FROM THE SEAT OF WAR.

There is no news of any consequence from the
seat Of war, but what we have we spread before the
public
Gen. Taylor, it is reported, will soon move on
towards San Luis Potosi--but this must be mis-
take, for he has no men to move any where. His IL
months volunteers have all returned home, which
leaves him totally unprepared to move upon that
city. Col. Doniphan has reached as far as Parras,
on his way to join the General.
Com Perry has returned to SACRIFICES from his
cruize. During his absence he touched at i.aguna,
Frontera, and other ports ON the coast. At Laguna
he raised the blockade giving instructions to the
officer in command to levy the new tariff on all i'm
ports. and war tax of ten per cent ad valorem on
all imports.
