this statement is weJl jknown, lor any
quanfy of ammunition was found at Mon
terey after the capitulation. :
From the New Orleans Delta, Oct. 30.
We conversed with some of the officers
who arrived last evening from Galvfston
in the steamship Palmetto. They are from
Monterey, and bring information from
thence to the 12th inst. -The following is
a summary of what we have gleaned from
.them: j
. There are various reports floating about
the camp at Monterey respecting the.
movements of the Mexican army, but no
thing authentic or definite.
The following is the disposition of the
army at Monterey : Geni Worth's division,
with which is Blanehard's company of
Louisiana volunteeers, attached to the 7th
regiment; garrisons the city. The 1st, 3d,
and 4th regiments, and the brigade of ar
tillery, with General Taylor's staff, are
encamped about four miles north of the
city. The Kentucky, Tennessee, & Geor
giar volunteers are encamped a mile still
further north of the city. N
But few of the citizens remained in Mon
terey alter its evacuation by the Mexi
cans, and but few ot thoise who left have j
yet returned. . : 1
The prevalent opinion in camp Vas that
there would be no more lighting; for Am
pudia actually had assured the deputation
who arranged the terms of the armistice
with him, that the commissioners from the
United States to treat of peace were, re
ceived by the Mexican government. They
are, however, of this long before now dis
abused, for our fJamafgo correspondent
says that the bearer of despatches from
Washington to Gen. Taylor has passed
that l'ost. i
The number of our men killed and
Wounded, so far as is ascertained, is 571,
Many of the wounded were dying. Wher
ever a bone "was touched, it was found
difficult io effect a recovery of the patient.
The number of killed and wounded on the
side of the Mexicans k believed to.be a
bout 1,200. Several incidents of inter
est were related to us which we have not
time to note now. There was no hand to
hand fighting. The volunteers, when in
side thejeity, exposed themselves as little
as possible in the streets. They would
enter a house at the extreme end of a
street and fight their Way from house to
house bow on the roof and now in the
interiorusing the rifle with deadly effect
all the time, and this accounts for the
bandon the enterprise. We cannot I give an
adequate representation of the disappointment
of men and officers engaged in the affair.
They suffered jio loss, but from unavoidable ac
cidenls, from the force of circumstances beyond
their power to icontrol, they could not get into
action with their enemy at close quarters as they
desired. ; i . .
The callahti old Commodore was the most
chagrined of all. He took command of the ex
