PROSPECTS OF PEACE.
Wo see it stated in m letter from Wash
ington, that it is confidently believed there
by the Administration! that Mexico will,
ere long, sue for peace. God grant, it
may be so j but we have no idea that such
will be the case. . The only guides rby
which to arrive at tha feeling of Mexico
upon the subject, is found in the. address-
cs and conduct of her recognized leaders,
the public men. of the nation, 'and these all
plainly declare, in the most emphatic Ian
guage, that Mexico is determined not to
have peace so long' as our Army remains
upon her soil that so far .as in her lies,
the war on her part shall be one of exter
mination.'. We know that the "manifes
toes1' and tho proclamations", of some 'of
the Mexican Generals, are ordinarily com
posed of a large proportion oljlcind, bull
the whole conduct of her people, her pri
vate as well as public citizens, go strongly
to enforce the belief , that there is in the
Mexican nation a determined-spirit of re
sistance, and that when she succumbs, it
will be from shwer necessity. Thisisjusi
tho way the "land lies" in; regard, to peace,
let the wise ones at VVashington say.4what
they may. - We do riot lelleve Mexico
ever come to terms until die is forced ly ike
direst necessity , '.1 . "
We see it stated thai Gen, Scott Vill
shortly have in the -'field twenty-five'or
thirty thousaufl rnerL This f is; doing the
thing about right. " Give htm men enough,
and lha Mexican people will tocn- bo
brought to iheir sober senses, and .to " see
that they have every thing to lose ard i:6in
ing to gain by the protracti6n of the war,.
Had the. war been, ; prosecuted .from the
comincncemcnjt ;wiih a proper degreo of
energy, there, can be no doubt it would
have greatly accelerated its close. '
. FROM THE N. C. REGIMENT.
We have a letter from a member of the
Buncombe Company", dated Sept. 16, from
which we learn that ihe h.cahh.of tho Re
giment generally is prelty good, though an
occasional death reminded tho , troops that
they were in a land where the grim mon
ster made his demands at. all hours and
from all classes. The writer informs us of
the death of Corporal Ro'bcrt T. Rhea, of
compapy K. .The following is an extract
from the letter:
Corporal Robe rt T. Rhea , of Compa ny
K, died. on the morning of the-14ih, of
Typhoid fever, in the 22d year 'of his age.
He had. been sick about two weeks. , Thus
in youth, and in the midst of usefulness,
with a heart burning with .patriotic devo
tion fo his country, he has been taken from
this to a better world. Ho retained his
senses to the last, and though conscious of
hir approaching dissolution was perfectly
satisfied and seemed to entertain no fear
for future happiness. His moral cHaracier
was urympeachable, ; and it" may bb some
consolation to his surviving parents, rela
lions and friends, to know that he had ev,
cry attention paid him that could be afford,
cd in camp." , .
