FROM MEXICO.
Correspondence of theNo.th American.
r
WASHINGTON Dec. 18, 1846. j
6 o'clock, P. M. S
The Southern mail due yesterday
afternoon, arrived this morning. The
New Orleans Picayune has received city
of Mexico papers to the 17th ult., two;
weeks later than the previous advices.
The papers contain the correspondence
of Generals Taylor and Santa Anna rel
ative to the•terinination of the armistice.
.Public attention is very much engrossed
with the preparations for the meeting of
Congress.
. . .
The official paper says that the Exec
utive is anxious for the assembling of
Congress even before the time prescri
bed by law, in consequence of the urgent
nature of thei subjects which are to be
brought up for consideration. The first
in importance, are stated to be the events
of the war with the United States, the
necessity of great resources to sustain
it, and some other points relative to this
important :business. The papers arc
filled with official communications from
n
the ninbrent States assuring the govern
ment of public tranquility. There is
no indication of Almonte leaving the
war department, and a great variety of
orders are published emanating from
him.
In an urgent appeal to the new Con
gress made from San Luis, the deputies
are entreated to entrust Santa Anna with
the Dictatorial power for the prosecution
of the war. There is nothing definite
from the army concentrated at San Luis,
and no mention is made of the dissen
sions which were said to exist in Santa
Anna's ranks. He had directed that the
capitol should be fortified with energy,
and a considerable number of troops
were arriving for the defence of the
city. Senor Villamill had been appoint
ed minister of finances and took the
oath of office on the 17th. The tone of
the)Mexican papers is less arrogant to
wards the United States.
In the correspondence between Gen
eral Taylor and Santa Anna, terminating
the armistice, the latter complains of
bad faith, but says he is ready to meet
him on the field of battle. Gen. Taylor
asks the release of the American pris
oners sent into the interior, on the
ground that all the Mexican prisoners
had b6en set at liberty. Santa Anna
says in his reply that the generosity of
General Taylor had been responded to
in the same spirit, all the prisoners at
that post (San Luis) seven in number,
havinglbeea released, and furnished with
seventy dollars to procure sustenance
upon the road. Santa Anna says, "From
the spirit and decision manifested by all
Mexicans, you should banish all idea of
peace while a single North American in
arms treads upon the soil of the Repub
lic aqd there remains in front of its
ports the squadrons which make war
upon them ;" he adds, however, that it
will remain with the Mexican Congress
to determine.
IRON.
The U. S. Gazette says We had
occasion, yesterday, to notice the fol
lowing occurrence, which took place on
the wharf. at the foot of Walnut street.
Some thirty-five tons of ENGLISH IRON,
landed from the ship Champlain, Capt.
Miller, from Liverpool, was being deliv
ered under the inspection of an United
States Government Deputy Weigh mas
ter.
Each and every bar, whether large or
small, was labelled with the whole, or
part of the mark, " TARIFF OF 1846."
This label was evidently new, and, of
course, was prepared with a view of
distinguishing the iron brought into the
_country under the Tariff act of 1846,
from that brought in under the act of
184'4 As each bar is handled by the
varidus smiths of our country, this label
of " 1846," will be a fruitful source of
thought, we trust, more particularly to
those who hail from Pennsylvania,whose
"better tariff man" now governs, through
his Secretary of the Treasury, the re
ceipt of customs at the port of Phila
delphia.
A Noble Offer.
The Poqsville Democratic Press, says,
4' It is worthy of remark, and we record
Nd fact with great pleasure, as addition
' al evidence of the munificence of our
citizens;. and confidence they have in the
worth and integrity of Capt. NAGLE, that
just before he marched with his com
pany, two of our wealthy fellow-towns
men, ANDREW RUSSELL, and SAMUEL
ILLYMAN, Jr., Esqrs., authorised him
to draw on them in any emergency du-
-ring his absence, for such sum or sums
of money as he might require. Com
ment on such conduct is altogether un
necessary."
The above named gentlemen are lead
ing Wines. We mention this fact as an
offso to the low, contemptible course
pursued by the Locofoco press, in re
gard to the Whigs and the Mexican
r i , ‘ war.

ARRIVAL OF OUR TROOPS-SA
LUTE FROM THE SQUADRON
NEW WORKS IN PROGRESS
ARREST OF PEDRONA-SANTA
ANNA.
Correspondence of the Po. Inquirer.
TAmPtco, 26th Nov., 1846
I wrote you on Sunday last, 22d, and
put my letter on board of the steamboat
Neptune, which sailed the day before
yesterday, at 5 o'clock, P. M., for Bras
sos. A very heavy and unexpected
Norther came up that night, and she at
tempted to run in for the bar—went
ashore, and is now a complete wreck.—
The passengers and a considerable quan
tity of specie saved—but the letter ban
is lost, and with it, my long letter.—
But I will now hastily recapitulate.—
We sailed from Brassos on Saturday
morning, havinr , left our encampment
at Barite. on the day before. Immediate
ly on the receipt of the news of the cap
ture of Tampico, all the artillery, ammu
nition and ordnance stores which could
be collected at Brassos and Point Isabel,
were shipped for this place. The weather
—a violent norther—retarded operations
two days—but they were shipped in part
in the steamer " Sea," with Major Mor
ris and two companies, and have arri
ved safely. The rest—among them the
carriages for eight 12-pounders and am
munition, and a thousand other things,
were to follow the " Sea," (the next day
'at furthest,) in the iron steamboat
" Somers," one of two recently purchas
ed at Savannah. If she sailed, we fear
she is lost, and with her, most of the
things we immediately want, besides
Lt. Blair, 2d Artillery, twenty men and
I crew—we hope for the best ; she may
have been detained.
On our arrival hero we were highly
greeted by the squadron in the offing.—
The St. Mary's manned her yards.—
Our
band played national airs, and "God
Save" to the British brig lying off—and
to the steam packet—which last imme
diately got up steam for Anton Lizardo,
to give the news, &c. We passed one
channel of the bar at 4, P. M., (having
in vain tried another,) but not before dis
embarking nearly all the men into the
boats of the squadron. They were
landed on the South Point.
The steamer now came over beauti
fully, and at 5 o'clock, took in the five
companies, and at 7, P. M., anchored
before the city, when Col. Gates, who
had joined us, and assumed the corn
' mend the day before we left the Brazos
—and other officers, called on Corn. Con
ner. The next morning, we debarked
in launches, &c., in fine order. The
American colors—those of the Reefer,
Lt. Corn. Lewis Sterret, of Baltimore,
under a marine guard—and five com
panies commanded by Lt. Col. Belton,
formed column on the pier, with the
band and colors of the 3d Artillery, and
marched as in review around the plaza,
and took possession. We quartered
two companies in the lower story of the
custom house, and in the late Mexican
barracks. We have detached troops to
the different forts and redoubts.
Capt. Hunt's company are now enga
ged with spades and pickaxes, by moon
light, at a new work, in which two 42
pound carronades (from the navy) will
be placed to-morrow, in position, on the
main approach.
Major Morris, with two companies,
arrived in the "Sea," two days after us.
He is now with them in the main fort,
with two 18 pounders, which command
the city. We have but two companies
now in town—the rest (five) are at dif
ferent posts. Fort Libertad is now Fort
Tattnal, and Fort Andonega now Fort
Conner. We have just heard from the
Neptune. She is totally lost nothing
saved. The Mexicans, armed, were
thick on the beach. The Spitfire, steamer
went down and fired grape among them.
We had news from Potosi. Santa Anna
had arrested Pedrona, who commanded
here, and evacuated this place just one
month. We heard yesterday, that he
had 22,000 troops,' of which 7000 are
cavalry—that he meant to attack and
overwhelm Taylor. They here say he
will be beaten in anything like a general
action. To-day they say he delays his
movements, and that the " Guarda Cos
ta" of Tampico have halted 150 miles
from here. They are only 150 strong,
but good troops.
We are 300 miles from Potosi, 100
miles of which is mountain. This is a
beautiful, clean city. The upper lands
rolling and very productive, and I think
populous. The people very poor, and
plundered of every thing by their rulers.
The markets plenty, and rather reason
able considering. The cafe on the plaza
is brilliant at night.
We shall probably get more guns from
the navy, and be very strong if attacked.
The Spitfire and Vixen steamers, Bonita,
Reefer and Petrel, and prize schooners,
heavily armed, lay before and about the
town. This is the key to Mexico, and
our most important conquest. The gov
ernment and people must go ahead.
Yours, faithfully, S. L.
MR. ADAMS.—The Physicians of Ex-
President Adams declare that he is too
ill to take his seat in Congress during
the present session. He is evidently
improving, but the excitement of debate
would be too hazardous to encounter.

distinguished statesman, commands one

Regiment of Volunteers for the Mexican

[From the North American.]
A NEW DIGNITY.
The confidence inspired by the uner
ring accuracy hitherto displayed by
Independent," justifies a belief that it
is seriously contemplated to create a
new military office, second only to the
authority of the President, under the
title of Lieutenant General. The pro
position cannot fail to be regarded by
the mass of the American people with
distrust. The citizens of this republic
are averse to the creation of unneces
sary ranks and dignities, and especially
in those branches of power which, while
formidable to our enemies, may if per
verted, be fatal to ourselves. Circum
stances might exist whore such an ap
pointment would be rendered expedient,
if not necessary ; as where the country
was menaced with a war dangerous to
its existence, with a mere civilian, like
the elder Adams, in the chair, and a
chief like Washington in retirement.—
The present is no such crisis, and the
subject of proposed honor no such chief.
We can imagine no necessity for the
i movement. The duties proposed, the
settlement of the terms of peace, when
Mexico shall have been taken, are civil,
I and may be performed by a civilian as
well without as with, a towering milita
ry title. Nor can we approve this arti
ficial mode of making military heroes
for political purposes. It squints at the
policy of Mexico, where every faction
ist is a soldier ; and threatens us with
I the fate that has torn asunder and de-
I graded that unhappy country. The du-
ties of statesmen should be performed 1
by statesmen.
The liberties of the country demand
a separation of the civil and military 1
power ; and though every war, however
holy, has its unfortunate influence to 1
elevate the profession of force, and ren- 1
der the general's valor superior to the
statesman's pen, a free people should 1
with a more intense jealousy hold watch I
and ward against its encroachments.—
We disapprove therefore any unneces
sary combination or confusion of civil
and military power; and trust that Con
gress will discourage it. But if high
military titles must be created, let it be
on a just and general system that will
reward merit. If we must have an arm
ed nobility, base it, at least, upon ser
vices and worth ; and extend it to the
navy as well as the army. Give us our
Lord Hi g h Admiral as well as his High
ness the Lieutenant-General ; and let
those who have best earned the title bear
I it. If extraordinary distinction, power
and rank are to be bestowed in this war,
to whom arc they due, if not to Zachary .
I Taylor. There is, if need be, no objec
tion to uniting with him a civil commis
sioner to treat of peace, or to establish
ing a board for that purpose; but the
country will hardly sanction the appoint
ment of any Carpet Knight, however
exalted his reputation as a statesman, to
outrank old Rough and Ready.
IWe will not oppose any effort to effect
an honorable peace, and we have no dis
trust of the patriotism of Mr. Benton :
but when the terms of peace shall be
before the nation the question of terri
tory will be found to be involved; and
upon that question the people demand
to be heard. No jugglery that would
seek to shuffle that issue out of sight,
Will be endured. It is a question of life
and death to the country ; and it can
not be settled so as to determine the
destinies of the American republic, by
a cabal in a corner.

This is to certify, that I was afflicted
with a violent pain in the breast and
