Santa Anna I has sent a .letter to Congress from Orizaba. He gives! his Own account of the battle of CerrwGordo, and claims a great victory on the first dny of the fight. On the second day Providence, - according to his story, gave the advantage to the Yankees. He says nothing about the exertions- of the latter. Santa Anna states that he now has seven thousand men, and that his force is rapidly increasing ; and moreover that all are burning to encounter the Americans again. He wants money to carry on his operations, but Congress has not seen fit to vote him a copper—one reason, probably, that it has not a copper to give: Santa An na, so,lar as I can learn, is the only man who has been spoken!of as a candidate for the Presidepcy, and he is in very bad odor with he mass.

WEST BATON. ROUGE, L., May 15th, 1847 WM. L. HODGE, Eso—Dear Sir: I send you, annexed, an extract of a letter, which I have recently received from Gen. Taylor ; and as it shadows forth the feelings and views of the General, on the subject of the next Presidency, in a manner - which can do no violence to the feelings of any one, I have determined to have published that por• tion of it which rAlates to a subject in•which his name has been very generally asslociated throughout the country for some time. past. Edo so, with more .readiness, because it is calculated to give a prOper insight into the real character of this eminent man.— Please let it have a place in your columns: Yours, very sincerely and respectfully. " In regard to the Presidency, I will not say that I would not serve, ifThe good peo ple of the country were to require nip to do so, however much it is opposed to my wish es, for I am free to say, that I have no as pirations for the situation. My greatest, perhaps, only wish, is to bring, or i aid in bringing this war to a speedy and honora ble close. It has ever been, and still is, my anxious wish, that some one of the most ex perienced, talented and vigorouS statesmen of the country, Should be chosen to that high place at the next election. I am satisfied that; if our friends will do their duty, such a citizen may be elected. • "II must, however, be allowed to sey, that I have not the vanity to consider myself qualified for so high and responsible a ._sta tion, and whilst. we have far more eminent and i deserving names before the country, I shodld prefer to stand aside, if one of them could be raised to the first office in the gift of a free people. " I go for the country, the whole couniry —and it is my ardent and sincere Ivislt to see the individual placed at the head of the nation, who, by a strict observance of the constitution, (be he whom he_ may,) can make us most prosperous at home, as well as most respected abroad." Later from Vera Cruz Illinois Volunteers arrived at N. Orleans— Guerilla Attack upon Dragoon EAcamp ment—Seven Killed and Three Wounded -Captain Walker in Pursuit of Ma rauders—The Vomito. An arrival at New Orleans brings one day later inteligence from Vera Cruz. ; Seven , etimpanies of the Third Illinois- regiment have reached New Orleans by this arrival. There are no further accounts from 'the army advancing on the Capital. The Picayune gathers a few items of in terest from Major Count de Bongars, aid to Gen.,Sheilds, who has arrived at New Or leans. He brings the information that on the night the vessel sailed from Vera ,Cruz, "a small party of American dragoons were, surprised ut Santa Fe, a small village, four teen miles from Vera Cruz, by a band of 31exican robbers or guerillas. There were eleven dragoons in the party, and all asleep but the sentinel. The Mexicans rushed upon him, when his piece missed fire and was unable to give the alarm . . A scuffle, ensued in which the sentinel was killed. The guer illas then dashed upon the rest of the party, by this time issuing from their tent, sir of whom were killed and three wounded ; only one escaping unhurt. As soon as the news of this affair ireached. Vera Cruz, Captain Walker, with his rifles, were ordered in pursuit of the marapders.- The apprehended attack upon Vera Cruz, by Santa Anna, has been entirely dispelled. An occasional case of the vomtio was occur ,ring but there was no increase of the dis ease. Splendid Naval Vietory'4 We have received intelligence by the ar riVal of the Caledonia, of one of der most splendid naval victories .ever acheivad under . the American flag. The accounts say that the U. S. Sloop -of- War Jamestown, Commodore Forbes, on the 12th of April, made a gallant attack on the city of cork, in Ireland, which resnited in the unconditional surrender of the place to our brave tars. The passage of the James tosin we, so short fr this country; the city l eame nigh being taken by sut'prise.— We learn that, the appearance before the city caused great excitement among the for ces of the enemy and that "Rear Admiral Sir H. Pigott despatched an officer to see if any, immediate assistance was required." The alarm was rung by the " bells cif Shan non.," And of the "Cathedral," arid a "re quisition was promptly prepared, calling on the mayor to ISUMIXIO4 a meeting of the citi zens- to devise measures for the attack." It was subsequently agreed to attempt to carry the ship by boarding, " and a deputation of the gentry of Cork," was detailed for, that purpose. • The attack upon the city is said to have been one of the most brilliant exploits in the Motor" , of ineratime , Wer. ' Every shot from the ship-appeared to f ten upon . the city and guto the very hearts of the enemy. Never was a naval battery better . tierved than' on this I occasion.

When I' 'reflect` aptia this subject, I am asttinishedr how tame aria sib rnissive the enlightettett, pemor.. racy4l4 western part of Susquebinna have been,— With what forbearatiii year after year have -1 they placed themselvei !tithe service of oth ers. With what promptness in every con test they have !met th'eir, political foe ;,., and with what overwhelming success theyi have cleared the Democratic track, the pink con-A, elusively shows. For all this, and much more than I have time to write,) what .share has the western part of our county hartin all the victbries and glories in which her demberaticcitizens have So largely cOntrib ,- , wed to ach i eve. 7 This county has been organized abinit 35- years. If 1 mistake not the county his now in her service the 12th Sherift:Lthe west having bad but one, Of the 35 years ser vices in the State Legislature, the west haw had, I think, only Jabez Hyde, I; Dr Leer, 1; Lewis Brush, 2; (the. latter can not properly be classed , a western man, but we are willing and evetthmikful for the op- • portunity of placing his services in our Cr.. list with the party, for really it is a lonesome looking page.)

No man supposes any such thing. Then the tlattie is, chargeable upon thpe Who act upon the principrelof might tifakaig . right, and thu:s from soine l selfish or,unjust Motives have continuallY cast their in fluence against the .:west; I(litt I opine the d'ay has come that' • proscriptive' polity will' Meet the condemnation it deserves; the west ern Democrats begin to think forbearance no longer a virtue.) In regard to Prothon-, otary, one of the most lucrative offices, the • west has not had A single hour. The same is the case with regard to Register,& Recor der, another important and lucrative, office. Since the organization of the county there I ave been 70 years; services in these two of ; ces, end a rich salar'f, of which the west ' lies had no part or lot, except the toil pf d l lecting them, •and contributing our share toward swelling the rich bounty. !.. Three county Commissioners enth year I ave held their stations 35 years, making 05 peers services for the county ; the west have rendered about 18 years, being 18 to 87.
