VThe country from Iteynosa to Camar-:v go and Mier, and through to Monterey, is ] ” tilled with marauding Mexicans, robbing and murdering wherever they can do sowith impunity.LATER.Col. llarney has been arrested by Gen. Scott for disobedience of orders, and was to be tried immediately by court martial. | We have also received letters from Mr. 1 Haile, who is with Gen. Worth’s division, but which the lateness of the hour prevents our giving this morning. His last letter is dated “ On the Rio Grande, near Palo Alto,” on the 27th nh., in which he states that Gen. Worth is quite unwell, but still able to give, orders. He has between two and three thousand men with him—the pick of the army.Gen Scott and staff still remained at Brazos, but was thought would sail in a few days for Tampico. The news brought by the McKim that Gen. Taylor had returned to Monterey is confirmed.The vessels with the 1st RegimentPennsylvania volunteers on board had arrived off the Brazos—all well. They have been ordered, it is said, to Lobos.From Tampico we have dates to the 26th ult., brought by Major Morris. He informs us that Gen. Patterson arrived there on the 23d with 4-500 men. Gens. Twiggs, Quitman and Pillow were along —troops all in good health.”From the above, we presume that Gen. Scott accompanied by Gen. Worth, will command the troops in their attack upon Vera Cruz, (which it is supposed will be the next point attacked,) while Gen. Taylor will remain and command the division of the army at Monterey, Saltdlo, See. The Georgia Regiment is now at Tampico with Gen. Quitman’s brigade, and from the signs of the times, we think they stand a first rate chance of being the next to. meet the enemies of their country—and if such should be the case vve /enow they • will render a good account of themselves.
