These will probably be joined by the line OF
battle ship Ohio, which will sail from Boston, with
sealed orders, in few days The number of
guns in the gulf will then amount to 80, which
we suppose will be amply sufficient to make
the attack on San Juan de Uloa successful.
There will probably be no change made in the
Pacific squadron until the arrival there of Com.

Commodore Stockton or Bddle, both now in the

The BRKvET RANK AND CoNeRRss-Among
other business that there was; no time to act
upon at the last session of Congress, in conse.
quence Of Mr.. Davis having talked against time
with the view of defeating the two million
appropriation bill, was a communication from the
President, recommending number of officers
who had distinguished themselves in the battles
of the 9Th and 9th Of May last, to receive brevet
promotions. We hope Congress will take up this
business at the earliest hour practicable, and do
justice TO those gallant officers. The coun-
try owes them a debt Of gratitude which never
can be repaid, and the least we may do is to bear
them in mind, and prove that their services in
sustaining the honor Of their county's Gag are at
least appreciated, and not forgotten as soon as
rendered.

PACIFIC SQUADRON.

Whole number on the coast of Mexico. =. $3.50
This new plan of operations will be commenced
as soon as possible, or at least soon as orders
to that effect can reach the officers who are to
conduct it to a successful result.
We have always maintained that we might
never expect any overtures of peace from the
Mexcans while they held possession of Vera
Cruz and San Juan de Ulloa. The latter place
they have strongly fortified since its reduction by
the French squadron few years since, and con-
slider it their greatest stronghold, as in fact i'm
pregnable. Its retention has tremendous moral
effect on the Mexican mind, and its capture
would do more to insure peace than any move
ment that we could make; not so much from It's
actual value and importance to US, but because
the Mexcans imagine that it cannot be taken,
which to them is an agreeable conceit.
That place once in our possession, and
the war may be said to be ended. If how
Latter its reduction, the enemy should doggsdly
refuse to come to terms, we can march to the
capital. Before surrendering that, they will no
doubt give us any terms we may please to dictate.
Git will be seen, therefore, that on our part
the war is only commencing. All previous opera
tons were made with the view of securing an
early peace, on the easiest terms possible. Hav-
ing failed in that, there is nothing left for us but
- employ our full strength, make one brilliant
and mighty Observation-Disclosures the coup
de grace in our own way, and give the enemy
when they ask for it, the peace which they might
have obtained months since, without having IN
Cured fiftieth part of the expense which these
great preparations will cost them.
The administration has now commenced in
earnest. All its former efforts were mere child's
play The whole force of the country will now
be brought into requisition, and peace soon re-
stored. 1t now needs the support of the people of
all classes. The man who seeks to impede tho
brilliant arrangements now made for ending the
war, is traitor to his country, and deserves the
execration of every right thinking man in the
Unite States, and he surely will receive
no "aid or comfort" from any one. We
may soon receive important intelligence from
the army and navy. The closing scenes
will be brilliant, beyond all example, and the
glory and renewn which is about to be shed on
the country, may serve to quiet the babblings of
our enemies in the Old World. In the meantime,
however, the constituent Congress of Mexico
may acquire some common sense, and open ne
gotiations with US without the necessity Of an
other battle.
