does look like doing something. Yes, indeed. We

why after the late official declaration that troops
were to be called out The reason pain pipe
STEM We are authorised from credible authority to
sure you land may well say now that we are eau
tious at oil times of unknown auhorties that ten days
ego tho War Department had decided upon awaiting

The exgency has occurred And what is il It is
nothing less than the conducta II il the con-
Quota Of two millions Of specie upon nine hundred mules
destined for Tampico in payment OF certain Bril-
fish merchants but arrested by Santa Anna
and turned over to the account of the !" liberia;
ting army of the Republic'-money, mules and
that the British merchants should be called upon pay
the bill Of two millions refused by honest John Davis, at
MIR PaIenham is one Of the stockholders in this con-
Quota to the amount Of $4,000 Some three years since
Arista arrested conduca the way, and turned
over the military chest of the army of the North by
which Mr. Pakenham was compelled to forced loan to
ment should derounce that of the :" magnanim0us
tion" reduced to the lowest stage OF national degra
dation.
But this was the only resource. What else could
Santa Anna do Starting out of Mexico as he did with
military chest OF $27 000 he must have been apprsed Of
this conduca and adopted his movements to intercept it.
The conducta immediately changes the whole aspect of
affairs. There must now be closing night and the
chances clearly in favor Of the march OF the Army
Of Occupation to San Luis Potosi.
Before the troops can be mustered however Congress
assembles-our Congress and the Mexican Congress.
And with the meeting of the Mexican CongIess, they
will receive the information tof this call for voun-

hand just now, will as soon as the bill - presented
hereafter The call for the volunteers Is to show the
Mexicsns t1at although the army of occupation may
not be sufficient to forward movement upon San LUIS
there is reinforcement on the way o. 1000 men o.

This is good movement whether for war or peace
Believing its object to be II Is certainly udcious
The Mexican Congress will look at it, consult upon It,
and with evidence before their eyes that unless they
come to terms, the army Of Gen Taylor Is ees.'nea 4r
