reached General Taylor-ihe officer in com

on " ednesday, two regiments of infantry were
to leave on steamboats, for this city, while the
Cd regiment of moGated Dragons, under The
command of Col. Twiggs. was to strike across
through Texas. The Infantry will probably
reach this city to-day or tomorrow, where
they will remain until transports can be en-

The opinion no doubt prevails there. that she

view is entertained by Governor Shannon,

oflinle importance, comparatively speaking -
Bot who can tell the consequences likely TO

recily and may endeavor TO avoid such inter-

many questions cf interest and difficulty are

a spark calculated to lead 10 the serious fame

probabilities, that the decision of Mexico will
