We should probably answer this skulking scribbler by informing bim that our ideas of independence do not consist in making secret attack under an assumed name, thotfgh the length of bis auricular appendages should require such a safe-guard to screen him.

If we have not exhibited that tintert, intense, ar dent, unabated and unyielding affection for Gov. Sbunk so strongly manifested by the editors of the Gazette, it must be attributed to the cold sin cerity of our nature, and to the fact that the Go vernor never promised and disappointed us with a judgeship to kindle up the fire of our affection. His maihematital questian we will solve by ask ing another: If tbe democratic nominee should be defeated, bow much will the Gazette have contributed toward the defeat, by ila acurillity. fought with desperate valor, worthy the charar , ter of Mexican. ' The enemy also fought brave ly; bis men aaemed line so many nevus wnom it wa impossible to defeat without annihilation. He made a third and last charge with frefh force and heavy guns, and our gallant troops, having exhausted their grape-abot, were forced, very un willingly, to retreat and yield up the fortress, of which the enemy took poieiin. Our soldiers retreated towards the city, but were unfortunate- ly cut off by a detachment of the enemy's caval ry, and auoul a inousanu were mare prisonrrs, but were soon released, as the enemy had no men to guard them. The enemy then opened hia bat teries on the Mill El Rey, (.King's Mill,) close upon Chapultepec, which, after obstinate fight ing and great loss to tbe Americans, we were o bliged to abandon. The two actions continued over nine hours, ond were the severest, considering our small number of soldiers and the enemy's large force, that have been fought. Our loss in killed nnd wounded was not more than 3(10, while the ene my lost over 400, or at least such was the report of deserters from the American camp, who came In lie in it, n ev.niriir Reeini that the city would inevitably be attacked. General Santa Anna, du ring the actions, caused a number of trenches to be cut across the road leading to the city, which were flooded with water. On the moruing of the I tlh. before daylight, the enemy with a part of his force, commenced his march upon the city Our soldiers, ported behind the arches of the a queducts and several breast works which had been hastily thrown op, annoyed him so severe ly, together with the trenches which he had to bridge over, that he did not arrive at the gates until late in the afternoon. Here he halted and .ttemnted to bombard the city, which he did du- ring the balance of the day and the day follow ing, doing immense damsge. In ome cases whole blocks were destroyed, and a great num ber of men. women and children killed and wounded. The picture was awful. One deafen ing roar filled our ears, one cloud of smoke met our eyes, now and then mixed with flame, and amid it all we could hear the various shrieks of the wounded and dying. But the city bravely resisted hundreds of flying shell. It burled back defiance to the blood thirsty Tankee, and convin ced him that his bombs could not reduce the Mexican capital. The enemy then changed hi plan, and deter mined to enter tbe city, where we were prepa red to meet bitn, having barricaded the afreets with sand bsgs, and provided on the house tops and at the windows all who could bear arms or missiles. tone, bricks, fcc, to throw on the heads of the enemy. Before General Scott had fairly passed the gales he found the difficulty of j hi position. A perfect torrent of balls and i stone rained upon his troops. Many were kil led and more wounded. Still he kept advancing until he gained the entrance of two streets lea ding direct to tbe Plaza. Finding that he could not oppose himself to our soidiers, who wer all posted out of sight, and that he was losing his men rapidly, Gen. Scott took possession of the convent of San Isidor, which extends back to the centre of a block, and at once et bis sappera and minera to cutting away directly through the blocks of buildings. In some instance whole bouses were blown dp to facilitate his progress; but after several hours he again emerged into the street, and finally gained tbe Plaza with great los. On entering the TIbia a heavy fire waa o pened on him from the Palace and Cathedral, which were filled and covered with our patrio tic trorp. Finding himself thu assaulted, the enemy drew out" hi forcer in the Plaza, and ri pened a cannonade on the Palace and Cathedral, firing over one hundred shots, which did iiu inenee damsge o the building, and caused a e vere loea of killed and wounded, S-'eing fur ther resietanco imelrfs, our aoldier ceased fi ring, and on the loth of September (sad day !) the enemy wae in po.?esaion of the Mexican capita!. Though we inflicted havoc end death upon the Yankee, we entfrrcd greatly our aiilvea. Many were killed by the blowing u, of the houses, many by the bombardment, but more by the confusion which prevailed in the city; and a.'.ogether we cannot count our kil led, wounded and iniinp, since the action com menced yeeterday, at lesa than 4000, among whom are many women and children.
