magnificently illuminated, and a grand display
was made upon the receipt of the .captureso'
Vera Cruz. Charleston, and Columbia, South
Carolina, celebrated the victory with appropri
ate honors. The Students'ofthe South Caro
lina College, got'ip one:of the most' beautiful
spectacles on' the occasion. At 10 o'clock at
night, they firmed a procession two and two,
each man carrying a blazing flambeau, and
thus they marched through the streets in silence,
until at regular points or intervals, when the
command wab given, and they sent up a shout
for Scott, Taylor, &c., with, admirable effect.
The lights were between one and two hundred
in number, and were very beautiful. The
main street of Columbia was brilliantly illumi
nated, rockets were thrown up, bonfires were
kindled, and the cannon of the Arsenal poured
forth salutes. A general joy pervaded all
classes.
Rise of New Foundlan-.-The New Found.
land Times, states, that tlhe whole of the land
about the neighborhaod of Conception Bay,
very probably the whole island, is rising ont of
the ocean, at a rate, which at no distant day,
will render useless, or greatly injure, many of
the best harbors. Observation proves the rapid
displacement of the sea bed.
From our Cor:siontdenLt
BACK OF VEaA CRUz, 29th March, 1847.
Ar. Editor.-The siege of Vera .Cruz is. at
last, at an end, and this morning at 10 o'clock,
the garrison of the City and Castle march out,
and lay down their arms. In a few minutes
the banner of the Stars and Stripes, will float'
from the Castle of San Juan De' Ulloa, as well
as from the walls of one of the most strongly
fortified cities in the world.
I must do the Mexicans justice to any, that
with their scanty force, in tmen and supplies,
they have held out remarkably well. The num
ber of troops in tha.City and Castle.have been
variously estimated, at front four to five thou
sand men, with as good a supply of artillery
and ammunition as could have been furnished
to anv city in the world, but I have no doubt
that they were po ysupplied with provisions.
On the 9th ins e anchored off Point Sa
crifcios, with a force of about fourteen thousand
men,-and immediately commenced disembark
ing, preceeded by Gen. Worth's brigade. which
was formed in line of battle in suif boats. On
the same night Gen. Worth proceeded to invest
the city, and took a magazine. situated near a
rail. road, in front of the town, at about two
miles distant from the same, and also took the
ruins of an old castle, which is said to have
.fordierly belonged to the family of Malebrands.
On the 10th, one or two of our brigades met
with some opposition, and had some fighting,:
and. on the 11th, our brigade was 'sent-on to
tiheir relief, and the Palmetto Regiineut had
rather a'fierce engagement,' which continued
for abontanrhour, with a insofseven men in
wonned,,iieluding' nnr::LieutCol..Dicken',

City and.Castle huiva, indeed surretndered, and'

own troops. I hadthie pleasure yesterday, to~
see the enemy haul dowen his eolori, and to see
our own flag, waiving frorrievery fdrtified point,
both on the City of Vera Cruz, aid the Castle
of San'Juan-De Ulloa.
The terms of the surrender, as near as I can
iseertaini, are these.-The Mexican soldiefs
were to march omit, and surrender their arms,
ad be released nn the parole of their officers,
that they would fight no more in the p resent
war with the United States. The officers of
course, wvere pitt upon their parole of honor to
the same effect. All public property, with the
arms and ammunition havie been delivered into
our hands. I inderstand,. thlat we have receiv
ed about six thousand stand of small armnh, and
near two hundred piecis of artillery. I do not
know the quantity of amnmunition that has been
delivered over.
The number of killed and wounded on boftT
sides is very small. We hadl from fifteen to
twenty killed and wounded;~ and the enemy
near two hundred, and I amn sorry to le 'rn that
the greater number of tamose were women and
children and unarmed citizens of the town. It
was impossible for the result to hate been oth'
erwise, for our batteries could only be directed
gainst the city, anid we had no-:neans of as
certaining in what quarter the womten and
children, bad'fled for safety.
Our brigade, under Gen. Quitman, is under
orders to-day, to march against Alvarado, a
town aboti thirty miles sltant, and then to
return and follow the nlatin armly tn'nder Gen.
Scott. which will proceed immediately 'to Ja
lappa.
Our brigade will probably have a small fight
at Alvarado; but I thitik at Jalapa or Puebla
will be foughtthe great battle of the campaign.
The health of the army is tolerably good, but
the weather here is very unpleasant indeed,
and the water is scarce and disageeable.
When we get into the mountainous dbtintry,
we hope to fare like princes.
You will know how to make allowance for
my bad composition, for I have not even had a
chance to visit the city, and I anm evezy mo
memexpec.ting to march.
Mty health is good.
Yours, &c, SA LUDA.
LATER FROM THlEBRAZOS.
Fromt the N. 0. Picayune. AprL 11I.
The steamship Telegraph, Capt. Auld,
arrived yesterday from the Brazos, having
'sailed the evening of the 6th inst.
To Mr. J. Harrison, or Virginina, we
are indebted for papers and our correspon
dece,. Mr. Harrison went to Mexico with
Mr. Whiting, to bring back th- remains of
Lieut. Archibald Botts, who died in the
service some mouth since.
The rumors brought here by the Harry
Long, turn out to be unfotinded. Gen.
Taylor did not get up with. Urrea, and-of
course there was not action. Still there
was rumors to-that effect all-along the Rio
Grnde~ and one was compelled to note
them. Ge~n. Taylbr mad-e ample arrange
met., it would appoag, to keep open and
unmolested.the comuuitation between
Caniargo 'nd M onterey, and after that
pushed on 'to Sotiltllo
A train was to leave Camargo on tile

d.BATTLE. OF SACKAMENTd.
Defeat of tie Mexicans-Fall of thihiia
-We find room to-day for a c decountof
the battle of Sacramento;.fodght for the,
possession of tleCity of:Chihdahua. We
do not find Sacramento laid down on any
of the various maps we have of Northern
Mexico. We presume it cannot he -far
from Chihuahua, ,however. It- will bet
recollected that on the 23d. February. the
American troops were at Carmen,;movingd
South. Carmen is not much.:over::100
miles from Chihuahua'.: The battle.took:
place on the 28th March.: when we may
suppose the Americans had advanced .60
or 80 rr.iles further South. The number
of the Americans, according to the Mexi
ican report we gave on Tuesday lastwas
only 900. while the.Mexicans, by their.
own showing, had about 1600, and. ten.
pieces of artillery. . . .... .
We will only add further. that the des-.
patch of Gen. Heredia, who commanded.
the Mexicans, is given in El Republicano
of the 22d uIt., from thie. papers :in the.
War. Department "relating to the loss of
Chihuahua." The place whence written
is omitted. Garcia Cande's account .of
his participation in the battle we do not-.
find in any of the papers in our possession.
From the N. 0. Picayune.
VEaA CRUZ,.April 2, 1847.
We have not as yet heard from Alvara.
do, although there is no doubt the place is
by this time in quiet possession of the
American arms. This motning a detach
ment, composed in part of the 241. Dra
goons under. Col. Harney, started for An
tigua, an old town north of this, to take
possession, and from this point reconnois
sances will probably be made -tuwarls
Poente Nacional aud Jalapa.
From appearances, I do not, think that
Gen. Scott will march with the main army
into the interior for some (lays to come.
He is straitened to a degree for want of
transportation, and it would ,be but bad
policy to move' until every thing is in
readiness.. The latest movements-those
by way of Antigua and-Alvarado-will
have the effect of bringitg all the .horses,
mules and subsistence in on both sides the
main road to Mexico into the American
c.amp.
Among others who have arrived here
with the week, are twojor three'gentlemen
from Mazatlan. They say that both Up
per and Lower Californta are in peaceful
pudssessio'n of the A mericans. They say
nothing of the arrival of Gen. Kearney in;
California, but fie might' havenredche

lainranch of legialsture, and was buecessively
returned d such, until 1820, when he was
elected Shlieito- of the Southern Circuit. His
success in this election was a strone evidence
of his great popularity and infnence in the L.

State Senate. and was again retrrned in 1842.
During his last, term in the senate he became
listressingiafcliited with the dimness of vision.
which iidured him. from a sense ofdnty. to give
