four gallant charges Htae oy our boys and three by the regulars ot the enemy
 We should have stated that the enemy lofCe ygas two ragiments of Pikes Peakers and 6j0 reg ulars, the latterbeng all old regular U > dragooHs commanded by Capt. Rowland, of the oLd U: D. mounted rifles Their conduct was itself equal to the reUntaGon. For SIX full hours the battle FaSeu in ihe canon, when the enemy was driven rom the same end they went in at. Scurry now cnargel them again and put them to utter rou'' loiio"ln7 tuem ten miles, yhen his men were too eAua"S'eO to 60 further, and the chase was disconIhueu'
 The enemy left 800 men killed and wounded III III the canon and lost 900 besides. Our loss was o9 Killed and wounded, including the brave tia. iNa- 1.Set and Capt Charley Buckhoits, (of Austln'j ol tue fourth regiment, and N Shropshire, o CoIor- ado of the 9th.
 Scurrv's conduct was most gallant. He never faeged. and was always the same Bill Scury, full 'of ofhumor, we all know so wei. He always carrlei the same laugh on the battlefield he does every where He was wounded in both cheeks by mne balls. Pyr0m had his horse blown from under h m bya shell. Rev. L. Ii. Jones, chaplain of Reily's regiment, WIS wounded. He was, at the time, holding white flag over the body of dying man. and administering to him the comforts of religion He was severely wounded by mimic ball, but we trust not morally.
 During the fight the enemy sent a hanking force and got possession Of Scurry's wagons, four miles distant, and burned them.
 We have no list of the killed and wounded fur thar than the above.
 Gen Sbley is fully alive to his situation. Witt a small force of fighting men now under his com ;nand, he has about 3000 men to fight; but he has all the important points, the passes, and an arn.,
