MISCELLANEOUIS. From the New Orleans Picayune. TUJE ROUTE TO MEXICO. i After many weeks and even months of t speeplationas taLthe probable duration of 1 the war, the pnhlic~nindis setting downI a long.and wearisome struggle. Great ? hopes of peace wete built op at the North t upon the anticipated action of Santa An na, should he regain power in Mexico. I Now the confident belief here is that our t overtures for peace has been rejected' by I him, or. what is equivaler.t. have been re- t ferred to a Congress to assemble in Mexi co next December. So there is no hope in that quarter of a cessation of hostilities. By the arrivals ot Friday reports reach ed the city both from the camp of General Taylor and of General Wool that the fu ture movements would depend upon new orders from the War Department ; that they would lie inactive while an attempt should be made by negotiation to bring hostilities to a close; We place no faith whatever in this report, and now that the Mexican Govornment exhibits no disincli nation to the war, we see nothing in pros pect for us but a vigorous prosecution of hostilities by every means in our power. Under these circumstances, it is natural I enough that the publi: should begin to 1 question the policy of the mode of warfare I which we have hitherto pursued. Thus far since the*commencement of the war our Government has adhered rigorously to the "soothing system." This policy was eminently humane, and in this aspect worthy a Christian nation and the civiliz ation of the ninteteenth century. But what1 efect has it had upon the Mexicans whom it was designed to conciliate ? All accounts gree that they have become more and more embittered, and are patiently and hopefully waiting for some reverse to oc-. cur to our troops before fallitng upon them. Those who were familiar with the Mexi can character foreaw'and foretold this; all are now satisfied on that bead. 'The next question ii, bowshall the war he carried on hencefoih ? Cottnedted 'iith this sohject, we liavo beeni Interested in reading an" article 'in the Courrier des Eatsatnis, in woich the editor speculates upon what he thinks the most obvious po licy of Santa Anna. 16e ventures to pre dict that Santa Anna, seeing: that there is no 'hope of obtaIning peace-save by the cession of the Californias and all the coun try on the eastern bank of the Rio Grande, will obstinately reject our overtures. Mex ico, lie reasons, has everything to gain from delay and nothing to louse by pursu in - th'e war. -Should Mexico meet with further riverseu, still the tertms which the United States would exact would hardly demancftnore thap ihe surrender of the Californias arid ttie: country. which. we have already c:onquered; if, on the other hand, Santa -ina should gain some suc cess, less onerous terms would. be imposed upon him To sum up, thistemporizing policy Costs'Mexico almost nothing and leaves her at liberty to iinyrove any favor iile opportunity for striking a blow ; while itis -ruidous to the United States on the scoreof expensessaed disarpoints the beptes of the people. The. policy ihb the Courrietnpredicted Santa Anna would pur .ue,it is sow deemed.certain, that bie has adopted by rejecting overtures of peace. .W/tt then is to be done!i all are pek ig. .eenega1. !Jyir is pressng on upon Monterey andt halt tlo, and these' ill fall into: 's poweriTbie only question is. -e ieor not tieJMxleas will make a Gen, Wool sod Gen.. Kearney will prove yet easier. and all these successes cannot be very remote. Bat as it is plain that these achievements will bring the ivr no Dearer to a torminfation, what is the next step to be taken ?-we hope soon to hear from Washington an indication of the course to be pursued. We would have wished that a difiarent description of'force had been used'. to in vade Mexico. In a country so notoriously deficient in s'ipplies; the invading force ought to be concentrated as 'much as pos sible. We moana that it ought to be com posed of well cisciplined troops. atbicb are in efficiency, to say the least in proportion of one.,to two, when. compared with raw Volunteers;--and it ought to be provided c with well trained artillerists,"and the best a rdnance and ordnance officers. Who that has attentively considered the details of e he brilliant victories gained by our gallant t irmy on the banks of the Rio Grande, will c all to perceive that they are due more to be superior skill and science and'material ii if that chosen band, than even to their s uperior energy and courage. If this de- a isive superiority in skill, science.discipline p md material were to be maintained during ho campaign, and carried through the c ong and arduous march that lies before t hem, we should feel as much confidence is any one in the entire success of the In- I rauion. But, under the most favorable 4 ircumstances, we should think it the part ri f wisdom to provide at once the means of a: einforcing our several livisions with dis- b iplined troops. Such a measure may be ome necessary,even,alt hough every blow it hould prove a victory; and if such rein- k orcements are to join the army after it.has i airly entered the Mexican territory, theyt nust move forward with all the organiza- tI ion of a regular army; not rush into the o ield poll mell, as may be done with impu- n lity within our own borders. At present, d re are nearer to our own resourses than a he ?Mexicans are to theirs; but every day's fi narch into the enemy's country will re erse this odvan age. i But it is time to hring this article to a b lose. We are embarked in a war which ti re all desire shc-uld be terminated speed: S ly and as gloriously as it commenced; b ind to produce these results we must coo- I inue to collect men and materials in such ti tositions as may be most advantageous to it . in ' h el n etply m ur generals with the means of maintaining e heir superiority, and follnwing tip their uccesses promptly and vigorously. We' p ire engaged in a struggle with a weaker a adversary and must overcome him; but a et us take care irn doing so to exhibit con-. inually and conclusively our superiority n n science, skill and force. We must con- b uer a peace with Mexico; and let us put r ill our strength to do so speedily. We ti aught not to count upon their dissentions n is a means of terminating this war. The i ontending factions will unito their force v igainst us. We must not calculate upon r :ompelling submission, by occupying their e emote settlements and hartassing their o !ommerce Mexico will be less injured >y such a proceeding than the comniercial ttions that traded with her, ourselves irnong the number; and that government lerived no advantage from its distant pos- e essions. It will be hazardous to invade d uch a country as we have endeavored to lescribe, in order to penetrate to the cap p tal and dictate a peace there, without n saving on foot a thoroughly disciplined;, vell organized and perfectly appointed I irmy.
