The in , ,uri;ents have two armies, which are commanded by Generals Mo RE 1. Los and RYAS. The former lett'. taken Acapleo, after a long blockade. After its capture 1:e pushed on towards the Tab:e land, or plains of New Spain, defeated the Royal Army, and advanced towards Vela Cruz. The Royal General, CALL EJAS, fell back, in older to save his magazines in his rear, and to get aid from Vera Cruz. He also intreriched himself near the Castle of Puotte, where MORELLOS attacked him, and gained a complete victory. CALL. EJ AS and part of his Staff are reported to have been ' taken prisoners. After this victory Vera Cruz was invested. It is also said that the city of Mexico was besieged by 70,000 men, under RYAN. Several persons had left the United Sta'es with a view to join the insurgents. Several Officets recently arrived from Burgos mention', that the main body of our army was some leagues in advance _of Burgos. These Gentlemen know nothing of INI ASSEN nor of reinforcements ; and do not think that either have entered Spain. Our sick and wounded from Salamanca have mostly recovered and joined the army, which is by no _means unhealthy.

The A !review% Fxecutive conttnae th:•ir measures of hostility ; but t!te sense of the people at large is decidedly against the conduct of their Rulers; and meetings continue to be he d in a!! directions, at whit h the strongest resolutions 'ale entered into against the farther prosecution of the war.

An article from Halifat , , of the 9.d tilt. states, tht.t a flag of truce had ain't\ ed flons Washington ; I,nt no.hiatg appears to have resti!ted from it.

From the following paragraph given Courier last night, it may.pretty accurately be . inferred that M.

We understand.. from good• authority, that the. Earl of MOIRA has been offered and has accepted the joint offices of Covernor-General •of India and Commander in Chief of his Majesty's forces in that peninsulp, and in all.the settle ments beyond the Cape of Good Hope. .. --J.-4 -- N p 0 p"
