or The News we publish to day from
Me1ico, Teras, the Santa Fe expedition,
&c, is highly important and win be read
with interest. We may now continue to
look for highly interesting intelligence from
all that quarter. Gen Taylor is moving on
ward, slowly, but surely, towards Monterey
and, if the news from Mexico be correct
will there meet Paroles in considerable
force; and another fight viii settle the mat
fer. In the next battle many of the Volun,
ieers will participate, and we hope those
from Indiana may be of the number. We
know them TO be as brave as any troops now
there, and as anxious for an opportunity Of

LATER FROM THE ARMY.
MArAMoRAs, August 4, 1916

Gen Taylor and the staff leave here to-
day for Camargo, and all the troops are to
leave by about the 10Th inst. Gen. Twiggs
is left 10 superintend the movement of the
troops now here and those that are TO arrive,
for while at least He is in excellent
health, and was never looking better. Col.
Clark of the 9Th Infantry will be left at this
place in command, after all the troops have
been forwarded, and will have two compa-
MES OF artillery and one regiment of yolun-
teers under him. Gen. Twiggs, with Capt.
Mays four companies of dragons, and
Capt. Ridgely's battery of artillery. will
bring up the rear as the army moves for
ward. Col. Hays regiment of mounted
volunteers and Col. Johnson's regiment of
foot-Texas-ar to march to-morrow.-
The 'Gaines Rangers" have joined Col.
Hays regiment, and will leave with it. All
the regular troops now remaining here, ex-
cept Capt. Mays and Ridgely's commands,
are also ordered TO march tomorrow. 1t is
expected that the army will not move from
Camargo before the 25th inst. do not
choose TO express an opinion on the proba-
biIty of another fight with the Mexicans,
but know 1t is thought by many who will
have a great deal TO do in the matter if one
occurs, that fight, and hard one al that,
is before them. One thing is very certain,
and that is, every body here, except the
Mexicans, want at least one more ''shake'
with the followers of Paroles, or whoever
may be the leader of the Mexican army.
By-the-bye, l had forgotten to tell you an
important piece of news-important at least
to some folks here. Gen. Taylor has issued
an order-not against the present deluge o
"cold water" at all, for he is too much of a
Father Mathew man for that, but against
King Alcohol himself!s The order is one
prohibiting all spirituous liquors from entering
the mouth of the river. Under it no sutlel
or merchant will be allowed TO carry or sent
any liquors up the river from this place, ano
all persons in Matamoras are prohibited from
selling the screature" after the 18th inst. :
The order has created quite sensation il

things here Immediately, in consequence.

wrote you from this place yesterday
giving you what information | had of the
movement of the army. have one or two
additional items Of army news which may
as well send you. told you that Col
Hays Texas regiment of mounted men,
which shall accompany, would march TO-
day. Owing to the non-arrival of his tents,
which have been sent for al Point Isabel, he
cannot leave before Tomorrow or the day
after, but by the latter time the reg iment
will move. Itdoes not proceed, as under
stood it would, direct from Camargo, but
will go towards Tampico into the interior
and join the main army in a few weeks at
Camargo. 1t is the settled opinion of all
here that Hays will meet strong force OF
Mexicans on this route and Of course have
fight. Gen. Taylor, it seems, intends CIV
ing the Rangers a chance con their own
hook' to get into sscrape" and then gel
out of ii as best they may. The regiment,
learn, IS about 700 strong.
