GEN. SCOTT AND MR. TRW
The Nee/Work Courier and Enquirer
has an article on affairs in Mexico reflect
ing with great severity upon the course of
the Administration with regara to General
Scott, and particularly is the matter of
the Trist Mission. In the course of the
article the Courier says :
.:It is a fact, which the Union will not)
question, that Mr. Trist, under the instriic- I
tions of the War Department, sought to!
conclude an armistice with Mexico, which
should prevent our army from advancing
upon the Capital for a certain period.—
That interval of security might, and un
doutedly would, have been improved by
the enemy in preparing for resistance.—
Gen. Scott would have been paralyzed for
weeks,—unable to make any movement ;1
.deprived of reinforcements and supplies;
—doomed to stand still, inactive, nod with-1
a small force gradually dimished by sick
ness, until the foe should have marshalled
its hosts and prepared its batteries for his
reception. And all this was to be done'
without his consent or even knowledged
hut in such a way as should throb . upon
him the whole responsibility for any die•
aster which ensue. Ile was solicited to

it might contain.

But the same result is likely to be attained

Government to send on reinforcements at
the time they were promised."
Tint WAR AND VICTORMS..--It is a fact
worth remarking, that. although onr ar
mies have been invariebly victoriousm the
war which the Adtaieisiration is *aging,
the Ailtuinititreff has &tea
moat signally in'every battle it has ti►uglit.
It einnmenced the witefrith a majority of
nearly sixty in Cengressi and in.one sin
gle election, carried on in different States,
the changes tire so groat as to exhibit a
majority now against them—the elections
iu Virginia and New Hampshire having
rendered a Whig majority in the next
Congress certain. This fact proves that
the people are fully eisposed to prosecute
the war into which the, country has been
forced, out of respect to its own honor, but
tcr punish with its displeasure those who
needlessly plunged us into it. Had the
war been one which lite people colanta.4

A LETTER FROM SANTA ANNA
The Pittsburg Commercial.lournalgives.
the translation of wiener said Air havebeen
written hyllentit - Annaio Mr. Polk, imme
diately after the disastrous defeat of Cerro
Gordo. The editor does not say by what
means the original was placed in his hands,
but says that the letter . will, "speak for it
self." Of course, there can be no doubt
of its genuineness. The Mexican chief
tain is indignant at whithe terms the per
fidy of Mr. Polk's Generals, SCOTT and .
TAYLOR. in frustrating the schemes so
shrewdly planned by himself and, r. Polk
at Havana, and undertakes to remonstrate
with his friend the President upon the im
propriety of keeping these peadions Gen
erals longer in the service. To prove their
perfidy, he goes into a minute detail of his
intercourse with "Rough and Zack" from
the time of thelatter's'sppearance on the
Rio Grande up to the affray alleluia Vis
ta, and complains bitterly of Zack's utter
disregard of the "sass" fitruished by Mr.
_Polk. Disgusted with the obstinacy and
perfidy of Gen. Taylor, so fairly brought
to view in the batde of Baena Vista, the
Mexican chieftain comes to the - conclusion
tlytt Zack cannot be familiar with the wish
es of Mr. Polk and his government, and
turns to Gen. Scott. who had just arrived
at Vera Cruz. After referring to the Bu
ena Vista matter, his excellency goes on
to say.
"I hurried from the scene of this misfor
tune, resolved to give this bloody North
American time to certainly receive your
commands. After waiting a long time,

ded that he must be either privately hostile
to the personally, or bent' on thwarting
your Excellency's peculiar plans of "con

to supersede him by appointing the great

the hope that he would be us easily dispo

Cruz to the General Scott of Soup, was
but - enough to vindicate the honor of my
country. But I gathered a large force 'to
meet him at Cerro Gordo, and taking
what I considered to be an impregnable
position, ordered out some skirmishers

my dinner. But did I get it? Your Ex

PROBABLY. unicevaity OF THE HISTORY
OF A FORMlU'Raene—The Lower Sandia.
ky (Ohio) Democrat says:
About two miles from this village ova
land known as the "Kerr Tract." there is
an ancient mound, circular at the base,
about 39 feet in diameter, rising ovally to a
point which is surmounted by.an oak stump,
probably originally two feet in diameter,
which is almost totally decayed from age.
A few days since some boys dug into the .
mound; and nearly under the stump, at
the, , depth of three feet, a skeleton was
found, but portions of it in a fair degree of
preservation. Near the head was found
two stone hatchets, an arrowhead, a
stone pipe, and—far more singular—a lot
of plates, apparently isinglass, which are
covered with tines and hieroglyphics of
different and beautiful colors. The colors
mid workmanship betoken a more advanc.
ed and entirely different state of the arts
than has been heretofore discovered in re
mains of Indian tribes. Some of the plates
were destroyed, but there are fifteen pre
served. They are circular, oval in shape.
and about seven inelies,by ten in size. A
pipe -bowl, beautifully finished from stone,
was also found, the bowl of which is near
ly round, rises from a base, on the bottom
of which are the figures 1401. Measures
have been taken under the s upervision of
sonic intelligent citizens farther to explore
this singular mound. There is little doubt
that these plates contain the history of
some former race that has inhabited this
country and farther discoveries will be a
waited with impatience.

Mary asked for her sister and family. The

himself the sister, and opening his vest

too real for doubting. The couple then
went out of the house, and taking the Pitta

drove to Clairmount, where he went to

wish. On waking he sent for the Duke
of Wellington and said to him : "Will your
grace do use the favor to see the Queen for
me, and say to her, that I take very little
pleasure in her joking. She is Queen, I
know, and in public I am only the first of
her subjects ; but I claim to he King in
my bed chamber, and if that is not to her
taste, I shall take my leave for the Conti

charged with such missions before, went
to her Majesty with the message. She
was _terrified at the idea that a husband so
fondly cherished and so strictly tyranized
over could escape from her, and ordered
her coach and went to Clairmount, where
the entente cordiale was established to the
satisfaction of all the World."

THE ADMINISTRATION AND THE
WAIL—The views ore& Doniplum in relation to
the war am calculated to produce a deep irrigation
throughout the country. The Colonel says that
if our Government had properly supptarted Gene
rals Scott and Taylor; and placed at the disposal
of each 'of theme officers 20,000 men, they, would
me this have enbdued the whole Mexican Power ;
in other woeds, the war would have been termina
ted long sine°, and we would now be in theen
joyment of all the blessings and repose of peice...
Why, then, has the . Cherenuneed hesitated to die'
dame dutyl _Why has it protracted the war,
and thug unneciessmily and wantonly induced the
expenditure of millions of treasure, the shedding
of rivers of blood, and the sacrifice tnroh of
live. ? The War, in , thelanguags of some of the
beat and ablest officers of the army, has not been
prosecuted with effit4einey,' because the Govern
meet has negtectedtofurnish reinforcements. The
brilliant victories of Gen. Taylor have been robbed
of half their influence by the criminal apathy and
indifference of the authorities at Washington.—
The triumph at Cerro Gordo was greatly impaired
for the same culpable reason. Gen. Taylor has
been compelled to linger for months at 2itontarrey,
and Gen. Scott for weeks at Puebla and itaneigle
husband, and all for want of reinforcements.
The conduct of the government in this matter
has been infamous. It has cruelly trifled with
the safety and the lives of trur own troops, while it
has revived the courage and hopes of the Mexi
cans, and thus protracted the war. The public
indignation on these points is nearly universal,
and confined to niapatticular party. "'The two di
vision, of our army under Taylor and Soot; have
been cruelly, nay, wickedly abandoned, either to
inglorious inactivity or dangerous peril, and lan
guage of censure too strong, cannot he employed
upon the subject True, the Washington Union,
roused and goaded by the complaints of the pram
and the people, is endeavoring to shield the Ad
ministration, by affirming that our many in Mexi
co has already been largely reinforced. The ab
surdity of such an apology may ho duly apprecia
ted when we remember that at our last accounts
Gen. Scott had been anxiously and impatiently a
waiting reinforcements for weeks, and that rep to
that time not a solitary t regiment had arrived at
