Santa Anna?Again must we uppear
before our readers without having any positive
information as to the doings and whereabouts
of the enemy. Rumor, in the mean
; time, is rife with news, and we must, perforce,
set down to her account many things,
which, however much we believe them, we
J i - - -
aare noi give 10 me public as veritable.
One of the most important out-givings up to
this time, is, that Santa Anna, seconded by
La Vega ,and a force of near 12,000 strong,
has taken a position between this and Jalapa,
which is said by those familiar with the
country, to be very strong.
This report we find very generally believed
by many officers of the army, and by
the citizens of the place.
A Plot Discovered.?Some day last
week a number of Mexicans were discover
ed in the act of inciting the citizens of Tarnpico
to revolt and drive the Americans from
the place. We are not advised of the particulars,
but we learn that Col. Gates banished
them from the city, forbidding their
return under penalty of death.
The Castle.?The castle of San Juan
de Ulloa has undergone a thorough cleansing
throughout, making it approach much
nearer a place in which an American soldier
ought to reside. We are informed that
a more filthy place could scarcely be ima- j
1 _. .1, _ -i i
gmcu, ui iuu nine our iroops iook possession.
Gen. Patterson.?It gives us much pleasure
to be able to announce the recovery of
Maj. Gen. Patterson, or at least, so as to be
able to assume the command of his division
of the army. He left this city on Friday i
evening last, and would probably reach his 1
command the same night.
Execution.?The execution of the co- (
loured man, Kirk, a citizen of the United ,
States, convicted of committing a rape upon
the person of a Mexican woman, and theft, |,
took place on Saturday evening last. A t
large concourse of people were present, to i
wittness the first execution under Ameri- j
can authority, which has ever taken nlace !
since our occupstion of this country. It
will, no doubt, be a salutasy lesson to many
who would destroy the safeties gun ran tied '
to good citizens, were not such punishments 1
sometimes inflicted. 1
Breaking up of General Headquarters. '
?Yesturday evening at 5 o'clock. Gen.
, Scott and his staff left their quarters in the
Plaza, and started for Jalapa. They were
escorted by Col. Harney's 2d Dragoons,
and will probably be up with Gen. Twiggs
of the advance in two or three days.
Alvarabo.?The port of Alvarado,
which has been closed for several months,
is now open to our commerce, and to all
neutral vessels not having on board articles
contraband of war.
Worth's Brigade.?Maj. Gen. WTorth,
with the 1st brigade, will probably leave
Vera Cruz to day, following in the footsteps
of his illustrious predecessor. The governments
of the town and dependencies have
been turned over io oui. \v ilson of the 1st
infantry.
Tiie Hospital.?Many of our gallant
soldiers are now prostrated by diseaae. and
the hospitals are filled to over-flowing with
them. The disease most prevalent is diarrhoea,
which in many cases has proved fatal !
Expedition to Tuspan.?On Friday last, j
the sloops of war Germanton and albany, j
and two bomb vessels departed for Tuspan.
On Sunday, the Raritan, with one hundred
addtional marines from Potimac sailed for
the same place, and yesterday, Com. Perry,
with the flag ship Mississippi, and steamers
Spitfire and Vixen, having bomb vessels
in tow. The Peteril, Bonita and Elca followed
suit. The object of this expedition
is to take possession of Tuspan, which we
understand will be effected by landing the
sailors and mariners at a convenient point.
A discovery.?About two miles from
this village, on land known as the {,Keer
tract," there is an ancient Mound, circular
at the base which is surmounted by an
oaken btump prodadly origiually 2 feet in
diameter , which is almost totally decayed
from age. A few days since, some boys
dug into the mound, and nearly under the
stump, at the depth of three feet, a skeleton
was found, much decayed, but portions of
it in a fair degree of preservation. 'Near
the head were found two stone hatchets,
an arrow-head, a stone pipe, and far more
singular?a lot of plates, apparently isinggla8s,
which are covered with lines and hieroglyphics
of different and beautiful colors.
The colors and workmanship betoken a
more advanced and entirely different state
of the arts than has been heretofore discovered
in the remains of Indian tribes.
Some of the plates are destroyed, but there
are fifteen reserved. They are circular oval
in shape, and about 7 indhe by 10 in
size. A pipe bowl beautifully finished from
stone, was also found. The bowl which is
nearlv round, rises from a base on thp. bnt
to?n of which are the figures of "1461."
Measures are being taken, under th? supervision
of some of our faost intelligent citizens,
further to examine this singular
mound. There is little doubt but that these
plates contain the history of some former
race that has inhabited this country, and
We shall wait further discoveries with great
cariosity.?Lower Saryjiusky Democrat.

A Patriotic Father and Son.?A
day or two since, a gentleman from Wayne
county called on Capt. Wilder, at his rendesvouz,
tor the purpose of enlisting his son
in the company of volunteers now forming.
It seems that the young man was not Ms
own master, being little less than 20 years
, of age, but he was nevertheless determined
; ; v> *. . : ' . '
to go to tho war, in spite of all persuasions
of parents. Fearing, therefore, that he
might runaway and enlist, the father brought
him in and attended to it himself. After the
papers had been signed and the oath administered,
and the young man dressed in
his " blues," the father turned to him and
exclaimed, " If you ever disgrace your name
ill battle, I hope some of the company will
have the kindness to shoot you," and with
this paternal wish, the father turned upon
his heel and left the young volonteer with
his comrades. The parent is worth perhaps
$20,000.?Rochester Advertiser.
" A Brave Man," said the Danish creed of
honor, "should attack two?stand firm
against three, give ground a little to four; |
and only retreat for five. General Taylor i
has establish a new creed for Americans. ;
It is to attack four?stand firm against eight; ;
give not an inch of ground to a dozen?'
retreat under no circumstances!
i
i
Giving the Liic.?The great affront of
giving the lie arose from the phrase, {,thou
liest," in the oath taken by the defendant :
in judical combats belore engaging when
charged with any crime by the plaintiff, and |
Francis the First ol France to make current
his giving the lie to the emperor. Charles
the Fifth, first stamped it with infamy, by
saying in a solemn assembly that he was
no honest man who would bear the lie. i

Flocks of Pigeons.?The Niagara j
(Canada VVest)Mail of the 19th says: "A
tremendous iinmagration of pigeons from
the adjoining States took place 011 Sunday
last. They were crossing the Niagara j
from before nine in the morning until past !
one in the afternoon, and taking the speed
of flight at thirty miles an hour, the floclc ;

I
Public Celebration at Washington.
?The celebration at Washington, on Mon- i
[lay, the 19th inst., in honour of the recent ;
Lriumphs of the American arms, was quite ;
a brilliant affair. At noon a salute of one 1
hundred guns was fired, and a display made !
of the national colours from the Capitol, City
Hall, Navy Yard, and Arsenal, and from i
various other points in the city. In the eve- |
ning, the National Motel was handsomely J
illuminated, the windows in the front of the j
hotel, to the extent of four stories, bein g fil- |
led with lights.

Vice President Dallas, has written a letter
on the subject of the vast importance of

at from 10 to 25 millions of dollars, which
in ten years would be repaid by the profits,
if the canal be thrown open on liberal terms
to all nations.
Patriotism of Mr. Clay.?A gentleman
of this city has received a letter from Mr.
Clay' which concludes with the following
noble illusion to his recent affliction:?"My
life has been full of domestic affliction, but
this last is one of the severest amonirthem.
I derive some consolation from knowing
that he died where he would have chosen,
and where, if I must lose him, I should have
preferred?on the battle field, in the service
of his country."?N. Y. Express.

Said tract, contains SIX HUNDRED and FORTY-TWO

eighty acres of tolerably fresh land,and the balance

having a considerably crock, passing through it,

of Lowgrounds, which, with proper ditching,might
be made very vuluable. Tho woodland is so distributed,
as to make the plantation, susceptablc
