Though no direct acc ounts have been received
in New Orleans, from the city of Mexico and the
information from Vera Cruz is rather meagre in
its Details we feel full confidence IN the general
correctness of the adVces by the Fashion.


We believe that Gen Scott had arrived before
the city-that there had been an action, in which
the Mcxicans had been routed and repulsed-that
they had applied for cessation Of hostites and
that negotiations were going forward. Every
thing besides the above we look upon as mere ru-
NOR, and we particularly place no confidence in
the report that Santa Anna and Valencia were
prisoners. t-r,aaE t5s-az --a =.
AS to the subject of the negotiation, we greatly
fear it is only regards the city and the Mexican
army, and has reference to treaty Of peace,
though one of the reports states that the Mexcans
! had expressed willingness to receive M:. Trist,
which would favor the idea that the negotiations
were connected with treaty, and not merely for
the surrender of the city, which matter would be
under the exclusive management of Gen. Scott as
the military commander, with which Mr.. Trist
could not interfere. ..'. 49, ......
| We sincerely hope that the opportunity will not
| be lost for closing the war, by negotiations of
! treaty, which think can probably be effected
on favorable TERMS whilst the government and
people are under the state of allrm which appears
to exist in the capital, in consequence of the ap
proach and actual presence of the American army.
If however, these negotiations have only for their
object the surrender of the city, and its occupation
by the American troops, we shall consider the
prospects OF peace more remote than ever, par
tcularly if the enemy's army and government
are allowed to leave the capital. The moment
they get over their present panic, and see their
capital quietly occupied by our troops. without
any particular disastrous consequences following,
they will get rcconced to the new state of affairs
preterrng to trust to the chapter of accidents for
some favorable turn in affairs, and will refuse to
negotiate, except on terms that will be inadmiss-
able ... . ...... ...... .......


We hope that Gen. Scott and Mr. Trist will,
therefore, make hay whilst the sun shines, and not
allow themselves to be deceived aud triled with
by the crafty opponents with whom they have 10
deal and that they will listen to proposals. except
such have peace for their basis declaring that
they will enter into terms, as regards the city
and army, on any other conditions. 1t will prove
to be grave error if they lose sight of the main
object, by simple negotiation for the surrender
OF the city and terms for the military, and it will
prove to be an error which cannot be corrected
Our anxiety for further advices is not as regards
the actual capture of the city (for of that, we fee!
we'll assured,) but for the turn the negotiations
will take, and on which we think the question of
peace or war depends. IF treaty was not signed
within one week after Gen. Scott appeard before
the city, shall give up all hopes of that event
for long period. .... r. . l... ...r.


If no special messenger is, previously received
from Gen. Scott, at Vera Crvz the British courier
that will arrive at this latter place. on the lst Sent


WILL no doubt, bring decisive advices, and which
we may expect here early in the ensuing week.
