The CONDUCT OF THE WAR.-An ar.
iicle from The Baltimore Clipper. suggest-
ing that the eight weeks armistice should
not be interrupted, because time should be
gwen to ascertain whether the Mexican
Government is inclined TO peace--has
drawn out the Union rather more unrs-
ssrved'y than usual. 1t now plainly indi-
cateS what was before but surmse, that
TaRpico will before long be made point
of attack. The Union says:
" The papers have been specializing up.
on an expedition to Tampico. We see
no good reason why it should not be IN
dertaken. We have still at least 10000
troops in the army of the Rio Grande.-
Allowing Gen. Taylor's camp at Monte
rey TO have one half of them, we have
about 10000 more in that wing Of The ar
my, to furnish troops sufficient for a new
expedition, besides guarding the points we
occupy on the river, and maintaining The |
between our different depos. !
Is the Baltimore editor willing to paralyze |
all these troops, 10 incur all the expense Of
them for eight weeks, until |
Mexico shall indicate her purpose OF peace
'r warp Certainly this is not our policy
We hope by the time that The armislice
would have expired of ITSELF, we shall see
'ur triumphant flag flying at Chihuahua,
II saltillo, and, if the newspaper specula-
ions are to be believed, perhaps at Vito
ia, the capital of Tamaulipas, and at
Fampico. AT all events, we go for ac-
ion, energy and success--always prepar.
d, however, TO negotiate for an honorable
eace, but declining any armistice until a
reaty of peace has been ratified"

Heavy cnpOrtations.

Notwithstanding the alleged "Prohibitory" cha.
racter of the Tariff of 1912 the importations this
Spring have been very heavy. The value OF foreign
merchandise imported into New York during the
quarter ending the LIST inst. is greater, by ST.
4t4,35s, than in the corresponding quarter of 40.
The effect is visible in the rate of Exchange,
which. we are informed by the New York EN-
press, is now fully up to, if not beyond the specie
point, and which has yet an upward tendency.
Specie is constantly exported in large quantities
to Fay the debt thus created against us-and
this drain of the precious metals, combined with
the stringent operation of the Sub Treasury,
which presume is soon TO become a law, can
not fail to result in arrangement of the curren-
cy-possibiy, in another suspension OF specie
payments. Ii is well asked by the Express, I'M
der existing circumstances, "Shall we reduce the
tariff, buy fine cottons IN Europe, much OF our
iron, &c. and pay for them in specie, so as to
have rogs only for ourselves, while foreign
tons are taking from gold and silver ~
