The Lieutenant General bill was then taken
up Mr.. Dix took the floor and explained the
grounds on which the appointments OF Lieuten-
ant General was deemed measure of necessity
and expediencey. 1t was believed that no alterna-
tive remained but to advance with all the force the

Mr. Burt addressed the Committee IN defence
of the rights of the South in regard to slavery.
Mr. Petit followed, Insisting that the sover-
eighty of the government of this Union extends
over the Territory Of that government, as it does
over all other property belonging to the United
States in their tederative capacity. Where the
right of soil exists, ii does in this case, the alb
solute sovereignty continues until thpt right is
surrendered. Hence the power OF Congress to

EY The Editor of the N. Y Evening PostE
Tor whose character we entertain great respect
IS not altogether satisfied with all the proceedings
Of Mr. Polk, and his real feelings are sometimes
manifested in spite Of party restraints. In late
number Of the Post, he says:
Very far are we from attaching any blame to
Mr. Polk. He assented to a nomination which
ne never sought; and, we believe, discharges
the duties of his high station conscientiouslv.
But he otoes the people nothing. If his early
habits his education, and all the associations Of
maturer years, have taught him no sympathy for
mat numerous portion Of his feIIoso-citizens bv
,chose labor bread is made, and battles are non
they must not blame him, but thank themselves

IMPORTANT FROM THE SEAT OF WAR.

WAsHIN GTON, j an. IA.
The steamship Alabama has arrived at New
Orleans She left Brazos Oh the Sd inst. No es
pecial news of interest from Salhllo from which
it is inferred that the danger of attack was not as
imminent as at first supposed, when Gen. Worths
express was dispatched for reintorcements
Dates from Matamoras, to the LIST inst. have
come to hand. Since last advices there have
been rumors of battles, marches and counter
marches-that Gen. Wool's column was cut off,
Gen. Worth's division driven back to Monterey
from Saltilo, and that Gen. Taylor was shut up
at Monterey.
Gen. Scott and staff left two days previous in
haste for Cdmargo. Going up the river they met
a steamer with the mail bringing intelligence that
part of the corps OF observation belonging TO San
ia Annals army had been seen near Parras,
where Gen. Wool's army was encamped, and that
Gen. Wool had joined Gen. Worth at Saltio, as
had Generals Twiggs and Quitman, as per previ-
GUS accounts.
Gen. Taylor, it was thought, would no doubt
return home as soon as Scott took command.
On the goth Dec, Commodore Perry with sew
eral vessels took possession of laguna, and de-
stroyed all the enemy's guns and munitions of
war found in the forts and the town.
| Gen. Santa Anna is declared by the new Con-
| gress duly elected President of the Republic of
! Mexico.
From an examination Of farther files of Next
can papers, no direct action appears to have been
had upon the subject Of the war by the Mexican
Congress. The Mexican papers convey the i'm
preston that San Luis is to be the great battle
ground of the war.
Othcial Mexican accounts have been received
OF events at Los Angeles, on the Pacific. In the
accounts OF Sept. "a at that place, 81 Americans
were made prisoners and 8 wounded; one Mexi-
can was killed, but no Americans The con-
qnerors then laid siege to the city of Angels and
Oh 'he ooth sept. the town capitulated to Flores.

The Washington Correspondent of the New York
Journal of Commerce gives the following interesting
information
"The Mississippi, which sailed on the 7lh, car
ried out as now learn, full instructions from our
: Government to the able and intelligent United
States Consul in the city of Mexico, Mr. BLACK,
who is still employed there as means of commu-
ncation between the two Governments.
"Mr. BLACK will enunciae the Three Million
Bill, which conveys, on its face, to the Mexican
Government the expression of desire, on the
part of the American Congress, to obtain speedy
and honorable peace" with Mexico. The Mis-
sissippi may possibly arrive at Vera Cruz, if the
'equinoctal gales do not interrupt her, by the Goth
March. II strikes me that, very possibly, prem-
naries for treaty of peace will be settled before
the intended assault upon Vera Cruz and the
: Castle. That was the opinion expressed by Mr.
SouLE before he left the city,"
