JUST AND PATRIOTIC SENTIMENTS.

Just and patriotic must be admitted to be the SEN
timents, touching the late Oregon controversy and
its adjustment expressed in the following answer
by Gen. GAINES to an invitation, by committee
of the citizens of Philadelphia, to celebrate the
tional anniversary with them in that city:
"Deepy impressed with the vital importance ofheary
among all pares in whatever the awful question of
peace have been most happy since the beginning of
last month (hough for the part of the time in state of
duress find that the wise and puIes Of all PARTIES
known to in the South and West well in the North
and East eeny rejoice at the late signal triumph the
evil spirit of war, the maintenance Of peace highly hon
orable the nations of the world only capable
of doing each other the greatest possible HARM but also the
capable and who ought stand foremost in the essential
work, of giving civilization and selfgovement to every part
of the human family approachabe by steam power
"f governed alone by the prospect Of acquiring military
glory, would delight more in against England than
any other naon because England though not vune
able is endowed with degree of military and naval character
sufficient to give the highest value to every triumph could
win her by land by water But the most brilliant
trophies of victory and the highest possible degree Of military

SATURDAY, JULY III, 1916.
THE TARIFF BILL IN THE SENATE.

Quite unexpectedly in the present stage Of the
business the New Tariff Bill became on its first APP
pearance in the Senate, on Monday, the subject of
rise TO the debate was a-motion TO dispense with
the reference Of the bill to the Standing ComMllee
of the Senatsupon the Ways and Means, and to
make it the Order of the Day, without that hitherto
invariable previous examination, for Monday next.
This motion prevailed by majority Oft votes.
The number of Members voting was forty-six,
ten Members being absent or having paired off
with actu11 absentees OF the ten not present or
not voting, Six believed to be favorable TO the
protective principle, and four to be opposed to it.
All the Senators being present, therefore, if this i'm
preston be correct the Senate will be equally
divided upon the principle Of the bill.
Though the whole debate was interesting enough,
the incident Of the Speech by Mr.. NILES, who has
shown new vigor since his recovery from his late
illness, produced perhaps more sensation than any
other. He spoke, we understand, in favor of the
reference to the Standing Committee. That course,
he said, was due to the importance of the subject,
to the Senate, and to the country. The bill, he
said, must undergo strict examination and, if not
materially amended, both in its principle and lis
items, it could not have his vote. He stood ready
to vote against it, should proper amendment be re-
fused, and would take his own course, independently
of party drill. The great interest of the country
involved III this bill had been made football too
long. He was for the change of no principle Of
existing laws on the subject. He wanted he said,
no new experiments-no tariff bill of theories.

new bill
Mr.. RATHBUN said the bill not open to amendment

The SPEAKER said the previous question not in

MILITARY MOVEMENTS IN THE WEST.
EDITORS CORRESPONDENCE.

FoRT LEAvENwoRTH, MO- JUNE 25, lS46
AS all your readers doubt take great interest
in our operations against Mexico, | take pleasure in
furnishing you with few items in regard to our
expedition 10 Santa Fe. Of course this information
is only such as is derived from observing the move
ments that have taken place. not that any but
the commanding officer knows the final destination
of this army. We start from here with provisions
for six MONTHS and march direct to Santa Fe after
that, imagination comes to our aid, and each one
marches to the city of Mexico California, as suits
his fancy. For my part, incline to the belief that
we shall see the Pacific before twelve months. All
prepared for great hardship and privation even
before reaching the enemy; for the country from
this to Santa Fe is at best barren one, possessing
resources of very limited nature; so that, when
drawn upon by so large force, there is no telling
the result. The troops getting off in small boz
dies, (the better to subsst their horses, and it is
supposed will march in this order until they reach
the Arkansas, point four hundred miles west.
Three companies of the LIST Dragons left here be-
tween the 5th and 10th instant to capture ammuni-
ton en- route to Santa Fe. Nothing definite has
been heard from them. If long marches can avail,
the ammunition will be captured. Two companies
of volunteer cavalry left the 22d. -Four more
will leave to-day. There will then remain two
companies of cavalry, two Of artillery, and one Of
infantry, all volunteers. 1t is probable that we shall
all be under way by the 2Sth. The expedition has
been delayed this long for want of necessary equip
ments, tents, ordnance, &c. A company of the lst
Dragons is daily expected from Fort Crawford A
thousand more volunteers Ito be infantry called
for, and will probably get off some time in next
month. This will constitute the whole force under
Col KEARNEY. We will therefore march into Santa
Fe with about LOO volunteers and $50 regulars of
the lst Dragons. The proportion of regulars is
very small great disadvantage our gallant COM
mander will labor under. Volunteers, we all know,
are individually as brave regulars but to be ef-
fective in Masses they must have discipline and a
knowledge of tactics. They have evinced the great
est disposition to learn, and acquire rapidly what is
taught them, and it is hoped, before we meet the
enemy, that all will be pretty well drilled. AS men,
there could not be finer body collected.
The troops are in fine health and spirits, anxious
to be of, and doubly anxious to meet the enemy.
Those who have been long time in Mexico say
we will commence fighting fifty miles this side of
Santa Fe and fight our way in Should this prove
true hope before long to be able to describe Sc
cond Palo Alto. Yours, &c.

ALLEGED MISSING CORRESPONDENCE.

We copy the subjoined paragraphs from the New
Orleans Tropic Of July /. Without literally fol-
lowing the injunction of our Southern contempora-
ry to join In clamor" on the occasion, we cannot
but desire, if there exist any correspondence calcu-
lated to throw an Ineligible light upon what is to
this moment wholly obscured-that is, the motive,
justifable or plausible, for the order TO General
TAYLOR to march to the Rio Grande at the moment
that he did-that the veil Of mystery be Withdrawn
from it. The People have right to all the infor-
nation which their chief Executive agent, the Pre-
sident, thelMinisters who serve under him, pos
sessssRah. the subject.
FROM NEW ORLEANS l.
We wish part cuary to know why certain correspondence
is not published relative to the Army of Occupation" II
will be ecoected that, after Congress had been in session
time, Mr. Polk ordered the army march to the Rio
Grande He did this without consulting or notifying Con-
gress of the fact Now there some good for
this extraordinary his part that should be known
to the people II must not be forgotten that Mr. Polk claim
ed the Nueces the boundary line between Mexico and Texas
into power and the banks of that river the
Army of Occupation stayed long time. Now, it is i'm
poant to the people of the United States for Mr. Polk give
his for changing his mind and explain the extraord
nary necessity made upon him of moving the army while Con-
gress in session without consulting that body. We
that the press will camo for this missing correspondence 1t

Thanks Gen. TAYLOR and his brave little army, he fought
himself Of all difficulties whatever and, contrary the
expectations Of the Administration, covered himself and his
companions in with immortal honor Again ask for

FROM TAMPICO.

The Norfolk Herald has been favored with two
letters received by gentleman in that city, and
dated on board the United States sloop of war
81. Marys, lying off Tampico, on the 18th and 10Th
ultimo, which give accounts of two attempts, made
by the ships company in boats, aided by the ship,
to capture three Mexican gun-boats, whose move
ments were protected by one of the forts on the
shore. Both attempts proved unsuccessful, on ac-
count of the enemy having early discovered their
enterprise, and the difficulty which our boats en-
countered in crossing dangerous bar in the river
A good many shot and shells were fred, some from
both Sides but it does not appear that any life was
lost, or that other material damage was suffered by
either the assalants or the assailed
