It is true the climate of Vera Cruz is no better, but we are now luckily loeated in a high healthy bracing atmosphere, with the prospect of active employment ahead. The only pretence of an hour delay at Hamburg was, that the knapsacks and other camp and .garrison equipage due from the Governmen of the United States had not arrived -Through the kindness ofGov.

Twiggs having arrived at that placefirst, he changed his design,' antd stopped at the Cerro Gordo, the stroligest pass in the mountains between Vera Cruz and Jalupa, and probably the stronest between the Gulph aid the city of Mexic. itself. He fortified that terrible place with every means in his power, and strengthend his works with about forty pieces of artillery. The position of the en emy, on the approach of our army, as near as I can ascettaln, was as follows: On the left of the main road is a ridge of riountain bluffs, or rather a succession of ridges of mountain bluffs. On three of these bluffs, which arose at about the dis tance of two or three hundred yards from each other, were erected heavy batteries, with slight fortifications of brush and sticks and stones. Just opposite the third hill or bluff', and in a position commanding the road for a great distance, was another very stroig battery, commanded by the famous Gen. La Vega. Exactly at the point at which La Vega's battery was planted, the road makes a right angle, and on the second line of the angle, on the right of the road, at the distance of about one hundred and fifty yards, was another very high hill, commanding all the others, and mounted with several heavy pieces of cannot,. This place was considered the bulwark of the enemy, and was defended by the flower of the Mexican army. Be sides this, all the intermediate and adjacent hills, on the right and left, from the first on the left, were lined with infantry, sharp shooters, and all sorts of soldiers. Nothing could have been more admirably planned than the dispositions of Santa Anna, and if they had been defended with the skill and ability with which they were laid out, they would certainly have insured a com plete victory to the Mexican arms. On the 17th Gen. Twiggs, with consid erable loss, carried all the hills and elevat ed positions on the right, of the road, and on the morning of the 18th, had worked his way round through the gorges of the monn tains, and commenced an attack, with the rifle reginent, the 3J and 7th infantry, and a part of the 1st artillery, I believe, on the main "sugar loaf," the highest mountain spur on the right, which corn manded all the other strong holds of the enemy. The Tennesseans, under Col. Haskell, in the meantime, had made an unsuccess ful attack on the second hill on the left of the road. The poor fellows suffered much, and fought like heroes, but from some mis take in sending them succor, they were obliged to fall back, after having lost half their number. There were actually three batteries of cannon, and about eighteen hundred muskets, playing upon that sn'rall force of little over two hundred and fifty men, at one time. Yet, they were pre paring to make a second assault, when the colors of the enemy were struck, and a whiteflag was run up. Gen. Twiggs had-succeeded in carrying the main hope of the enemy, and the battle was ended, except the, retreat and pursuit. I presume. that no charge recorded in ~history. has surpassed that of Col. Harney, who led the 3d and 7th infantry, the rifles and 1st artillery on the ,18th. It is said, .thatstheymarched up the tnountainia the face of:grape and inusketry,; aid' ir'ple 'men 'of. death ofieery''descripiiin, as '-oo an d orderly as if- on dress parade. Whetn they had arrived about midway the mountain, Col. Harney ordered them to halt and rest. A fter a moment's pause, he said to'them, "noow tmy boys. one do liberate fire, and then give them cold steel.'' They fired deliberately, and irt atn instant were in the fort on the summ(fit of the hill, and the battle was won. The fight on the 17th, was conducted principally by col. H arney and col. Childs, with the. rifles and 1st artilery, and on'e company of the infantry, ill under the tmn mtediate ttpertntendence of Gen.- Twiggs. The battle of the 17th was equally as im lportant in its results as that of the 18th, because-.it opened the way for the brilliant movement ont the :8th, that itnsured the victory. The records of no b'attle, exhibit incidents of noble daring, than those of the rifles and 1st artillery otn the 17th. They litterally forced their way through thousands of the enetmy, and lay all night on the ground they had won. T1he rifles suffered extremely, butt never flinched for a moment. What adds to the glory of the battle of Cerro Gordo, is, that there was not a single instance of cowardice ex hibited throughout the who le fight. SA L UDA. Later froin Santa Fe and California. We learn from. .the St. Louis Republi cat that Lient. WV. G. Peck, of the U. S. Tropographical Corps, arrivedl at that city from Santta Fe on the 16:h inst. Hie fuinishes intelligence of some interest, Col. Price was still at Satnta Fe; and quiet and order, generally there. Lieut. Peck on his way f'romn Satnta Fe was j'ointed by Mr. ML:Kiuightt, from Chihuahua; Lieut. Tlheodure' Talbot, who wetnt out with Co'l.~Fremmnt; Lieu,, E. JBeal, of the U. S. N,; C.'1oplinu, U. S. A:; Christo pher Carson, Robert. Russell and others from California. From these gentlemen it was learned tk~at the C'ourt of T'aos had condemned a number of the insturgents'to be hung, andl that eleven had been execule'd; and a large number whipped.

In the secondl attacki-thoy had a fight of some dturation, in which one matn,natned Williams, was severely, but not m'ortally wounded, by a spear' or lance,- in the body. Several' others had their-clothing cu.t by the' balls fited by the Indians. Akniusket ball struck' the pistol of Lieut. Peckotn the lokk; and name as plain as it could have been mad upon it. They believe 'that they kil[e one of the Indians, and prubably wounde more, but they were all carried off. The killed some of the Indians' horses. Th night they were joined by the gentleme above mentioned, and supplied with fres animals. At the hend of the Arkansas, a party t Pawnee lndi toin tde an attack upon their camp, and attempted to excite stampede among the horses, but did n< succeed. They, however, stole two hot see. They fired a good many arrows int camp, but vithout ellect. The question of right to act as Govern of the territory, was still in dispute betwee Gen. Kearney and Con. Stockton, I was understood that Gen. Kearney inter ded setting out on his return about the L of July, but the state of affairs, it was su: posed, might delay his departure. Lieut. Col. Fremont was at Cindal d Angelos; acting as Governor of the Terri tory, under an appointment from Con Stockton. The Commodore had returne on board his ship, and had left that part < the coast. Col. Vm. H. Russell, c Calloway county, in this State, was actin as Secretary of the Territory. Com Shubrick had joinei Gen. Kearney a Monterey. We regret to learn that sickness amt' death have had so many victims at Sant Fe. A visitor to the grave-yard ther counted upwards of three hundred graves made duriig the past fall and 'winter Sickness was still very prevalent.

The news they furnish is ofiuterest The Monterey P'oneer of the 2nd inst reports that Messrs. W. Train and Morri were attacked on the road by five. Mexi can rutlians. Mr. Morris was woundei in the leg so badly that amputation becam necessary. Mr. Train was uninjured The two succeeded in keeping the Mexi cans at bay. until assista.ce arrived. Th intelligence of the battle had been fough at the national Bridge, in which General Scott and Santa Anna were- killed, at that the Mexicans, upon hearing of th fall of their leader, abandoned their posi tions, leaving the Americ.an forces in pos session of the field, The weather at Mon terey was intensely hot. Col. Marshall' regiment of Kentucky Cavalry were il Camargo on their way home. The mea sles had broken out at Saltillo. Conside rable apprehensions were entertained fu the safety of Col. Doniphan's command (which is reported started from Chihuahu on the 1st di April for Saltillo,) as varinou rurriors were in circulation to the effec that the command had been attacked at pass catled Sierra Gordon. about half-wa: between Saltillo and Chihuahua, by i Mexican force from Durango under Gen Riez-and that Col.
