TOE FoLLownio ANNCDOTE connected with
the decisive battle of the 9th is too good to be
o mitted :
.. The battle commenced by heavy cannons-
,ding on both sides. Gen. Taylor, in passing
his Tines, accosted Capt. May. of the . 2d dra•
goo ns, and told him—" Your regiment has
never done anything yet—you must take that
b att ery." He said nothing. but turned to the
co mmand and said we must take that bat
tery--fullow !" He made a charge with three ,
companies—at least with the remainder or three
companies--supportedpby the sth and Bth
regiments of infantry. They cleared the breast
work, rode over the battery, wheeled and
came through the enemy's line, whilst the fire
of the infantry was so deadly in its effects as
t o carry all before it. Captain May made a cut
at un officer as he charged through; on his
return he found him standing between the
wheels of a cannon, fighting like a hero. He
was asked if he was an officer t Capt. Maw
answered him in the affirmative. when he
presented his sword, remarking—" You re
ceive Gen. Vega a prisoner of war." Captain
M a y g a ve him in charge to one of his sergeants
who had lost his horse in the charge, ordering
him to conduct him to General Taylor out of
the line."
Capt May's attack is spoken of asbeing one
of those splended efforts which would have
adorned the brightest feather of the plume of
Murat, in the palmiest a , days of his glory. It
cost him 19 horses, with a few of the gallant
riders. The victory, says the extra from which
we copy. entirely belongs to the, U. S. army,
no volunteers having arrived in time to share
in the honors of the day. It will convince our
country. that West Point affords the material
of exhibitine the courage and bravery of the
American soldiers.
I tra c t we will hear no more of dismounting
our gallant dragoons ; the affair of the 9th shows
them to be the arteries of our defence.
TExAs.—ln the present exciting times, the
following chronological history of our young
Mier may not prove uninteresting to our read-
I n 1803 this territory, embracing also the
state o f Louisiana, was acquired from France.
In I 819 ceded by the United States to Spain.
In 1821 Mexico revolted from the Spanish
ileinnuon, and declared her independence of
the mother country.
In 1822 and 1825 Spain protests against the
recognition of the Mexican indepentlence,is ac
tually carr: - .ing on war with Mexico, and ix in
p.tssessien of the Castle of San Juan d'Ulloa.
In 1923 the United States recognizes the
independence of Mexico.
- On the 4th October, 1824, the constitution
of the Nlextran United States was established,
declared to be "federal " and .• the parts if
the federation to be States." Texas with
Coahuila was a State; and her constitotion.

faithful copies of the originals—Btxcxwooo's MAGA:
zixa being an exact fac-simile of the Edinburg edi

The wide-spread fame of.thesii. splendid PerjOdicala
renders it needless to say much in their praise: As
literary organs, they stand far in advance oranyWorks
of a similar stamp now published, while the political
complexion of each is marked by a dignity, candor and
forbearance not often found in works of a party char
acter.
They embrace the views of the three great parties in
England—Whig, Tory, and Radical.—" Blackwood"
and the "London Quarterly" are Tory; the" Edin

cal. The "Foreign Quarterly" is purely literary, be
ing devoted principally to criticisms on foreign Conti

The prices of the Re-paters are lees than one-third
of those of the foreign copies, and while they are equal

American over the English reader.

J.KINGSBERY JR.
To the Commissioners mud Treasurer or the
eounty of Bradford
Gerretzwirm :—Although the subject was pressed up
on the attention of the Legislature yet it omitted to pro
vide any additional revenue for the current year. ,dye
must therefore rely on the previous enactments.
The loss to the commonwealth occasioned by the in
jury done to the public works, approximate $300,000,
and this falls exclusively on that part of the semi-annual
interest due in August nett. We must endeavor to
make up this unexpected deficiency by the most prompt
and vigorous use of the means that are left us. The
increased tonnage during the entire yerr, it is believed,
will be nearly commensurate with the loss I have sta
ted, and thus the nett tolls, will be about the same as
last year. By the promptness and activity of the Ca
nal Commissioners and their officers, the entire line of
our public works, including all the branches, are now
in fall and successful operation.
I stated in my circular of the 29th of May, 1993,
that 0 we paid the interest due in February last, and
we can do so in August and February next, if active
and prompt measures are adopted in theseveral counties
of the Commonwealth." Your' carts have fulfilled
these expectations, and our Commonwealth stands re
deemed, from the dishonor, which for a time rested up
on her. Let us not falter now. Let us determine- to
use all the means in our poorer; to maintain our ele
vated position, and avert the impending calamities which
would fall upon our Commonwealth and our citizens,
should our plighted faith be again broken.
There is reason for great anxiety, but not despon
dency, as the following brief statement will exhibit.—
Our resources may be stated thus:
Assessments for 1846, estimated nett amt $1,185,000
Do of previous year, do. 275,000
Nett tolls from public works, 500,000
The interest falling due in August and February next,
may be stated to be 0,860,000. The ordinary and
other revenues not stated, it is believed, sill be sufficient
to meet the ordinary expenses of government. It will
he thus seen that the prompt and punctual payment of
the existing revenues, will place the' Tieasury in a
condition to meet the accruing interest ou we public
debt.
As a means of producing this result, I call your at
tention to the proposition made in my circular of the
24th of May last. 1 renew the offer. An abatement
of five per cent. will be allowed for the payment pre
vious to the lit of August, of the taxes of this year. If
the sum paid approaches near the quota of your county,
this abatement will be made. You have it thus in
your power to benefit your county and save the Com
monwealth from dishonor. No highet motives of ac
tion can be presented than these, that of interest and
patriotism.
In the event of the inability of your county to avail
itself of the abatement, it is expected that you will press
the collection of your duplicates as rapidly as possible,
and pay the amount without delay. into the Treasury.
Thedublicates having gone forth vouch earlier this year
than the last, will greatly facilitate your collections.—
There are arrearsges of former years due from several
counties ; these ought to be collected and paid imme
diately. For theartearages of 1845, interest is charged,
and will accumulate until paid. If your county is in
this position, you should not suffer the loss which this
delay occasions.
We will surmountour present difficulties if our de
termined action he commensurate with the evil which
is impending, and the good we may accomplish. If
we are successful in paying the August interest, I fum
y believe that the future payments can be made with
out a straggle. One the other hand, if we fail, the
dead weight of 000,000 of unpaid interest, not to
speak of State dtshonor, will lay upon us like an incu
bus, and its paralysing influence will be felt for years.
I know you duly estimate the importance
confidence ate and prompt action, and rely with enure confidence
that your best efforts will be put forth at this important
I will be pleased to hear from you in relation to Ilia
subject. Very respectfully,
Your ob's servant.
