tIo for meeting il effectively The country Is full of
men, Of talent, Of money of all other resources and
could soon be placed in formidable condition A
hundred millions Of dollars, more than the war would
cost could soon be borrowed at five per cent? hun
dred thousand regular troops, more than we should
want could be raised and pped ten thousand mer-
chant seamen would soon turn into priyateers, and
ten thousand more would soon flock 10 our navy and
our mercantile dock-yards would soon be alive in
building better ships of han.we have got, from
superanualed aud self-suficent naval captains in
the shape OF Navy Commissioners and our merchant
captains would make as good commanders as thes did
in the revolution and subsequently. We therefore
call upon Congress TO make suitable preparations for
any contingency, and to begin with terrifying sea-
ports. We call upon them TO dismiss all inirigues
for the Presidency all petty quarrels with the Execu-
tive, and to unite like patriots, Ike men, TO maintain
the rights and honor of the country. They will soon
find that union and enthusiasm among the people, that
will cause the British government to pause and count
the cost. Let US have no quailing.

SENATE.

Mt Calhoun presented the repor, from The
Select Commitee.'to which was referred the me-
mortal and proceedings Of the Memphis onven-
ton.
Mr. Calhoun, in presenting the report, desired
10 remark, that the resolutions OF the Memphis
Convention embraced great variety Of subjects,
which we're TOO numerous for the Committee 10
report upon, and they had therefore coninedthem
selves 10 those which were OF the greatest i'm
portance. The principal subject to which they
had directed their attention was the improvement
of the navigation Of the Mississippi river, and
the Committee was unanimously Of opinion that
Congress had right to improve its navigation
under the provision ofthe Constitution 10 regulate
Commerce between the States. All the Commit
lee, except the Senator from Louisiana, think the
power is limited TO the improvement of the chan
mel of the river. That Senator thought the pow
erez,endet beyond the channel, and embraced its
shores and harbors.
Mr.. Calhoun Also in obedience to the instruc-
lions OF the Committee, reported bill to author

FROM THE ARMY.

Barque VIM. Ivy, Capt.. Hoffman, arrived yes
terday, (says the n. 0. Delta, June 2O) from Bra
EOS St Jaso, which place she left on The l2!h in
slant, bringing passengers Capt. c. ker, I'd ORA
goons; Capt J. B. Scott, nth Infantry. Capt
Hoffman reports on The 18th inst, the brig Ar
chelaus arrived at the Brazos from Tampico
with The American Consul, Mr.. Schaizell and
several other Americans on board, who had pre-
yiously been ordered from Malamoras by The
Mexican Authorities.
We learn by a passenger that advices bad
reached Maiamoras on The 9Th ins that 4 REIN
ioieet"sH, VI 5000 ..Aon ..l-s the Gamma nd Of
Gen. Arista had arrived al Monterey. The
Legislative delegation who left Matamoras on
the 18th did not hear word Of this.
The 81 Dragons under Capt. May, are en-
camped about halfway between Malamoras and
Point Isabel, on The spot where Walkers little
band Of Rangers was attacked by the Mrxicans.
The Texas Rangers, 10 the number OF GOO or 700,
are stationed near Point Isabel.
On The 18th, The Louisiana committee were en-
tertained by Captain May, at the Dragon en-
campment, halfway between Matamoras and
Point Isabel.
The main body of The Army is cncamped on
the Mexican side Of the Rio Grande, near Malta
moras, and strong guard is constantly kept in
the town. The 7h Infantry, and the Washing
ION AMI Jackson Regiments from Louisiana, are
on The left bank OF the river, in and near Fort
Brown. The other Louisiana Regiments are al
BarIeta.
The report that Maiamoyas was reduced 10
ashes, was without foundation. The fire Of our
artillery was principally aimed al the Mexican
bakeries. The damage done 10 the town was very
riiing.
General Taylor (says the New Orleans Tropic)
is in good health and in fine spirits.
REINOSA TAKEN.
a detachment OF Regulars and Volunteers, I'M
der COL Wilson, had been sent up The river 10
Reinoso Capt. Ogden arrived al Malamoras
from Reinoso on The l3h aud reported that Col.
Wilson's command had reached that place in
salely, without seeing anything of The enemy.
Reionsa was taken without blow by Colonel
Wilson. A deputalion from the citizens Q. Rein
csa waited on General Taylor 10 give up the
town; on their return they were imprisoned, but
released BY Colonel Wilson.
General Taylor expresses the opinion, that
there will he no figat with the Mexican people
this side OF The City OF Mexico. The reports 81
troops concentrating al Monterey is not credited
al Matamoras.
A false alarm was raised few days since al
Brasos Santiago, that three hundred MexIcans
had landed at that place The Kentucky Legion
and Featherslon's Regiment turned out to meet
the invasion. Much confusion ensued, but the
alarm turned out 10 be a false one, and the inya-
ding army some 800 mules.
Captain Page is doing WELL and will be in
New Orleans in a few days.
Major Armstrong and Colonel Mcintosh are
slowly recovering.
Several houses in Malamoras have been con
verted into hospitals, and ale filed with wounded
.leycan soldiers, 70 whom every possible alien
,icn is paid by The u. S. Surgeons.
