The News From Mexico

We give nt considerable length the -official despatches of Gen. Taylor, relating the particulars of the repulse of the Mexicana at Buenti Vista, and also all the account which has reached us of the surrender of the castle of Jnn Juan and Ihe city of Vera Cruz. Both these etents ire calculated greatly to discour ag tho Maxicans from the further prosecution of the war. Whether they will have that effect on the Mexican pcople ind governrnetit, cawnot be foreíold unies by those who have a better knowledgo of the Mexican character, nnd of the circumsiances ofihc iiatiorv, than we can have. lt mny be that a pece iViSïbe concluded without furiher conflicto: but if it should, it will probably be efTectcd ns much by the influenco of Mr. Polk's Three Millions of gold upou the Mnxiicnn officers and army, as by tho terror of the North American arms. Tlve Mexican nation, as such, is not by any rneins fo disabled as to bo ncnpable of further fight, or in jteril of nptional exisience ; and if it be animatcd by such intense hatred of the invaders as all accounts reprfneiA, vre doubt whether one third of the nntional domain, and half a million of the inhabitantH wili be ceded to United Siates without a further struggln. Ilowever inferior in military disciplino or equip imenbc, the Mexicana have shown in thi war, and in the achieverrtent of their in.dependence, ihattneyare ■not deficiënt in personal courage and firmness, and thov an fight, if they wül. Our government, however, wo believe, ha6strong hpes of fcecuriog an immediaie pcace.
