Finally they moved into a large horse.

CoURsE OF GEN. kgARxY AN CoNMo- DoRL STocKToN.- Speaking of the cIanor raised in Congress, abont the course pursued by Gen. kearney in New Mexico, and Com. Stockton in Monterey, the Washington cor respondent of the Journal of Commerce, arily remarks: If the form of government Is loo free. 1t can easily he rendered despo,ic enough to suit the taste of any one.'' He adds, "We have, by chance, most admira- hle practical commentary on the question now under discussion in the House. in let ter from Col. Curtis, of the Ohio troops Gen. kearney established civil government --Gea. Taylor did nass1 sVluasllas Gen. fFay- Tor gained by declining the execution of the power given him What injury has Gen. kearney done by using his powers, or even by 'ransceuding them, Let Col. Curtis an swe! the question. Wnting from Ma,amoras on the Huh ult-, says:
 It is to be regretted that our laws are not extended over the territory we possess. Mili- iary law IS poor adapieshevsn to the govern nient of all army. Ours is miserable code. ft does not take cognizance of an oifrnee violating n contract even among the soIdlers of our army; neither does t extend to crimes, unless you can show they are in some way connected with the military. Our army is governed by the officers. noi by the .4raies and articles of war.p Under these circum- stances, the acquired territory is governed by no law. The Jaws of Mexieo are insufi- cient, and the judges and alcalde would not dare to condemn enc of oar citizens Many criminals have been sent io New Orleans, where, no doubt, the writ of ha6cas eorpms has turned lIem To ,se on the community - have humbly protested against this kind of transportation adopted by onr army; but real iy Il Is hard to perceive any disposilion we can legally make of them here in Mexico 1T Gen. Taylor had the talent of prociaimiag domtHioa and issuing edicfs, perhaps under these we might find some prelexi for pnnish- ing thieves and marderers; but Gen. Taylor always takes care to assume 10 such extra ordinary powers.
 Nothing but Congress can extend our Go vergmen. to this side of the Rio Grande; and could not justify yseif iii ordering my comthand to execute a criminal, unless he had violated our military code.
 These views show conclusively that nei- ther military law, nor the existing Mexican system of laws, would be at all adequate ts, the temporary government of the country.
