FROM THE ARMY.
LATER FROM MEXICO.

We are indebted TO our worthy Mail Agen;,
Mr.. j. Doanoran, for copy of the N. o
Delta oil The 3rd, from WHICH we copy the
following items of Army news. A letter
dated Matamoros 23rd Dec. says:
Sri have lille news TO send, but such
as | can gather up you shall have. Gen.
JesUp arrived at this place yesterday morn
ing, on the steamboat ]. E. Roberts, from the
mouth OF the Rio Grande, and left the same
afternoon, to return again, on the steamboat
Rough aud Ready. Gen. Patterson started
yesterday morning with his column, consist
ing of TWO regiments of Infantry (Elnois
volunteers) and the Tennessee Cavalry, with
a train Of between three and four hundred
Wagons, and Capt Swift's Engineer corps,
towards Victoria. We have news from Gen.
WooI's command as late as the 10Th Decem-
Der. They were well and had plenty of ever
Thing like provisions, but coffee. An express
has just arrived "a Mexican) from Monterey,
stating that Santa Anna was marching upOn
Gen. Worth, at Salillo, with very large
force. The express created considerable ex-
element at Camargo, and the troops were
ready TO march in one hour after The news
arrived. But as Santa Anna will either have
10 take road from San Luis that for 80 miles
affords no water, or the main one, coming
within seven miles of Gen. Wool's division,
think it more than probable he will have
warm work before he causes both to fall back
on Monterey.
Another letter dated Camargo. Dec. 18th,
says:
Dear DeAd-Since my last date, the Sd
Indiana and seven companies of the I'd have
arrived. The Sd will move on Tomorrow.
and the seven companies of the ID when The
remainder of the regiment arrives. Theirs
has been a weary time in this war-buried
in the sand of the Brazos and the Mouth
without pay, and many of them almost in
rags. Great praise is due TO them for the
promptness and rapidly with which theiI
present movement has been, SO far, execu-
ted.
The detachment Of recruits for the 4th u
s. Infnntry, five companies, under Capt
Morris, came up on the Big Hatchee thi:
afternoon. They OF course move on imme
diately, as (quore from Maj Bliss letter, or
dering The movement of the recruits and In
diana Brigade) "lhe commanding Genera
only delays his march from this place Mon
terey1 for their arrival" These companies
are full, in number, and for recruits, are wei
drilled.

or STATE DEBT BLL.--The extreme
length Of the proposed amendments 10 the
State Debt Bill of last winter--a synopsis
of which we gave last week--preVents our
giving it an insertion. We have perused
it carefully, and can see nothing in it
which should prevent lis adoption; and we
are inclined to believe, from all the informa-
ton we have derived from Indianapolis, that
there will be less difficulty in reconclling all
parties TO the measure, than was at first anti
cipated. We may expect the measure 10 be
acted on as soon as the members of the Cen
eral Assembly have settled to their satisfac-
lion the various National questions at pres
ent before them, and concerning which they
evince much more zeal than they do to serve
their constituents or TO reflect credit on their
Stale.
The State Journal publishes the amend
meni entire, and says:
"Our views in relation to The adjustment
or the State debt are we'll known. We "a
vored the passage of The original bill because
we believed if il were carried out in good
faith, as then understood, il would conduce
greatly to the advantage of the State; and
now, in the language of Gov. WHrrcoMB,
we express the earnest hops that no differ
ence OF opinion as 10 matters of minor con
sequence which do not materially change
the essential provisions of the act referred
TO, nor increase the burihens of the people
as therein contemplated, will prevent the
expected performance of the crownng acr
which will finally restore the honor OF lnd
ana, and place il upon firm and enduring
basis.

"A1D AND COMFORT. "A Wing member
Of the Illinois Legislature, concevng il to be
his duty to said and comfort" the LocoIocos,
particularly in their present dilemma, recent
y introduced the following resolution into
that body:
"Resolred By the General Assembly of the
State of Illinois, That we heartily approve
OF the message of the honorable James K.
Polk, President of the United States, vetoing
The bill passed al the last session of Congress
Of The United States, making appropriations
for The improvement oil the rivers and har

"Resolred' further, That the course Of the
President of The United States in compromis-
ing the Oregon controversy, and in fixing
The line of boundary on the forty-ninih de-
gree, after asserting that our title up TO fifty
Jour degrees and forty minutes was "clear
and unquestionable," meets the entire ap.
probation of the General Assembly of the
State of Illinois,
This applause of two Of the main acts Of
Mr.. Folks administration operated like a
6re-brand thrown in the midst of the faithful
they Immediately adjourned, and at next
meeting laid them on the table.

or DAIEv MAIL.-The proposition for a
daily mail IRON this POINT to Lafayette to
connect with one by the river, from Louis,
Vile 10 New Orleans, meets with the hearty
cooperation of the citizens of Vincennes
and Terre Haute, and in fact, along the
whole line. Petitions numerously signed,
will be forwarded to the proper Department
from those places at an early day, and We
confidently believe, will meet with favora-
Bile reception. A private letter from our
Representative, Hon. R. D. Owen, TO the
postmaster al this place. assures Us that his
utmost exeriion, seconded by other members
of our delegation, will be used TO accom-
plish the object. We hope soon 10 be adj.

much importance to the citizens of the whole
