Analyst of the Unfiles.' We liare read the following analysis of the battles from the Baltimore American, with lively interest. Unskilled in military science, it would bJ presumptuous and fooJUli in us to affirm that the writer has brought profound knowledge and accurate judgment tohUUak; b.it we can say, without exposing ourselves to criticism, that he has made the varying characteristics of tho respective battles plain to our understanding, and this, we suppose, il & test of qualification. X. Y. Com. Adv. It would seem as though the present campaign against Mexico had give'a to oor arrriy experience cf all the modes of warfare. . At Palj Alto the corabct was one of artillery mainly, upon an open plain, which . ff f , 1 . . . il 1 .... A.v. ..

The bittle of Palo Alto was a tattle at ' arms length. The battle of Reaaca, o;i the contrary, was a breast to breast conflict, where every sinew wu strained to give a fall to tfie adversary, and which, thaugh involving art and skill, depended principally j upon tbcer courage and main strength I i j i There tho bayonet did its work and told its story. There was here none of the platoon firing and parade manctuvrei of tha preceding day. The contest was in the woods. Tin general conflict involved a dozen minor actions, all tending to the victorious result. Here cavalry acted successfully against artillery, which, though sonictimes done, a at Waterloo, is a. nioJe of warfare of uufrequent occurrence, arid only resorted to where the gt-neral know Lis men, and can combine the different arms of the service horse and foot to produce the desired result. The character of the two batlles cf the 6th and 9:h of ilay was essentially, diverse. Still more diverse was the part which fell to the lot of that portion or the army left at Fort ilruwri. With not enough of ammunition to give to Lis mph that active employment which, iu battla, dvercdrric personal apprehension by mere physical excitement, the commanding officer at Fort Brown had to rely upoa that passive courage, which f;w but veteran troops possess'.' ' While the batteries of Matanloras were filled wiüi men, who, in comparative safety, fired at the Americans as though hey were shootirg at a mark, the soldiers of Fort Brown, instead of the rammer and pponge, the handpike anJ linstock, were using the shovel and pick, or idly watching the flight of shells aimed, and well aimed too, fr their destruction. This was a third pecies of the great genus, battle. A fourth followed in the march to Monterey. Here the contest was not with the Mexican. Cut it was a contest almost as destructive, in which toil and fatigue had to be over-; come, under a hot sun, in an inhospitable country, j and where the very absence ot an enemy to tight witn was, considering the character of the army a large part being voluuteers in itself an obstacle and dis couragement. But this march, this light against time and climate, mountain and plain, river and morass, was of incalculable value, looking to ultimate results. It turned the militia iat regulars. It taught every marl of them that the soldier to be a pood one, must give up his independence; that victory must depend upon obodience; that without this there is no persons! safety. It taught them that however individual valor rnijiht have done of old, in modern warfare, bush fighting excepted, uccess depended upon converting masses into individuals, whose will was the mind of the officer that directed them. The march to Monterey taught the trolunteers tha value of the regular phrase of shoulder ! to shoulder.' or that used by the Scotch regiments at , tne Dame 01 ronienoy suck tiiegyiher, iront anu At Jloiiterey the character of Ine conflict was ajain ; changed.. It was no lortjer the pitched battle of the I oen plain, or the tumultuous mette of a forsst fight.

r'the pasdie resistance ot besieged men, or the patlekt endurance of the toilsome march. The object was new attack, the attack tf a city among mountains, commanded by surrounding eminences, all of which tene fortified, while the city itself was built af;er a fächien that made each house a breast-work. Means quile '-different from those which were successful at Palo:AIto and Hcsaca had to be employed'. The dracoob here was powerless the flying artillery cf but "l4Roccia$ional service. Heavy artillery and infantry were the arms of service to be relied on. The shell, the heavytall, the bullet and the bayonet, the means upon - v whieh victory was to depend. Fortunately, the America'ifcoramander was equal to the new emergency, and had with him an army fully competent lo the cx- - "ecution of his designs. . . . It is not our purpose ta repeat the accounts of the laities of Monterey. There are one or two matters,
however, that seem to authorize a remark, even at so great a distance as we arc from the scene of action, the principal of which is the great disparity of loss between the divisions of Gen. Taylor and Gen. Worth. We are inclined to attribute this to the difference between the work which" they had to do respectively ; not to any greater prudence or care on the part of Gen. Worth, or any rashness or indifference to the
loss of life on the part of Gen. I ay lor. Taylor gave ta-Worth that, which to the latter was, under the circumstances, the greatest boon he could receive a parate command when the glory he zright win .. . might be his own exclusively, arid in which he has in Iruta won suScient to satisfy even his daring and
chivalrous temper. That W orth, ia the use of his troops, did not spare them, is evident from one of the accounts, which stare that the storming party of the battery command- ' ' ing the Eishop's Palace was looked upon as, in truth, a forlorn hope." But batteries like those around - Monterey, upon heights so steep that their assailants bad to clamber up precipices to reach them, and constructed temporarily, for one of these, at least, seems to have been built of sand-bags, are less dangerous to attack than would, at first sight, appear. Cannon cannot be sufficiently depressed to ßweep the face of a eteep ascent. The hill itself is a cover for the storming fart7 an lt 0I1'7 when the summit is reached, that grape and cannisier and musketry can be used with effect ; and, even thenj but fof a single discharge; for no time is given td relut'd, before tl.e bayonet becomes busy and flight or a hand to hand contest i the alternative for the defenders of the fort. What is here stated is proved to be probable, at least by the fact that, in carrying the heights about Monterey, Gcn Worth's Ions was so small; Whatever the loss the heights had ta be carried, and Worth was just the man, and we knew him well of old, to carry them
General Worth began by carrying the fort which " x'y cmfrranded the Bishop's Palace, which we infer to have been on the same ridge, though, perhaps, on
different elevations of it ; and lower down, and, in its turn,- commanded by the palace, seems to have been the city, x he taking of these forts secured the cap ture of the palace, which then became untenable, and when that fell into Worth's hands he had below him still, and at his mercy, the western part of the city, - into which be penetrated as far on his side as Taylor aid on bis. Like a row of bricks set on end by boys, the upsetting of the first causes the fally in succesion, f the ethers.- Consummate judgment seems to have marked every part of Worth a conduct Genera Tay kjf woali) seeirr to ha've kepi hard work for himself, too: and hence the greatness ot his los, The main battle which he had to fiht, was in the streets of the city, and is so well described in the ac counts that have been received that it ts only nccessa fy now to refer to tnenY. So fax as can be inferred from the accounts in the oaDers. we should not be surprised if the impatience army on the south of Monterey had led to an attempt to carry the town by a coup Je mom from the Camarjp road. Cut Monterey was not to be taken with a rush. It v.as evidvut that it was from the Camargo, and- not frum the SSaltiUo road, that -tin Mexicans expected- fy be" attacked Here their preparations were evidently th most perfect, and here their defence waa tlio most thorough and obstinate.There can be no douUf that here Irate men met brave men, and although the Mexicans had walls in front of them, it is sole' to do otherwise than admit that thty stood frmTy tad manfully at' bay, and that our lose was a great as it was because tbey did sr.. Tliit tarrying of a city, house by house, and street by street, is bTuod worlt.agaiast a foe as determined as tl.e Mexicans were; and we could cot help being reminded by tno description of it of the contests of Cortes in another part of the same country,. for the halli of the Montezuma, narrated in the history of the conquest. While cannon cannot be brought to bear on men climbing a precipice, they nowhere act
with more fatal c2-cierey than when sweeping with their fire the narrow streets of a city filled with columns of infantry. StiH, street after street was taken, and the enemy forced into the plaza, by the persevering courage of oaf iolJIcrS. The taking of a fortified place by regular opproache, opening parallel after parallel, until a breach is made, is the only tuode of warfare of which Hie present campaign has furnished no example. If there i such a place in Mexico, and the war continues, we are almost l. d to believe, from what has occurred already, that Taylor will find it out and take it, if only to prove that there is nothing iu warfare to which his army is nvt competent. The Hallway to Oregon.
It is very certain that if any thiojj ia to be done by - - J o y the general government in favor of this enterprise, il niuit be itane now. It is not one of those undertakings i . . i i .i- : r : hich can be best executed when the occasion for it j shall become most pressing. Now is the time to assist it, without bringing the least inconvenience opon the nation, or departing from the strict constutional powers of tl.e government. While we delay, the lands. from which it is contemplated to raise the fame for building the road, are passing out of the hands of the rovernment forever, and by tl.e time we have large and flourishing settlements in Oregon, they will have become the property of individuals, and the construction of the railway will be embarrassed with difficulties which may potprne it half a century. . We hive already epokr'n at some length of the practicability of this enterprise. A friend has thrown together the following reflections on its immediate benefits, while the road is constructing, and before the Kocky Mountains arc recched, and its ultimate advantages after it shall have been made to the shores of the I'acifirr. ... "The building of this road will cause an outlay of from two tu five "millions of dollars annually, which must be distributed over the whole country, for labor. materials and transportation. The greater part of this sum will be furnished by emigrant from Lurope, who bring money with them, and will be bo much actual cash capital added to the wealth of the country. I The opportunity for employment and settlement which r :n i . it . i i . I . j win ueopenca oy uns great wont, win nave a lenuncy to increase emigration, and by consequence increase the demand for ships, and give activity to our commerce. In a country now a desert, and remote from all communication with civilized communities, and with markets, a population of producers and customers both of our merchants and our manufacturers. ' These are some of the immediate advantages of the project ; the future are cf a striking nature. Ihe report of the committee of the United States Senate gives a statement of the traue ot Asia, winch it is supposed may be made to pass through this channel, It employs annually 1580 chips, measuring G-i,4S0 tons, with 30,6-13 men. Allow as is estimated, that these vessels will carry 818,1 (M) tons weight, aud sup ttose they carry full freight one way and half freight the other, we shall have 1,277,150 tons passing over this road annually. I his, at half a cent per ton, tor each mile would give a revenue of $14,7"J5.8C0 and at one cent a mile for the roads which lead from the Oregon railway to the Atlantic, would give them $12,271,500, making a revenue of nearly twentyseven millions oF dollars, an amount sufficient to give all the railways liberal dividends and make the commerce of Europe their tributary. Let us see in' what manner this commerce will find it for its advantage to take this passage to Asia. A ton Weight of teas, or Other like, merchandise, ' will in nsnro twn tnna nn! nnvrnrH-i rF fort ri,h,r fpot i to the ton. Allow seven dollars and upwards as for the fre.ght of a ton of forty cubic feet from Shanghoe to Oregon, and half a cent per ton for each mile along j the aveiaee pr.ee for shins, liesides this the (Jommittee's Report has a statement showing an estimated saving in cost to passengers and English mails of $13,76G,i3u, and asavingm the amount of capital invested in tonnage for this commerce of $30,493,G13. To carrv on the commerce which would pass along this road", it 13 estimated that one half of the present amount of tonnage would suffice for the present trade, as the sea voyages will be so greatly shortened that several can be made in the space of time now required for one. Uut it is believed that the opening of a communication so frequent, cheap and rapid will vastly increase the amount of the trade, and by consequence the tonnage aLo. By this we see that we shall immediately on the completion of the road want & city on the Pacific, to accommodate more than thirty thousand sea faring men." -V. Y. Evening Post.

If goods verbally given at one place are, at the time of the gift, in different place, and are conreited by a stranger, befoie the donee can take possession of them, an action by the donor lies for the conversion. In trover, w ben there bas been a demand and refusal to deliver the property in dispute, within six years befoie the commencement of the action, and there has been no other evidence of the conversion than, the demand and refusal, tbe statute of limitations does not bar the action. .. .
