LATER FilOM THE ARMY.
From the Commercial Journal, Extra.)
Washington-, March 20, 11, P.M.
The New Orleans Ficaynncof the 13th
received to-night contains some most a
larming reports from Gen. Taylor's com--mand,
in a shape .more -definite than in
smy of the prececdmg rumors.
The schooner Cinderella arrived at N.
Orleans, ' brings reports that Gen. Tay
lor, had heen attacked in his position at
.Aqua Ntera, and driven hack towards Sal
lillo, to the pass of Rinconardo, but no
authority is given for these statements
-but such" as are professedly founded upon
contradictory and living reports. Even
these however, attest the gallantry of
Gen. f aylor s resistance.
It is stated that he lost 2,000 men in
the action, but that the Mexican loss
was still creator amounting to four thou
sand. The reports go so far even as to
claim the victory for the Americans.
Among the passengers, by the Cinder
ella was an officer of the army, He con
fused his inabilities to inform the editor
f the Pica v tine as to what had occurred
In relation to the news from Saltillo, he
did not know himself whether or not an
action had taken plrce.
The rumors received at Maiamoras
were innumerable and conflicting. It
was said that despatches had been receiv
ed from Gen. Taylor as late as the 25th
of February; but this was beliered to be
impossible. The communications be
tween Monterey and Camargo are com
pletely cut eff say all ths rumors and
can only be re-ope;ied by a considerable
force. Both the Americans and Mexi
cans on the Rio Grande are in a state of
preat excitement. The alarm was increa
sed by the interruption of communica
tions, and consequent uncertainty in ob
taining intelligence. The stale of sus
pense which this occasioned was most
painful. All hands were placed at work
in Camargo and Brazos strengthening the
work s and throwing up new defences.
Jest as the Cinderella was leaving B ra
zor, the Picayune's informant learned
that two Mexican spies had been taken
there, lie did not hear what disposition
' had been made of them.
The Matsnioras flng of the "3d instant,
fays, that the reports of an action having i
laken place were fully credited in that ci-'
ty. It is said, however, that there arc
jnany army officers there who are totally
incredulous in relation to them and even
the Flag is at a loss how to believe some
of "the generally credited reports. The
Flag says: "Our town has been thrown
into a state of excitement, by the reports
constantly arriving, relative to thepirilous
condition of Gen. Taylor's division of
ihearmy. The rumors are so vague and
cor.fused that we hardly know what to
leiieve. That a battle 'had been fought
no ens czn danbt but how it resulted, "or
what danger impends on the line of the
Rio Grange, are matters involved in most
perplexing uncertainty. We give what
appears to be the most authentic accounts
T'Teived from the scat of hostilities.
Gen. Taylor, while at Aqua Nueva with
5,000 men w-.-.s rtt i-Ued on the 22d ult.,
by a ferce of 1 1,000 men. Finding he
could not maintain his position, he made
Ids retre-it to Saltillo, covering his wagon
train. Here he wa3 assaulted again, and
eu obstinate action 'took- place in the
streets, involvings heavy loss to the Mex
icans, before the Americans again com-
. i -i . .i: .
nenceu ins:r retrogress uwvemenr. tse
fore reiirirg vfrcm Saltillo.'Gcn. T. des
troyed all the public stores which he was
fMelo take with him. He then continu-J-i
retreat to th 7?.?? of Rmronado, when
he was pgain attacked, and succeeded in
heating off the enemy. Here nil rumors
rr.d letters leave him. Once . in Monte
rev, r.vl lie would be safe: but his abili
ty" to r-ccomplifh sucli a movement was
rlte.rrther prcWomalicsl, as the Mexican
troops were swanr.iug in every direction.

ber of the enemy, or who commanded

"A merchant in Camargo, writing to a
friend in this place, nnder date of the 25th
says, that an express had just arrived from
Monterey with information that there was
fijjhting at Saltillo. The Mexicans had
taken Moran, capturing a large train of
Wagons and 130 men A large number
of mules were aiso taken. Captain Mc
Cullough was in command of the po3t.
Eight thousand Mexican cavalry were
on this side of the mountains, and things
in general were turned upside down.
From the .Pittsburgh American.
LATER FROM THE ARMY.
Gen. Taylor certainly surrounded by 20,
000 Mexicans commanded by Santa An
naAll communications cut ofT Battle
reported of three days continuance
Great excitement on the Rio Grande.
By an arrival at New Orleans, late in
telligence has been received' from the
mouth of the Rio Grande. Dr. Jarvis,
of the United Stales Army, came passen
ger with despatches for our Government.
He left Camargo on the 2d of March, at
which time nothing later had been heard
from the annv for several davs.
On the 23th of Februarv, Dr. Jarvis
left Camargo for Monterey, with seventy
wagons, containing supplies, &c, and es
corted by Col. Marshall's Kentucky vol
unteers, .and twenty of the 2d Dragoons.
They had only proceeded about five miles
when they received orders recalling them
and they returned.
The cause of their recall was the arri
val at Camargo of an Express from Gen.
Taylor ordering all the trains to be stop
ped as 5,000 Mexican Cavalry were
known to be ia and near the .town of
China. ' :
The express brought intelligence that
General Taylor was beyond Saltillo, sur
rounded by the Mexicans. Santa Anna
was in command, and he had demanded
Gen. Taylor to surrender. The old vet
eran replied "come and lake me." San
to Anna rejoined by saying he had 20,
000 troops'with him. and if Gen. Taylor
did not surreuder he would cut the Amer
ican army to pieces.
This was on the 22d of February, when
the Express left. Since then nothing di
rect has been heard but reports brought
by Mexicans. These reports say that
Gen. Taylor had retreated from Aqua
Nueva to Saltillo with the loss of six can
nons. It wa3 feared that a detachment of the
3d regiment of Ohio Volunteers, under
Colonels Morgan and Irving, had been cut
off by 3000 Mexican troops.
Norgan was at Serai vo, with seven
companies on the 23 J of February, the
Mexicans occupying Marin. On that day
Irving left to join Morgan who evacuated
Serai vo on the next day destroying all
the stores and supplies lie could not take
with him, and must on the route have en
countered the enemy.
It is reported also that a train of 160
wagons, which left Camargo on the 16th
of February fir Monterey, loaded with
provisions and clothing. Was captured
near Rames, with its escort. This report
wasbraught by Mexican Muleteers.
These muleteers also report that a great
battle has been fought between Gen. Tay
lor at Santa Anna, which continued three
days, with great loss on both sides.
Gen. Taylor had sent a messenger to
Tampico for reinforcements. It was
feared that all the American troops had
sailed. If so, it was considered as very
unfortunate, as it was the only point from
whica assistance could come for his re
lief. Mexicans report that Gen. Taylor re
pulsed Santa Auna, and the latter lost
2000 men.
From all accounts it is pretty certain
that a battle has been fought, and that thus
far he contest has been favorable to the
American arms.
There is not much doubt that General
Taylor has an enemy both in his front
and in his rear, each superior to his
whole force. His situation is therefore
eminently critical.
The Mexican inhabitants are abandon
ing the Rio Grande, fearing the approach
of their own army, more than the pres
ence of the American troops.
Camargo is strongly fortified, and was
considered safe. The report of McCul
iough's capture has proved unfounded.
LATER FROM THE ARMY NEWS
FROM GEN. TAYLOR.
Call for 50,000 Troops Procla
mation of tiik Gov. of Louisiana.
Washington, March 228 P. M.
The SouiVm mail is in, and brings
still later news from the army. The
dates from Brazos Santiago are to" the 12th
inst.
Tii reports previously broushl of
GcnTaylar having retreated to Monte
rey, p.re renewed by this arrival, and also
the statement that he hnd lost six pieces
cf cannon and a large number of men,
but nothing certain has been ascertained.
It is only a repetition of rumors.
The communication between the Bra
zos and General Tavlor was entirely cut
off.
Col. Curtis from Camargo, has sent an
extraordinary and urgent Despatch to the
States for reinforcements amounting to
50,000 men. He calls on Louisiana for
ten regiments.
Gov. Johnson in response has issued
his Proclamation for raising the 10,000
men required from that State.
Il was currently reported, at the Bra
zos that eighteen hundred Mexican troops
were, advancing on that place. .
Down to the 4th inst, there has been no
attack on Camargo.
The various reports which have arri
ved so liberally cf h!c d?out the battle be
tween Santa Anna and Gen. Taylor, are
reiterated by his arrival. Col. Cartis
.ii-s he has no communication with, or
messages from Gen Taylor, siuco the22d
of February, the latest news brought by
Dr Jams. .
It was rumored this evening about
Washington, that - despatches have" been
received at the War department from the
Army, containing an account of the battle.
Rumor says that Gen Taylor was victori
ous. All this is very doubtful. ,
, : The New Orleans papers are full of
rumors relating to the movements of the
army and the Mexicans, but they are on
ly rumors and not worth Telegraphing.
We shall have something reliable very
soon. " .
LATER FROM TAMPICO.
The brig Ann Still has arrived in the
river from Tampico, having sailed on the
3d inst. To Major Burns, who came
passenger in hex, we are indebted fc? our
correspondence, which we subjoin.
Editorial Correspondence of the Pica-:
yune.3
Tampico, Februarv 23, 1817
8 o'clock, P. M.
This morning the U. S. steamer Edith,
from Brazos Santiago, with Gen.' Worth
and staff and two companies of troops
on board, touched off the bar at the mouth
of our river, coining to anchor two miles
outside, and sent despatches up to Gen.
Patterson.- The Edith being liound for
Lobos Island, sailed on her course at half
past 2 P. M.
The IJ. S. steamer Alabama is to sail
to-morrow with Gen. Patterson, staff and
troops. The steamer Virginia, with Gen.
Pillow, stall and troops. It is probable
that by the last of this week all the forces
to leave will have saileJ.
Whether or not there be a battle any
where else, however, it seems to be pret
ty certain that we shall have one at Vera
Cruz, End before we get to Vera Cruz.
It is known here that the enemy are pre
paring to give us a warm reception on
landing. In the rear of Anton Lizardo
they have built strong fortifications, too
far for the guns of our squadron to bear
upon them, but in reach of the point ot
landing.
On these fortifications very heavy guns
are mounted, and other arrangements arc
made and being made, to make a despe
rate stand against the landing of our
troops It is also to be expected that the
city of Vera Cruz is in a condition to
make bloody resistance.
ADJOURNMENT OF THE LEGIS
LASU RE WHIG ECONOM Y-S A
VI NG OF $20,000 TO THE STATE
LOCOFOCO EXTRA VA G ANCE.
The session of the Legislature which
is now about drawing to a close, has been
a short, economical, working session.
The Whigs, have nobly discharged their
duty to the Slate and the people, and will
now return to tncir constituents, to oe
greeted with the welcome plaudit of ' well
done good and faithful servants." But
seventy -one days have elapsed since the
Legislature convened, and more impor
tant business has been transacted, than
would have been accomplished by a Lo
cofoco Legislature in six months. Not
withstanding the disgraceful attempts of
the minority to interrupt and impede the
progress of business, the Whigs, actuated
by the purest motives, and looking only
to the interests of the Commonwealth,
faithfully and fearlessly performed their
whole duty. The present session has
bpen most emphatically a WORKING
SESSION and the result is a saving to
the Stale of not less than TWENTY
THOUSAND DOLLARS! Such is
Whig economy, and such the benefit re
sulting to the State and the petiole from
he election of a WHIG LEGISLA
TURE. The Locofocos preach economy, but
the Whigs practice it. As Whigs and
Peunsylvanians we feel proud of our
Whig Legislature, and are confident that
it will meet the hearty and cordial appro
bation of the tax-burthened people of the
State, who have for years been suffering
from the corruption, extravagance, and
mal-adminstration of Federal Locofoco
ism. Our good old Commonwealth has
been shaken to its very centre by the ge
nius of this thing called Locofocoism
corrupt'on, like a horse full of high feed
ing, madly hath broken loose, and bears
down all before it the State debt has
been fearfully increased, and our honest,
toil-worn Farmers and Mechanics op
pressed with Locofoco taxation, until for
bearance has almost ceased to be a virtue.
Locofocoism has proved a curse to the
Commonwealth the people see it all
around them, and are reminded of it in
every day's experience.
But thanks, the reign of Locofocoism
is near its end. We already see the
dawning of a brighter day. Pennsylva
nia poor lax-ridden, humbugged, dis
graced Pennsylvania is destined to be a
WHIG STATE! The signs of the
times uuerrimriv indicate the election of a
WHIG GOVERNOR and WHIG LE
GISLATURE by a majority unpreceden
ted in the political histbry of the State.
Then will our ancient Commonwealth
speedily be restored to the purity and
prosperity which characterized her in her
most palmy days. '-Whig principles pro
perly carried out by a Whig administra
tion will raise Pennsylvania from her pre
sent embarrassed and ruinous condition,
and elevate her to the lofty and honorable
position she was destined to occupy a
mong the Commonwealths of the Nation.

CTTho Uniontown Democrat of the (

Gen. Butler who passed through thi3
place yesterday morning says he has no
fear for Gen. Taylor, that the Rinconada
pass is some 60 miles in length and not
more than half a mile wide at any place,
so that'it would be" impossible for Santa
Auna s large body to out-flank htm. 1 he
presumption is that if it has come to the
worst with him, he has fallen back to
Monterey where his defence would be
ample and his provisions sufficient to last
60 days. The murder of Gov, Bent and
ottier American citizens at bantare is 1
fully confirmed.
It appears from the annual statement
of Lowell manufactures that there are 13
manufacturing corporations in the city,
embracing a capitalstock of $1 1,130,000,
