Through the courtesy of a gentleman who arrived on Monday evening, from Tampico, we were placed in possession of -El Soldado de Ia Patria," dated 27th February, at St. Louis Potosi. The pa per opens with a sounding editorial, hea ded as follows: "Viva la Republica ! .Viva el Illustre Santa Anna!" The article is devoted to the praise of Gen. Santa Ann. and forms the introduction to the official despatch from him, and to several letters from officers of his army. We have al ready given a translation of this:despatch. It was addressed to Ramon Adame, Go vernor ofthe State of San Louis Potosi. :The editor remarks that other letters have been releved by private citizens of San Luis, written from Agua Nueva. on the .;24th Fetruary. These letters say,that " ,,two commissioners had arrived there from -GenTaylor, demanding t!ieir surrender, 1t1ihat Santa: Anna exhibited to - them the #-,state of his army, showing. them the e thusiasm & decision that prevailed among thejroops:wo had -falled'. back to that, ioony fr this purpose of -obtaining ei gae them ighis definite that unless fliejsiurrendered :at dis adifflie holbre a c a ied the EEiett 'Santa nun's, des .patc ud c4ong tu aian the people upon * .herctoryof i.ichi, in the most emphatic Sangua'geall the glory is attributed to San , Next follows a private letter dated "the - eneiny cadsp' 5 P'.

La Vaca. It expresses great fears lest the army should disband that night on account of their deprivations. ~The same lette: says that Santa Anna had a horse killed by a grape shot. A postcript to the letter says: "After closing my letter, the general-in-chief, - convinced doubtless that the army would .disband unless it -obtained food and water ordered it to move to Agua Ntueva-where = there are cattle and water-water before everything." The postcript adds that they have losti -about a thousan:t men, many general of-| ficers killed and wou ndedi, and among the latter Gen. Lomnbardini.

I have no intelligence from the interior more recent or authentic then that hereto-. fore communicated. There is understood to be no considerable force in our front, nor is it likely that any serious demonstra tion will be made, in this direction. The frequent alarms since the middle of De cemberseem to have been without substan tial foundation. I am happy to add that the population of Saltillo is last returning to the city. Under the judicious manage ment of Major Warren, a disereet officer of Illinois volunteers, who commands in the town, it ik hoped that the people may remain quietly in their homes.

Sir-Since my last despatch of Febru ary 7th, the occupation of this position has been completed by the arrival of the Brig. Wool with the remaining corps left in rear. The troops are now conveniently encam ped, and can readily take up excellent de fensive positions when necessary. Every thing is quiet in land about Saltillo. I am urging supplies forward as rapidly as practicable from~the rear, and from the direction of Partas; for, if joined by a suf ficient force of the new regiments, I wish to be able to take advantage of any op portunity that may offer to create a diver sion in favor of Major General Scott's op rations. Of those new regiments,-none have yet been reported to me, nor doi know how many I may calculate upon for service in this quarter. I can communicate no - very recent in. telligence from the interior. Up to the 26th of January, the Mexican Congress had done nothing to supply the wants of the army, which had received nothing-for January and..but.half the necessary funds forDecember. ..

It was then stated that Paredes was in favor of a monarchy, and Santa Anna opposed to one; and it was as much on this account as ainy other, that Paredes became appa rently unpopular- After this Paredes the head of the monarchist party, was ban ished, and Santa Anna returned to power. From information that we have recently obtained from Havana, and from the fact that the military force stationed at place is unusually large-so large as to attract the notice of the Habaueros-and that there was a large number of French naval vessels, there, we are inclined to place some reliance on the rumor that France, England and Spain. have really some de sign on Mexico, and contemplate estab lishing a monarchy there. We publish the following letter received from our special correspondent in Havana which throws additional light on the sub jt. H AVANA, March 2, 1847. You requested .me, in. some of your letters, to communicate what news I might have relative to Mexico. * * * It is said, among the rmost respectable circles in this -city, that the King of France advised the f ant Don Enrique to ask the pardon of the Queen Isabella, by the fa mous protest lie -made when he was banished from Spain; and that Queen. Isabella would help himn to conquer Mex ico, in order to establish -a monarchy there of which the Infante would- be king Don Enrique, as a good lion vivant, accepted the proposal, off'ering to take for his wife a French Princess, of Louis Philippe's family. Both parties having agreed, the. Infante wrote to Queen Isabella, .from Paris, a very interesting letter, asking for her pardon, whiich was immediately gran ted. This letter has been published in ll the Spanish papers. '. . After this the infante started for Mad rid, where he was nominated, on. his arri vl, as Befe de. Eucuadra, and went to see the English Ambassador, to whom he spoke about the affair..

In the last-battle, as in the .former, we understand-that the detertin istion of the General was not seconded by the'oficers next in command; and that but for the wise and determined courage of their chief, there had been two less vic tories won'by the gallantry of the Ameri can troops. Had not the battle of Resaca been fought. Fort Brown had fallen into the'hands of the enemy, and had Gen. Taylor retired upun Monterey,'the Mexi cans would have recovered a portion of the country, wrested from them, and threaten ed the valley of the Rio Grande with re capture. - The results would have been of incalculable mischief to the country, as well as in the loss ofthemnrale ofthe troops as in the relinquishment of the fruits of an expensive campaign. These have all been saved, and the immense military prepar ations of Santa Anna have melted awa; before, the skill of one American General and the prowess of his small but devoted army. As we have before stated, the fighting on the 22d of February-an unfortunate day upon which to attack an American army-was confined principally to can nonnading and skirtpiphing with light troops. The bloody business was done on the 23d, which was opened by an at tack from our side under the direction of Gen. Wool. A portion of the advance was hshaken by overwhelming nnmbers, but was supported by Gen. Taylor, who brought forward the reserve and decided the day by a resistless charge. What is here said in a few words recived a day to consummates and a ricital of the incidents and manouvres which ended so trium phatly would demand many columns for space. An eye witness-one who was near General Taylor's person all the time with the exception of those intervals during which he was carrying his orders over the field-informs us that not a man, with the exception above noticed, of the American lines wavered for an instant whilst facing the most galling fire, and receiving the repeated charges of the enemy. which it is but candor to say, were conducted with spirit and address. As- an instance of the desparation with which both armies fought, Mr. Crittenden, who acted. as General Taylor's aid throughout the fight. whei asked whether the Mexicans had taken three pieces of ordnance from us. as Santa.Anna reported replied in the affirmative, and said that guns were not given up till every man at them was 'shot down, and every horse 'killed near them; an.1 moreover,' than in bearing them ol,-the Mexicans suffered a losos'olme six hundred men.

Taylor had sent Santa Auna na flag of truce during the action. It ocurred'tha: a body of Mexican infantry, abdotta thousand strong, had become de tached from Santa Anna's army, and were being mowved dowan with terrible slaughter. Gen. Taylor sent Mr. Crittenden with a flag to say to them that if they would sur render he would stop killing them. When Mr. Crittenden got amongst them, he was taken by them to Santa Anna with his eyes blindfolded. This lie remonstrated against withcut the effect. When he was brought to Santa Anna he was asked his mission. He told him he had no message for him; that he was sent to ask a detached force to surrender to save the effusion of blood, and as his errand was unsuccessful he demanded to be sent back to his general. It was then that Santa Anna requested him to tell General Taylor that if he would surrender he would be protected and well cared for. Mr. Crittenden replied. that he had no commission to 'speak with him (Santa Anna) upon that or any other matter, but it wan no use to send any stuch message as Gen. Taylor nteer burrenderd'. . Frost the N. 0. Ddta, Extra, Mardi 28th. LATER FROM VERA CRUZ. By the arrival of the revenue cutter Ewing at an early hour this morning we are in receipt of four days lat er intelligence from Vera Cruz. The Ewing sailed on the 17th. Through the polite attention of 1st Lieut. Chaddock, of the Ewing, we are indebted -for the prompt delivery of our. cor'respondence. The news of Gen. Taylor's great victory was received on the, morning of the 16th, and, of course caused great rejoicing in our army-more especially as unfavorable rumors from the same quarter had reached them on the day previous.-Many a shout went up for Gen. Taylor and the brave men uder his command. .Owing io the rough weather, but a por -tion of the heavy artillery intended for the attack hod' been landed previous to the sailing; of the E wing. Getn. Scott gave the foreign residents notice to leave the town. They are gen erally on board of the foreign vessels of war oif that- port. 'Many of the citizens of Vera Crux, seeing the inevitable reduction of the place are in favor of an early capitulation. The military, however, violently oppose any pnovenent of that kind, and it is reported by :e foreign residents that several citi -es have .been shot for proposing a sur render, although few doubt that our troops will carry the place in a short time.

The steamships New Orleans and Vir ginian left Vera Cruz on the 16th for Tampico. The steamship-Mississippi, Com. Perry, had notarrived at the sailing of the Ewing. The Ewing brings despatches from Gen. Scott. LATEST FROM THE BRAZOS. The U. . steamship Telegraph, Cap tain Auld, from Brazos Santiago, 23d instant, arrived early on Sunday morning. She brings no later news of interest from the army under Gen. Taylor. We are indebted to Capt. A. for Matomoros pa pers. No positive intelligence has been re ceived from Gen. Taylor's camp since the 2d of March, but from the best information obtained, it appears that Santa Anna had returned to Metehula, where he was en deavoring to collect his scattering lbrces. As the Telegraph was casting off from the landing at Brazos Island, an officer arrived from Matamoros, who stated that information had been received of Gen. Taylor's arrival at Cerralvo" with one thousand horse, in pursuit of Gen. Urrea, and the latter, hearing of Gen. Taylor's approach, bad fled in the direction of Vic toria, and that the communication between Camargo and Monterey was now re-es tablished. The Massachusetts Regiment was or dered by Gen. Taylor to garrison Mata moros. The ship remittance arrived ed the Brezos on the 23d, with four compa nies of the Massachusetts Regiment on board and two orher vessels with the remainder of the North Carelina Regiment -all of whom were being' disembarised on the morning of the 24th.
