LATEST FROM THE ARMY.

Accounts from Brasos Santiago TO the lith
inst. bring news ola report that the town of Rel
nosa. against which the expedition of Colonel
Wilson had started, was surrendered without re-
sistance.
In addition to the above, the Mobile Tribune
says:
"Camargo and Rcinosa had capitulated in adj
vance of the movement Of General Taylor, and
he was only waiting the means of transporting
his troops up the Rio Grande to march towards
them.
"The main body of the regular army is on the
right bank of the river; Capt. Desha's command
and the Washington and the Jackson regiments
of Louisiana volunteers occupy the left bank.
Governor Henderson, at the head of about one
thousand Texan troops, reached the banks of the
Rio Grande on the 10Th inst. Seventeen warri-
ors of the Tonkaway tribe of Indians accompa-
MED the Texans. The sight of these Indians
created much alarm to the inhabitants of Mata-
moras and its vicinity, as they fear that General
Taylor will let them loose upon them.
"The Alabama companies, St. Louis and Lou
isyillo legions are at Brasos island. Col. Da-
kn's, Peyton's, Davis's, and Featherston's regi-
ments of Louisiana volunteers are at Brasos."
We have no confirmation of the report, noti.
ccd few days ago, that Gen. Arista had sent pro-
posals to Gen. Taylor for an armistico, & that he
had established his headquarters at Monterey witt
fifteen thousand men. 1t was, no doubt, un
true.

IL is tax that in this case, operates with great IN
Justice and inequality. Ii compels the poor man
TO pay as great proportion Of the duty as rich
man; perhaps more; for Tea and Coffee arc, in a
large number Of cases, used more freely by the
poor than the rich. A duty, therefore, ON Tea
and Coffee is oppressive and objectionable in the
last degree. ID is a direct tax: if necessary at
all, rendered necessary by this war. But that It
is not necessary at all, is shown by the fact that
it is imposed 10 make up deficiency in the rev.
