Monterey Mexicn, from the IDA to tk29th Septemher, M .. ,,,, .. ., On tb 19th Geo.

This waa the nearest position from which the array coold nb Inin supply nf water and bread, and he with out the reach of the enemies' batteries. The. remainder of the 19th waa occupied liy the en gineer in making reconn'iiacnr.es of the city, for the purpose of erecting batteries to cannon ade from the heights. On the i 20th Gen. Wort'i v as ordered with hie division to move by a circuitous route to the right to pain the Saltillo road, beyond the west of the town, and lo storm the height above the Itiahop's Pslace, which vital point the enemy ' auimsred to have strangely neglected. Circum stones caused him to halt on the night of the 1 'JlHh, short ol t'.ie intended position. j On the morning of the 2lst he continoed his route, snd after an encounter with a Inrge body of the enemy's cavalrv and infantry, supported by srtillcry from the heights, he r pulsed them with loss and finally eticampcJ, covering the imsssgry to the Saltillo road. It n as here dis covered that besides the fort at the Bishop's palace and the occupation of the heights above, there were two forts on commanding eminences on the opposite side of the Swgeuin which had been fortified and occupied. These two latter heights' were then stormed snd carried by the force under General Worth, and the guna being immediately turned upon the city, a plurging lire was commenced upon the Bishop's paljcn. On the same morning, Ilie21t, the first divi sion of regular troops, under General Twiggs, nnd the volunteer division, under Gen. Butler, were ordered under srms to make a diversion to the left of the town in favor of the important "pemtiona of Gen. Worth. The 20 inch mor law and two 24 pound howitzers had been put in a battery on the night of the 20th in a ravine 1400 yards distant from the cathedral fort and citadel, and were supported hy the fourth regi ment of Infantry. At 1 o'clock, A. &!., on the 2Ut, the order was given for the battery to open upon the cita del and town, and immediately after the first discharge the division, with the 3d and 4th in- 1 fanlry in advance under Col Gartland who were ordered to reconnoitre and skirmish with the enemy on the extreme led of the city, and hould a prospect of success offer to carry the most advanced battery. This attack waa di rected by Major Mansfield, engineer; Capt Williams, of the Topographical engineer, and Major Kenny, quarter maater to the Texaa Raiigers. I A heavy fire from the first battery was imme diately opened upon the advance, but the troops mm turned, and entering the city, engaged with the enemy, hand to hand in the street. Passing through an incessant cross fire from the cit idol, and the first and second batteries, aa well as from the infantry who lined the para pets, streets and house-tops of the city, the rear of the first battery was captured, and the firo soon turned upon the enemy; thia and the re verse tire of the troops through the gorge of the works, killed or dislodged the artillerist and infantry from it, and the buildings occupied by inlantry immediately in it rear. Tiie first division waa followed and suppor ted by the Mississippi and Tenressee, and first Ohio regiments the two former regiments be ing the first to scale and occupy the fort. The Hiccess nf the day here stopped. The Misissip- p, Tennessee, ana nuio regiments, mougn warmly engsged in the streets for some time after the capture of the first bsttery and its ad j lining defences, were unable from exhaustion and the los ti.c v had tuctsinod, lo gsin more auvsnlsges. A heavy shower of rsin here esuie up lo cause s siinpension of hostilities be litre the close ot the day. The third, fourth em) fiist infantry and Bslti more baltallion remained as the garrison ot the captured position, under Col. Gartland, assisted by Cspt. Ridgeley's battery : two 12 pounders, one 4 pounder, and 1 hoiUcr wore cap'ured in thia fort. Three officers end some twenty or thirty men were taken prisoners. One ol the 12 pounders wss served agninat the second fort and defences, with captured ammunition, by Cspt. Ridgcly. The storming part of Gen. World's division also captured two nine poun- dirs, vkkb u xre also turned against their for mer uCji(i. On the mot ring of the 22d, Gen. Worth r.iiiuiiued In. ujieralwu. and with portion of his division ui'iriiied and curried successively tdti heights auove the Bishop' Pslses; bo'b were carried by coinsnind under captain Vin urn, of (he UJ artillery.

Quit man, from Ms position, rliscoTcred that the second and third posts and. the defences Esst of the city, had been abandoned by the enemy, who, apprehending another assault, on the night of id- 89d, bad retired from all hie defences to the main palace and it immediate vicinity. A command, consisting ofttro companies of M a taeippi and twoofTenneseee troop, were then thrown into the streets to reconnoitre, tnd soon became wholly engaged with the enemy. Thvy 'were Immediately supported by Col. Wood's regiment nf Texas Kangera, dismounted, by Drags' tight battery, -and the third infantry. The enemy's fire wss constant and uninterupted, frum afreets and house tnpOwrricadea, etc. In the vicinity of the Plaza, the pieces of Brsgg's battery were also ued with much effi ciency tar into the heart of the city. Thia en ffngetncnt, laated the best part of the day oitr troops having driven the scattering parties nf the evening and penetrated quite lo the defen ces n the nisin Plsxa. The advantage thus gained it wne not considered necesssry to hold, as the enemy had permanently abandoned the City and- its defences, except the main Plain, ita immediate vicinitv and the Cathedral fnrt or citadel, 'early in afternoon san.e day.

Thus ended the operationa on the 23d. Karly on the morning of the 24th, a commu nication waa sent to Gen. Taylor from Gen. Ampttdis, under flag nf truce, making an of fcr of capitulation, to which the former refused to accede, aa it asked more than the American commander would, tinder any circumstances, grant. At the same lime, a demand to surrender wss in reply made upon Gen. Ampudis; 12 o'clock, M., was the hour at which the acceptance or non-acceptance waa to be communicated to the American General. At 11 o'clock, A. M , the Mexican General aent, r queuing a porfonsl conference with Gen. Taylor, which was prin ted the principal officers ol rank on either aide accompanying their Generals. After several others iu relatk.i to the capitulation of the city, made on either side, and refused, at 4). P. M., Gen. Tsylor arose, and ssying he would give Gen. Am pud is one hour to consider and accept or refuse, left the conference with his officers. At the expiration of the hour, the discharge of the mortars to be the signal lor the recommence. men, ol hostilities. Before the expiration of the hour, however. an officer waa sent, on the part of Gen. Ampu dia, to inform the American General to avoid the further effusion of blood, and the national honor being satisfied by the exertions of the Mexicsn troops, he had, sfter consultstinn with the gencrsl officers, decided to capitulate, ac cepting the offer of the American General. The terms of capitulation you will have by mail. The only Baltimnrean or Philadelphian in the party, or nn the list nf killed or wounded, is Col. Wm. Watson of Baltimore. Gen. A in podia elated that his force amoun ted to "000 men, but it is f Minuted at 11,000.

The plsee wss murh more strongly fortified than Gen. Taylor had any idea of, and the Mex icans defended their woiks with skill snd deter mination. This morning Col. Monroe, ths Adj.

Gentlemen The city baa capitulated on the fallowing terms : The Mexican soldiers shsli be permitted to msrrh out of jowa whh their arms and six amall field pieces, leaving all their mu nitions of wsr behind, with sll their artillery and public stores. They sre to retire lo Linsres, sixty miles hence, snd sbout thirty miles north of Saltillo, snd sre not to spproach nearer than that to thia plsce within sixty dsys, or until each psrty rsn hesr from its respective government. Ampudia kept Gen. Tsylor until nesrly midnight Isst night, preparing the terma, &e. Many per sons, particularly the Texan volunteers who fought so bravely, sre disptessed at thee terms. The town wss sll but in our hands, snd could they be believed, hsve been tsken in three houra I believe that it would have required much more hard fighting to have taken it, but this was not the question with Gen. Tsylor. He snd sll his ofiirers knew perfectly well, of course, thst the town could toon be tsken, but he wanted no pri soners to tske up his time and eat out his sub stance; but he did have sn bject in view w hich will be reai heil by the turns of this rspitu'stion and that object will lead to a result most bene ficial to our government, under whose advice or order Gen. Taylor scted in agreeing to these terms. As I hsve s few moments to spare be fore the express goes out this morning, (he was detained tatt night by the slow progress of busi ness with Ampudis.) I will speak orthe operations of Gen. Tsylor on this side of the town. Msjor Mansfield, of the Engineers, reconnoi tred the enemy's works on the night of the 19th, but could obtain no very accurate information, although he approached very near to some of them on the heights. On the 90th Lieut Scar ritt and Lieut. Po.te were aent out to reconnoi tre the works, Scsritt on the right snd Pope on the left of the town. The latter approached and discovered the position ol baUarey on the ex treme left, and waa exposed to a fir of csnnon and musketry from Lancers, from which, sfter finishing his observations, he retired in safety. On the night of the 20th the moitar and howit zer battel ies were placed iu a position to play on the strong holds around the citadel. The ac tion commenced on the morning of the Slat, by the opening of these batteries Col. Garland's ftrigade were ordered to move to the left lor the purpose of storming the battery discovered by Lieut. Tope the dsy before, snd to occupy, if possible, the lower psrt of the city. Msjor Msntfield, Cspt. Williams and Lieut. Pope were ordered in sdvsnce to select the moat available point of attsck, and to direct the move ments of the column upon it. Three companies were thrown forward as skirmishers and advsn ced rapidly towards the works, followed by the Hrigads in line of battle, under cross firs of srtillery from th citsdel snd fort, and a heavy fire of musketry. The column cbsrged Into a street sbout 200 ysrds to the right of the battery passed the works entirely, snd effected sn en trance into the tower. After sdvsncing rapidly about 400 ysrds beyond the bsttery, they csme immedistely in front of a musked battery of ar tillery and musketry, which swept Ihe street 1 completely by its range. The barricsdes of the , atree'.s at sixty ysrds distsnce from the head of the column, were lined with Mexicsn troops, ! who, entirely covered themselves, opened a murderous disc barge of grape and musketry upon ths sdvsncing column. 1'very bouts in ths street wss pierced for musketry snd enfilsded the street in every direction. ruder this nre the following officers were killed or mortally wounded: Major Barber, 3d Infantry, by grape shot in the sbdomen; Cspt. Williams, Topographical Engineers, shot thro' the body by musket ball, fell in the street snd wss drs-ged info the doorway of a house by Lieut. Pope, amidst s shower of balls that cover ed him with dust. The gallantry of this young officer, now in his first battle, is spoken of in sdmirstion by the Army. Cspt.

A grest num ber of meu killed and wonnded number not known. It being impossible, in th opinon of th Officers, to effect any thing in attacking the bar ricades in front, th column moved rapidly up street to th right, with the intention ef turn ing them. Being reinforced by the Ohio regit ment, second chsrge was mads, under ths di rection of Gen, Better, which, owing to th tre mendous fire of musketry and grips from ths barricade and atone hoesea, likewise proved in effectual. The troops ware then ordered, by Gen. Tsylor, to rstire in good order and get un der rover frvm the enemy's Are, which order wss handsomely executed. The following officers wer killed or mortally wounded (sine died) in th second charge; Col. Watson, of th Psltimor reflation ; Capt. L. N. Morris, 3d Infantry; Lieut, p.

The New Oilcans Patria publishes s letter from a new correspondent at Havana, dated Sept. 22, in which an extract of a tetter from Mexico to a respectable merchant in Havana ia given, ex posing sn intrigue to which Ssnts Anna and our government are aaid to be privy. These Ms chisvelisn plots are told with alt the gravity of a belief in their truth, however absurd they ap pear upon the face of them. The writer says thst Genersl Sants Anna has engsged with the government of the United States to manifest publicly that he prosecutes ths wsr with energy, but, at the asm time, all his movements, snd every one nf his operstions must be, by pre-sr-rangement with the government of the United Ststes, conducted in a previously understood msnner thst nn result favorable to the cause of j Mexico will follow them. The Mexicsn peo ple will then be disposed thst sn sinicsble ar- j rangement should be entered into, which will be done in a manner prnjltuble to the I'niftd Stulei.

During ths term necesssry for the proper set tlement of sll these questions, it is sgreed thst the principal ports of the Mexican Republic will remsin under blockade by the United Statea squadron, to keep alive and increase the disgust snd losthing which it must naturally bring upon the enerajietd people, and thia will serve the pur pose considerably of getting the sufferers to de cisis in favor of a new revolution, and a pranun riamtnte sgsinst the wsr.

By recent sccounts from Florids, received by j the Haltimore Sun, it seems probable that Lynch J law has been resorted to for th punishment of I aome thieves snd robbers in thst Stst.

We have given up our rolumna almost exclusively to the news from the srmy. Gen Taylor's arrriy, after four dsys fighting, has tsken Monterey, th Isst stronghold of the Mexicans. Gen. Worth, it will be seen, bore a most distinguished part in the contest. The volunteers exhibited ss much srdor snd courage in sction, as the oldest Slid best trained veleiansof ths regular army. ! The Mexicans hsd all the advantage of a j choire of position, and were protects! by en- trenchments in and around the city. Tb Ame ricans had the worst kind vf fighting to dr., an , engagement in the streets in which they had to ' force their way in the face of well manned bat- teries, and amidst a gallant fire of musketry fiom ths house tops snd paran-ts. j The enemy defended their city with murh bravery, and the battles were desperate encnun- men, renld hsve svsiled sgsinst the forre with which hey were contending. The volunteers appear to have done their duty handsomely, mar ching opto the firs and engaging th Mexicans like well-tried veterans. Col. Watson, of the Baltimore battalion fell, fighting brsvety at the head nf hia men, in at tempting to storm a masked battery of artillery and musketry, which was pouring a deluge ef grape and cannister shot, at th distance of sixty ysrds. The rommsnd of th battslion then de volved npon the gallant James E. Stewart, ef Baltimore. Captsin S. greatly distinguished h'mself, and wss, with Lieutensnt Owens, wsrtn ly complimented by Genersl Taylor. Capt. S. v. as attscked by five Mexicans, wh-n h lost his sword, but be knocked one down with bis fist, seised bis musket, and diseomfitted three irmre, bayoneting them. Lieut. Owens led thirty men up to the very mouth of a twelve pound battery, which be look without the loss of a single man. Other esamples of gallantry on ths part of the vo lunteers sre als mentioned. The city of Monterey, which bss fallen iota the bands of our troops, is ths cspitsl of th Ststs of New Leon. It is on th Fernsndo ri"er. sbout 220 miles from its mouth. It bss well paved streets, snd mostly one-story stone buildings. The population is about 15 000, and th city is ! situated on the main travelling roots from the R' Grande to the city ef Menco. C7 The storm on Tuesdsy wss so violent, as to blow down ths frsme of Ihe new Bridge st th moutb of the Shsmokin creek. The arches were not quite finished The timber ia Very much brokeo and injured.
