The publication f old ‘Rough /uiH RenAy'tf’ letter,
in which he animadverts in wrong language, upon the.
management ol the w ar, hn given greut offence to the
Administration and its frrcmlv. No one is more compe
tent than Gen. Taylor, to form n correct opinion of the
campaign nnd ith •ct>du< t, and the. public will readily j
subscribe to the trull* of hi* statements, and the good
reasons he, has tor feeling indignant at the, treatment j
he has received from the Government. t
The Wasliington correspondent of the N. Y. Journal
of Commerce, makes (he follow wig apposite and just re
mark :
“Gen. Tnvlor stands now on impregnable ground.
Without efficient supplies, and with a small force, he
I has gained victories,\hr fame of which will endure ns
long as the waters of the Kio Grande flow into the Gulf,
j His movement to Monterey w is made wi*h ) little of
! requisite means that, had ho failed in the. ente.rpri/.e. as
i lie remarks in his letter, he would have incurred a rep
rimand, or something worse. He did it, he sovp, ‘to
serve the Administration.’ They have met the service
with a poor requital.”
This is true; lie ha 4 been illy requited for his splen
did achievements, and the inappreciable services he has
rendered the Administration; but in tlmse <lay of mor
al and political degeneracy, we are not ut all stirpiised
in the first place,that *h President ahottkl have otnitt*d
in his annual Message, to have paid him the merited
tribute of an official recognition of his invaluable servi
ces, and again, that the submissive tools of power should
h ive marie him the mark of their envious and malignant
assaults. Rut great as was the provocation funiishrd
bv their wanton and ungenerous attack, wo have on
hesitancy in saying, that the publication of the loner
was indiscreet and improper, nnd in its tendency, pro
ductive of insubordination. The letter was evidently
written in the confidence of personal friendship, nnd we
have no doubt, that the writer will condemn the act of
his (rieud us altogether unwarranted.

VICTORIA, (M xicn) 9.1 January, IfMT.
Dear Purcnta, — We airived in Victoria *>n thc*9.h
December, having been constancy on the march from
Monleiey, fioni tin* 13*h December up to that lime.
The march proved n t only fattgumg, but extremely
dangerous, in consequence of the constant pieseme
of the enemy in our immediate vicinnv.
The evening of nor mi rival at Moitt Morales, an
express arriveil from Cietieral VVditli at fSaltilio, ir
ftitnnug General Taylor that the Mexican army un
der JSanta Anna, were advancing to attack him, and
requesting reinforcement*. On the receipt of the ex
press l e Gefleial ha-tliv fbtUrned with I wiggs’s Di
vision to Saltillo, leaving General Quitman lo pur
sue the rna*ch to tin* point, a compinied eut rely bv |
the Volunteer f y rce, one small battery of ariillejy and i
no cavalry. Tin* entire foice lift will* Gen. Quitman !
barely numbering nineteen hundred and fo*ty etled- I
ive in n ; with ths small force we have succeeded in !
sjlely accomplishing a march, which to Iduk back on
seems hardly possible. At Santa Engracift, a stnali j
villaje, not far bom (In* place, the enemy hail estab
lished an opt post ot cavalry and one sin ill piece ot |
arnlleiy. As our a Vance came in sight, their resolu*
i turn I sled, and ihe commanding officer slowly niv- i
ed from the village, gs it almost ashamed to yield the
advantages his position gave him. I saw about two
hundred of their lancers as they filed through thr*
valley below uA. Haiti’ gat this village for the flight;
in the muffling the march was si* adily continued until
we arrived a Victor a. As our advance was been ap.
proaching, the enemy icltred to the mountain passes
, leading to Tula.
We now learn that Tula has been placed in a state
• of torlitL dtton undvr General Urea, his advance out j
post being within foOTteen leagues of this place, con
sisting ol fuurle. il bund ed Imrse. His entue com- j
mand vurMu-ly estimated between five sod seven 1
thousand effective men with not mu h a'tillery, most
ly the heavy mtainry <Sc lanc6f*. I ether he will at

vvili. General Ralieiaon with ixie*ti hundred men is
I advancing to lendiZ'ous will) us at this point. He \
comes diieel from Mutalnoraa and w ill hd heie id six
days. He brings with him that which we most need
:—a regiment Ot Cavalry. Il we had had any on our
, march to ihis p uce, we ftould not Imvi beeii so con
i slantly m dread of an attack or surprise frim thJ i ne

j has commiwiitatcd t > the editor* of that journal anew
! plan of operations against Mexico, which, tho writer
remarks, originated with Corn. ?KRtt. The plan ts
thus stated in a few words hy the Toat'a correspondent:
Abandon aR expensive, sanguinary and d>uhtful pro
jects of furlher invasion. fSo far as regards the nite
nor of Mexico, let us content ourselves with tlieoecuja
tion of the provinces already conquered, or *o wucli ol
them as we rmy intend to ■keep as •• indemnification’
for tho war. On the ether hand, let u lake immedi
ate possession of a l her ports, both on the <soff ami on
tlte Pacific, and occupy them as conquered territety*
till she shall comelojult ami hoti*r,ibla terms of pence, j
Optfnthfeoi all tn a free commerce, first pliinog in them
Collect'** of our own, and eHtahliehing a miiahh* tariff
ofepecifle duties hy means of which we eh-dl levy, t
from the Mexican nation itself, a revenue fully ade
quate to cover all expenses, naval end military, of such
occupation, (n region to Yucatan, which m constant
ly blowing Hot and cold between Mexico and ourselves,
compel that province *t once to its election between
(lie two. if it shall abtde by the late of the former, in
clude ns ports likewise in this system, and in ■either
ease extend a cordon of military occupation across the
isthmus which connects it with Mexico, so as to cut
off the Mexicans from supplies (chiefly of the iadi*-
pcusihle article of snlt.) which they now derive from
i the cunning and doulde dealing Yucateo*. When we
have our enemy thus shut in on all sides, let u bold
him so. like a forward child *hut up in a closet, or held
firmly and patiently by the arms, till he came# to tnu
senses, begs pardon, ami promises to he good.
The number of posts that would be occupied under the
plan a hove described is lxut eleven, namely —Mafa
mor os, Soto lu Marina, Tampico, ruxpau, Vera Uruz,
Alvarado, Gu isacoa'eo*, Tabasco, Laguna. Uutnpec! cy
and Sisal, Os t esc. Matamoros, Tampico, Tabasco
(of Fiontera) and Laguna, are already ourts. ‘Tiic*
writer goes ou to any that
The rest can easily be taken; and n*illi the support |
of the navy, as easily kept. About live thousand men
wdl serve to take and garrison the towns ; and adoz--n
small ship*, with half admen small steamers for the
coast service, armed with two heavy guns csctl, will be
all the tiaval force required. ‘This force could lie bought
lor a little more than the cost of a frigit.*, and mam
tlined on the coast at less than hall lhe expense, and
with mme than ten times tho efficiency of the preoent
squadron ih that quarter.
The editors of the Post remark that there is hut one
object full to the plan which they can perceive, ami that
is (he unheatihiness of most of the sea ports on the
Atlantic coast, of which it would be necessary to take
possession.

,\nv York Democracy on Slavery.
‘J he move of 51 r. Preston King, the Democratic lie
presentftlive IromN.York in Congress, excluding Sla
very from any territory to acquired by, or annexed
to (he Union, has been followed up by a similar move
in the New York Legislature. Col. \ ouug, a leading
Democrat lias taken the initiative and most active part
jn this proceeding.
Col. Young proposed five resolutions, by wav of
substitutes for Mr. Hall’s. One ol them is in Uie&*
words.
Keso/vcd, That if any territory is hereafter acquired
hy the United States, or annexed thereto, ihe act by
which such territoiy is acquired or annexed, whatever
such act may be, should coutain nu unalterable, funda
mental article of provision, whereby Slavery, or invol
untary servitude, except as a punishment lor crime,
shall ne PORKY HR LXCLUDLD iroui too territory
acquired or annexed.
t;ol. Young said that his three resolutions were in
tended to give notice liiul Coiigie#s wu* no* t* go on and
make the preponderance of dlave power still greater a
guinst us. I he Soi.lheru interest should be a hill • mod
est. From the cummeuceuieni of the goveniineiit Himt
interest has held the balance ofpoWer. It was nece*§a- ■
ry tiiui the North should give notice to the .South in ad- j
vance that rhev should not diive their slaves into the
new territory. If we wnhhold this notice until they j
had gone in, they would say we were harsh, lie sup- i
posed it was the unanimous feeling ot the Norm ih.it |
there should he no farther extension of cilufery. The .
rank uttd file had hut one feeling on that subject.
.Southern men boast ol their putrioiisin, hut was
tO* there a single Slaveholder to be found m the rank
(U” aud file ot ur army in Mexico ! Was then* oue in
ll,e I n st war! HK BELIEVED NOb ONE. Wehave
a riitht to say that our money shall not go to the purch
ase of territory lor the occupation of Shivery. \Ve tlo
not believe that the institution is a blessing; but re
gard it an an unmitigated curse. He. hoped the Senate
would give an unanimous expression ol their opinion.
The withdrawal of the South from tire support ol the
war would not defeat its successful prosecution. The
North alone would be able to carry it on vigorously.
Aniiosaiioßi of Mexico!
When Texas was shout to be annexed lo the Unit

Democracy, 150 acres of the ‘ rich lands of Texa*! ! !
This was just on the eve of an important Election.—
We merely mention this now, lo inquiie if they have
not got some Mexican lands appropriated for the next
Election 1 We should like to know it, merely to ap

heart vibi.iteto ail the appeals of suffering and distress.
And vet he ha-* fallen. All the kind charities and
high duties that hound him to the living* cow'd not
stay the shaft from Death’s relentless quiver, that con
signed him to a premature grave.
With him as an Odd Fellow, our aMocistion* have
been pleasant, am! marked with the highest attributes
