From PoINT IsABEL.--The following is a
letter from an officer Of the army, dated Point
Isabel, TO gentleman of this city:


"We had report yesterday, from Mexi-
can, who voluntarily came in here, that thou
sand Of the enemy were crossing the Rio
Grande, at a point about twenty miles from
here, with the view Of attacking this depot
We were on the alert all last night, but as yet
no enemy has appeared. Our defences here
are not yet finished, and we have but a hun
dred regulars and about three hundred volun-
teers to defend the place. Although our po-
sition is naturally very strong, think, myself,
that if we be attacked by thousand men, we
shall have TO fight very hard to maintain our
ground "-BaltimOre Patriot.
