DESPATCH FROM GEN. SCOTT.
The following; interesting despatch
from General Scott, has been received at
the War Department, and officially pub
lished: Headquarters of the Army, "1

Vkra Crcz, April 10, 1817. J
Sis: The plan of attack, sketched in
General Orders No. Ill, published in
Saturday's National Intelligencer, here
with, was finely executed by this gallant
rrmy before two o'clock P. M. yester
day. We are quite embarrassed with
vie rc."uiw vi iL-i,u, ji lawuns
' xrzr, heavy ordnance, field batteries,
email arms, and accoutrements. About
3,000 men laid down their arms, with
the usual proportion cf field and compa
ny officer?, besides five generals, several
of them of great distinction. Pinson,
Jarrero, La Vega, Noriega, and Obando.
A sixth general, Vasquez, wa? killed in
defending the hatl'ery (tower) in the rear
of the whole Mexican army, the capture
of which gave us those glorious results.
Our loss, though comparatively email
in numbers, lias been serious. " Urigadier
Ger.er.il Shields, a commander of activity,
zonl ?.ml talent, is, I fear, if not dead, mor
tal! r wounded. He is some five miles
from inc at this moment. The field of
operations covered many miles, broken
by mountains and deep chasms, and I

mortally wounded, in entering, sword in
hand, the entrenchments around he cap
tured lower. Second Lieut. Derby, topo
graphical engineers, I also saw, at the
same place, severely wounded, and Cap

lost his rioht hand. Major Summer, 2d
United States dragoons, wa3 slight!)'
wounded the day before, and Captain
Johnston, topographical engineers, (now
lieutenr.Rt colonel of infantry,) was very
severely wounded some days earlier
while reconnoitring. I must not omit to
add that Captain Mason and 2d Lieuten
ant Davis, both of the rifles, were anion
the very severely wounded in etnrming
the same tower. I estimate cur total loss,
in killed and wounded, may be about 230
and thr.t of die enemy C50. In the pur-

It is a most pleasing duty to say that
the highest praise is due to Harney,
Childs, Plymton, Lorin, Alexander, their
gallant officers and men, for this brilliant
service, independent of the great results
which soon followed.
Worth's division of regulars coming up
at this time, he detached Brevet Lieuten
ant Colonel C. F. Smith, with his light
battalion, to support the assault, but not
in time. The General, reaching the tow
er a few minutes before me, and observ
ing a white flag displayed from the near
est portion of the enemy towards the bat
teries below, sent out Colonels Harney
and Childs to hold a parley. The sur
render followed in an hour or tw.
Major General Patterson left asick bed j
to share in the dangers and fatigues oft
,i..v .jn,l nftpr tbe surrender, went
forward to command the advanced forces '
towards Xalapa.
Brigadier General Pillow and his brigade
twice assaulted widi great daring the ene
my's line of batteries on our left, and.
though without success, they contributed .
ranch to distract and dismay their imme
diate opponents.
President Santa Anna, with Generals
Canalizoand Almonte, and some six or
eight thousand men, escaped towards
Xalapa just before Cerro Gordo was car
ried, and before Twiggs's division reach
ed the national road above.
I have determined to parob the prison
ers officers and men as I have not
the means of feeding them here beyond
to-day, and cannot afford to detach a hea
vy body of horse and foot, with wagons,
to accompany them to Vera Cruz. Our
baggage train, though increasing is not
yet half large enough to give an assured
progress to this army. Besides, a great
er number of prisoners would, probably,
escape from the escort in the long and
deep sandy road, without subsistence
ten to one that we shall find again, out
of the same body of men, in the ranks
nniiiieoil in us. Xnt nr nf the Vera
Cruz prisoners is believed to have been !
in the lines of Cerro Gordo. Some fix
of the officers, highest in rank, refuse to
give their paroles, except to go to Vera
Cruz, and thence, perhaps, to the United
State.
The small arms and their accoutre-
ments being vf no value to our army here
or at home, I have ordered them to be
destroyed; for we have not the means of
of transporting them. I am also some
what embarrassed with the pieces of
artillery all bronze which we have
captured. It would take a brigade, and
half the nudes of this army, to transport
them fifty miles. A field batter)' I shall
tike for service with the army; but the
heavy metal must be collected, and left
here for the present. We have our own
su-ge-tram atid

Being much cccnpiid with the prison
ers, and nil the details of a forward move-
ment, besides looking to the supplies
whieh are to fid'ow from Vera Cruz, I
have time to add no more intending to
be at X-lana early to morrow. We shall
not, probably, rgain meet with serious
opposition this side of Pcrote certainly
not, unless delayed by the want cf the
means of trasportation.
I have the honor to remain, sir, with
high respect, vour most obedient servant.
" W1NITELI) SCOTT.
P. S. I invite attention to the accompa
nying letter to President Santa Anna, ta
ken in his carriage yesterday; also to his
proclamation, issued on hearing that we
had captured Vera Cruz, &c, in which
he says: "If the enemy advance ene step
more, the national independence will be
buried in abyss of die past." We have
taken step. " W. S.
I make a second postscript, to say that
there is some hope, I am happy to learn,
that General Shields may survive his
wounds.
One of the principal motives for pnr
olir.g the prisoners of war is to diminish
the resistance ofother garrison? in our
march. S. W.

PREPARATIONS FOR DEFENCE
IN MEXICO.
The Editors of La P atria, a . Spanish
paper published at New Orleans, have
gathered tha following intelligence from
papers of the city of Mexico to the 10th
of April: ;
In tho Mo?;itoh of the latest date we
find, among the resolutions presented to
Congress by three members, (Canas, Gar
cia, and Zubieta,) and supported by thir
teen more members, one in which it is
proposed to remove that body to the city
of Querctaro; and that a majority - of one.
member will be sufficient for Congress to
sit. ; -
Scnor Ortega proposed that the Exec
utive should be invested with the neces
sary powers to adopt whatever measures
it should deem proper for the continu
ance of the war with the invaders of the
North; and that Congress should be re
moved to the city of TlaTpan.
Congress had passed a decree, which is
published on die 10th, to the following
effect:
1st. In onler to carry on the war
which our nation wajres against the Uni-
ted Slates of The North, all the Mexi
cans capable of bearing arms are hereby
summoned to enrol themselves immedi
ately.
2d. The Government will publish the
necessary rules and instructions in order
to make cfiectivc die organization of the
National Guards, according to what is es
tablished in part XIX, article 50th of the
constitution.
3d. The Executive may dictate any
measures which may be considered ne
cessary in order to use all the arms and
ammunition which may be in possession
of private individuals, and which may no'
be employed by the Police or National
Guards; also for the use of wagons, bag-
gage, ammunition, and provisions, and a
ny other articles or utensils which may
be necessary for the fulfilment of this ob
ject, providing always the means of in
demnification. 4th. The Government will establish
stores of supplies for the subsistence of
the national forces, wherever it will deem
it convenient or necessary.
Articles 5, 6, and 7 provide the man
ner in which persons assisting with mon-
; ey or other means for this purpose should
be lurnisneu with documents aud ccrtin
cates, and stipulate the different pay
ments allowed to persons enlisting either
by the year or during-the war.
The meeting of the principal citizens
took place on the 8th of April, when they
unanimously agreed to establish the "gu
errilla" system for resisting the North A
mericans. These resolutions were mnde
known to the Government and to Con
gress, and they had already commenced
the formation of the respective bodies, in
order to start immediately for the moun
tains, passes, and clifis. Among the per
sons signing ihc propositions, wc see the
names of many prominent lawyers, mili
tary and other public men. 1 tie papers
have before announced this as 'the means
of saving the nation, and Sustaining Mex
ican independence.
All the papers arc filled with appeals
to the citizens, and one of diem asks,
'Can it be possible that among eight
millions of Mexicans we cannot find a
sufficient number of patriotic and deter-
- mined men who will resist the enemy that
is invading our soil without die least re
gard to our rights!"
The following is from
one of the ofii-
ccrs of Capt. Naylor's Company.

GREAT DISTRESS IN THE IS
LAND OF MADEIRA.
Letters from Funchal to March 28 th
state that there was scarcely a bushel of
corn or a barrel of flour to be bought in
the Island, and the distress in the rural
districts was extreme. The merchants
of Funchal had advanced to the. munici
pal authorities $29,500, and the authori
ties themselves had contributed 64,000,
all of which was sent to Gabralter, Lis
bon, and London, wherewith to purchase
provisions for the starving population; but
the returns had not been received.
The Madeira Defensor newspaper of
Friday, the 12th March, says:
p'Trre dreadful slate which our island at
this moment presents has not been equalled
for many years. All kinds of breadstufTs
for sale are entirely finished, and the poor
er classes, who had not the means of pro
viding in time, have before them all the
horrors of starvation. The few barrels '
of flour that still could be got are held at
S25. If within the next two or three
days some vessels do not arrive with cup
plies, we shall have to witness some of
the most distressing scenes that ever vis
ited a community. Wc realiy are afraid
to say more!"
From the Nat. Intelligencer.
THE WAR.
Nothing can be more uncertain than,
from any information in possession of the
public, is the probable duration of the ex
isting War. Rumors on the subjuct are
of various and contradictory import.
When Congress adjourned, it wa3 under
stood to be the opinion that we should
have peace in sixty days. Sixty days
have passed, and in that interval of time
by one brilliant achievement the fortress
at Vera Cruz has been captured, and by
another the Mexican army of the North
has been almost annihilated. Notwith
standing which, the public demonstrations
of the Mexican authorities breathe noth
ing but vengeance and carnage. All that
we can do lo enlighten the minds of our
readers on tho question which must be at
this moment more interesting to them
than any other whatever, is lo communi
cate to them the impressions of those
correspondents of the Democratic press
who have, by virtue of their politics,
more free access to official sources of in
formation here than we make any preten
sion to. With this view we present to
them the following, as conveying the la
tesf intelligence that we have upon the
subject:
Correspondence of the Journal of Com
merce. Washington, May 4.
To conquer Mexico, we must take it
in detail; conquer each separate State,
nd make a separate treaty with each,
and keep an aimy in it for the mainte
nance of peace. All this will constitute
a twenty years' job. Not one officer of
the aimy who has been lately in Mexico,
not a single individual who is acquainted
with the present condition of things in
Mexico predicts or expects a peace. A
general officer of the army, who has ren
dered aetive services during the war, at
the head of the Quartermaster's Depart
ment, gives it n3 his opinion, it is said,
that the war will not end for five years.
Whatever Santa Anna could at one time
have done towards the conclusion of a
peace, he is now powerless for that pur
pose. Were he to conclude a peace to
day, he would lose his power to-morrow.
Correspondence of the New York Globe.
Washington, May 4.
We had a rumor in town last evening,
resting indeed upon no authority to be re
lied upon, that Santa Anna, supported by
certain prominent members of the Mexi
can Congress, had submitted propositions
for opening negotiations; accommodating
the difficulties existing between the two
countries. We are told in the face of
this rumor that Gen. Jesup, just returned
from the seat of war, expresses the opin
ion that the war has but just begun, and
the end, or die time of the end, cannot lie
conjectured! Gen. Jesup is an able man,
of rlcar judgment, and a brave officer,
zealous and industrious in the discharge
of duty, and has seen much dangerous
service. The opportunities he has had
for forming an opinion, during his recent
tour of inspection over Mexico, woulJ
sive to any such opinion much weight
and force.
From two Correspondents of the New
York Herald.
Washinctln. May .
A gentleman, late from the seat of war,
declares it to be hi3 opinion that Santa
Anna will not dare to make peace. Al
though the gentleman is a very reliable
authority, yet it is confidently believed
here that Santa Anna, after fighting, will
seize die first favorable opportunity for
making pacific overtures. Indeed, noth
ing can be ventured ou this extremely
doubtful question, with any degree of as
surance. It is an absolute uncertainty
when tho war will terminate; and al
though the best possible plans have been
put in execution for bringing it to a close,
yet it is impossible to predict its termina
tion with any certainty. The same rules
cannot be applied to Mexico as to any
other nation. She i mi generis, and it
is vain to vaticinate as to her course.
Galvienszs.
Washington, May 1.
In the absence of any reliable inlorma
tion that the politicians of Mexico arc ap
prized of the state of affairs in the ensu
ing Congress, wc stand fast lo the hopj
that peace, may be our? on or before the
entry of the American army into tiie hails
of the Moiitezumas.
The President is sanguine of an im
mediate peace, and his opinion is doubt
less based upon the most authentic infor
mation. But, NOUS VtRRONi.
THE NEXT CONGRESS.
Prior to the Virginia election the Whigs
had elected 81 members of die coming
Congress, the Iocofocos The result
of that election increases the Whig
strength to 87, and the locofoco force to
63. lu the States yet to elect, according
to a reasonable calculation in the N. Y.
Tribune, the Whigs will probably elect
32 members, andthelocos 39. If this
calculation is realized therefore the next
House of Representatives will consist of
1 18 Whigs and 115 Locofocos. The Sen
ate will of course still be locofoco. Con
sidering that Mr. Polk had a majority of
about seventy m the last House, we
should think this result indicates pretty
strongly what the people think of his
miserable administration. West Chester
Record.
Great sickness prevails among the im
migrants "at New York from European
