THE TES REGIMENT Bill. This bill has at
length passed the Senate by vote of 20 to 10.
If any one can give reason why this bill
should pass, we should be glad to hear it, Pro-
vided peace is not obtained by the Treaty, it
cannot be obtained by fighting, for there is
none, nor can there be any Mexican army rails
ed of sufficient force to cope with the $4,000
of our men now in Mexico. We have not seen
the yeas and nays, but presume that with the
exception of Mr. Calhoun, Mr. Hunter, and
MIR Butler, all the democrats voted for it. OF
the Wings, we know only of Reverdy John
son, and Mr. johnson of Louisiana, who would
be at all likely TO vote forit. The bill win not
be likely TO pass the House.
