INCREASE OF TIE ARMY.

regiments to the present Twenty-Five regiments

committee reported bill authorizing "tventy
new regiments of volunteers" When alfthese
regiments shall be raised the Army of the L.
nited States, regular and volunteer, will u
mount to some sixty or seventy thousand men,
at cost of millions Of money, which it is at
present impossible to estimate, and all to yindi-
cate the personal consistency of President
Polk. The ruinous consequences of this i'll
starred Mexican war are now rapidly approa-
