The advance 'army under Gen Scott, was - ex. Pected to enter Puebla, on-the l7th..instant; and no resistance whatever was expected. • After leaving a suffiCient force, in each of the I captured cities, to preserve order and .maintin our position, Gen. Scott'would' have abOut 6000 troops, with whom to advance upon the City of Mexico. ' ''""ko certain' infroirnation had been obtained, for sornee : ays . .previous, of the position!of Santa Anna. Theluerilla bands, which are n'ovv numerously organized, hadiroqiven our troopS as much Iron• bte as it was feared the would; and it is thought they are engaged in the Mort safe business of rob- bing and murdering their Own - countrymen. The very gratifying intelligenceis-communicat ed by this arrival, that the brave Gent4,,Shields was very much improving-; and his reco;ely4s ... now looked upon as almost certain: This'will be' received with great joy throughout our country. The New Orleans Picayune has advices from the I City of Mexico to the ?Sth of April; and publishes a letter written by Santa Anna, dated at Orizaba, on the 2fth of that month. In this', letter he says that he is collecting and organizing a large force, with which to attack Gen. Scott in the rear! So the hero of Vera Cruz may expect to have a hot time of he should be attacked - al all, which ue think doubtful Two cases of the Vomito are said to have been reported at Vera Cruz. One of the victims is said to be .e Mr. Smith, a suttler in one of the Pennsyl vania regiments. G According to papers from .MexicO, received by the Picayune; Santa Anna lead granted 'a large number of peits to guerillabands: It was reported that a Yankee had been arrested . at the city of le:leo, for having . presented him self to the Pr ident in the capacity Of .an ambas. sadur to negot te for peace. He did not pretend to be acting Wider any authority - whatever; but had unclertakert the business "on his 'own hook!"

Dear Protkr:—l will give yool a short sketch, of my journey thus far into the interior of Mexico. The first, day after we left Vera Cri.z we marched, • 1 some &eaten miles over sandy mou ntains, under a scorching sun; the men carrying their knapsacks., Some few felt by the way 4 With fatigue. After travelling: four days, We caught up with General Twigge Division, who had come to a halt, and were one day in advance of 'us at a palace called; Plan del Rio, four miles distant from where Santa 1 Anna bail fortifiedi,iraself on an eminence, with a ;,breastwork thrown up, which seemed as strong as the Castle of San Juan de taloa, with a force of, frt ,eA1t0,.,, n thDusand..trons, which appeared to be utmost impossible Il to take. But there is no such [ thing as an impossibility with General Scott, nor € is:thero inch a word used by any of his officers orl I - • Men in. military exploits. We stoppedhere some{ f three days, until all of General Worth's Division 1 . came up. When General Scott reached us, he gate orders to stem the heights, and the Pass of , Death, as the !Mexicans call it, or Cerro Gordo,,in Spanish. That night and the next morning every thing was in meparation, ani by daylight we were , on our march fur Cerro Gordo, and in a short time I were near the spot ready thr any thing that was to! be done. Our division is composed of the Second Pennsylvania and Second . Tennessee Reginients. I The First Penniylvania and First Tennessee Regi. ments were ordered to tnake a charge, to be sup.' ported by the Second Pennsylvania ,and Second Tennessee. Our Regiment Was on the extreme left, and hail to advance byta narrow pass, and part of the way, was sufficient only I for two men to go abreast. "We passed in front of four batter ries, mountir. ' s seven guns each. wr were within three hundred yards of then' without being dis covered, on account of a thick chapilaral interve ning between us. When distant about a quarter of a mile from the breast work, thelTennesse Re. giment, from some cause, advanced) in confusion under a destructive fire, and was obliged to give way and form in our rear. At this Ilion° the grape and cannister was cutting down the chapparal all around us. Just at this moment General Pillow was wounded. Our Regiment stood firm, and con. armed to advance, led on by the gallant Colonel Roberts, until they became the advance under a heavy fire. I heard Colonel Roberts address his men as follows, which had a good effect: "Men! it is to be told this day whether the,-honor of Pennsylvania is a be maintained, or be forever disgraced. Tennessee . has faltered. I.et us show by oui - ennduct this day, that Pennsylvania's honor shall not be tarnished by us." When just about to advance upon the battery, a messenger announ.! eed that the Mexicans had surrendered at discre tion. I did not know ,how our Company would stand the fire; but they ktood it nobly, I assure fon. Captain Porter, Lieutenants Rankin and Skelly, and all the men; acted bravely. It is truly astonishing how we escaped with so small a loss; having only two killed and fourteen wounded in the Regiment. We took about four thousand prisoners, with a great deal of arms, ammunition, &e., and about thirty thousand dollars in specie, with Santa Anna's evrk•leg, a very handsome one, by the way. I cannot help a kword or two about Colonel Roberts. In our dding little 'engagement he acted with great coolness and bravery in a very trying moment. His men love and respect him, and those at first who did not know him, are very agreeably disappointed, and 'would go any length do sustain bins. In fact; he is a noble officer, and well worthy the high post he so honorably fills. The climate hire is much more healthy than in Yera Cruz. It is very cold at night, and pleasant in daytime. I )net with a great loss somewhere about the battleground, It was my knapsack, containing my mniforin, &c., which I cannot re place here. There is a different kind of people here from the citizens of Vera Cruz. .They are industrious and intelligent., I find a very fine cot *agn factOry here: The Cathedrals and Churches are mnificent. ..:.

At the end of this pass, next • the Rio Del Pieria, where we encariaped,, they had! three batteries, - and an entrenchment, cut in asolid . rock one mile and a half in length: You canjudge . by this that no position could have been more ad- , • vantageous for the enemy—as it was strongly de. , fended, both by•nature and by. art. •It was in this! position that &eta Anna, with his forces, amounti ing tO twenty thousand men, stayed the division; tinder command of Gen. Twiggs, who left Vera Cruz on the Bth, one day prim to us, on his march. towards Jalapa. When stayed he fell back four or five miles, on : the, banks- of a small stream called Plan Del Rio, in order to obtain water, where - he remained until the arrival of our division and thd division under Gen. Worth. After the arrival of all the forces, and Gen. Scott, it was determined to attack the enemy on the Bth, which was carried into execution, by Twiggs' division. The object of this was to gain a hill top, which commanded some of the hiding places of the enemy. Thislva.4 gained at the bayonet's point,' After the engage:. merit, which continued two hours, the bill top was literally covered with. dead Mexicans, many 01 , whom had been pinned to the earth With the'cold steel. On Sunday morning all the forces were or, dered into the engagement ; which' was fierce ands: bloody. I grow sick, when I think of it : I jump ed over five men in one pile, either killed or wounded—all of our regiment. Every step, al most, a man fell before or behind. . I escaped. un 'rouched—though the bullets Cut the bushes before milace. This fightccintinued about two n_r- three hours, ;Oren , the white flags went up, and the re treat commenced. They were closely pursued, by part of the army;for twelve miles, who produced terrible carnage on Ike, route. We traveled over the ground two days aftetwards. and the sight was beyond all description. Deaules, horses, men ;I cannon, muskets, wagons, were 61 1 , 4pingled. The smell was very unpleasant 'There w• me faces, turned towards a .corching sun, and like a " paddy." It was .a most horrid sight.. We are now encamped near Jalapa, but expect, to follow Worth, (who has taken possession of l Perote.) in :a shrt time. It is now commercing to rain, andiwe are without tents, and-1 must cease.

C, • Letter from the Second Regiment. lig== egiment A recent telegraphic despatch announced that this gallant officer was delivering orders, in his capacity of adjutant, when shot, and denies that he Was, killed while endeavoring to rally the Indiana! Regiment. 'We believe that neither statement is true. We: haVe it second hand from an Officer who rode' beside him when he fell, that he was shot through' the head when in the act of making a charge at j full gallop, and that he fell dead from his horse.' The noble animal, carried forward by his own -speed,-as soon as he missed his rider, turned back, passCd his nose over the body, and gently turn. eit the head so .astO reveal - the features of his mas;ter, which,, when exposed fo Lincoln's servant, who stood by, caused the latter to shed tears and tittechnid convulsive lamentations. All who saw it ‘vere*eply atibeted, for Lincoln was the idol of t~e army. Some days Met the battle, Capt. Lincoln's horse I was offerel tor sale auction. When the first), bid was announced, the canteen woman, (honored; with the soubriquet of the Great Western, as well j from her valor and patriotism as from her extra-. ordinary size and strength,) with * whom Lincoln was an especial favorite,stepped fcirward qnd said that the man who offered seventy five dollars for: a horse like that, could not want it—that she would give two hundred and fifty - dollars for the animal, and at that price it was knocked down to her. When asked what occasion She had for the horse, she declared her intention to keep it till an opportunity offered of forwanlineit to Lincoln's mother, for whom she desi , med it as a prO.ent.— (fauiwid,of. tvlienurce. The loft Prince de Patiglia*.—The Prince De Polignac, the celebrated Minietei of Charles Xth. whose deathshas been latelyiannounced, belonged to 'One of the oldest and nnost.,delebrated families] in France, among whose members were the famous., Cardinal De Polignae, a Minister of Louis XlVtls, 'and Madame De Polignac, the confidante of Marie Antoinette. The deceased Prince, was born in! 1760, and at an early age emigrated with his bro thers,' to escape the consequences of the French Revolution. In 1804 they re-entered France, committed themselves in svconspiracy egailist Na poleon, snit were in consequence punished by . a, long imprisonment which rerininated,on the mato ration of the Bourbons. Soured no doubt by mis. - fortune, the Prince became an ultra royalist and I the leader of that party , diming the reign of Louis -- In 1823, he was sent .Minisrei to Lon don, and remained there 'six years. In 1829 he became of Minister, and was the principal ad.; miler of Charles Xtli, in relation to those ordinan ces which led to the Revolution of the three days. The Chamber of Peers condemned him to death for treason; but 'his life was spared, and he was adjudged to perpetual imprisonment in the Castle i of Ham. He was then permitted to go into exile, and finally allowed to return to France, with the restriction of not being permitted to enter - Paris.i fie established Munch at Sr. Gertnains, and there passed the remainder of his dais in ill health_ And affliction.. He "was twice married, first to Miss Barbara Campbell, and afterwards to Maria Char lotte, daughter of Lord Rancifflb, and widow of the Marquis de Choiseul. He left six children and large possessions. Such statesmen as Pitt, Pox rend Sheridan, while they could not exhibit en unsullied escutcheon in social life, seemed to have a knowledge of men and of events, a sagacity, and general sympathy wills the people at large, whith - covered up all their perSonal foibleS; while Polignac, chivalrous and stainless in private life proved a tyrant, whose stringent measures eVerthrew both his King and himself—Journal of Commerce.. Predictionrßealizcd.—The - hold prediction of Gen. Green, when a prisonerin. the Castle of Perote, has been singularly verified. While he and his brethren ill, arms were prisoners in that dreadful fortress, a newflam stuff was raised. The General told the commander of the Castle that he was glad to see it firm and lofty ; for it would bear the more bravely the stars 'and stripes, before five years, would wave from it in undisputed sovereign ty. In three, this bold promise to the Mexican government has actualy been realized. Noble rlct.—col Yell, of Arkansas, and the President, were old friends. The last letter which the brave soldier is supposed to have written was to President Polk, directing the advance of Col. Yell's pay td his family. He was podr, and his family were dependent upon him. He had a young lad at Georgetown college; and we learn, so states a Washington letter in the New York Herald, that the President has adopted this boy, and will-edu cate him and regard' hid) as his own son; and that he will see to.the comfortof the family. b. Slum Boat Collisioit.—The Hibernia, Na. 2, bound up, and the New England-No. on her way down, came in contact, at the head of Four .Mile bar, about 12 o'clock Thursday, by Which some little darneje was sustained: Had it not been fort the extraordinary exertions of the crews of both •,huats, the accident would Probably have been much greater, as the river is shoal at the plaee where it occurred, and the boats being very long do not handle quick when on shoal Water..--.Ci a .
