BY the papers irom the capital 10 9a6
June, received ria lampico, by the Gal.
weston, We learn that though there was II
quorum ot the members o Congress aell-
ally in the city, they had not yet been able
10 GET them together. II would, therefore,
appear, that the feporl was not correct,
that Congress had declined to treat lar
peace under the recent letter of Mr., Bueh
ouan. fhis report was published in this
city yesterday, and was said to have
reached Vera cruz, by the courier, Just as
the Galveston was leaving.


The probability Is, that such will be The

The other report, that Gen. Sect, alief
a council of War, ON the lsl Of July, had
determined 10 advance on the capital the

also incorrect, A. he had given the enemy

communication from Mr.. buchanan, AMI
ol course he wanl not attempt 10 advance,
until an opportunity was aa6r'ed 'nr The

be reasonably expected hcinro the I'd or ld

reply. Rnl in addition 10 this, the Dafia
states that lheY received Information ifam
purbla, That Cen. Seun bad postponed his
advance unIiI the 10Th, and tha, he had
detached 2l00 men, 10 protect ten Cad-
walladef'slain lbat had passed Perole, aud
