HOW WE GOT INTO THE PRESENT WAR.

The Washington correspondent of the New York
Herald-decidedly friendly to the Administration
gives in the latest of his letters, the following ac
count of the probable objects of the Administration
in bringing on this war with Mexico:
" In this view the war may be assumed to have
been commenced for the acquisition of Califor-
MIA and the march Of General TAYLOR to the
Bravo, ostensiby for the protection of the from
tier, may haze looked TO results far more COM
prehensiue and magnificent.
The fact is incontrovertble, at all events, that
the Administration from the start calculated upon
the remuneration of California. The march of
: General TAYLOR to the Rio Grande was designed
: to act as persuasive to the reception of Mr..
SLIDELL. 1t was thought his presence in front OF
: Matamoros might be an inducemenf to the Next
cans to negotiate, as the only medium of escaping
positive war with the United States, so power
full in all the elements of war. 1t was expected
that in negotiations thus brought about, the ces-
: sion of California in quit-clam for indemntes
would be easily attainabe. In December, ls45,
the Administration did not dream of overrunning
Mexico but it was hopeful of intimidafing The
: AericanS into treaty, and the acquisition Of
: California, without war, and without manufacture
ing Wing generals to perplex Father RITcHIE
with regard to the succession
We are not aware that any Wing press has ever
expressed quite as severe judgment as this upon
the motives of the Administration for marching the
army Of the United States into the territories of
Mexico. According to this exposition, what the
Administration really proposed to itself by that
movement was to bully the Government of Mexico
into a cession Of California TO the United States

Among other brought by passengers is to the

road leading to the Convent Of Lady Of Guadalupe but
nothing like regular system of defence has been yet

with all their vaunngs to have become Supplied at the
cesson Of defeats which have been their country and know
which way to turn nor what to do. Santa Anna has
written to the Government from Ozaba, stating that he has
500 men, and reinforcements and money but his
demands have been UNDECIDED. At the city Of Mexico,
well in other places the people appear to have lost much
Of their confidence in the Hero Of Tampco, and many
have openly accused him of cowardce Cerro tordo

The enemies of Farias, the Vice President oil
Mexico have succeeded in getting rid of him,
by abolishing the office, which they did by a
vote in Congress, Of SO to IS, and the follow
! ing decree was promulgated on the LIST April:
L. Permission is granted TO the actual Presi-
son Of the forces which the Government may
place under his command, to resist the foreign
enemy.
@ The Vice Presidency Of the Republic, es-
tablished by the law Of 2lst December last, is
suppressed.
g. The place of the provisional President
shall be filled by a substitute, named by Con-
gress, according to the terms of the law just
cited.
a. If, in this election, the vote of the depu-
tations should be tied, in place of determining
the choice by'lot, Congaess shall decide, vot-
ing by person.
5. The functions of the gu bstitute shall cease
whensthe provisional President shall return to
the exercise Of power
6. On the 18th day of May next, the Legis-
latures Of the States shall proceed to the cleo
ton of President of the Republic, according
to the form prescribed by the Constitution of
1924, and with no other difference, save voting
for one individual only.
7. The same Legislatures shall at once trans
NIT to the Sovereign Congress the result of the
election, in acertified despatch.
Santa Anna having expressed his intention
to assume the command of the army, Congress
at once elected Senior Urraya as the substitute
for the President, who has issued an address to
the people, on taking upon himself the du.ies
of acting President, in which he recommends
union, as the only thing necessary 10 resist
9'the INVADERS successfully, and that peace,
which would involve the dsmemberment OF
the territory, is not to be thought of.
