FROM TUE NEW ORLEANS PIcATUSE OF SEPTEMBER


The United States steamship Mary Kingsland
arrived at early hour this morning. By her we
have received our letters from Mr.. Kendall from
the 22d TO the 2Sh of August, all dated from Tacu-
baya. courier dispatched by him on the goth
with the first account of the battle fought on that
day was cut of.


From map and plan Of the battle-felds before
us we note that they are called the battles of Cou-
treras and Churubusco-so called from field-works
Of the enemy Of those names. The victories were
decisive, but, as far Judge from a hasty
perusal OF portion Of letters, the proposition
for an armistice was made by Gen. Scott-proba-
bly at the suggestion OF the British embassy.


Should peace not follow from the negotiations
now pending, another battle must ensue, the enemy
having a force OF from fifteen to twenty thousand
men yet left. But the road appears TO be complete
" open to US, and the city is only two and half
miles from our encampment


Our victories have been purchased at a vast loss
of valuable life as will be seen by the following
list. We see names of men at the loss of whom
we weep; but all have their friends, and we make
no distinctions.

Our entire loss in killed and wounded is short D
eleven hundred; that Of the enemy is not wei
known His loss in killed alone is believed to be
fully equal to our entire loss, and il is estimated tha
at least 5000 prisoners were taken. The number
of his wounded was not ascerained, but is supposed
10 be very large. Gen. Scott himself received a
wound in the leg below the knee, but we are led to
hope f1e injury slight one.
