The most momentous event Of to-day is the pas
sage Of the tariff bill through the House with the
Senate's amendment. The Presidents signature
will not be long wanting to make it law.
There was nothing else of Importance done to-
day. The day is opprsssvsly hot, and the House
adjourned about hall past one O'Clock, IN conse-
quence.
There is nothing new from the army but what
you are already in possession of. II is the inten-
ton of the government to push the army into the
interior fast possible, as there is nothing for
il bur vigorous measures. Should Paredes not be
called on to oppose Santa Anna, there is every
probability OF a brush between our forces and the
Mexcans, before long.
Ii is, however, impossible to count on anything
with certainty, yet. The affairs OF Mexico
were never in such unsettled state as at pre-
sent. Santa Anna hovering on its shores-lhe
army of the United States penetrating into its iu-
terior-the leaders mutually jea.oas of each other
each ready to supplant the other, should oppor-
unity serve, it is impossible to surmise what turn
affairs may take II IS, however, safe to suppose
that Paroles will be brought to capitplate, not
perhaps until alter another engagement, but Ger
tanly sooner than is generally imagined An
army must have sngleness of purpose, or great
patriotism, or, in the absence of both, strict mlll-
tary discipline to make it efficient in a cam
paign. The Mexicans have neither Of these
three requisites in sufficient degree to ! rom,se
any formidable efficiency. Their bravery is
unquestionabe; they have considerable discipline
but they have no faith in their rulers. They have

at length begin to suspect it. Besides there is
diversity of interests among them, and this must
weaken their arms. In view of these things will
venture predict that the war will not last three
months. There will probably be some news this

unhlushing comes forward and denies their ut
