Sir.Wicra will yield to valor and intelligence displayed in former service; their confidence ia unlimited in hiro who come to there aa a, commander cov ered ly decorations won by brilliant ser vices from the gratitude of his country. Sir, they care little Cr the uame he bears; it is the uppersoaatio of the hero thai they regard, in thepersei of the gaiiaat and true soMier who is capable of lending them into any danger, and demanding of them any sacrifices. WhaU Teach the offi cers of .your army thai, after they shall have separated themselves from their homes, from the wives of their liosom and the children of their aflirt ions after they have gone into those hideous wild., under the burning sun of that faUl climate after tbey have eiposed themselves to hazards and to death in every form, that their well 1 h. ih iiwl n-rl hf their I m...w. j j services, snail Ul a monieui lie swept mmrmj j and disregarded? Is this the tieaiment which you propose towards these gallant men? " Sir, as I have said, if it is the tnrre in tention of this bill to enable, the President to confer the title upon the present com- nria nrl i n tr wiMtral it ia ulln. it ia UeleSit: he will regard it aa no cooiimcul.

Jir, i if the title be given to him it would pne- ; seSJ on charm; if indeed it were poellle 1 it in the dim and Unread fjture, it should i i It j - r n -j i 1 be the design of Providence, by a course of almost unheard-f miracles, that be i should reach an eminence equal to that of the saviour of his COt U try :f be should become to be considered by the peop'e of; ,. . , . ! his country worthy to War the tnle of the j second a4lingtou, and it. should then he ; tendered to him as a token of his country's approbation, as the best reward short of ,i ' . i. , i , , l. the rewards, which belong to another orld under these circumstances, so ten- dered, he. might consider it an object oft honorable distinction; but sir, now going there to take command of this army, beri i i . wojld regard it as no distinx-tion: and, sir, ' let me assure the honorable Senator from ; New York that, unless I am greAlv de cctvrd. he misunderstand, and the Presi- ; d, t.l .i i- i -i ,i ,l 1 ent, d the veut etin uiloses rightly the o J ; viewa of tlie President, he niitunderstands the feeling of that gallant band of officers, if he supposes that they would be willing, by this uncertain pnth, this devious course, to turn the flank of a noble commanding geoerml, and allow auother to be put over him. The homwable Senator fnrn N. York read certain passages from Mexican pub lications. I listened to ll eni with atten tion mud with inlere.t. I was gratified that tbe honorable Senator sboti!d hare for a short lime occupied the Senate with the translation which he was kind enough to give us of the sentiments existing iu Mex ico, and the views they entertained in re gard to this war; but, Ibr my soul, sir. I was totally unab!e to see, with every di poeition to discover, what there was in those extracts to aflict in the slightest de- gree the merits or the measure now under . i - i t. M the consideration of the Senate. From some of these extracts we learn that, in situations where one would scarcely have expected them, voting bands of banditti were engaged in inflicting serious injury .i i- t- 11 upon the cabin, of the peasants, and that the persons of travellers were not safe- Sir, a lieutenant general will scarcely cx tend his protection over travellers who may be assailed, or the dwellings of peasant, ... . P, which may be molested. AuHher extract miorms us oi trie sentiments ot the great body of the Mexican peop!e, and I dare say it does reflect them trulr. If ihey are truly represented, I must be perrnittr-d to . 1 .. . . pciuimcu 10 say mat tbe sentiments thev entertain are noble and patriotic. I believe when it o. su.mirai.on lor the men who avowed wh 1 . . . . . sentiments, impressing us with the belief that we are contending against a noble foe, un.e worthy of our steel. The con nexion of this matter, however, with the appointment of a lieutenant general, I was i t ."Pon c" od 1l-un: aud you fii, TV . , . , the failnre sj a enme as well aa a blunder: and. if totally unable tocomprebend; but, a, I have ,, mwt, you trr inotbted "Xot7 already said, and endesvefed to show, the to Fortune, who, ia her capricious distribmuoa of efficient prosecution of tlie war depends, , fjvora, sometimes beotoas them upon Ammsj who not at all upon the title of the commander, ' dwn' Utrnu but upon his personal qualifications.

There ie priests of Mexico, and the aristocracy who Yut !" i","ace our lusiery im which Uia. office adhere to them, if the-.,, it,- 3 has been conferred. The occasion of eonfrrriMg h I ,, ' . 'rth? ''f Ule ""cy. : ad. .loue: tor there has beea but one Waahiug- eu, sir, i aiscover in these two papers one ainerence tbe difference is this: that . .. i whereas tbe body of the people call us a wicked nation S.ui. AI u J wk aed nation, banu Anna calls us a per- ! i.uiovs one. cut, whatever difference of opinion there may be in re card to ourselves. I there IS but one sentiment in rerarri tn iho ' n" oeierminatton to provide for the defence and tbe protection of tbeir country, and a refusal tu treat while our troops oc Mipy any portion of her territory. I con. fess however, thai when I heard the paper .. j . .. . . u, hj .earnea irom tbe honorable Sena. I tor that it was no douU a paper whicb ( fpoke the view. ..f Satit Anna and those I who were prompted by his influence; when I thought of it when I recollected, sir, by whose agency Santa Anna was enabled to ibrust himself upon the arena; when I re. collected lhat he went there in consequence o orders from tbe President that our squad, ron should be asleep when he passed; when I recollected the hopes which were enter, tamed from the circumstance of his re-ets-ering Mexico, and the wretched return be made fne ik. f- L k Jt ' I ...c ...vr c UBWm.c,,ro, , con. r n T"1 " U,attBe traJlsaction would) iad aeting upon my own respomabiliry; and be -mlly justify- a vote of want of confidence of I lieviag this to be wrong looliHig upon it as either Lis 8enau in one, and perhaps in both, of the parties in that transaction. But, Mr. President, there was a disclosure which came from the honorable Senator from New York, in a reference made ly him, that I confess alarmed me In some degree. The views which 1 had taken up previous. I v to the introduction of this measure, were Hwnded on the diflereat passible modes that "'ght be resorted to for; ailing this office after we hare created U, 'UK 1 learn from the honorable Senator Irynt New York that no such stale of Uncertainty evi.t. and that the very pHtrpoae oa the part of the Presidevst ia asking us fir the creation ef the office is, tUat a eivilisa, epolHWjiaa, may receive the anpoiatneai that some aiaa sbeuW be Wed fe B1V aertbe, keoreWe thaler, rM , strictly military appoiiannr., wt neverdteless expected discharge the duties ntTnrrUinrag ehrV apttmenfc--a offioer whose ftincH dimes are expected a be thua Which 4s toot belong le a. luilrtnvy wan.
