CAPTURE OF TAMPICO.
Preparatious for IFS ctentiou

BY the arrival OF the u. s. steamer Miss.i~ippi. Com
Perry, at the S. w. Pass. news was received yesterday OF
the capture Of Tampico by the U. 5. squadron on the Iitl
inst. We announced in yesterday mornings edition of tho
Pieayunc tho departure OF the squadron from Anton Liar
do upon this expedition, and before tue day was over the
success OF the enterprise. The fleet sailed under Com
Conner on the llth and 18th insts. On the lih Com. Per
ny crossed the bar with the Spitfire, Vixen, Peirel, Bonita
and Refer reinforced from the Cumberland, Mississippi,
Princeton and ST. Mary's. There was no opposition maGe
To the American arms. The town was surrendered uncon.
dinonauy, the garrison having been previously Withdrawn.
The Mississippi sailed Immediately for the Babze for
troops to garrison the city. In coming hither Com. Perry
touched at the Brazos and despatched a lieutenant 10 Gen.
raterson's camp TO obtain troops for the garrison. The
miss'ssiPpi then came TO the Balizc for the same object
NeIearn from proper sources that about one hundred and
fifty men, recruited for the LIST and 3d Infantry, will be des-
patched Immediately for Tampico. A detachment OF these
troops has already arrived; the remainder are expected TODAY
or to-morrow Besides these, four companies OF the new re.
giment OF mounted rHemcn, under Major Burbidgc, will
be sentI TO Tampico as soon as they arrive. They are hour
ly looked for.
Capt Hetzel, of the Quartermastet's Department, has
been despatched to Baton Rouge for ordnance aud NUM-
tons, and Capt. Barnard, of the Engineers, will repair di-
reety TO Tampico to superinIend the erecting and armins
OF the necessary defeneos.
Although the city was taken without the loss of blood. IL
Is manifest that IL is not to be surrendered without n strug-
gle before peace is declared. The town IL now in the nos
be well spared from their ships. As soon as the place is
sufficiently gartisoned 10y land forces the squadron will pro-
coed 10 other business. A change has come over the fleet
and We doubt not vi its future usefulness. MANY of our
naval officers regret that TamPico was SUR, ndered without
a blow. IL Is well enough rs it is. We incline TO the opin-
ION that the place will become Of the utmost consequence
10 the intended operations upon the interior. The with
drawal OF the Mexican garrison is evidence that Santa An
ma Is making preparations for n demonstration upon a largo
scale in the direction of San LUIS Potosr or ssltiuo-morc
probably at the former.

Negotiations In Washington.

The New York Journal Of Commerce processes TO have
seen part OF a correspondence which has recently taken
place at Washington between an Agent Of the Mexican
Government in this county and Mr.. Buchanan the Secre.
tary Of STATE. and also between the same Agent and the
Mexican Government. The object Of this Agent Is, in
his own language, to cause one Republic to give way TO
the other, and to establish a friendly understanding in both.
on mutual CONCESSIONS
In one Of his letters TO Mr.. Buchanan, the Mexican
Agent is quoted as saying, tina; the refusal of the Mexican
authorities to entertain Mr. Buchanan's proposition for the
restoration OF peace, ought not to have been considered BE-
a - rebuff" since it was the only mode to render their &C.
ton efficient. I" 1T might have seemed The says) presump-
ton for Rulers to attempt action, II unsupported by, or
not based upon the sutirages OF a free people. The heads
Of the Mexican nation. DESTROYS To degenerate the Repub-
lie, commenced by acknowledging the people the rulers Of
Mexico. The peace, when established, will thus be based
upon the wishes and will Of the people, aud will be more
satisfactory 10 you, and to them, on that account."-"I
send to you reason to believe that pacific sentiments, Of On
honorable nature, exist in the minds OF the Rulers Of Mex
leo - &c. &c.
This letter, the Journal Of Commerce says, was an
swered by Secretary Buchanan, in language nationally
d%ignihed, and highly crediiable 10 his feelings as a man,
patriot and gentleman. Mr.. Buchanan's reply runs thus
my letter Of the Goth instant does no more than truly
express the sentiments OF this Government.
"You mention articles for a treaty, some Of which the
two Republics might reasonably agree to with honor to both.
Entirely ignorant OF what those articles contain, | can Of
course express no opinion on the subject.
81 am pleased that you consider my communication TO
you kind and couciliatory. IL was certainly 50 intended.
Personally, ! have always sincerely regretted the existence
Of the war and now sui more, because / cherish the hupe,
that, under thu ICdcral System, should IL be honestly main
mined, Mexico may recOse! from all her mIsiOrunes, and
her people may become prosperous and happy. IL II one Of
the most unnatural events in history, that the Two hepub-
hcs which might do each other so much good in peace,
should be engaged IN war. Still, IN opposition 10 your
opinion, / must continue to believe that Ibis war was for.
ced upon the United States aud / know that we engaged
in il most reluctantly.
''FUr the character of Mexico throughout the world,
this war has had one good effect. No person can hereaf.
ter doubt tho yalOr Of her troops. ~ every engagement
they have proved themselves to be men,"
The Jou nal of Commerce does not say by what means
it obtained a sigh Of thcso important but We
take j. for granted that they are authentic.

A SINGULAR CASE oF FRAUD-San Hation, a free mu-
laito boy, and a barber, was arraigned before the Mayor
yesterday morning, charged with forgery. 1t appears from
the evidence, that a little negro boy, n few nights ago,
presented himself about 9 o'clock At Mr.. Clarke's Lottery
Office, with n ticket in the Leesburg Lottery. Class 81,
which ticket apparently bore the numbers 30 50 -, and
was entitled to a prize Of $40, it being a quarter ticket
Mr.. Clarke's suspicious were merely aroused by the time
OF night, and the extreme youth Of the negro boy. It
turned out that the ticket was originally u blank, but the
numbers Of some tickets had been neatly cut out, and
those numbers so adroidy pasted over the real numbers of
the ticket, (Which were SO So 70O as almost to escape de-
lection. But Mr.. Clarke, from conversation with the negro
boy, and from rubbing has hand over the face OF the ticket,
detected the attempted fraud, and subsequently the prisoner
was asccrtained To have been the person who sent the ne
gro boy to pass of the fraudulent ticket. sam was sent
on TO a Called Court for the offence, on the 5h Of Decem
Der next. The Lottery vendors had better keep a good
look out, as it was by the merest accident that Mr.. Clarke
was not deirauded by this ingenious deyice.-Enguirer.
