The Prospect Of Peace.

The Prospect Of Peace.
The thermometer Is running hard upon ninety, aud
still rising Bya parity Of reasoning, II is safe, there
fore to assume that the war is cooling down In
Mexico but that the elements still In state Of flu
sion and confusion Scott orders halt TO allow Trst to
step forward yet once with the olive Dough San
tn Anna gives Mr. Trst the wink hints In his at the
three milons-wait little MIR. Trist-all right. MIR
Trist don't understand hm-populace camorous for
war-Santa Anna wants one more fight got big army
and they must he whipped before they will to
peace. The truth is, the Mexicans rather hard
people to understand and yet In the science dplo-
macy, neither Tseyrand Mettern ich have
hbited the scientific juggling of the trade Is
derstood by RECON, Pena Pcna, Santa Anna and the
Mexican politicians generally.
For good bargain then with the Mexicans we should
rather trust to the military than the diplomatic
branch Of the plan Of the Lieutenant General. Col
Benton, 1t seems, holds the same opnion-in dis
closing that his plan proposed 10000 men each to
Scott and Taylor in n simultaneous movement upon
the imperial city OF the Aztecsn His policy by tho
presence OF wbelmng force to persuade the

the work Of persuasion This plan however, has not
been exactly carried out The army both of Scott and
Taylor, has been insufficient Tor junction. without
which 1t will be extremely difficult to persuade the An
tees TO negotiations In this state of the case the Ad
mnsration has adopted the diplomatic branch ms the
acting only as the secondary OF coercion in the
event Of rejection Of diplomatic persuasion.
We are afraid the Mexicans through the game
They have but little faith In our magnanmity. The
appearance OF Trist with flag of truce while Scott r.
stopped at Puebla with six thousand men, will be-
apt TO raise their suspicious that the offer OF Mr..
Irst Is rather from necessity than generosity
that the American general feels himself In danger
that he has no prospect of timely endorsements
that he may be cut up and cut on endorsements sud
athat Taylor IL in the predicament and may Dc
