RumOrs Of war.

The intelligent and able correspondent Of
the II. X. journal of Commerce, on the
subject Of tue MeciIIa Valley difficulty, thus
writes under recent date:
Gen. Garland, who has been here en- route
for New Mexico, has left for bis important
command. He arrived here ii much less
time than was expected, after he had been
summoned to this place. He had received
his instructions, and conjecture that they
embrace both diplomatic and military pow
err He is undoubtedly to proceed forthwith
to New Mexico, and to march into the Ne.
ella Valley with a force that win enable
him to encounter Governor Trias who is
there before him, and who is prepared to ex-
pei him or any other American intruder.
It.may be that Governor Trias viii retire
before Gen. Garland, and that Ganata Anna
will snffer the United States to take and
keep possession Of that disputed territory
But such is not the apparent intention Of
the Mexicans.
Our Executive Government has deeided
that the disputed territory belongs 10 as under
the treaty, and would be oars surprising the
boundary line to be run from "a point inn
mediately north Of Ell Paso" westward.
1t Is of no use now TO 90 into the merits
of this controversy say again that our
Erecutipe has decided the question. and it is
to the result Of decision that we are to look.
II is to be hoped that this dispute viii be
allowed to be settled in the manner eontem-
plated in the treaty of Guadalupe, by run
ming the line over again, or, in case ola fin
al disagreement refer them to arbitration Of
some third party. But arms are now intro
duced By both parties in the dispute, and
both parties indicate resolute intention to
settle the question by Governor
Trias may give way. but he has not occu-
pied the Mecilla for the pupose of yielding
it. He has not gone there with force OF
a thousand men for the mere purpose of Civ
ing up the territory to Gen. Garland.
With smaller escort he could do that.
We have seen the FIRST Mexican war, and
know its origin and its immediate provocation
The circumstances of the present bases are
similar tothose of the former The advance
on Corpus Christi and upon Matamoras, kin
died the first war, and the second may be
occasioned BIZ the movement upon the Nc
ella Valley.

to the public mind. The real advantage and
permanent well being Of the community or
the country are considerations which find
no place in their bosoms; to accomplish
good ends by honorable means never comes
within the scope Of their selfish ambition.
Popularity. not fame, Is their object and de-
sire: they are worshipers at the shrine of
fortune alone. The dexteri,y which they

Tempt. Sometimes indeed. their sagacity
issat fault, and they end themselves unex
pectedly thrown out Of the current, in which
they were swimming to fortune and fame.
Their perplexity then is really amusing and
the foundering efforts which they make To-
get back again are irresistibly ludicrous.
We can conceive no situation more deserv-

men who keep the public mind in a ferment,
and are always generating. or at least nours
ishing. the cause of discomfort and political
turmoil. They are fed by the corruption
they engender, and live by the agitation
they excite. They are almost invariably
men Of ordinary intellect. They are des-

beneath contempt. They are in politics
