This evening's southern mail urines us some deeply interesting and thrilling news fruni our gallant army.

Eaton, who has brought despatches from Gen. Taylor to the War Department. Capt. Eaton left our cuinp at Monterey on tho evening of the Uöth of September, lie deserves .Teat credit for the alacrity and energy which he lias exhibited in reaching Washington from Monterey in tixlen days! We have no time for further comment to-night. Our irmy has again covered itself with glory. It has crivea the Mexicans from their strong entrenchments, va very precipitous heights, on both sides of the Kio tel Tigre stunning them in the fat e of the enemy tnd their guns beating an army of double their own force, as has been estimated, and after four days' fighting, and driving the enemy from one entrenchment after another, and from street to street, compelling them to surrender Monterey with all its supplies tf ammunition, provision, &c, and cannon, with a very small exception. Neither army is to pass a epecified line which is perhaps nearly half way between Monterey and Saltillo under eight weeks. But this armistice, in the first place, docs not rm'trace cur other lines of operations; and, secondly, it is subject, in express terms, to the orders and instructs ntof the two governments. The army is worthy of all praise for the gallantry and skill which have been displayed by our officers and troops, both volunteers and regulars. This is another brilliant military event in the annals of our country. Tut, in obtaining this glorious victory, we have lost ! many a noble officer and gallant soldier. The hearts of their countrymen are tiled with the deepest gratitude for the heroic services of these brave men who liave thus given their lives to the cause of their country ; and the whole nation profoundly sympathises with their bereaved families and friends. We must reserve, until to-moi row, the official details of this brilliant achievement. From the N. O. Picayune, Ex:ra, Oct. 4. - News from the Army. Hisly memorandii of the operations oj the American Army beftrre Monterey, Mexico, from the 19 A to the 2lth Septtmber. On the 19th Gen. Taylor arrived before Monterey with a force of about ÜOOU inen, and after reconnoitering the city at about l.üWpr 1,IM) yards from the Cathedral fort, during which he va3 fired upon from ita batteries his force was encamped at the Walnut c?rir.;p, ihr" -"22 s!l0r' i.y. iiiiX'juihe nearest position at which the army could obtain a supply of water, and be beyond the reach of the enemy's baUcries. The remainder of the 19th was occupied by the engineers in making reconnoisances of the city, batteries', and commanding heights. On the ÜUtli, Gen. Worth wa ordered with his division to novc by a circuitous route-to the right, to gain the Saltillo road beyond the. weat of the town, and to storm the heights above Bishop's Palace, which vital point the enemy appear to have strangely neglected. Circumstances caused his bait on the night of the iJUth, short of the intended position. " On the morning of the 2lst he continued his route, and after an encounter with a large body of the enemy's cavalry and infantry, supported by artillery from the heights, he repuUed them with loss, and finally encamped covering the passage of the Saltillo road. It was here discovered that besides the fort at the Bishop's Palace, and the occupation of the heights above it, two forts on commanding eminences on the opposite side of the Juan had been fortified and occupied. These two latter heights were then stormed and carried the guns of the last fort carried being immediately turned with a plunging fire upon the Bishop's l'alace. On the same morning (the 21st) the first division of regular troops under General Twiggs, and the volunteer division under General Butler, were ordered under" arms to make a diversion to the left of the town, in favor of the important operations under Gen. Worth. The 10-inch mortar and two 24 pound howitzers, had been put in the battery on the night of the 20th, in a ravine 1400 yards distant from the Cathedral fort or citadel, and were supported by the 4th regiment of infantry. At 8 A. M., on the 21st, the order was given for this battery to open upon the citadel and town immediately after the first division, with the 3d and 4th infantry in advance under Col. Garland, were ordered to reconnoitre and skirmish with the enemy on the extreme left of tha ciiy, and should prospects of success offer, .to-carry the most advanced Lattery. This attack was directed by Maj. Mansfield, engineer, Captain Williams, topographical engineer, and Majur Kinney, quartermaster to the Texas division. A heavy fire from thv first battery was immediately opened upon the advance, but the troops soon turned it, entering and engaging the enemy in the streets of the city, . having pissed through an incessant cross fire from ' tue Citadel and the first and second batteries, and -from the infantry who lined the parapets, streets, and housetops of the city. ' The rear of the first battery was soon turned, and the reverse fire of the troops through-the gorge of the works killed or dislodged the artillerists and infantry front it and the building occupied by the infantry immediately in the rear. The 1st division was followed and supported by the Mississippi and Tennessee and 1st Oii.o regiments the two former regiments beinjr the first t scale and occupy the fort. The success of the day stopped here. The Mississippi, Tennessee, and Ohio regiments, though warmly engaged in the streets of the city for some time after the capture of the first battery and ita adjoining defences, were unable, from exhaustion and the loss they had suffered to gain more advan tage. A heavy shower of rain also came up to cau;e a suspension of hostilities before the close of the day. The 3d, 4th. and 1st infantry and the Baltimore battalion rem lined as th; garisou of tb.3 captured position, under Colonel Garland, assisted by Captain Ridgeley 'a battery. Two 12-poundors, one 4-pounder, nd one howitzer, were ciptured in this fort, three i .... . . i ! . orLcera and some twenty or thirty men taken prisoners One of the 12 pounders was served ngainst the 2d fort and defence:, with capt ired ammunition, during the remainder of the day by Capt. Ridgley. The storming parties of Gen. worth's division also captured two U pounder?, which were also immediately turned against their former owners. On the morning of the 1J2J, General Worth continued his operations, aud portions of his ditision stormed and carried successively the heights above Bislrop's Pül-ice. Ith were carried by a command under Captain Vinton, 3d artillery, in these operations the company of Louisiana troops, under Capt. Blanchard, performed efficient and gallant service as part of Captain Vinton' command. Four pieces of artillery-, with a gwd supply of ammunition, were captured in the Bishop's Palace this day, some of w hich were immediately turned upon the enemy's defences in the city. Ou the evening of the 22J Col. Garland and his com.nind wore relieved as the garrison of the captured f.rta by Gen. Quitman, with the Mississippi and Tennessee regiments, and five companies of the Keutucky regimeut. Early on Ihe morning the General Quitman, from iii-s portion, discovered that the second and third forts and drfences east of th? City hid bedi entirely aband ned by the enemy, who, apprehend. ng another assault on tire night of the 22J, had retired from all liil defences to the miin plizi and its immednte vi - einity.

heart of lhe city. TliU cngagemeut lasted the best part of the I.iyf our truojw havm driven the scattered parties of the enemy, and penetrated quite to the JY.llncos of the mail) plaza. The advantage thus gained, it was not co.iidurcd nece&sary to hold, as the enemy lud r:riu.iii ouily abandoned the city and its defence, except the inaiii pliza, its immediate vicinity, and the cathedral fort or citndel.

Tuus ended tli? opt-rations of tb3 lJJ. Early on the morning of the 2 Uli, a communication wad sent to Gen. Tayl.tr by Gen. Ampudia, under a - flar, making an oiler of capitulation, to which the former refused to accede, as it asked marc than the American commander would under any circumstances . &t t,je SB tine a demanJ lQ Burrendcr wa3 ' w in reply, made upon Gen. Ampudia; 12 m. was the hour ot which the acceptance was to bo communicated to the American General. At II, A. M., the Mexican General sent, requesting a personal ctmference with Gen. Taylor, which was granted ; the principal officers of rank on either side accompanying their General?. After several offers in relation to the capitulatiou of the city made on either side and refused, at half past 4, I'. M., General Taylor arose, and saying he would give General Ampudia one hour to consider and accept or refuse, left the conference with his officers. At the expiration of the hour, the discharge of the mortar, was to bo ti e signal for the commencement of hostilities. Before the expiration of the hour, huwever, an oHker was sent on the part of General Ampudia to inform the American General that, to avoid .the further clfusion of blood, and the national .honor being satisfied with the exertions of the Mexican, troops, he had, after consultation with his general officers, decidid to capitulate, accepting the oirer of the American General. The terms of rapiiulation were in effect as follows: That the officers should be .allowed to march out with their side arms... - Tnat the cavalry and infantry should be allowed to march out witli their arms and accoutrements. That the artillery should be allowed to march out with one battery of six pieces and twenty-one rounds of ammunition. That all other munitions of war and supplies should be turned over to a hoard of American officers appointed to receive them. Tint the Mexican army should be allowed seven days to evacuate the city, and that the American troops should not occupy it until evacuated. That the cathedral fort or citadel should.be evacuated at 10, A. M., next day, (25th,) the Mexican then marching out, and the American garrison marching in. The Mexicans allowed to salute their Mag, when hauled down. That there should be an armistice of eight weeks, during which time neither army should pass a line running from the Ilinconada through Linares and San Fernand). This lenient offer . of the American General was dictated with the concurrence of his generals, and by motives of good policy and consideration for the food defence of their city by the Mexican army. :- KiiicJ.

Gentlemen' The city lias capitulated on the following terms: The Mexican soldiers shall be permitted to march out of town with their small arms and six small field pieces, leaving all their munitions of war behind, with all their artillery and public stores. They are to retire to Linares, 'sixty miles hence, and about thirty miles north or faaiaiio, and are not to approach nearer thau that to this place within sixty days, or until each party cau hear from its respective government. Ampudia kept General iaylor until nearly midnight last night preparing the terms, &c. Many persons particularly the lexan volunteers, who fought so bravely, are displeased witk these terms. The town was all but in our hands, and they believe could have been taken in three hours. I believe that it would have required much mare hard fighting to have taken it, but this was not the question wiih Gen. Taylor. He and all his officers knew perfectly well, of course, that the town could soon be taken, but he wanted no prisDners to take up his time and eat his substance, but he did have an object in view which will be reached by the terms of this cap itulation, and that object will lead to a result most be neficial to our government, under whose advice or orders General Taylor acted in agrecincr to the33 terms. As I have a few tn'nutcs to spare before the express goes out this morning (he was detained last night by the slow progress of business with Ampudia,) I will speak of tho operations of General Taylor on his side of the town. Major Mansfield, of the engineers, reconnoitred the tncrny's works on the night of the 19th, but could obtain no very accurate information, although he approached very near to some of them on the heights. On the ythh, Lieut. Scarritt and Lieut. Tope were se'nt out to reconnoitre the works ; Scarritt on the right and Tope on the left of the town. The latter approached and discovered the position of a battery on the extreme left, and was exposed to a fire of cannon and musketry from lancers, from which, after finishing his observation, he retired in safety. On the night of the 20t!i the mortar and howitzer batteries were placed in a position to pky on the strong holds art una the citadel. 1 ho action commenced on the Burning of the 1st, by the opening of theso batteries. Col. Garland's brigade were ordered to move to the left for the purpose of storming the battery discovered by Lieut. Pope the day before, and to occupy, if possible, the lower part of the city. Major Mansfi.U, CapL Willian.s, and Lieut. Fope were ordered in advance to select the most available point of at j tack, and to direct the movements of the column upon I:. 'in : .i , ti. i nrua cuiiipiuuea were tnrown iorwaru asKirmiilirrs and advanced rapidly towards the works, followed by the Iriada in lino of btttle under a cross fire of artillery from the citadel and fort, and a heavy fire of musketry. The column charged Into a street 2t!0 yards to the ri'it of the battery, passed the works entirely, and effected an entrance to the town. After advancing rapidly about 4M0 yards beyond the battery Ihey came immediately in front of a masked battery, which swept the street completely by its rane. The barricades of the streets at sixty yards distance from the head of the column, were lined with Mexican troops, who, entirely covered themselves, opened a murderous discharge of grape and musketry upon the advancing column. Every house in the etrcet was pierced for musketry, and enfiladed the street in every direction. Under this fire the following officers weie killed, or mortally wounded : Major Barbour, 3d infantry, by grape shot in the abdomen ; Captain Williams, Tojiograpliical engineer, shot through the body with a musket ball, fell in the street, and was dragged in the doorway of a Isyuse by Lieut. Tope ainid-rt a shower ofon!!, that covered him with dust. The gallantry ofthisyoun-j officer, now -in his first buttle, is upoken of in admiration by the army. Captain V illiams died the next day, and was buried will the honors of wir by tho Mexican troops, into whose linnds he had fallen. Lieut. Territ, 1st infantry shot ': through lhe body, died ihe next day. Wouwlrl Major Mansfield, ball through calf of the log. This brave ofTicer would not leave on account uf his wound, but rod- about, behaving in the most gallant manner all diy. Captain HainbridTC, 3d infantry, slightly wounded in tho hand; Major Lenr, dtnjerutis! wounded in the moulh, the ball 1 n-M.sin? out at the back of Wim hnnrl ? ATaior Alw-r. pusiug out at the back of his head: Maior Aber I rromhie. 1st infantry, pevcrcly wounded ; Lieut, p. 'Graham, 1th infantry, severely wounded in both legs and body. Hopes are entertained of his recovery.

A great number of men killed and wounded number not known. It being impossible, in the opinion of the engineer officers, to etfect anything in attacking the barricades in front, the column moved rapidly up a 6trett la the rijjht with the intention of turning Hum. Bein reinforced by the Ohio regiment, a second charge was made und -r the direction of Gen. Butler ; which, owing to the tremendous fire of musketry and grape from the barricades and stone-houcs, likewise proved ineffectual. The troops were th?n ordered by General Taylor to retire in good order and get uiiJer cover from the enemy's fire ; which order was handsomely executed. The following officers were killed or mortally wounded (since died) in the second charge; Colonel Watson, of the Baltimore battalion, Capt L. N. Morris, 3d infantry ; Lieut. D: Irwin, 3d infantry ; Lieut. R. Hazlitt, 4th infantry. Three officers were killed in the first charge which I did not include in that list, viz : Lieut. Hoskens, 3d infantry ; Lieut. J. S. Wood, 4th infantry ; Capt. Field, 3d infantry. Woundtd. Major Gen. Butler, slightly, through the calf of the leg; Col. Mitchell, in the leg; Capt. Lamotte, 1st infaulry, slightly; Lieut. DilKvorth, 1st infantry, leg shot olf. Durinjr the enjratrcment in town, of Garland's brigade, the forts that were passed on the left in entering the town, were gallantly carried by the Tennessee and Mississippi regiments the first commanded by Col. Campbell, and the second by Col. Davis. Lieut. Col. McClung, of the Mississippi regiment, was d-.n-gerously wounded. These regiments sustained a great loss, of killed and wounded, but I cannot in the short time left ine, ascertain the names or number of those who fell. Capt. Bragg's battery of light artillery was brought into action, but as it was impossible to use it effectively, it was withdrawn. Several pieces of artillery were captured. The forts that were taken were occupied by Kidgely's light artillery company, who turned tho captured pieces against the Mexican works, and the cannonade was kept up the re-t of the day. There were many skirmishes, and gallant . deeds, &c, which I will mention at a future time."" - On the night of the 22d, the enemy abandoned the two works which had provd so destructive to the 3d and 4th infantry, and they were occupied early next morning by the Mississippi and Tennessee regiments, under Gen. Quitman. About 8 o'clock, same morning, these two regiments advanced on the town, and a sharp engagement commenced. Thee regiments were supported by a body of Texan Rangers, (dismounted for the occasion,) undir Gen. Henderson and by the 3d regiment of infantry. The fight was kept up until 4 o'clock, p. m.f during which time uur troops drove the enemy from house to house, almost to the main plaza. The loss of life on our side was

not severe durinjr this day. On the morning of the 21th, a flag of truce was Bent in, which resulted in the capitulation of the town. During the whole of the engagement on the 21st, Col. Kinney was exceedingly useful in carrying orders, and in giving advice in matters with which his thorough acquaintance with Mexican customs rendered him familiar. He was in the thickest of the fight, moving about from point to point, and doing good execution with his ntle. This gentleman's cervices have been invaluable to üen. Taylor in the movements of the army from .Matamoras to this place. He ha been everywhere, reconnoitering the country, and procuring information riding night and day ; and exposing his life in a thousand ways. The Colonel never flinched from any duty required of him, and, had Gen. Taylor ordered him to go and bring him Ampudia's portfolio, he would have undertaken it. I devote a paragraph to tbe mention of this gentleman's services, because he des eserves much from the public, for whom he has laburcJ so arduously and so efficiently. F. S. Our killed and wrunded, in taking Monterey, amounted to about Gve hundred, nearly three hundred killed. Some lime will elapse before the number will be known accurately, but it is well known that few prisoners were taken by the Mexicans. A letter dated from the Camp near Monterey, Sept. 24:h, says: The place was much more strongly fortified than General Taylor had any idea of, and the Mexicans defended their works with skill and de termination.' The carnage on our side is great, and ' probably more so tnan that of the Mexicans. As to thit we d not know, as they fought under cover all the time. Gen. Worth has distinguished himself as a gallant soldier and skillful co imander. Gen. Taylor gave him a fair chance, and he has nobly availed himself of it. His division, with Hay's regiment of Texan volunteers, has gained more ground and carried more points than all the rest of the army, and with very little loss, up to yesterday, C, P. M., it is only five killed and twenty-eight wounded. , The loss on our side will not be less than five hundred killed, wounded, and prisoners. . A letter dated Brazos Santiago, Sept. 20, says : Gen. Ampudia acknowledged 7,000a the number of his troops, but it probably amounted 4o fully 11,000. Our loss is severe. The 1st, 3d, and 4th infantry suffered, with the Tennessee volunteers, on the 2lst, under the eye of Gen. Taylor. General Taylor escaped unhurt, but was greatly exposed; his horse was wounded. Gen. Worth with Lis battalion and Hays' command had an action some distance this side of Monterey, with a considerable Mexican force, and dispersed them in a short time. Col. Hays killed a lieutenantcolonel of the Mexican army single handed. Some volunteers on their way fr.un Mier to join the army, were attacked by a large body of Mexican troops and killed and shockingly mutilated. Elections. Maryland whig as usual. Little from 0'iio, and that rather whiggish. No room fjr more to-day, on account of war news. Widows of Officers who havä Fallen in Battle. The widows of officers who have fallen in defence of their country, are by our present law entitled to a moderate provision for five years. Of the widows of officers who fell in the Florida war. somtfl nineteen, we are informed, are still living, (a few are again married,) but the pensions have all ceased. When it is considered that in the changing and exciting life of an officer, with the ordinary pay, few can be expected to make adequate provision for their families, if cut down, as they are constantly exposed to be, in time of war, we see no sufficient reason for limiting the pensions of widows (especially if they continue unmarried) to five years. Some efforts have bten made to secure au extension of these pensions, and the circumstances of the widows of several of our brave officers fallen in action, demand that the government should listen to their appeals, and at least save them from utter penury. The thought that those nearest and most beloved, should suffer the keenest anguish for want of the support of his arm, and by the neglect of his country, must embitter the last moments of the hero expiring in the very arms of victory. Journal of Com. Treasure Found. The Barnstable Patriot says that "two men belonging to Nantucket, discovered on the shore of that island a few days since, after an unusually low ebb tide, a cask, the head showing itself a little above the surftce of tho water, and which they found on extricating it from its bed, to contain 5,IHJ0 Spanish Dollars ! it is thought to be. a pajt'of the cargo of a brig wrecked at that place more than fifteen years ago." . A cataract has been discovered on the river St. Louis, where it falls into the Western extremity of L.ake superior, which has never been described by any geographer.
