The advices from the invading army, which we publish in another column and the position andman- ner in which our forces are known to be disposed, are well calculated to create anxiety if not a0pre- henslon SANTA ANNA appears to be moving with a bodness and tact that were hardly expected and If he have nearly the force that is reported, he is abundantly able to make descent on one or the other of the detached posts held by our troops, and by superiority of numbers cutting 1t to pieces Gen.

 WoRTH's command at Saltillo though not 90 far from succor as the division under Gen. Wool is the point directly threatened, the destruction of that

 would involve also the destruction of Gen. Wool

Worth at Saltillo but there is road marked on the maps. from Zacatecas 10 Saltlo di- rect, which is probably the road preferred by the Mexican chief, and should he succeed in re,chng Saltlo before General Worth could be wei rein forced, it is possible the place may have to be eacua ted as no force ofconsequence could be spared from the garrison at Monterey. The brigades of Generals Quitman and Briggs left Monterey for Victoria on the 18th, and, therefore, had been four days on
