From the PiHSbWg Gazette.
Mr.. CLAY INDICATED.

The Post has lately dwclt with much apparent
satisfaction, on some resolutions and remarks of
Mr.. Clay, in relation to nd rdLorem duties. Mr.
Bigler doubtless thought he had found an admi-
rabc means of cvading the obliquy of the OBJ
noXious nd rdiOrem principle of Mr.. Mckay
Bill. This charge has been made in other
quarters, and in Mr. Webstors late speech it is
referred to as follows:
"Mr. President, | now proceed to that branch
ortho subject to which proposed first to call the
attention of the Senate. The proposition of this
bill is to collect all duties and customs by uni
versal ad valorem assessment-not an equal as
.sessmont, but system of ad valorem duties en-
drey. Now that has not been the practice of
the government at any time since its organiza-
ton. In every administration from that of
Washington, down so far as have known, a
contrary system has always prevailed. And the
desire of those who have formed and admins
tered the laws in this respect has been to carry
the principles ofspecifc duties as far and as fast
as circumstances allowed. That | take to be
the policy of the government from the first, and
it has been the sentiment of all connected with
the government so far as know. | ought per-
haps to make an apology or an exception in the
case of Mr., Clay. said here the other day,
that had never heard public man advocate
system of ad valorem duties. The newspapers
say-perhaps very correctly, that was mistaken
that Mr.. Clay had made remarks iavorably TO
that in 1912. | was not in the Senate then,
and did not know that such sentiments were
expressed by him; and if they were correctly
reported ! am very sorry that such sentiments
were expressed by him.
Mr.. Crittenden here said-wil the Senator
pardon me while interrupt him for moment
in order to offer an explanation. Mr.. Clay's
remarks had reference solely TO home valua-
ton.
Mr.. Webster proceeded-Ah that explains
the whole matter. Well, it is Il great relief to
my mind. am very much obliged to the hon
orabe Senator Mr.. Clay's proposition then
was-''if you will bring the article here and
value it here independent of the foreign invoice,
why then will take that system of valuation"
Well, that and this are as wide as the poles
apart. That qualification ofthe principle makes
it sensible, perhaps safe. A home valuation by
judges of our own appointed here, is one thing
but valuation founded on foreign envoices and
the allegations of foreign costs and foreign oaths
are another, and quite different thing. | am
glad to find, therefore; that Mr. Clay $ authority

ARRIVAL OF THE HIBERNIA.

The steamer Ilibernia, with news from Liver
pool to the 18th ult, was telegraphed at an early
hour this morning, and has since arrived at the
wharf. She brings the Oregon treaty ratified by
the British Governmentunder the seal Of the new
Secretary, Lord Palmerston. Thisdocumentwas
signed by his Lordship and Mr.. Mclean on the
l7h ut., al the Foreign Office, and afterwards con.
yeyed by express for despatch by the Hibernia, by
his Excellency Mr.. McLane, Minister to England.
Notices of the ratification was given in both
Houses of Parliament, on the 18th.
The new Ministry had got to work, and the bus
mess Of the country is again in state Of progress
sion. All the members have been returned in the
opposition except Mr.. McCauley, and Lord Ev.
ington. In every quarter a disposition exists TO
give the new Ministry fair trial.
In consequence of the excitement now past the
country needs repose, and with the exception of
sugar duties there is no permanent question likely
to embarrass the Ministry or test their capability
The affairs of this session of Parliament will be
wound up, probably, by the middle of August.
The French papers, without distinction of par
ty, are busiy engaged in discussing questions ar-
sing out of the war between the United States

satisfy it. "Let not the Presidents signature to
the bill be dry" exclaims Mr.. Webster, "before
the camor is sounded; let not day pass before
the people assemble to proclaim their sense of
wrong and their resolution to right that wrong.
Let this pernlclous measure be exposed, followed,
fastened upon, dragged into full light, and doom.

MENlCN.

The New Orleans editors have dates from the
city of Mexico to the eth ulGmo, and from We.
ra Cruz TO tho 3Oth.
Important events hadoccurredin in Mexico during
the interval. On the meeting of Congress, 10Th
ut., deciuo was passed, stating the manner in
whiChlhe Executive branch of government should
be organised. 1t was resolved that a President
and Vice President should be elected by Congress
Professionally, by Il plurality of votes. On the
l2th, the election took place, when Paredes was
the successful candidate, obtaining SO among 83
votes. Gen. Bravo received l3 and Herrera 7
votes for President. Bravo was then elected Vice
President by u vote of 48 out of 82-Don Luis
q. Cuevas, the next highest only receiving II
votes Paredes was to leave Immediately TO take
command OF the army operating against the A.
mercans, having obtained leave of Congress on
the 18th ult Bravo administers the affairs OF
government, during his absence. Arista was ia
be tried for reueating from Matumoras, when he
had four thousand men under his command. Am.
puda and he had been both recalled and of course
deprived of their commands.
Paredes, in his inaugural speech, anmadyorts
with force on the unmeasured wrongs inflicted by
the United States on Mexico and adlures the Con.
grcss to assist by granting all necessary supplies
&c, &C., in defence of the country. The Pres.
idont, Gonzaga Gordoa, in reply, stated that eve.
| ry thing must now be subservent to the task
of ayenging the insuIted honor and dignity of tn,
country, and the work of expeling the invader,
from the soil.

LATE FROM THE ARMY.

We are under obligations to the officers of the
steamer South America, in yesterday morning,
Tor New Orleans papers of the 24th and 25th ut.
The South America left New Orleans on the 25th,
al O'Clock, p. NJ, and reached the landing YES
terday at II A. NJ. We copy the following from
the New Orleans Pcayune of the 25th:
The steamship Fashion, Capt. Fullerton, arr-
we'd late last evening from Brazos Santiago. We
have not received our letters by this arrival, but
we learn verbally that there is a general move
ment Of the troops up the Rio Grande. General
Taylor was still at Matamoras, but he was send
ing forward the recruits as fast as his means of
transportation would permit him to do so.
Adylces had arrived of the taking of the town
of Camargo. Six companies of the 7hregiment
entered that place day or two before the FASH
ION sailed, without firing gun. These compa-
mes were under the command of Capt Whiting
and others. When the United States troops arri-
we'd at Camargo, Col. Carrajabal was on the op-
pose side of the ST. Juan river. He witnessed
the entrance of the troops into the town, but of
lered no resistance.
Gen. Taylor had received reports from recon-
nolsance parties, who reported only three hum
dred troops at Monterey. The general impress
sion in the army was that there would be no re-
sstance offered to the American force this side of
that city. No preparations for an attack of the
town were made.
The absence of every thing that indicated re-
slstance on the part of the enemy had led to the
belief in the army, that the war was at an end
The impression was that negotiations for peace
were on foot. There was no otherway Of account
ing for the apparent supneness of the Mexicans.
Reports had reached thecamp that Paredes was
afraid to leave the city of Mexco-his presence
there being necessary to keep down threatened
revolution.
Occasional broils between the Mexicans and
Texan volunteers occurred. The regular SOL
diers eXerted every means for the projection of
the citizens, who were promised security and sup.
port in case they conduct themselves in a peace
tul and inoffensve manner.
There was a rumor in camp that Mr.. Lumsden
and his party had been intercepted and cut off by
Indians. The report was not generally credited.
The volunteers were suffering from diarrhoea.
but otherwise were well.
The Fashion left Brazos Santiago last Tuesday
and experienced heavy weather on the trip. The
Sea, which left eighteen hours before the Fashion
has not yet arrived.-CinciHnaH Gazette.

FROM NEW ORLEANS.

We are indebted to the gentlemanly officers OF
the jamestown for New Orleans papers of the
22d ult. The news is not important. The New
Orleans Bee states the situation Of the army in
Mexico thus:
cat the Brazos are the Alabama and Baltimore
regiments, and Immediately opposite, on the Point
the Texan regiment of infantry. AT Burrita is
Featherstons regiment of Louisiana volunteers;
quarter of mile above, the Louisiana Legion and
four detached companies Of Alabama volunteers;
quarter Of mile further up you come to Peyton's
Louisiana volunteers and st. Louis Legion, and
three miles above Burrilathe Tennessee regiment,
being all the troops below this place. AT Mata-
moras, below the ferry, are the 9th infantry and
the regular artillery-lorming brigade; the Sd
and 4th infantry are below Fort Paredes, above
the town on the river; the 9th above the same
fort. Nineteen miles by land and fifty by water,
the Washington, Jackson, and Dakin's regiments
Louisiana volunteers, with Gen. Desha's Alaba-
ma command, are encamped. At Reinosa, the
lst regular infantry are posted, and the 7th are at
or near Camargo. 1t is almost impossible to give
you the position of the Dragons or Rangers, for
they are always moving from one place TO anoth-
er. The last heard Of the dragons, two davs
ago, most OF them were near Palo Alto, leaving
one company for service below the Sd and 4th in
iantry. The cavalry from eastern Texas were
near the Point, and several transient companies
of middle Texas were between them and the Rio
Grande, at an old rancho. Capt. McCullough's
Rangers are on a scout towards Monterey; Capt
Wells (late Walker's,) are in or about the city;
Capt. Bells, from Corpus Christi, do; Capt
Price has disbanded; General Burleson is on the
other side of the river, with few men, on his
own hook-as also General Lamar. There are
a number of Texas companies somewhere about
but cannot tell you the precise place they oCcu-

SANTA ANNA,

The ex-Prosident, it seems, has renounced his
project of descent on Mexico, in consequence
OF the reaction which has taken place at Guada.
lajara. The revolution at Jasco, it seems, was
premature event, since General Pacheco has put
itdown with such facility, and proves that Santa
Anna's partisans are neither so numerous, nor SO
influential, as it was at first supposed they were
lie must now return to his old occupations and
amuscments in exile, and wait patiently another
change in the complexion of political affairs in
Mexico, before running the risk of the fate of
Augustn lturbide. We learn that so confident
y did he anticipate success, that he sold off his
furniture, gave up his house, disposed of his
game-cocks, objects Of particular regard to him,
&C., d., and was positively going to Vera Cruz
by the steamer Clyde. Another feature in Mex
lean affairs, which to Santa Anna stands out in
unpleasant relief, is the election Of General Bra
yo to the Vice Presidency. They are antagonis.
tic, as regards ideas of government, and one can
not expect to flourish, while the others star is in
