Troops for Gen. Seotfs Army We learn at
the Adiutant Generals Office that more than seven
thousand troops, (new regiments, and re-organIzed
companies of the old) have been sent to reinforce
the army under Major Gen. Scott; and that oftl-
cial reports have been received, which show that
nearly 5000 had arrived at Vera Cruz between
the 24th of May and 26th June, and which, we
understand, have been pushed forward to join the
advancing column of the army with all practical
bic expedition.


The entire force in advance of Vera Cruz, ope-
rating in the INTERIOR and moving in the direction
of the capital exceeds fifteen thousand. These are
of course exclusive of the garrisons at TampIco
and Vera Cruz. II is impossible to determine
what deduction should be made on account OF the
sick but, according to the best judgment OF mill
tary men, it should be put down at not less than
$500; which would make the efficient force IN
the heart OF Mexico about thirteen thousand, ex-
elusive of staff corps The army under Gen. Scott
must soon be further increased, since more than
$500 are kno,on TO be en- route for Vera Cruz;
among which SIX companies OF the Onteo
States Infantry, and several companies of marines,
&C. In addition to these, a respectable number
of troops of an effective character, ale now rails
ing, and will be promptly en- route for General
SCOTS army. ....- r..-.-.. -.., e.-re.s
