TAYLOR AND THE ADMINISTRA- The situation of General Taylor in Mexico. is one which Ought to arrest the attention of every Americana who loves t h e f a me o f men that have done honor to their country.— The history - 6f the United litotes scarcely furnishes an in -stance of Military skill, superior to that evinced by - Gen. Taylor during his command in Mexico. His has displayed his wiener; by the adoption of means and evolutions suit ed to the circumstances. of the country, and the peculiar character of the people ; and while be was supplied with men and monition, and was allowed to feel himself a COlll - with the good wishes and sympathies of the Go vernment, IV well as the people of his country, be. evinced Masterly spirit nod skill that never failed of producing a correspooding effect upon the eziemy, and of exciting the continence and admiration.of the country. But most un lorptitatelv, the admiration eif the peop3mformed a cause of envy in 'the President. and hie immediate attendants, as great aaa did to Saul, the !diktats and greetings by which the. al Israel baited the prowess and success of the cal ' hint' Davin. "So u l has slain his thousands, and David his • : tens of thousands," shouted the Israelites and the "Lord's anointed" felt the crown - trembling on his bead, and it fi natty Passed front the trembling. envious King,. to the man , who so fought his battle, "no son of his succeed ing." i With equal etry. with equal political jealousy, hare the power! at IVashington listened' to the honest, heartfelt congratulations of the people, nod the expreidon of their crateful enthusiasm at the noble efforts of Taylor. efforts that have excited the admiration of the most accomplished commanders of Europe, anti, probably, (rem the stone ap prehensions. We will not folloW the parallel further, thou ;h. perhaps: the persecutions which David suffered at thedmaids of Saul might he quoted; but we have to do with torn and events of another. age. Gen. Taylor has been left in a position which is too touch exposed, not to excite a suspicion that something more than a belief that Ate has; sate, or that troops were more wanted elsewhere, has slut:tested the'onler under which he has been resting ' anti aCIJUZ. • and so strong is this impression, that the peo ple will hold to a fearful arcountabilitfthe nthninktnition of the country, if o he apprehensions for the fate of the gal lant (Intend should be in any considerable degree realized. 'the rptestion of [because ut the war was. for n time. merg en in the glory- 'which Gem Taylor was acquiring for the nation, and for a day or two. thepeople even committed the naistakeLof imputing to thus Administratioti n part of the crealit-which'the army nattier Taylor was acquiring; but the spirit-of jealousy so - soon mainiti:steti itself at Wash ington, that the tins:pike was not perpetuated; and now . the people ask Taylor lime been kept in a Post. tion .0 Unworthy lifs'famm and his tanner services ? They 'feel that his command' lutebetun flanks any thing but creds Milne to'him and they are hem - ming satisfied' that there is at the bortotia of all this Wrong, a Petty. jealousy at Wnsh , inglon. which would rathitr see Taylor 'thileated, broken down use a commander, and the countrililjured'thereby, than to endure the consetmcnee of his continued EOCCCaP. Titanc are many points in the experience of Taylor, within a few months, that strongly resemble the vexations and melancholy experience of t. , ir John Moore; Who corm nuentlealthe Euchsh army in the Peninsular wan of Writ.

' • GEe. TAYLOR sm Tits WAft DEPAILTMEXT -In the correspondence between Gen. Taylor and the War Department, published by order of Congress; we find the following severe but de. served ,rebuke administered' by Gen. Taylor for interfering with the subordinates under his com mand, and creating confusion in,his arrangements. The letter- from,-!'which the extract Is given, is da ted, Canip, near Monterey, 0ct...16, 1846. . tt In conclusion, I feel it my duty to make some remarks which 'I would gladly have byen spared the necessity of submitting. I feel it - due to my position and to the service, lo record: My protest against the manner in which the-department has sought to makOan important detachinent from my -command, specifically indicating hot only the general . officers: but to a considerable extent the troops that wekto Compose . it. While I remain in command of the army against' Mexico, and am, therefore. lastly , held responsible bribe . govein merit and , the' country for the conduct of its open. .ations, 1 must claim the right of organizing all detachments from it, and regulatinethe tirite and and manner of their service. Above all do I rob alder it important,plat the Department of Wei 'should refrain from corresponding with my sub ordinates and communicating Orders:and instruc tions on paints which, by all rifiliteri...precept and. practice pertain exclusively to the4ifieral in chief command. Confusion and diriaster alone can re sult from such a course. The reason alleged, viz: the fuss of time in communicating with General Patterson, has no application ; for the Secretary's despatch came from that officer to my bead-quarters in sixty hours. - end he could not move, at any rate, without drawing largely upon this column fur artillery and regular troops. r beg it may be understood that' my retnarka have no personal application. It is quite probable, that in the event of mating such a detachment, I would have placed it under Major General Patter son ; but I conceive that this mode of regulating details, and ordering detachments direct from the Dv:lament of War, is a violation of the integri ty of the (pier command in the field, pregnant with the worst evils, and against which'l deem it my duty, respectfully, but earnestly to protest."

Taylor has been placed in a very critical- situation;and we sh ! ?uld not be surprised deli the places - along the Rio Grande, re cently captured, should fall again ioto the hands of the - Mexicans, owing to the miserably bungling mannerin which the war has been managed at Washington. Should such prove to be the case, it would cost upwards of fifty tuitions of dollars to recover the position we occupied a few weeks since on the Rio Grande, without taking into con sideration' the immense sacrifice of life. The war was commence‘lin iniquity, and the present Adi,ninistration will probably end it in disgracer P n orn Es r F] LF I tts D —Mr. Cla'y's Raleigh Letter.—The following eitract i froin a letter writ teii,by. the Hon. Henry Clay, it Raliegh, April . 17t11, 1844, will be read with interest just now. its predictions having been so fully verified. The sentiments, moreover, are worthy of agreat states , man and a pure patriot: ..,Mexico hes nut abandoned, of persevere in the assertion of her rights by, actual force of -roma, ~which, if suspended, are. intended to be renewed., Under these circumstances, if the Government of Me United Statei were to acquire Texas, it would acquire along with it, all Me ineumbrances which Texas .is under, and among them, the ac. sal or suspended war between Mexico and Tex , [' as. Of 'that consequence there cannot be a doubt. kANNEXATION AND WAR WITH MEX— ICO ARE IDENTICAL. Now, for one,lcer tainly am not willing to involve this Countr:i in a foreign war for the object of acquiring Texas. I know, there ere those who regard such a war with indifference and as a trifling affair, on account of the weakness of Mexico, and her Inability Co inflict serious injury upon this Country. But I do. not took upon it thus lightly. I regard all wars as grear,calamitiea, to be avoided it possible, and honorable peace as the wi..est and truest policy of this country. What the United States most need, are union, peace and patience. Nor do I think that the weakness of a power should form a motive in any case, for inducing us to engage in or to deprecate the evils of war.— Honor and good faith and justice are equally due from this country towards the weak as towards the strong. And, if an act of injustice, were to be perpetrated towards any Power, it would he more 'compatible with the dignity of the Nation, anti, in my judgment, less dishonorable lo inflict it upon a powerful instead of a weak foreign Na tion."

Whiting, 'there also came Gen. Taylor's order, dated Ague Nedra, .teb.`2lst,• which doubtless called for reinforce ment`,' At 2 o'clock.on the afternoon of the 27th, another express arrived at Carmargo froth Ithe :Quiirtermester et. Monterey, saying that an express ' had arrived at. Saltillo on -the 23d bringing infer illation that Santa Anna had sent a summons to Gen. 'TaYlor demanding his surrender. Gen. Tay lovreplied that he must come and take him.— Santa Anna stated that he had 20,000 men,,and if Gen Taylor did 'not surrender, p his force weld.] be cut to pieces. The note concludes by saying that utile express which left after dark last night, siva Taylor woe giving the Mexicana 'hell !" ' This may be 'coMidered the last official commu nication received. all subsequent information being derived from Mexicans.. A note from 'the Post j master - at Monterey states that Gen. Taylor had fallen back from Neuva to Sahillo. Dr. 'Jarvis thinks That this is Probably true. The Mexicans i say that Gen:Taylor 'hail lost six pieties of ;can ' non at Ague INleuva, Gen. Marshall has gone to - the Pass Los Muertos to fortify it and large (pan ' tities of emmonition had been despatchedirom i 1 , Monterey o Saltillo. 1 , It' was atly feared at Carmargo that a detach ment of th third Ohio regiment, under Colonels Mergan and Irving, had been cut off by a force of 3000 Mexicans. Col./Morgan had seven corn- , pontes at Serralvo, and;Col. Irvin three at Marvin. The-enemy is said to have occupied Marin the . afternoon of the 23d. On the morning of that day Cot. Irving left Marin to join his force with that of .Col.'Morgan, at . Serralvo, Morgan evacu ated Serralvo on the 24th, having:destroyed all 'the supplies that he could not carry away with him, and must have encountered the. enemy 'on his route.' - A train of 120 wagons' which left Car' 1 . margo on the I.9th, with provisions and clothing is said to have been attacked by the Mexicans on the 24th, near Ramos. arid with their escort cap. tared. This report was brought in by a mule driver who escaped. A. hundred Mexican stories diver in circulation; at Carmargo when Dr. Jar vis left. In reference to the battle going on be tween Gen. Taylor and .Santa :Anna, they 'said it ' h a d already continued three days, with great loss on our side, but much, greater en the Mexican side. In addition to 'the above, the' Picayune further learns from Dr. Jarvis , that a bearer of despatches had left Camargo for Tampico, and sailed from the mouth of the Rio Grande on board theateamshiplto lileKiin. It was feared he could not reach Tampico before all the troops had de. parted, which would be lamentable as that seems . I to be the only point from which Gen. Taylor could expect reinforcements. A letter from, an officer Of the army dated on board' a steamboat on the Rie Grande; 65 miles above Matamoros, at 3 o'- Clock on the 3d, says- that the Mexicans report that Gen. Taylor repulsed Santa Anna, and that the latter had sustained. a loss of two thou sand. From all accounts there can be no doubt that a battle has been fought, and reports Mue l ler ate favorable to the American, arms, but it must im borne in mind that 5000 cannot cope WWI 20,- 000 forever.. • It is certain that Gen. TayloJ hail a Mexican army in front and - another at his rear, and each of these larger than his whole command. The whole valley of the Rio Grande is in a very ' critical state, qie Mexican citizens are abandoning their homes iii , crovetle. , Matamoias and Carrnar 'go are stripped of their native inhabitants, Who 'dread the approach of their Own army more than the presence of ours. No fears are expressed for jthe safety of C . armfgo, as it is strongly forti fi ed. The reported capture of McCulleugh's command is unfounded. . ' . . . . Since the above was in type, later intelligence I; stiitel'that Gen. Taylor had retreated to - Monterey, No doubt was ectertained that Gen. Taylor' can ! • ' , sustain himself ati long as his supplies last, but all communication Was cut Off.i r l The numbers of the enemy are said to he over whelming, and commended by Santa Anna in II person. An attack on Matamoros was anticipated. The rumors were numerous, and hut Little can be. said with certainty;except that Gen: Taylor having been deprived of the force necessary to de fend the country he had taken posession of, it may now fall into the handaof the enemy, tempo rarily at least. Gen - Taylor has. made, requisitions on Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama for ten regt.. mente, to proceed forthwith to the Rio Giande.-- The New Orleans Bulletin sayii that the quota for Louisiana of infantry would leave immdiately.

Polk, President of the United States: • , 4 • " Sir—The late proeeedings at Washington have ahem' that in the opinion of the GovernMent it is deemed necessary that there :should be at the, scene of hostilities a person in whom are united: high diplomatic powers and a full control of our, military forces, and as' it is considered illegal and improper to place a mere civilian or a junior off-; car in command, over the distinguished veterans! no - Pr in the field, the undersigned would respect.! fully urge upon the President to proceed' at once'. to the scene of action, and by his personal pre sence give that tone and efficiency to our military operations which would result from the union of such high powers in a single individual. No ob jections could be urged to, order from the consti tutional chief of our military and naval forces, and the American people might he justified in the choice of an Executive who in moments of diffi culty does not hesitate to hazard his person in the post of danger and of duty.
