Nothing very important.


We have advices from Vera Cruz TO the 9th,
and from Brazos TO the 18th instant.


The train under COL Mcintosh was attacked
by 800 Mexicans, % miles from Vera Cruz.
The assailants were quickly dispersed, bu,
they rallied again, and got large number Of
pack mules in the second attack. After a
severe conflict, the Colonel entrenched himself
behind his wagons, and despatched courier
TO Vera Cruz for reiniorcements. On the 7th
instant General Cadwalader marched to his
assistance, with full 700 men. Nothing further
from the scene of action. The Mexicans were
led by Spanish priest. DR.. Harnsy, the
brother of the Colonel, received wound in
the action, and it is believed that some thirty
of our men were killed and wounded.
The horse thieves among the Mexicans were
SO bold as 10 carry on their depredations even
up 10 the walls Of Vera Cruz.


The garrison Of Vera Cruz was reduced to
forty men on the 9TH instant


The vomito continued its ravages.


A Spanish paper is published in Vera Cruz,
which calls on the Mexicans TO make the in
vaders feel the strength Of their arm, and the
spirit Of vengeance. Why does Col. Wilson
allow this, in a place where everything is
under martial law2


The measles have broken out among our
troops at the Brazos. General Taylor's new
levies are gradually moving forward TO head
quarters.
And this is all that our Reindeer Sunny
brought us this time We think Sammy could
have spared himself the labor. However, he
deserves credit for his desire to astonish the
natives.
