The Order for Additional rroops to be sent to


WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-The War Department to-
day countermanded the order for six companies of
troops to he sent from Fort Monroe and for five
from Fort Leavenworth to proceed to Brownsville,
there appearing from the latest accounts to be no
necessity for their proceeding thther: Apart from
the object of aording protection to the Rio Grande
frontier, the various speculations to the employ
ment OF so large force are thus dissipated.
In consequence of the recent occurrences on the
frontier a suggestion has been made to the Liberal
Government of Mexico, from distinguished quar-
ter, that immediate steps be taken with view of
entering into an agreement or treaty with the Gov
ment of the United States for the punishment of
such outlaws Cortinas and his men, the ain
feature of the proposed arrangement being to treat
offences either side of the Rio Grande as against
the peace of both Republics, and the parties to be
tried and punished according to the laws of the
country in which they may be arrested.
