It waa to wards evening on the 23d, when tho niottar, with much labor, had been planted in thee me. tery, near the cathedral, and within reach of the Plaza. 'The flrst ehcll, discharged about 7, P.

The letvr wo dated 9 o'clock, P. M , on the 231. but Col. Mol mo, the bearer, did not reach Gen. Taylor till the next morning rear 9 o'clock. He aro'n return- erl with Gen.

'tonal surrender before 12 o clock ; to which it seems, Ampudia would have aenled, but be ing dissuaded by his officers, he requested a con ference, which waa granted. Itiatatej that Gen. Worth privately expressed hia opinion to Gen. T.t that the terms demanded were too se vere and humiliating, and tlmiicrht Gen. T. could affird to be more liberal. At the conlerence, however, Gen. Taylor sli'l insisted upon hia term with some pertinacity, but finally agreed to leave everything with Ihrt e commissioner on either aide. The commissioner appointed were Gen. Worth, Gov. Henderson, of Texas, Cd. Davis, of the Kentucky re.'iment- -Gen. Butler being wounded and by theso commis sioners, the terms, aa published, were agreed upon. They are said to be very generally un popular with our whole army. Ampudia The Malninoras Flag states that a Mexican officer, who waa in the battle of Monterey, say that 'Ampudia wum in favor of capitulating upon the terms first offered by Gen, Taylor, 'to have the ei'y tcith thtir live,') but waa withheld, and made to demand a more ho norable exit fur hia troops, by the entreat iea of his officers, who be soup lit hiin not to dishonor them by yielding to audi term.' Thia ia more than probable. Tex Jl'figtr Haya' regiment wa dis tinguished in the attacked on the Bifhop'a I1a- lace, under Gen.

The America army did not exceed 5000. and 700 of these were reserved as a camp guard. In protect the camp from force of Mexican caval ry , so that we had but 4300 men in the engage ment. Nearly all our most effective ordnance had been left behind. There waa onlv the Flying Artillery, which, in order to do much wounded, ia fast recovering.

S"cindly. A copy of the New Orleana Tropic found ita way into the encampment yesterday, and it created an excitement 1 aha 11 only par tially attempt to describe. It stated, in so ma ny words, that Gen. Taylor mind yott, the he ro of the Sin and Dth ol May waa to lie super seded, and Maj, Gen. Butler was lo receive the appointment to the tbief command of this army. I never sar st much excitement in my life. Our company rCip.

Thry sec nod as nngry as the mpti, and, after pledging theinselve to us to throw tip their commissions if the statement proved true, the whole battalion met in pu'ulic assembly, and Unanimously adopted a resolution, that they wnulrf form guard of liimor to escort the Ol I lleVo to the Rio Grar.de fn the event of fits Ic ing superseded. The gallant Tennesseeana (the I'oroea of Monterey) now rnVight the excitement, then the Mieisippians. und I firmly believe that the mo ment the government attempt tins proceeding the army uf occupation will be broken up. This army has mi confidence whatever in Gen. Dot It r. Hi charge (the second otir) Was Vl-timti, ivjudifiout and ih'ijfectual , and it was during this charge that the immense laughter of our force, especially on the part of tho Tunnei-secans, took place. It waa made by the orders of tion. fluller, without orders from Gen. Taylor, and I firmly believe that we all would have i-hared the fate nf our lamented Colonel, (Watson,) and been !iit to pieces, had not Gen. Taylor rodo up un der a most trcmenrfoue nro and ordered u lo retire. It was hern that o'ur beloved General had his horse shot. However, he escaped, and hi escape Wbssml is yet a miracle, for think I may feiy ray tl.at I saw tlie dust of fifty bu! let fly round tho ho-ifsat hUliorsp. Gen.

In one word, Cutler has the uratiimou eon' ierit of the volunteers to re'urn to private life; and for one, I solemnly declare, that although I came here to serve clViring the War, I will ap ply for my ducharge before I will ever concent to accompany a charge of bayonets, which shall be made nnder th order of M-j"f Gyn."

I again repeat, that if our Govern ment should attempt to aupcraede Gen.

They, the vol on leers, will never consent to serve under say other General. A; not even under Twigga or Worth, both of whom have at Monterey gained immortal honors.

Yon may, nrobably, wish to know how a young soldier feel when be smell powder for (he first lime I will tell yo-i. At first I frit a though I should like to have been but of the party I felt decidedly 'natty' and lootted from one end of the battalion to the other to see if 1 could ee any one run. Yes, 1 felt like run nitig, 7 must acknowledge, but they all stood like men, and I could not bear tho idea to be the fiM to run, and, therefore, kept on with the rest. Tho Tennesseeana were about ten yarda in our advance, the Misaisaippiane about the same distance in our rear. You will there fore see, gentlemen, that 1 had to stand up to the rack, fodder or no fodder.1 At this moment an awful fire wss opened on the Tennesseean. They full by acores, but the balance atood like veterans. We were fi red upon by a cro.ss lire from 9 and 12 pounders and a murderous di.-chare of small arms from corners of streut, doors, windows, and tops of hoti-rs. By this time, Col. Watson waa try Frig to L'el uh ahead of the Tennesseeana, (having appli ed for the advance and received from Gen. Tay mr the promise, of it,) and while in the act of giving thrrti cheors, was shot down. He waa on our right, some twenty pocj?s ahead of ua. 1 saw him tall, and all apprehension now left me. I made sn involuntary effoit to get to him to afllird him help, but waa borne on by the pres sure of Ilie tuns behind, and willingly yielded to it, impelled by a thirst for revenge that would have carried me through a storm of bullets, or In id ne out in Monterey. We were novV with in fitly yards i.fthe Wall, behind which the ene my were lying in perlect security, and at this miiment Gen. Tayh rode up in gallant style, accompanied by a young uftker. Now came the thrill ng scene of. all. X hugo Tennesseean Ming out ''silence, men here come Old Zsck three cheer for Old Zack." Three tremendous cheer were now given, un til . , "HraVen'a broad arch rang back the sound." t tremb'ed fir hia safety, for I expected to see him fiill every moment. Great TJ.xl, i never ctn forget tTiat alglit. Tho "ollnnt old Soldier turned to the young of ficcr who accompanied him afld teceived from him a spy-glass, which ho applied 16 his eye, ns if to survey the scene around hint. There la ul at li'at 401) men shot down , the General calmly thut tip the glass and returned it to the officer, and then ridinjr still neorer the foe, un til he was even up with the Tennesseans, gave tbe order In 'retire.' (followed him with my eye 'ti',l I saw h;m beyond tho danger of the small arms, and then almost involutarily utter ed an ejaculation to tlio Almighty that his Fn valnn'jfe life was still preserved to his 'country. As I was returning saw a wounded volunteer, who begged iiu to give hitn some water, 1 did so, and carried him ah my back to a place of security. Ila was a Tenr.eweeao I when 1 laid him down in the presence of las officers, ho was a corp o. , urn pen tem.m.tiio Hytit wa Ifarlul. The word may lia ungoldierlike I cannot Iirlp it, it was horridly fearful.

Th lit divition marched out on th 26th, the ii on tb 27th, and the balance on the 28th. I taw the two last, and was able to form a toler ably good idea ef th number of men in them. There could not have been fewer than 2500 in each divition, of regular soldiers, well armed and equipped. Add to these tome 2000 bortemen who left th city in tmali partiet, during th font daya' fight, and at leaat 5009 citizens of the town who took Up arms in its defence, and you have a pretty atrong force for the defence of a place which nature and art have combined to render a airong at any in the world. How such an army, thus kitiiated, could ever allow itself to ba con quered by a fore of less than 7000 men will al ways appear strange to m. The cowardice of Ampndia is now established beyond a doubt. So eareful wat he of bit person, that it is said be never once left hia house when any-firing waa going on. What a pity that, one of our shell could not have dropped into hia bed room. : I felt perfectly satisfied when I saw the Mexi can troops pass out of town, with the arrange ments which G?n. Taylor had made with them. To have taken ail these men prisoners would have been useless; their arms we did not want, their horses were worthless, with a few excep tions, and it would hav been very expensive and troublesome to feed and guard so many men ; and, moreover, it would have cost many a valuable life tb have carried the city at Tho point of thb baVoue't. 1 rode out with the bead of the column day be fore yesterday, when their 2d division left town. That scene alone would almost bave remunera, ted one for the long journey to MonteVey. At the head of the column rode the commander of the division with bis stuff, accompanied by Msj. Scott, of the 5th Infantry, with hit Adjutant (Lieut. Dees'? and Lieitts. Hanson, Robinson and McLaws. Col Peyton rode by the side of the chief, and received a very affectionat embrace from bim ab we turned out to let the columrt march on, when th head bad reached Palactt Hilt. , And now wat presented a teen that I can ver forget. Two regimenta ot infantry led offi with colora flying, drum beating, and the trum peter blowing with all their might. The fife made all the noise they could. The meti were all well armed, and the whole division teemed t be well appointed, with the exception of shoes. in Hcu of which, most of the men wore sandals. Three pieces of artillery were in the centre of the column, one six, one nine, and one twelve- pounder. The line, marching four abreast, ex tended about one mile. 1 he army wa accompa nied by a great many females ; officers' wive oii horseback, tbeir facet mu.lled, arid with baft on; aoldier' wivet mounted on donkeys or on foot, tome of thefn carrying burden that I would scarcely think of packing upon ttiulet; youn women with short petticoatt and hats, tiippins lightly along; youe.g girls trudging along with their little valu-.blet in their armt. 1 noticed one pretty little i reature, about nine years old, with a pet chit ken cn one art.) and a parrot perch ed upon her hand. The ugliest woman I evri heard of was walk ieg behind a peer little fleabit donkey, belabor ing biro with a large stick. Th donkey ws riddea by a young woman, a second edition of the uld one. A precious pair, that mother and daughter. Most of the soldiers looked sullen, and their eyes gleamed with hatred, and a de air for revenge. One of McCullocb'a bones, a valuable animal, which a man was leading out o( the way of the Mexican troops, wat teited end led off, the ioldiert levelling their muskets at tho bottler when he endeavored to recover his horse. The animal wts promptly returned, however, on the circumstance being mentioned to that commanding officer. Yetterday morning the last division was dra'wul out on the Plaza next to the cathedral that is, all that the plaza could hold and Capt. Miles, who ia stationed there with his regiment, (Ttri Infantry.) drew up hia command and saluted tb regiments as they passed him. I never beard & noise until yesterday morning pandemoniums never con'ainrd aa noisy a Jang aa these Mexi cans ar. It teemed to be the particular endea vor of every man tb make all the noite that lay in hit power. There nnut have been fifty bug lert and as many filers and drummers playing at lh same time, and no three of them attempting the tame tune. I taw several regiments of fine-looking sn. diert, men of good size, young, active and athle tic. Tb lit divition it encarrped in the grove, J mile east of lbs town one of the loveliest spot ia th world, thaded by large pcan and live oak tree. Th.t grove seems to be tb only wood land in this region, and it retotted lo by the till' lent of Monterey as a place for holding pic-iiid partiet. The 2d, a volunteer division, it alsd encamped in Ibis grove. Gen. Worth's division" oecupiet the town. Th citizens ar beginning to return in great numbers, and appear to Net glad that th Mexican Army bat left them. II. Raoofiira tuk Hills.
