Then her Tariff, made for the

Give US light, is now the cry Of the
Senators. Accordingly, highly i'm
portant resolution has been put before
the Senate, by Mr.. Dayton, calling on
the President for his opinion whether
an increase of our navy and army is
necessary, in reference to the state Of
our foreign relations, and, if SO, his
reasons for the opinion. This will
give new aspect to the discussion Of
that body.


lfthe President neither designs nor
expects renewal of negotiation, will
it not be incumbent on Congress to
make preparations for defence? Will
they not begin with the fnances-our
weakest point-as Mr.. Calhoun advi-


1t is the impression OF all who have
carefully read the late advices from
France and England, that "war Of
systems," however much deprecated
here, is in the contemplation OF Euro
pean powers, in regard to this country
and that Oregon, or California, or
any thing else, may be the pretext for
it. We escaped it on the Texas ques-
ton, but our success in that matter
will not be forgiven. There is com
bination in Europe against the acqui-
sition, by the United States, of any
territory in Mexico. Mr.. SIdell's
mission will be foiled. We have am,
pie evidence Of this.


There are means by which the u.
States might greatly embarrass the
movements Of European powers on
this subject. Arista, with a little aid,
could at once revolutionize and rcn-
der independent all the northern States
Of Mexico. Mr.. Buchanan was ap-
piled to, d few days ago, to furnish, in
aid of Arista's projec,, seven thousand
muskets, and he promptly refused. II
is no secret that his reply was, that
there was no money at the disposal of
the department-the secret service
fund being exhausted. But, indepen.
IDENTITY of this reason, he did not think
it became the government Of the Uni
ted States 10 interfere in this matter.

Mexico.


The correspondent of the New
York Telegraph writes:


"The administration considers the
state ofthings in Mexico as extremely
crilical-more SO by far than at any
other time since the annexation of
Texas. An agent has been sent
down, with instructions to Mr.. Slidell
to demand reception forthwith, and
