ARRIVAL OF GEW. SCOTT AT BRAZOS. Delay in‘ forwarding Munitions of War: PREVIOUS INTELLIGENCE CONFIRMED. The Policy of Mexico. dic. dice See ( Wasninaton, Jan. 12. The. U.S. steamer Edith has arrived at New Orleans. She loft Brazos 30th ult., and brings a confirmation of the reported advance of Senta Auna, with a large force, ‘upon Saltillo. ‘Tho Mexican army was reported nearly 30,000 strong! Gen. Taylor was only six or eight miles on his march to Victoria, when Gen. Worth’s express reached Mon- terey. The troops under Twiggs and Quitman, were but 12 miles in advance. Orders were immediately issued to this division to Totrace their steps, and proceed immodiately to Saltillo. Gen Butler had already marched, with all the troops he could colleot, to join Gen. Worth. Gen. Lane started for Saltillo, with his command, on the 26th. Marshall set out the next morning with the remainder of the forces. Except Hunter and Swartwout’s command, the troops | from Camargo are rushing on by forced marches,to reach | Saltillo in time forthe battle. Reports had prevailed, before positive advices were re- | ceived, of the movements of Senta Anna | Gen. Wool was only 90 miles from 89" lo at last advi cos. Itwas supposed he would join ¥ vrth in season to assist in repelling the enemy. Arumor that Santa Anna had thrown 17,000 men be- tween Worth and Taylor, to prevent a junction of the Amorican forces, was not credited. An impression provailed among the passengers in the Edith that a battle was fought about the 25th. It was thought, however, that the American fore above mentioned had reached Sa'tillo before that time. If #0, Generals Taylor and Worth had about 7,000 men to oppose Santa Anna’s army, which was believed to heve been overrated. The whele valley of the Rio Grande was ina state of great ferment ; apprehensions of attacks being erter- tained at Camargo, Matamoras, and other po from the Rancheros under Canales. At Matamoras, enrol themselves for eervice; ani at Brazos, General Jessup had done the same thing. Both points were sadly deficient iu arma and wen It was thought Canales had 2,000 men. General Scott arrived at the Brazos on the 28th ult., and proceeded to the mouth of the Rio Grande on the fellowing dey, where Le was waiting the arrival of horses belonging to the regiment of mountod riflemen, whin the Edith left [It was understood he would then proceed immediately to Camargo. It was believed that an express had beon sent to Gen eral Patterson, countermanding bis march in the direc- atthe mouth of the Brazos ile’, and wili probably bring us more definite intelligence in a few doys. Aletier inthe Picayune, of the 5th, dated Camargo 19ik Dec., (12 o'clock at night) puts to rest all doubts as to the facts in the advices expressed by Gen. Worth at Beltilio, aunouncing the march of a large Mexican force. The lotter in detail all the facts above stated. Brig Oneco arrived at New Orleans, 4th inst, from Anton Lizardo 20th Dec. She brings nothing later than we had by the Potomac at Pensacola. A letter in the Picayune, dated Tampico, 28d Dec., from areliable source, confirms the report thet the Mexican Congress have decided that the war ehall not cease jor will they receive cominissioners to treat for peace until every hostile fot has left the soil of Mexico, and every ship that limes the coast ia withdrawn. They have further resolved that they will accept ne | foreign intervention whaicver to bring about a peace. This cenfirms provious statements, of tho truth of | which doubts have been expressedin certain quarters. CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS. Wasuinaton, Jan. 12, 1847. Senate.

A directs tax would be objectionable on many eccounts, one o which is, that it would bring tLe citizens of the different States and the federal pereramens into thet most unplea- sont of ail relations, debtor and creditor. Moreover, in several States, such as Pennsylvania, Maryland, Indians, and others, the State Governments, in order to redcem or to retain their credit, have alieady laid aslerge a texas the people can conveniently bear, and an additional one would be apt to become extremely unpopular. Tho war ie not of that character which would call fob the imposition of excise duticn If we were at war with 4 commercial nation like Great Brit whose interests would suffer by the imposition of excive duties, it would be another affuir. The policy would then have a two- | fold object—injuring the enemy and raising revenue But Mexico caanot be at all incommoded ia that way, nor does there seem to be at present auch an exigency as to warrant or require the imposition of a direct tax should never be resorted to untilevery other measure shall have failed. Mr. Walker will not be prepared for two or three days to report in answer to the enquiry instituted some days since by the Senate, es to what articles will bear an in- crease of duty, aud whut amount of revenue they would bring. His report will be a very important one, as it will be seen from it whether revenue can be obteined from an increase of duty ou the articles embraced in the present tariff The Secretary is not disponed to recom: mend an increased duty of five per cent all round, es this would give up the question of the tariff, and he thinks re venue can he obtained by other means—neither is he in favor of an excise syatem, or one of direct taxation. It is dificult to tell what revulsion may take place in favor of toa and coffee, but it is the general impression at present that it will not succeed even among a list of other free articles, and ut a lower rate than twenty-five cent. There ia, by the way, an erroneous impression prevaleni, that tea and coffee are little used at the south, ‘The article of coffee is, in peopuition to the : op- ulation, used to agrester «x ent in most of the southera States thanin the Northern. in several southern States the people use it at every meal, aud it would seem to be as much the interest 0! tho southern members to op) 4 tex upom tea and coffee as wf those from the northern States.

The Senate to-day had a long discussion upen the question whether the Senate ox the Vice President should namo the pro tempore presiding officer, the Vice Presi | dent being sick.
