RELATIONS WITH MExIco.-The Govern
ment organ, the Union, in noticing the late
dispatches from Mexico, peremptorly denies
that the overtures of peace have been refused,
and asserts that they are to be referred to the
next Congress, which is to meet in Mexico at
the beginning of December. The Union, pre-
dcated on this state Of facts, urges that spirit
ed and vigorous prosecution Of the war will be
the only proper means of dealing with "thc
usual dllatory style Of Mexican negotiation"
The Union says-"We are aware, in the first
place, that though Santa Ana may defer ne
gotiaton, he will not fold his arms, and adopt
a system of inactivity. So far from this, we
see him declaring to General Salas and his
countrymen that he is determined to throw
succors into California, and to despatch troops
TO meet our advancing armies. He even
promises to gather aurels on the Sabine-that
is to say, to drive General Taylor and his as.
sociatc generals out of Mexico, beyond the
Rio Grandc, and then to pursue them through
the whole territory of Texas, until his advan-
cling arms can gather their victorious laurels ON
the banks of the Sabine.
Shall we ask, then, what is our own duty /!
Can any man of sense hesitate to advise the
h'obt sp'ih'h Nipolous Oh lHc
war on our part We stand in this predca.
ment: We have incurred great expense in
sending our troops into Mexico. They are
advancing westwardly in three lines. There
is every reason to believe that General Kear-
ney Is already in possession of Santa Fe that
General Taylor is now, or will be in few
days, at Monterey, and perhaps at Satillo :;
and that Gen. Wool will be at chihuahua by
the 10th or 18th of October Shall we then
fold our arms, and relinquish one of the ad-
vantages which we may have obtained On
the contrary, shall we not prosecute our vic
tories, and make additional conquests-towards
California, and towards the capital of Mexico
itself' BY the time that this dilatory di.
plomacy can be assumed by the constituent
Congress, we ought to be in possession of
large portion of the whole country. So far
from frittering away the means which are in
our hands, we should turn them TO the best
account, and open the negotiation with all the
advantages we can command"

fruits could be preserved in almost any sub.
