THE MEXICAN News. The further details by
the New Orleans, all GO to confirm our pre-
vious BELIEF that there was no prospect Of peace,
and that the report of tho appointment of Com
missioners by The Mexican Government is un.
founded. II is true, that on the lth, the report
Of the probability of peace, was very current at
Puebla but it does not appear that there were any

The expedition of Col. DrRussey, from Tam
pico, appears generally to be considered very i'll

he took with him only lis men. No other but
disastrous result could have been expected, with
such small force, attempting to march l30 miles
into an enemy's country-we think there must
be some mistake on this point, particularly from
the list of the different companies which were
stated at the time Of its departure as composing
the expedition
