 THe .americGn ReUietc for September. opens with an article on s' War with Mexic0," abound ing in just views and striking illustrations. The writer denies the right of the President (not Con gIess) to send U. s. troops at all into Texas, while Annexation remains unconsummated, and very strongly sustains his position. He says:

 "To send U. S. troops into any part of Texas, when Mexico had as yet, made no demonstration for its reconques, seemed very much m the nature of provocation or challenge to Mexico to come on but to send them specially to that part of the territory which s in dispute, and which, even Ii the offer of Mexico to recognize the independence 0 not, without negotiation and compromise, have been included within its limits, seems the very wantonness of bravado.

 If it were insulting to Mexico, it was not less derogatory to the Congress of the United States, which passed the joint resolutions of Annexation: for, by those resolutions, the adjustment cf all questions of boundary that may arise with other vernments,"-which, in this connection. can on- ly mean the President and Senate-in other words. the aty.making poWer."

 On another point of great prospective interest, he says:

 "The Government has studiously endeavored to represent this war as involving only our, (aii0s the Texan) right to the territory inquestion-leav- ing out of view entirely the Indian claim to the same territory Of course, the Indian. though an original is an obsolete claim, and nothing could be more offensive to the eyes of Loco.FocO- Texan ism than the assertion of it. We do not propose to assert anything other than facts, however un- pleasant they may chance to be to " the Democra- cy.'' The Texans wrested their territory first, foot by foot, from the coast tribes as they advanced into the interior, tribe after tribe went down be- fore them in their westward march, even to Bexar or San Antonio. Here Texas politicians were baf- fled. The country westward to the mountains was in the hands of the Comanches, and this country must be obtained at whatever risk! convention of the chiefs were called to meet at San Antonio. They came in good faith, with their squaws and

 

 result. Like wild beasts in pen, they were slaughtered, man, woman and child, with one or two exceptions, in the square of BeXar and the exceptions were those who lived in spite of bull lets. And these are the people we are to treat am icably with and who, to use the language of late correspondent of the Union, are not so very for midable !" It is by the publication of such docu- ments that the Administration arc trying to blind the eyes of the people. This person, who has ev- idcntly been on the ground, endeavors to make il | appear that in the event of a war, these savage tribes are to be regarded as comparatively insigni6 cant. We claim to know something about that re. zion of the world ourselves and we say that as. serton from party claiming personal knowledge of the facts could be wifuly false than this. So far from being true. the Comanches are the most numerous and relentless of the savage foes with whom we have been compelled to dispute our territory, and in the event of their being furnish cd with arms, must prove altogether the most for midable! As yet. they have few guns amongst them, and their principal weapons are the lance and bow; but they have been accustomed to fire. arms of every kind, (particularly, since the Tex an Santa Te expedition,) and are peculiarly saga. cious and expert in avaling themselves of any im- provements in the art of war which may fall in their way. To superficial observers-such as the correspondent of the Union-they appear to be cowardly, from the fact that they are wise enough to know the inferiority of their own weapons, and keep cautiously out of the range of those of the Americans. Like all people whose trade is war, they know the value of warrior, and do not will fully risk the loss of one In all the heroic vir- tues and energies of the savage, no people ever ex- isted superior to them. Their tactics are exceed ingly subtle; they prefer the Parthian mode of flying fight, and are wonderfully quick in their ma nauvres. So far as activity and skill in horse- manship are concerned, they are the best cavalry the world has ever seen, not excepting the Name luke and they are mounted on horses of the same strain, the genealogy of which is as carefully guarded as by any Nomad of Sahara. They are, in word, the Arabs of the West mounted on horses of the same blood, of the same unconquera. ble game and speed, and are possessed of far more vindiciive ferocty than characterizes their Oren- tai brothers. They number from fffeen tO tscenty M0asand scdrvi0rs! Since the massacre at San Antonio, they have been righteously the sworn and uncompromising foes of our race. They hove lost all faith in us, and never c0n be propitiated again-at least, many years must intervene before they will regain confidence On their swift and untiring horses, they can sweep down from the valleys among the spurs of the Rocky Mountains, levastae the lowlands, and retreat to their fast. nesses with impunity. It will always be an acci- dent when our horsemen succeed in overtaking them. They require nothing but arms to make them fearfuly formidable. In case of war, how long will it he, before arms are placed in their hands ," " ...-'"s,. ... <. THE PROSPECT OF WAR.

 The .Neto Orleans Bulletin of the Sd, thus specuates on the chances of War with Mexico :-

 The arrival froIs Tampico. published yester- day, exhibits Mexican afiairs in posture as favor able as could be expected for peace. The re.elec- ton of Herrera, the present incumbent, as Presi- dent, being considered probable, is altogether aus picious. For. notwithstanding the buster that has been made about war, it is well known that the present Executive was strongly disposed to the continuance of peace. An evidence of pacific in. teniions is furnished in he late dissolution o: the Mexican Cabinet, from which both Cuevas and Garcia Condo were turned out the two ministers were the most active and zeaous in Drrinp hostili
