THE WAR-PROSPECTS.

In the announcement of Gen. Scoit's Or
der of the 18th December-'the army is
about TO spread itself over and 10 occupy the
republic ofMexico, until the latter shall sue
for peace in terms acceptable TO the govern
ment of the United S,ates"-is seen the
commencement Of sytem Of operations
which the events of the past year have fore
shadowed as inevitable. 1t has been predic-
ted, ,time and again. by persons whose famil-
iarity with Mexican character entitled their
opinions to great weight, that so long as the
government made merit of.sonnding par
lev or peace in the intervals of battle, The
Mexican authorities would never come 10
terms. From the lifting of the curtain at Pa
IL Alto, TO the grand finale before the city of
Mexico, every scene has been heralded as
the last act of the drama; but those who are
acquainted with the actors upon the bloody
stsge knew better. Thoy have constantly
declared that the forbearing and generous
policy pursued by our government, and prac-
tiSed by our generals, would fail to impress
the Mexican mind with the feelings of conf
dence and respect for their adversary which
more civilized or less presumpiuous enemy
would not have acknowledged. Whatever
damage was done to the vanity of Mexico
BY beating her armies, was iinkered up by a
proffer Of peace. which her generals constru-
cd in way TO cover the defeats they had en-
conntered. The people could not compre-
hend the idea ofvittors being supplicants for
peace; and popular leaders were not interes
ted in, explaining the phenomenon to them.
Every advance made by the army was point
gained, from. which to make new oyertures
Of accommodation; and in every captured
city fresh modes of opening negotiations
were devised. Even before the defences Of
the city Of Mexico, 10 view Of The spires Of

LATER FROM MEXICO.

There were several arrivals in the River
fran Vera Cruz Yesterday, the latest being
the Steamship Virginia, Captain Tucker,
which left on the 4th inst, and tonched al
fampico.
The most important intelligence by this
arrival consists Of IN indefinite, but very cur
rentrumor, that secret negotiations are on
foo, which promise peace. 1t comes TO us
from seveveral sources, and such as are usu.
ally well informed. We have nothing very
tangible TO give color to it, but note below
such circumstances as favor il. For our
selves we can only vouch for The feet that
such an impression was very strong and
general at Tampico.
Capt. Tucker reports the total loss of the
brig Rupert, on Tampico bar. on the ls' in
stani. She was bound from Pensacola foI
Tampico, with cargo of lumber for the gov
eminent.
Col. Miles, with a force of from 1000 to
] 500 troops, left Vera Cruz on the I'd inst.
for the city of Mexico. Gen. Scott was onx-
ious for its arrival, which it was supposed
would not be later than two weeks.
As soon as another column 1900 strong
can be collected at Vera Cruz, i, IS expected
to move thence TO Orizaba, under the com.
piand Of COL Bankhead. In Vera Cruz this
is expected TO be a delightful excursion
from the beauty of the country. the ine
roads, and the kindness of The people, whc
have repeatedly solicited that the troops
should be sent thlher.
A small command had been despatched
from the city Of Mexico, composed prnci
