We learn, b thWt'estarn 'ails that our troop, udder Gen. Kearney, were fortify ingSantaiFe, and that a portlon of themr were'soouto pnbve towards California. Itis the intenttobof the Government to push the war with all. possible vigor. The 'rnistice for eight weeks" has been'disapproved of by the- Government, and Major Graham t will, -in -fifteen days fto-athis'day -deliver to Gen. Taylor or deitk' gahead "-to attack and destroy Anm aiia'S army, and advance towards SanLiS Potosi -Itappearethaboth Ampudia and Gen. Taylor acted under the impression that tbere was a prospect of a speedy termina tion of the war. They mitst have been ignorant That the Mexican Government ie d declined our overtures 'for 'immediate negotiation. The Gover-nment, itseems, is dissatisfied r' with Gen. Taylor's leniency tovards the Mexicans: They would have preferred that he should have taken or ,iesrroyedthe lexican army; instead of permiitting it to escape with little loss. I am vey glad to learn that iurihou sand troopsh ave been sent to reinforce 'Gen.-Taylor, ad probably with him now .making his whole furce nearsten thou sand. .--ith: this force, herWif have little to fear from any o'pposition inthe open feld ut-it Would still seem very m portant that he should be able, when arri ving at San Luis, to receive from Tampi. on any necessary supplies and refresh -men'ts Apudia will, no doubt, retire to 'San Luis, and there the great battle of this fmain-Perhaps of the .war, is to be ,cought. The Mexicans will concentrate at 'feast thirty thousand troops at that point. If Taylor should-meet with a serious re verse; which is not i:npossible, the enthusi asm of the volunteers-the force upon which we must ehiety depend, will rap idly subside. It is quite- certain that no movements towards anaexpedtition to Tampico are yet .apparent, Ilio-;hit i understood that the 'Cabinet advised the enterprise. The pub 1; will not be satisfied unless Tampico be immediately taken, and a column of eight or ten thousand men sent on from there to join Taylor at San Luis.

It is said that there are many respectable citi zoos of the Uniicd;States now confiued at hard labor in the Mexican mines fot trifling offences, probably political,. indiscretious, which have brought down the vengeance o If the Goverament upon their heads.

Major jeneral Graham left Washington this morning, in the southeiu train. with daspatches for General Tayler. It is be lieved that he carries out instructions for terminating "the tetporary cessation of hostilities." We disagree essensially in opinion with the "1altimore.C-li-pper" of this morning, upon -the propriety of this movetnanl. -Tho M'Clipper" calls it an injtdicious movement;" thinks, that time should be given, Ito ascirtain whether the Mexican. governtment is inclined to peace ; besides this force under General Taylor may not be sufficient to progress much farther with safety ;'' says that -it must be recollected that the army under General Ainpudia re mains entire; and that, if the Mexican na -tion be thoroughly roused, our army nmay be greatly out numbered. and suhjected to hazard. Hut. supposig that it should continue to achieve the victory, it tmust be at great expense of life." It adds, that our army has done enough to demonstrate its .superiority over the enemy, and incline the Mexican Government to sue for peace. Let our forces, then, rest at Monterey for the present, and until Mexico shall indicate her purpose of peace, or war ; in tbe meantime, reinforcements, &c., could be sent on to Gen. Taylor, so that he might be prepared to take the field at the expiration of the armistice, should it become neces sary. A single reverse of fortune niight prove most disastrous to our country, and should not be lightly hazarded." One would have supposed that the bat tIes of Paltn Alto and of Resaca do 'u Palma, would have been sufficient to sue for peace." Bdt Mexico was too blind and vain-glortons to feel her inferiority, even after these two memorable defeats. She may full into the same error on the present occasion, and it may be necessary to give her blow after blow,-and stun her into her senses, We have do apprehen iion of G.en. Taylor's strength or his sue eess. He has probably by this time, 10, ')00-troops at Monterey-for, other troops were on the alvance td reinforce the6000 Which he carried with liits. We do not .utate this fact unadvisedly. We are not .afraid of any force which Atnpudia can ,bring against him. The pass between f4ouatereianiW-Satillo is the only' impor. -ani obstacle which lies in our way ; and thetveuty did pieces or heavy arrillery 2ithich- ties.have wtin at Monterey, ,can -s c Iyg besubstituted by other cannon on ntountaimasses. Tiey cauuatcope with as in the opei field-,for no one now doubts, that 10.00dof our troops, the finest per hips in the world, are sulficient,.toi defeat ay foirce which the Muxicas may bring 'ahainst'us. Why, then, should we pause i. or uvicorious career? Why shoald iur forces "rest at Mlotterey for the present,' and thtus p-ermlit the tittne of our twelve mnthsb'' volunteers to wvaste away. in in action ? T1he "Clipper" dloes not do~ jus tice to the euergy arid efficieudy of tour tops. It has too many fears of their suc cess, which it unnecessarily says, -'should not lbe lig~htlty hasarded." They may be *graily. out-onumbered ;" hut we dread no suaeriority of inmbers. Their discipline, galantry aud skill, wyill overcome all such position: Mexico has as yet indicated toil slow a desire for peace. to enceourage us in any inadtitity." We must hasten liet movetdients-we must strike blowt for blow. The papers have been specuha ting upon an expedition to Tampico. We see no good reason why it shdiuldl not tie undertakten. We have still at least 20,0J trooips in the army of the Rio Grande. Allowing General Taylor's camp at Mutt terty to have one half of thertn wye have have about 10,000 more in that wing of the army, to furnish troops sufficient for a nee expedition, besides guarditng the poirds tud occupy on thte river, and main aining the connectidn hetween dts' difr'er et depots. Is the Baltiinore editor will ig to paralyze all these troops, to incur ll the expense of -,upporting them for ight wveeks, "until Mexico shall indicate er laurpose of peace or tvdr ?d' Cetainly his is not our policy. . We hope by the tme that the armistice would have expired itself, we shall see our- triumphantt flag fly ig at Chihuahua, at Satillo, atnd if the newspaper epeculators are to be believed, erhaps at Victoria.
