FURTHER FROM MEXICO.

The Baltimore Republican oil Tuesday evening
contains letter from Pensacola Of August 3lst,
received BY U. S ship Saratoga, which says:
"Consress has authorized The Exccutiret to Dor
row fifteen millions ofdollars, and 10 raise twenty
FIVE thousand troops The policy olthc Mexican
government has undergone a change: Ihey
cease 10 sneak of the United States rs the party
with whom they areto wage war, and have taken
The ground that they are arrayed only against
their revolted province Of Texas, which is 10 be
,nbiued al once. This they have to effect by
sudden and vigorous invasion, before sufficient
force can be opposed TO them. For This purpose,
General Paroles has marched Ia Alatamoras, on
The Rio del Nolie, with eight thousand men -
They arc cquippns their Navy, ana increasing
The number Of their boats. Troops have
neon cen, "a Tampico in the steamer MonleZuma.
Mexico is convinced that England has persuaded
her lo,akc a false strp, in Offering TO acknowl,
edce The INDEPENDENCE of Texas: and that no aid
i 10 be expected from that quarter. The Sara
tooa exchanged saluies with Vera Cruz, and

though The newspapers continued TO be abusive.
The writer does not vouch for The truth OF this
intelligence, but only for the direciness oil he
channel through which il comes. lie is induced
by manv circumstances 10 doubt the important
paus Of il, such as Paroles army, &c.
Strange. this writer announces that Almon.e IS
The new Secretary Of War, and expects 10 be Sc
cre,ary of State This must be IN error, as all
Tho olher accounts represent Pedro Arcaya as The
Minister of War.
The Union Of Tuesday night gives the follow
inc official papers received BY the Saratoga at
The Navy Department The conduct Of Mexico
is covered with mystery and no one can predict
uba, another turn Of the cards may exhibit. We
may exrect, at the next arrival, 10 hearof strange
events al The Mexican Capital. The exchange
of civil,ies with our United States vessels, and
the bipled disposition 10 resume negotiation WIN

new Government will see The folly OF invading
Texas and in order to concentrate all its power
and attention al home, will consent 10 arrange all
her difficulties with us upon permanent and no.
norable footing. This is all our Government de-
s;rea-no,hug else, We are sure will they submit
