have borrowed the copies of the FL Repub-
hcano for an hour. They are dated at the city
of Mexico, April 2l and %, and the latter gives
full account of the battle of Cerro Gordo.


The Mexican particulars of the combat, as
usual, are peculiarly rich.


They say Santa Anna sustained the fight with
5000 men against $4,000, and fought valiantly
to the very last, When finally, he found HIM
self entirely surrounded by enemies, ne FORCED
A PASSAGE through ''los Yankees with a col
umn of the 4th Regiment of Infantry of the
line! The fact, as every one knows, is that
Santa Anna left early-all the cutting which
he did was to cut the saddle mule from his
coach, and then cut and run.


The Mexicans admit that they had two gem
erals killed, but gave no name save that of Vas
quez. Coils. Cosio and Calatayud are also nam
ed as among the killed. Gen. Scott's loss, on
the II and 18th, is put down at over 1000,
while the loss of the Mexicans is admitted TO
be 1000 men in killed and wounded. They
say that the Americans fought like hordes OF
savages, killing all that presented themselves,
whether wagoners, old men or women.


Gen. Canalizo is openly accused of bad con-
duct at CerrO Gordo. They say that when he
should have made charge, which would have
been decisive, he withdrew with his cavalry
in plain terms that he ran.


Gen. Salas, who was President ad interim
before the the arrival of Santa Anna has isued
a proclamation announcing that he is empow-
cred to raise guerilla corps, and calls upon all
good Mexicans to Join his standard, In his
concluding sentence he says that ''war to death
without pity, shall be the device of the gueril-
la warfare of vengeance"
