TELEGRAPHIC INTELLIGENCE.
Summary.

Telegraphic intelligence was unusually limit
ed yesterday. Our principal despatch was from
Washington, which contains all the Congress
sional proceedings. The Senate was not In ses-
sion, and the House was engaged partly In a
charming interlude of personal explanations,
occasioned by certain expressions used in the
rece Mt debate on negro slavery.

OUR ARMY IN MExIco.-It is not without some
valorous feeling of Indignation that we have
read in almost all the papers, an account that our
army is going to make a "retrograde move
ment." 1t is altogether a mistake and a mis-
nomer-we would have the world to know that
that gallant band of heroes who have fought their
way to the Halls of the Montezumas, sierming
impregnable fortresses at the lannon's mouth,
putting to rout armies five times their number,
and overcoming obstacles of nature and art, of
force and intrigue, apparently insurmountable-
that brave army makes no retrogrsde movement.
This expression means e retreat-it is only ap-
piled to armies in straits and difficulties, which
are obliged to retreat. Let the truth, then, be
properly expressed and stated; and that truth
simply 10, that the American army, covered with
fame and military glory, having achieved Sc
ries of the most brilliant victories, is about to
withdraw voluntarily, freely, proudly and gene
rously, from the scene of its victories to evacu-
ate, according to treaty, the places it occupies;
and having conquered peace and restored or
der TO disorganssd people, will now return, in
victorious guise and dignihsd majesty, o the
peaceful homes and happy land from which it
has been 30 long absent.

AMERICAN SQUADRON IN THE MEDITgRRANEAN.-
We understand that petition has been sent to
the government at Washington, requesting that
large addition be made to our naval force in the
Mediterranean, for the purpose of protecting our
commercial interests in that quarter; such addi.
ton being deemed necessary, in consequence
of the revolutionary events that have re-
Gently taken place in Europe. We should
say that if the government has not already
made arrangements for the protection of our
interests in that part of the void, no time
should be lost in doing so. Prevention in
this, as it Is in all cases, is much better than
cure Il In the event of European war, the pre-
sence Of an efficient squadron would probably
obviate recurrence Of the disasters which have
heretofore been visited on American commerce.

For California;.


The fine steamship Crescent City, Capt. Stod-
dard, left yesterday afternoon, or her first voyage
to Chagres. The crowds of persons, of all classes,
assembled on the docks and rigging of the vessels
In the neighborhood, to witness her departure,
were immense; and the enthusiasm Of both pas
sengers and spectators was unbounded. Hun
dreds were attracted thlther by curiosity, while
the majority came to bid hurried farewell to
TO their adventurous friends WheI the vessel
moved of from the pier, the excitement became
intense, and the parting salutatlons and cheers, on
both sides, were loud and long, and continued until
the noble ship passed beyond the reach of hearing
She carries out but about 100, all told-a much
smaller number than was anticipated. The diff
culties, many of which are imaginary, to contend
with IN crossing the Isthmus, as given IN the pa
pers from day to day, inundated hundreds who
were bent upon traversing this route.
The steamer Isthmus leavesfor the same port on
Monday, touching at Savannah, Havana, and New
Orleans. We have not ascertained how many
have entered for passage.
The coming week will send hundreds on their
journey to the Pacific, by way of Cape Horn, as
this conveyance seems to have gained much popu-
1anty during the last few days. 1t has many ad-
vantages, to say nothing of the comforts and the
assurances it offers in the way of living. Ship.
owners have taken advantage of this, as is evident
by the number of vessels now advertised for Ca
lifornla. Many of them, upon reaching their
destination, will be converted into floating board
ing or lodging houses, until something better
In their legitimate business offers. The list
now up comprises every class of vessels, from
the schooner of 30 tons to the ship of 800, and
for this trade many of them are exceedingly
well calculated. The list, since our last notice.
has been enlarged by the addition of the ship
Norma, belonging to Messrs. Spoford, ITileston,
d Co., the bark Express, Messrs. Jones "
Johnson, of Wall street, who have also beautiful
brig, which they intend to follow the Express, and
will sail about the 18th of J anuary. The Express
sails about the first of next week
As an evidence of the excitement consequent on
the discovery of the gold mines of California, we
can state upon good authority, that the shlp-bread
bakers in this city nave more orders offered them
than they can possibly execute for several weeks.
One ship-bread baker, not twelve month in bust
ness, received, on Friday, orders for one hundred
and twenty thous.-a. Wounds navy bread, and could
Only supply, by the sth January Next, 10000 lbs,
equivalent to 500 barrels of flour. The Ns;c.,k
Advertiser says
We understand that Capt. Geo W. Taylor, late of
the United States Army, of hunterdon county, NJ j..
Is about organising trading and mining company for
California. The association will consist Of twelve mem
berf, and they design shipping Immediately large
amount OF goods and implements to the bay Of San
tier about the middle Of February proceed over
land to California.
