AI PROACIi TO THE CITY OF MEXICO.
If a mirrh to Ihe Mexican cspitol, from Vera Cruz
ns the starting point, is determined on by the great
inihiaiy aug- < al VV a-bington, we all have an interest
in knowing what is l be encountered on the road.—
The following itenerary, as il may be called, has been
made up from authentic sou-ces, and ia believed to be
uccurale.
Ft ra Cruz. —The city of Vera Cruz is walled round,
tvitb s fort at each extremity of the water front; the
walla on the land s,lie are loopholed lor musketry.—
Parapet guns have recently been mounted on the walls,
‘i’ne ci-y walla are very thi k. of coral rock; Ihe nails
ol the houses are usually SJ leet thick, and the roofs
are fiat. Each house has a cistern or cisterns of rain
water. The city is well paved.
I'ivin Vera Cruz to Mexico. —About ten miles from
Vera Cruz is a stream 200 yards wide, crossed si a
ferry iu scows, or by swimming horses over. The m xt
stream, lbout 00 miles from Vera Cruz, is fordable,
and is also spanned by a wooden bridge called Puerile
del Key (the Kings bridge) and also the national lo dge.
Near it on the right Is an eminence of about CO leet,
on which is a fort, completely commanding the ap
proach and bridge,
lielwcea ilicse bridge* and Jultipa, the road passes
near several heights, Loin which the natives can annoy
invaders on (he load.
City of Ju.'apa —Tbfl city sUmls ou very elevated
ground, yet lor many in li e die a-cent is quite gradual. 1
From the city Vera Oruz :• visible, and is afar the sea, !
90 miles distant. Tnc city itself is upon a higU bill—
highest in the centre, so lint llie streets Hicline consid
erably ; to mui b si that no wheeled vehicle can pass
along any ut them except the main street, or road, j
which has a considerable rise and descent. The city
is surrounded by a nail, and has a strongly built
Church near the western gale, which could he conver
ted into a citadel. The etreels-are psved. The hous
es, as in other Mexican towns, sre of stone, with flat
roofs, and iron barred windows. Opposite the city, on
the left of the road, is a hill from which the toad might
tie annoyed and shells thrown into the town. For the
distance if sir or een miles bi lote reaching the town,
the road is a handsome and substantia! structure of
ehrqueied pavement, and must have 10-eri very costly,
I‘erote. —At a base of a high rnooui, bearing the
snue name, some distance fioni the road on the left, is
a cluster of houses, with a Church, called I'erotr.
Cattle of terate.— Opposite, on the right of the
road, and commanding it in every direction, stands lh
castle. It is upon a till sandy plain, strongly built of
stone and encircled by a deep d<y fosse or ditih. The
mam cutiance is by going over a ctievauidcfrize by a
stile, descending s une f enty-five or thiily alone steps
to the bottom of the lossc and crossing it to the gates,
which arc on a level with the bottom.
City nj Peubh. —This city is walled and forliSeJ.
It is built of stone and the streets are well pared. Con
tains about 100 000 inhabitants. Mere water is abun
dant, hut from the national bridge to this city no water
can tic obtained—the natives substituting pulque as a
beverage.
From Jalapa to Puebla there ars occasional heights
near the road, which, il fortified, might annoy in'ad
• ers, In fact, from W m Cru* to I’ueola, this is the
CISC —the travel being alternately over broad unob
structed roads and narrow passes, commanded by
height*. The road passes through Puebla. The Pueb
linos have a peculiar character; they ore cunning and
courageous, and the must expert robbers and assassins
throughout Mexico, where there is no lack of such
If an offender is brought before an alcalde, any where
else, sud ia known or ascertained to he a Pueblano, his
condemn ill >n is sure. Cordova. A small wall and
garrisoned town, through which the road piasea. Be
yond Puebla the road is good till it reaches the moun
tain of Cordova, about midway between the former and
the city of Mexico, where the ascent it very rugged
and steep, though without di files. Near the ro*J, at
the foot of ihis mountain, pasca the Kiu Frio, or cold
riser, which has its rise in the neighboring mountain
of Poporolapell, 17.01)0 feet above the level of the sea.
A. work on soma of the height! of Popocatapell would
command the ro^d.
After leaving the mountain of Cordova the road is
good and unobsliueted, with plenty ol water, to Ihe
city of Mexico. For several miles hefoie reaching that
city the road is delightful, |atmg between parallel ca
nals and rows of l.ombardy poplara.
The Lake nf Ttzcueo —Thia lake commences on the
right nf the roid. near the city, into which its waters
are carried bv a canal, the latter serving also to drain
the gutters, A—, into the lake. The eo-called lake is a
Urge, long und very irregulir ahaped basin, shallow
and containing numerous small islands and covered by
myriads of wild ducks. The depth of water varies
with the season ; in Ihe lainy months the basin is fill
ed, and then assumes the sppesrance of s Urge lake,
being the receptacle of all the drainage from the city it
is very filthy. The csnsl from Ihe city pisses through
it, fed by its waters, five or si* miles in a south rast
direction to the small furl nf Chaleo, it the extrema
tos-g.n of the basin in that direction. This canal is
loted lor transporting produce into the city and lor
plea-tire excursion# in gondolas, &c.
City of Mexico Like all other Mexican cities this

Ithe centre us each street, coveted by broad 11 ig stones.
I removable at pleasure. All the gutteis are drained into
’ the canal of the lake. The city has many large and
strong churches and other great buildings, easily con
verted into fortresses. If its walls were repaired snd
mounted with cannon, ar.d well gariisoned, it could
make a formidable rrs ; lsnce of besiegers.
During the festival days, which are very numerous,
the haciendas for twenty or thirty miles around send
into the city not less than SIO,OOO mounted pea-untry
of the better class, moat ex pert horsemen. They are
courageous and skilful in the use of the lance, lasso
and machete, which is a large and heavy knife. No
thing more would be necessary than for the padres to
go forth into the street* of the principal citios. particu
larly Fuelda and Mexico, elevate their crosses and ap
peal to the bigotry of the population, to rally an im
mense force of bold, active and desperate men, who
would make fierce resistance to an invasion, And if
invaders should force their way in, assassinations by
the bands of so many expert murderers woulJ soon
make fearful inroads on their numbers.

Sin/a Anna President of Mexico—Gomez Punas
Vice President — War Mcusures — Condition of
Yucatan, de
li v the arrival of the bark John Barnes, Capt. Sta
ples. we have dates bom Anton Lizardo up to the 31 t
ult.. and a letter Iroin one of uur correspondents dated
on the 28th. The John Adams was still blockading
Vera Cruz, while the rest of the squadron were to lee
ward on a cruise. The only ves.-els at Anton Lizardo
when the John Barnes sailed weie the frigate Raritan,
the store-ship Relief, and the steamer Petrita.
We are ind btsd to the promptness of a friend for
the faithful delivery of the following letter from one ol
our correspondents. It contains the intelligence of in
terest brought by this arrival.
Il is a remarkable feature of the news, and one
which exhibits the vicissitudes ol public life in Mexico
in a striking phasis, that Gomez Farias is Vice P.e.i
dent under Santa Anna. Faiias was once before \ ice
President during Santa Anna’s Presidency. 11 is wily
superior, knowing the hostility of Faiias to the hier
archy, and desirous nf improving the finances by a
confiscation of the church properly, set him to work to
digests plan and prepare the public mind for seizing
upon the ecclesiastical estates. The efiTuil failed utter
ly. and the Government was übout being made to feel
the power nf an interest it had alarmed, when Santa
Anna deserted Gomez Farias, threw upon him the odi
um of the scheme, and escaped himsell from the storm
he had helped lo raise. Gomez Farias was banished
from the State and for a number of years resided in
this city with his family, pinched by necessity and op
pressed with care. Santa Anna in lime was over
thrown an.l banished by Parades. Farias, immediate
ly upon the fall of the dictator, lulurned to Mexico,
wheie he has ever since taken a conspicuous part in
the political affairs of the country. Santa Anns, by a
sudden revolution in public opinion, was re. ailed from
banishment, and now these tw o politicians, as opposite
as the poles in principles and hating each other with a
rancor that has been nurtuted in dt-grace, occupy the
first and second offices in the Republic. F arias is a
reformer of the progressive party ; Ins opinions are of ;
the most liberal character- He is a republican at heart. ;
a federalist in the Mexican sense of the term, and as
bitter against religious as political trammels, Santa i
Anna is just what his interest for the lime being re
quires him lo be. Ttio close proximity of two such
men does not augur well f r the durability of the Gov
ernment which they administer, nor us the suavity that
may qualify their councils.
In eo far as the elevation to office of Ivto men occu
pying the exlieim-s of political fjetion may interpret
the public opinion of Mexico, it may indicate a fusion ■
of all parties, a union of all cliques, sects, divisions and
classes of the people in one great war parly. Gomez
F’arias was, if any thing, the most violent of all Mexi
can politicians against the dismemberment of Texas,
and he may have united wi h Santa Anna tn set an
example of the suppression of personal and political
1 hatred in forming an alliance for the object of consoli
dating the strength of the state against a common en
emy.
Prom the Savannah Republican.
: I A Disclosobk.— Out readers will remember that
, in our paper of Dec. 18th, we adverted to a letter i f
the cuirespondent of the Baltimore Patriot, dated Dec.
. 10th 1846. the purport of which was that the Execu
i 1 live at Washington had in its possession, a correspon
■ I Jence showing that the commencement of hostilities
! on the Ria Grande might have been honorably avoided,
i I The letter writer asserted that Arista, fit the instance
i of President Herrera, had addressed a note to General
Taylor, urging rt upon him, that hostilities might be
avoided, and Mexican honor maintained, if the forces
of rtie two nations were kept away from the disputed
territory between the Nueces and Rio Grande, and that
his proposition was forwarded by Gen. 1 avlor to the
Executive a*. Washington, where it was suppressed,
instead of being communicated to Congress.
Alluding to this statement, we then made the follow
ing remarks; “Strange as it may seem, the substance
of the last paragraph was made known to us more than
four months ago by a Carolinian*, who is always well
posted up upon public matters. The statement was
even stronger than that of the correspondent of the Pa
triot, li was this —that Arista distinctly stated,‘that
if the American forces weie not pushed (orward upon
Matamoro* the point of honor would be avoided und
no fight would be necessary ; hut if the contemplated
movement was carried out, Mexicans would he com
pelled to resist, even if tbo struggle should terminate
in the annihilation of the Republic.”
We have now 10 add, from the Washington corres
pondent of the Charleston Mercury another letter
itrongly confii matojv of the correctness of the above
repoita. This ia a letter written by our late Consul
at MaUmoios to Gen. Taylor, one surelv of auffivient
importance to demand the attention of the Executive ,
beside which.it would appear that Mr. Maiks himself
went to Washington to lay the overtures fr an ami
cable adjustment of differences bilore the President of
the Un ted States. During his absence on this errand,
Mr. Mark# was assured by Gen. Arista, that nojdecla
ration of war would be made on the part of Mexico. —

Village of China on the River San Juan, }
September 23d, 1815, $
To General Z. lay lor,
Commanding the V. 8. Troops,
at Corpus Christi, Texas :
Sir—l have the honor to Inform you, thit I have
had several conferences at Monterey wrh Gen. Mari
ano Arista, Cos nmander-in-Chief of the Mexican forces
on the frontier of the Rio Grande, in relation to (he
difference* ol present existing between the United
State* and Mexico, arid I am pleased to state t > you
that from the opinions and views he made known to
me, the Cabinet of .Mexico is disposed to cuter lulu an
amicable arrangement with the United States, in rela
tion to the boundary and all other momentous ques
tions. Although I was not clothed with any official
authority. I took Upon myself a* a citizen of the I’fri
ed States, desiring to see the two countries in harmony
of friendship, to say, that it bis ever been and is the
policy and sincere wish of the government and people of
the United Stale* to cultivate the good will and fiiend
ship of the sister republic* of Ihe American continent,
and that I wai confident the United States would make
Ia liheial settlement with Mexico relative to the bound
ary question.
As General Aiista woe under the impression that I
was a secret ogent of the United Ntates, tiiough I de
clared to him quire contrary, and that I waionly act
ing as a private individual, endeavoring to avoid a re
course to arm* between the two countries, lie neverthe
less thought it advisable t send a minute of our con.
ferencea to his government, and assured me that there
will he no declaration of war on the part of Mextco,
until f can proceed on to Washington ami lay l>e!ore
the President the views of Mextco, of which I uui (Mas
ses seJ.
General Arista pledged hi* honor to me that no large
body of Mexican troop* should crons the left bank of
the Rio Grande ; that only small parties not to exceed
200 men should be permitted to go *• fir a the Arroya
! Colorado (20 leagues from the Rio Grande) and that
they would be strictly ordered only to prevent Indian
depredations and illicit trade. I then had no hesitation
in fssuring him th it you would not Commit my a£*gres
sivc act ttgams* Mexico, or her citizens, and that you
would s ilelv maintain ihe position you at present main
lain the position you at present occupy at cr near the
Nueces River. I trust in hiving made thisasaurance
to him. though, I agdi > repeat I did it as a private citi
zen of the United States, it will meet with your appro*
bation and be adhered to, as in a great measure, petre
depends on your prudent movements in this particular.
Gen. Ari>t, spoke also of Indian incursions on the
frontier of the Riw Giaude, and is under the impression
that they coutd he presented by the troopk under your
command, as the Indians always come from the .Nue
ces River, I expressed my profound repret at the fre
quent atrocious a< ts of the Indians, and said that you
would, no doubt, in future, use all endeavours to pre
vent them, an the United Slates waa bound by the
treaty of April, 1831, to prevent them ah fir as po>si
ble. He supuested lh.il if you would station a body
of cavalry t the pa-s of Sin Salas, (head quarters ot
ihe Nue<es,) through which mountain pass they inva
riably proceed to the Rio Grande, it would effectually
cheek them.
I shall leave this village to-morrow for Matamoros
to which port I hhall arrive in three days, from thence
I will embark in ihe first vessel for the United States,
proceeding immediately or. to Washington, to lav be
fore ihe Piesident the information and views of Mexi
co, which I am possessed of; in the mean time, should
vou decree this note of sufficient importance, I tru*t
that you will transmit a copy of it by express to the
Government, as by timely information much good may
result therefrom.
I he; to congratulate you that the door is opened to
an amicable adjustment ot the vexatious questions be*
tween the United States arid Mexico, and feel happy
in having been instrumental in t:>is great and good ob
ject. 1 am, with great respect, Sir,
Your obedient servant,

Then follows another letter of .Vlr. .Marks to Mr. Bu
chanan, dated New Orleans, Oct. 29, 1343, in which
he *ay he enclose* a copy ol the above to him.
Here then is another link in the chain of evidence
to show that information of vital importance was in
possession of the President which was not communi
cated to Congress, the publication of which has been
suppressed to this day. To look at the matter under
1 piesei.l aspect, ii would appear tbai a resort to arms
could easily hiv* been avoided without the least com
promise of national honor. What will liie country
say of Ihe conduct of 1(8 tulcrs, when all this corres
pondence sees the light 1 We await with impatience
further developments.
From Hie Baltimore American.
The Puosecction of the V\ ar,— VV e have inti
rr.a ions once more from the Government paper that
the war is to be carried on with vigour. The financi
al measures, however, which are lo supply the requi
site means, are not yet announced. VV lien an ade
quate system of taxation lor war purposes, on a large
scale, shall have received tire sanction ot Coegress, n
may be concluded that something is really t be done.
Tne alternative w■ >let) is left the Pieeident by the
Bill reported from the Committee of Ways and Means
on Monday evening, appropriating 23.000,000 —wc
mean ihe alternative of issuing Treasury noies to Unit
amount, al his option, seems to imply tne b lit for ap
prehension that the measures of taxation necessary to
form the ba-is of a loan wiil not he adopted. This in
ference is clearly duducible.
Such a rt sort to Treasury Notes, end to such an a
mount, bearing the eviJ.-nce of national discredit 00
the very face of it, must strike the mn and at once as a
financial subterfuge as unworthy of the occasion asil is
inadequate to it. The expedient w ill amount to a con
fession that the Government is unable lo negotiate a
loan.
Bui the Treasury notes are to bear six per cent in
terest, und miy be funded. The device then is simp
ly 10 borrow money indirectly, and 10 h ave to a future
Congress the responsibilry which this Congress
shrinks from the responsibility of laying tuxes to pay j
the interest on what will then he anew national debt. |
Th depreciation of the notes and of the slock formed |
out of them, und for winch no provision is made, will !
significantly mark the wisdom of this financial opera-j
lion. But we turn from this subject to give the latest 1
exhortation from the o flic nr? paper. The Union says : J
We are in the midst of a foreign w.ir. livery patri
ot must now see the necessity of fighting it out. San
ta Anna assumes lo speak a language, in the two let
! ters he has addressed to General Taylor, which would
i leave no hope of an 1 mined hale peace. We imisi with-
I draw our troops from the soil of Mexico, und every
vessel from her woteis, before lie would consent to
’ listen to negotiation ! It he speaks, us many believe,
the purposes of the Congress of Mexico ; if they repeat
his insolent demands, wo must b • prepared lo pul I >*th
’ all our strength, ami make this obstinate and infatua
ted people feel the full force of our arms.
Our own Congress must now suppoit the stand
which 1 hey took in .May lust. They cannot hesitate to
furnish the amplest supplies of men arid money lo pros
ecute the war with tremendous effect. The House f
Representatives have this day passed the bill for raiding
ten regiments of regular troops. The Committee on
Finance will in the course of adv or two, as we uu
dcrdaQ'J. report a hill for raising a loan ol iwenly-odJ
millions of dollars; and we will not lor one moment
permit ours.-lvas to believe that they will not report an
! tfti ’ienl bill for raising addition*! revenue to facilitate
; .he loan.
An Aineii an Congress will nevei refuse to lend the
means of carrying on a war on which the rights and
honor of their country o essentially depend. ‘These
means being provided, the executive will be able to
prosecute the war with the vigor which isnecessaij to
‘•avenge the national wrongs,” and to secure an hon
orable peace.
Money Mailers.-—The Now York Express of Mon
day aav * :
There is a great deal of mi-trust manifested by cap
italists, tide, at the course that Government have and
are pursuing, and some of ihe moU prominent deeply
reg el that they were subscribers to the late loan. —
They £*td a* if they had been duped and sadly deceiv
ed. When Mr. Walker was here, he stated that no
more tioopx would he waule I, or sent, nnd that ihe
Mexican War would be at an end in six weeks. ‘I he
moment the bids were closed, a call was instantly made
for five additional regiments of Volunteers, end instead
of a prospect of peace, a contioumee of the war ap
pears to he inevitable. In addition to all this, theie
seem* to he an utter want of confidence, both in and
out of Congress, in the ability ol t ie Administration,
to carry on tin* war. Mr. Walker told the monied
men hi re, that the receipts f ihe Government we e
much lager, and the expenditure- much •miller than
had been anticipate I. Now it turns out that the reverse
is the c *e. The Government, so far, show no dispo
sition to impose taxes, but are anxious to contract
loans, and to borrow to pay both principal and inter
est. With the Hub-Tieasnry staling the bank* in the
face, a diminished income and increasing expence*,
capitalists have hecoin * alarmed; so much h>, that if a
Twenty Million wore offered, no person hero believe*
that it would be filled, at all, or if taken, that over nine
ty |>er cent, would he obtained. Capitalist* have rxt
forgotten the last wur, when stocks were down lion*
par to suty-eight, and when thousand* were ruined by
the full. Indeed, so depressed weiv the stock*, that a
new loan could not he made, and the Government were
compelled to ij*sue Treasury notes for all their indebt
edness, and it will bo in the present case; if the
! continues a year longer, Treasury notes will be the on
ly resort of the Government

The proceedings of Congress have been again inter

He wa* atnui forty-five years old, and apparently, un

Tha loan bill reported by Mr. McKiy, last evening,

The Secretary of the Treasury is to ia>ue Treasury j
notes, in such sums arid at such times as he may see
fit, to an extent not exceeding twenty-three millions,
arid of fifty dollars and upwards. The note* are to
bear a rate of interest not exceeding six per cent, and
to he redeemed in one or two yeais from date, or at
the option of the holder, to bo funded at any lime in a
six per i cnt. stock.
The Secretary may pledge the notes as security for
a loan, or m iy instead of issuing the amount of twen
ty-three millions in ooles, obtain a loan ol tix per cent
for hall the amount.
The Treasury notea heretofore issued may he ex
changed for certificates of United Glares stock bearing
six per cent, interest, and redeemable in twenty year-.
The payment of the interest is secured by a pledge of
ilie public lands, and the annual proceeds of their sale.
The bill will probably answer its purposes and raise
the price of stock in the market.

11l Conduct op the War.— We copy from the

“ The folly from which the country suffered *o much
during the last war, of directing the operations of a dis
tant army Irom a parlor m vi a-hing on, it I- feared,
will be repealed again and again, until our arms are
defeated and our country disgraetd. The present dis

doubted that with the aid of lidiculousiy in.iccu'ule
maps and ignorant advisers he could plan a campaign
with the skill of a Washington, and thus from the mo
ment our army landed on the shelly shore of Corpus

“Aid axd Comfout.” —A Whig member of the Il
linois Legislature, conceiving it to be his duty to “aid
and comfort” the locufocos, particularly in their pres
ent dilemma, recently introduced the fo.lowing resolu
tions into that body :
•• Resolved by the Genera! Assembly of the State of
Illinois, That we heartily approve ol the message of
Honorable Ja res K. Hoik, President o( the United
States, vetoing (he bill passed at the last session ol the
Congress of the United States, making appropriations
for the imp vetuent lor Rivera and Umbor*.
“Resolved further , That the course of die President
of the United Statej in compromising the Oregon con
troversy, and fixing the hue of boundary on the lortv
ninth degree, after asserting thit our tide up to fifty
four degrees and forty minutes was * cleat and unques
tionable,” meets the entire approbation of the General
Assembly of the Slate of Illinois.”
This applause of two of the main arts of Mr. Polk s
.administration, operated like a fiieh and thrown into
the miJst ol the ••faithful”—they immediately adjourn
ed, and at the next meeting hid them on the table !

Federal Relations.—A member of the lowa
Legislature was highly indignant at the Speaker of the
House when hr announced him a member ot the com
mittee on “Federal Relation*.” Hr considered it a
rank, biting insult. “Look here, Mr. Speaker,” said
he, “none of your tricks upon travellers. You need nt
think because I am anew member, you can run your
upon me. 1 a:n not as green a* you suppose.—

[From the New York Express.]
The President tells us in in his Extra Message that
he does not approve some things in Gen. Kearney s
doings, and as an excuve. we presume, for the approv
al he gave in his opening message, he says :
“ This (Gen. Kearney’s) document, (estib'iabmg a
government) was received at the War Depart oent in
the latter part of the last month, and, a* will l>e seen
by tbe report of the Secretary ot W ar, was not, for the
reason stated by lltul officer, brought to my notice un
til alter my Annual Mes-age of the Bih inst. was cum
muniCdted to Congress.”
We ure bound lo believe so august a personage a*
the Chief M igi.-irale oft great Republic ; but here it
is difficult to be so credulous.
The substdiice of this document was published in a
Pittsburg paper, thirty day* or more before Congress
met, aud was copied by us, but we could hardly believe
it, and so express! and a doutrt. Thu 4° CU:m ' ll arrested
the attention of ihe while country, rave M*. Polk!
Not being officiary received in Washington till the
last of November, he uU.nt did not hear of it, uniil De
cember Bth ! W e are bound to believe him —ol course!
The Secretary of War,in his letter to Mr. Polk.sdys,
that he was so busy that he had not lime to look the
long document over. Remarkable oversight in high
functionaries, of the gravest ma’ tors of state ! Ihe
Secretary hid ample time lo study, and lo elaborate in
his report upon kindred proceedings in California, but
he had uo tune lo s* e what the Commander-m-Chief
in New Mexico was at! Crcdul Judaeus upptlla ,

This wjnt of time on the part nf the Secretary of

can, in Washington, keep a record of them. Alexan

Army and Navy m Upper and Lowci California, and
who summarily annexes them to the U. ! Hots Mr.

haa been the olfspiiog of a patriotic rh sire In gii-e to
the inhabitants the privileges and immunities so cher

calculated to improve their condition and promote
their prosperity. ”
This kindness of ours does not seem lo he at all ap

know that the Cartouch Uox is always the premonito

Iludinage aside, however, is it to ho wondered at
that n people who speak (he fSpaniah Language, anil

“Oar Army in Campa gn. —ln the synopsis we
g ive of the army in the field m the last “Union,” ive
fluted lust the loice under Gen. Taylor was 18,332 ;
which, without some explanation, may induce errone
ous impressions upon the minds of some of our read
ers. The accompanying remarks, found in the report
of the Adjutant General to the Secretary of V\ ar, ex
plain* the matter, from which it is seen that a portion
of this lorce had not reached the Kin Giunde, but was
tn route, and uuder orders; while a pail that were
present hud been suddenly withdrawn and sent to
Tampico.
•*lt is also proper to remark, that a great portion of
this fore* occupies an immense line of defence, from
Graz >s Santiago, to Caumgo, on the Rio Grande;
thence 170 miles to Monteiey ; and to Saltillo, 65
milts beyond, &c. We -hould, moreover. lemaik,
that th z luck are includ- and in the computation; hut in
what proportion, we undeisUnd, is not 0.. daily known
at ibis time.
“V\e take great pleasure in stating, on information
derived from the Adjutant General of the Amy, that
ihe state of the public service along the seacoasl has
recently permitted the transfer of neady every field-of
ficer of Artillery to the seat id war. That excellent of
licer, Col. Bankhead, oft e 2d regiment, having been
j permitted, at his solicitation, tit give up his important
j command in the haibor of New Vink, is now. vo be
| lieve, on his way for the army in Mexico. Instead of j
, one field-officer of artillery, as reported m July, there j
i will n >w be seven on the arrival of Col. Bankhead. ]
The five now present are Col. Gates. Lieut. Col. Ben- !
ton, 3d Regional!, at Tampico; Maj. Whiting, Ist
Regiment; Maj Gardener. 4th Region nt; and M jor
Monroe, 2d R gmieni. We are happy to learn that
Col. Payne has recovered from his wounds, and is tn
route for the army.
“In the documents accompanying the Secretary of
War’s report to Congress, we notice that two of the
invalid fi id officers, who were repoiteJlin July unable
to jon tbeir regiments,. h ave since died—toe gallant
iiievet Col. Fanning, of the Artillery, ut Cincinnati

we learn, contracted hi the public service.

with remarkable activity at Fo t M nror ; and on him
devolves the despatching of the Virginia Regiment,

still commands at Detroit, where he efficiently dischar
ges the duties which devolve on him as commander of
the 4.h military department.
We take pleasure in giving these details (received i
through the politeness of the Adjutant Gem ral) res
pecting some of our veteran officers and soiJmrs of the

lake the field, yet, all we see, are as advantageously
and honorably employed in the fine of their profession,
and on duties important to die service.

East India Cot ton. Daring the pawl yoar nn es
: fort has been made, by English tvrjura, lo show that
the prospect of Cast India Cotton has been gradually
i brightening, and that toe increasing supply from the
! East wa* likely to in erfeie seriously with the cotton
trade in America We have always observed, howev
er, that the writei* alluded to were extiemely banen
of statistics, seldom going into details, nevrr giving any
, tabular views of the Erst India cotton trade during
past yens, and only dealing in vague generalities.—
One of die Englfcti revie.vers, some time ago, while
discussing bis subj -ct, spoke of the rapid advance of
the cotton trade in India as a powerful argument in
support ol the construction oi Kill KimcT throughout
linidosltn. II * declared that Kail Road* li id become
absolutely necessary there, lo convey to market the in
creased quantities of cotton. English writers have
talked much of late, about the prospect of England’s
being, ut s me fuiue day not far dial nil, independent
of the Amvr can Cotton market, and of th** East being
soon able l furnish all her own Cotton. Bui, in truth,
East India Cotton, so farfvom having been of late years
and now on the in * rente, has actually been on the de
crease. The f llowißg ti le is given by Prof. C. F.
M’C.iy, of ihe Umvetsity “f Georgia, in an elaborate
article published in the December number of Hunt’s
Merchant*’ M iguzine, on the state of the'Cotton trade
ih oughout die world. ‘The table gives the amount of
Cotton imported Lorn India during the last six years,
as follows -
1811 , 275000 bale*. | 1814, 228,000 biles.
! i ß |2* 255.000 “ j 1845. 155 000 “
- 1843. 182,000 “ j 1845, *20.000 “
If this i* what English wue'9 mean by an advance
of the growth of Cotton in India, then we understand
them, professor M Cav remarks, that this diminution
in the rn° unl of Cation im|oitd l orn India into Eu
rope of lat years may he attributed, in pan, to a great
er amount of the East India Cotton having gone the
oiher way 10 China, in consequence ol ihe Chinese war;
bot here vv l think him in error, for the following, from
t ic Bombay Tun. s, shows dial t e trade in Cotton be
; tween \Ve**‘* ru India and China ami Singapore. h.*g
! been, up to ihe present Hint*, on the decline. The a
m unt ofColUm imported to China and Singapore Irom
Bombay, wa* ati follow**:
1843. 165 093 bales. | 1846, 134.824 bales.
1844. 120 149 “ | 1840, 118,240 “
‘phii shows a decline of the trade in Cos lon between
H inclusion and China, and tins decline is a subject of
which, in India, there has long been complaint, and
during the very lime that writers in England have been
’ declaiming about the b ightemng prospect of India Cot
ton. “We l.nve so often beloie,” says the Bombay
‘runes, “c.xpressed our opinion that the cotton Fade of
Western India w ns undergoing a iapid ex unction, (bit
we have hesitated boring our readers with the subject
! again.” but add*, that the table (which we have given
above) sets “the oc* line in such a serious point of view,
1 that we do not hesitate again call ng tilentiou lo h
question of such vital importance.
A vi w of Bombay and Canton trudo in Cotton, til
j so shows a decline, instead of an increase, as Profeeror
M*Cay suppose*. Th* amount from Bombay to Can
i ton has been *n follow* :
1843, 231,510 hales | 1815, 183,719 bales.
; 1914, 229,123 “
The cotton trade of \\ est< rn India with England
j has also been on a rapid decline, a* appear* Irom ihe
i foil using table, which con fi tins the lir*t IsH ■ given a
j hove in this arlicit*. The amount Irom Bombay to
Enuland hn* also been as follow* :
I 1843, 133.965 bales. I 1815, 47 931 bales.
18 44, 178 226 “ | 1846. 28.G49 “
Nor docs it appear from an inspection ol the above
tables, that, us Prof. M’Kiy has supposed, when a
greater amount went to China a less amount went to
England ; but it is evident that a decline has been both
of the amount to England and to China ; thu* proving
that the India cotton trade is declining with all parts
of the world. The Bombay Times says: “Our cot
ton exports to Eogluiid must soon be an entire blank,
while looking even to those of China our prospe* ts tre
not much more encouraging. The trade is one of de
cline, and every one engaged in it is in a stale ni dis
tress. Unless something is soon done, it requites no
prophetic vision to foresee, that in the course of a few
years more, we shall have to writo of it as a thing that
has ceased to exist. A reduction in the Government
land tax alone ran save it; and we would entreat the
consideration of the authorities to this nutter, upon
’ which the weWare of so many dependr,”
Tliectute assigned fut this calamiton* state of thing*
is this: “Cheap British manufactures, produced ftom
cheap American cotton, are destroying our trade.”

forthwith. It is t> be built for cash and ‘ohe complet

says there is “no mistake .” and Authorizes >s to an
