THE LAST CAUCUS.

Whether il be or be not wise and polite to hold
party csucuses to deliberate on such topics IS the
revision of the Tariff, We will not decide; but it
certainly does not seem to be very effective. The
third (or fourtb) sssemblsge Of the democratic
Members of the House was held on Saturday
eveDiDe-less than half the number present-nOne
from Penney lvans, none from the Eastern, and
very few from the Middle States. Nothing was
effected, nothing even decided Cd, bat tho
holding of another caucus at a future day,
though but four weeks of the Session remaio.
Surely, if the only result of these csucuses is to
postpone action on the most important measure OF
the Session. it would seem clearly advisable to dis
pepse with them hencefcrtb, and let legislation
take its regular course. Will Mr.. Phelps and his
Committee await the action Of another Of these
caucusesl
1.-The party" it seems, are at deadly feGd on
the Tar fl question. Their President cay. thai 40
increase of duties is incspensable-ths' be w,ll be
obliged to cali an Extra Sc ssion if 1t be not enacted
before this Congress expires. Even Secretary
Cobb reports that he must have more Revenue, and
that the Tariff must be so remodeled as to afford
ate caucus and resolve that no increase shall be
grapted-Penn,ylv lvapia Intellectually protesting.
The House Democracy holds caucus after Caucus
Pennsylvs with most Of the North, stsnding
sulleply aIoof-the main question beiog How Not
to Do it At length, without coming TO any cOu-
clusion on the matter in hand, the caucus amuses
itself with debating Report on Retrenchment BY
Mr.. Garrett Of Virginia.
Mr. Gsrpett it appears, proposes to redu'e tho
cost Of getting up and issuing Pobhc Documents;
to abolish The Congressional Globe; to eItinguisa
the Coast Survey and the Branch Min,s; 10 reduce
the cost Of the Army ard Nay; to cut down the
Ocean and Caitornis Overland Mails; to suspend
work on the Pubic Buildings; to limit Frsnkiog to
packages of TWO ounces weight or under; and to
have Light Houses supported hereafter BY runnsse
Duties.
Some Of these retrenchments are very proper,
ard should be made at once. We do not thiok
The Congregational Globe can well be dispensed
with, though We think it may and should be rem
dered far less burdensome to the Treasury. The
North Carolina Branch Mint is a costly huubug,
and the New Orleans hdle better. The Chef
Mint ought to be in this City, with an Assay Odi'e
as San Francisco, and auother IN the West-prob-
ably at st. Louis. The Army and Navy ought
,urel, to be cut down il not entirely cut of, and
We DOT sure that the Coast Survey is not cost
ing more than it will come to. IL there any pros
pect that it Will ever come to voluntary end
But sHspenaing work on Public Buildings would
be very poor economy. If tbese buildings are not
wanted let them be given up and cold for the most
they will bring; if they are wanted they should be
pressed vigorously to completion. To stop ~ork
on unfinished buildings is to invoke certain waste
and loss. 1t is confession Of incapacity, prodisa-
ity and bankruptcy.

THE NEWS FROM MEXICO.

The details OF the Mexican news received by
mail from New Orleans, and coming down to the
18th Of January, from the City Of Mexico, still
lrave that unhappy country in condition as unset
tied a. ever. We bave some further light upon
the second victory Of Miramon over Degoll,do,
which occurred, it seems, between Guadal.1ara
and Coms, and resulted in driving the Constitu.
tiona le ader from strong position be had occupied
and compelling his retrea. into the low county of
Michoacan, with the loss of all his artillery, the
de,erton of part of bis troops, and reduction of
bis army TO some two thousand men. The most

by the Constituiionalists would seem to be
Zacstecas, occupied BY Blanco and Coro-
nado, whence it was alleged they h.d
lately marched on San Luis Potosi, to the relief of
which Miramon bad sent detachment under com.
mand of bis brother. To tue devastation which
the City Of GusdalaIara had suffered from these
seses had been added the blowing up of the M

in their descent Buildings fences, trees. we're

midnight, and was then in full blast. About foot
