of the lit diviniorty he tana wounded, aliebtly, aqd
on the 13th, during the attack on Cbapultepee
and the city of Mexico, under the command of
Maj Gen. Pillow, of tbe 3d division, be received
another wtfund ' Lieut. 'Martin, we are proud to
aay, ia of thia place. On tbe firM indication of
hnttiUtie V'wi the VniVed Statea and Meiico,
be ihowetl hit willina iiein to yield hia aervicea
to the government, by uaiug every effort to raiae
a company for the purpose of going to Mexico.
Not being successful in this, he determined to go
himaell; and through the influence of friends, he
waa favored, with a Lieotenant'e rommission
in tbe Voltigeur Regiment. Hia noble conduct
tbua fnr fully meets tbe expectations of the ma
r.y warm friends he left behind ; and, if indomi
table energy and undaunted courage, as exhibited
by Lieut. Martrn, in marching to the scene of ac
tion after being once. wounded, ii a recommenda
tion to the Commander-in-Chief for promotion,
he, with the many other patriotic spirits who
spilt theii blootf in defence of their country's ho
nor, will be favorably considered by that officer.
Hia wounds, we sincerely hope,' will not prove
so serious as l diabla him from tbe further dis
charge of his duties'.' '' '
"Wntf'a 2itnt.it, one of the noblest end ore-
vest soldiers in tbe army, accompanied Lieut.
Martin from this place to the seat of war. ' His
name h not mentioned in the list of killed, woun
ded, and .tising. and we therefore conclude that
he came off" scott free. . He, no doubt, with his
Heicnleen strength, "let slip the dogs of war"
upon th Meiicana with aymd effect.
I Willi SuAE-rce, we are sorry to learn, re
ceiveil a severe wound in the engagement ol the
6th. Tbia noble hearted yourg mau, on lakinc
leave of his friends, told them "that he intended
representing Sunbury in Mexico." lie baa done
it nobly, and bas reflected botb honor upon bim
aelf and his place of nativity. . That he has be
h&ved with that characteristic bravery which die-
tinguithes Ameiican aoldiers from all others, we
feel confident..
Joh B. Taici. it is now ascertained to a cer
tjinty, ia dead He wan engaged in tbe seige of
V ra Cri;r, and. if we mistake not, in the bat
tle of Cerro Gordo. His friends expected much
from him, and, their fondest anticipations would
have been fully realised, had not the climate, and
tbe exposure to which he was subjected, under
of war.' ' It is Such as to make the pulse of every
American heart beat with becoming pride. The
force employed by the Ainericana in taking the
city of Mexico, with a population of nearly 200,
000 inhabitants, and atrongly fortified by an ar
my of . 20 or 30,000 men, Gen. Shielde says, did
not much exceed 6,000 soldiers. . The triumph
of our army, with such odds against it, must ex
cite (be admiration of our friends across the At
lantic. It ia an achievement .that will be refer
red to in after ages with pleasure. While the
shouts of victory, however, are going up through'
07 A Mexican Aeeovet On paper the
Mexican! have achieved wonders tinea the com
mencement of hen till ties tetweeti the two reur
ttiea. With all their reverses from tbe battlo of
Palo Alto op 1e) the taking o the Capital, accor
ding to tbe despa'che s of thsir leaders, tbey have
come out of every contest with additional honor.
We cartaUdyican have no objection to this, if it
selves aa a consolation to a poor infutuated and
deluded people who have met with defeat in all
their etrugglee. The following n tract from a
letter of a Mexican, giving an account of tbe en
trance of a portion of our army into tbe city,
and their ultimate end, may be read with inte-
teat, although it differs materially vith the true
facte of the case :
'On tbe afternoon of Tuesday a column of IS00
Americans proceeded to occupy the Palace, the
doorofvihiih waa opened by a cannon abot;
when they reached the Square, tbey planted the
American Sag in the centre, crying, Long Ltvt
tht Nfrth f Death to Mexico.' At this junc
ture, there appeared a tr.an on horseback, wbo
hat not yet been known, wbo answered them,
dit j'0rcif., ytu , thrusting his sword
through the body of tbe leader wbo commanded
the American column; wbert,' immediately, all
the people of the suburbs made their appearance,
armed with pistols," cane knives,' stones, Sir.,
and charged With such fury that there did not re
main one of the 1500 Americanat and tbe four
piecee they were bringing with them were ta
ken away by the populace. ' A courier was in
stantly sent to Santa Anna for bim to come to
their assistance; and it is said as a fact that the
Mexican army entered Mexico, end to this mo
ment we do not know tbe result."

lin t of our army, on its entiance into the city of
Meaicn isspokrnof in very flatterng terms by
some of the resident foreigners there. A French
man, writing to a friend at Vera Crux, remarks
that "all the foreigners, including those imbued
in other respects with prejudice against the A
mericans, ogre in the one point, that the A
meriean army haa not done one hundredth part
of the iejuiy it dad a right to do, and which Eu
ropean armies would have done ia similar cil
eumstances " . i
C7"Thb Rani and Filx "Mustang,'' the
able correspondent of the New Oilcans Delta
thus speaks of the ooble besriug of the rank and
fie of the American army, during ita operations
before the city of Mexico. Tbe thankt of a
giateful people will not be withheld from sol
diets so "good and true":
-During the operations of the army before the
city, we have had cause to notice with especial
pride tbe conduct of tbe rank and file of tbe army.
Innumerable have been the ina'.aacea of gallant
bearing and o4ty valor, of patriotic impulses and

Tati-or Mbitimo m Onto A popular meet
ing in Portsmouth, O., on the 2d instant, nomi
nated tteneral Taylor for the Presidency. The
nomination was made onanimously and with en
thusiasm. Tbe Portsmouth Clipper seys :
The meeting wss unusually large, and comio-
aed of citizens without distinction ot party- The
proceedings were transacted with great unanimi
ty, and tbe people aeemed cheerfully disposed to
reward the soldier of three wars, and the victor
of some of the hardest fought battles recorded on
the pages of history, with the highest honors in
their gift. Tbia ia as it should be; mankind
ought to reward their nenefartors. He who has
staked his life in the hour of dsnger, in the da-
fence of bis country's honor, ought to receive the
highest rewaidsof thst country. Tbe election of
General Zachary Taylor to tbe next Presidency
will not only give assurance that the people ere
still wermly attached to their country, and love
its defenders, hut it disproves the assertion too
frequently made by the enemies of free govern
meuts, that "Republics are always ungrateful."

Oi leant, Malirnoras dates to the C9tb ult. have
been received. The "Flag" of the 2nd inst ,
ays that a letter baa been received by the com
mandant at Matamoros from Gen. Taylor, in
which be announces that be will leave Monterey
for Matamoras about the 1st of November, and
make the latter city bis head quarters. Several
cases of yellow fever are reported in the city.
There were rumors that Gen. Urrea was a
bout'lo make a descent upon tbe lower Rio
Grande by the way of Victoria, at the head of
12.000. This nnmber is doubtless an exaggera
tion, hut that tbe whole line of the Rio Grande
ia very inadequately guarded, we have not a
doubt. Reinforcements must be sent there.

number as many as tbose in the field.

ington Union, urges that it sijould use its influ
ence to get Congress to enact a stringent law a
gainst the maltreatment of wagoners and soldiers
in the army. Flogging, clubbing and gagging
are practised by some of them. This treatment
for the men wbo heve won Cburubusco, Confre

into euch aa abose and provide an effectual re

"For breakfast he has nothing at all to eat but

ia impossible for bim to get any thing but fresh
