While the war is even ifthe plan be rejected. There are some Points, however, upon which | cen speak. My plan re- quired a head to the army—a head to the whole of the forces, which would blend the whole into one consistent body. The President appeared to be satisfied. ‘The only Guestion was how to execute the object. The plandid not receive the concurrence ef the two highest officers not mean to read that school which rec ause I do not ef the army; and it is a fundamental law in milita that no offio-r shall be required to exe- cute a plan to which he is opposed. The creation now officer was then the solution. The A it Was competent to the President from his c! military character. He is at the head of the army as he is at the head of the jovernment. But he could not, in person, place himse! the head of the army in of at Masiens ‘The creation of an officer superior to that of ‘ajor General,and inferior to that of commander-in-ohie! peared to be the poper rig et it wos ‘dene. the forbade my friends to fere in my behaif. I did not remind "ay stdeent best friends of any thi ug in my favor. I did not remind them, sir. I did not mention the fect that in 18191 wesa military superior officer to every general officer now in the service. I was ut the head | of @ regiment of volun- teers, raised by myself, and commissioned by Presideat Madison, and afterwards | marched down to the Lower Mississippito join Gen. Jackson at New Orleans. But, even as the apuuiatment of a civilian, there could be no constitutional objection. ‘The constitution has placed a civil officer at the head of the army; the Sppointment be- longs to the President and to this body, and he may give it to whom he pleases. Nor was President Polk the frst man to make me this offer. In 1836, President Jackson told me, sir, that if a war took place; he would lace me at the heed of the army. | never would Rave mentioned theso things, but to quiet the mis representations about it, having’ scored to, do it then, and only oping to do it sow, in vin- dication of the President of the United States. My own plan of the campaign had nothing to do with | this project of the Lieutenaut General, as represented to the Senate. I would have nothing to do with a moderate war, or a wor of “masterly inactivity,” or @ war upon a line of occupation, or a war of @ retreat to the Rio Grande, or » war of investment of the castle of St. Juan Ulloa, in the season of the black vomit. No, air, I ld not consent to be your Lieutenant General, or tain General, or Colonel General, or apy otber kind i eeceral anon Lees of the ea:th, upon any Gf plans of conducting the war. I may not speak at large of the plan which [ submitted to the President, but I may speek of itin several points. 1 propowed that the war should bo conducted as between civilized nations—that we should levy centributions upon the country, which should regularly be accounted for. Another Teature was, that the olive branch should go with the sword— thata diplomatic commission should be established at the head quarters of the army, ready at any moment to act upon @ movement or an indication for peace. Mr. Benton described the two parties in Mexioo—the mave of the people being for peace, but tho few having all the sinews of war, coercing the great body of the people into the war. ‘All sorts of fabrications, misrepresenta- tions, and falsehoods were resorted to, to inflame the prejudices of the Mexican population. The war is reprosented to them ss a war against their re- i the Anglo-Saxon against the a war in which the Indian race will become the slaves of the piratical invaders of the North. ‘The passions and prejudices of every class are appealed to. There was a difficulty in a state of war, almost insur- mountable of refuting such fabrications; but Mr. B. thought -the duties which weuld fall upon the Sale. matic commission at the head of the army, would place it in our power to refute these calumnies in an authentic way, and to satisfy the Mexicans that we only wanted justice at their hands—that wo did not make war upon their religion, or their race, or their institutions, but against the provocations of their government. He de sired that Mexico should remain an independent nation, for the sake of the republican family of nations on this continent, and because Mexico had copied our institu. tions, and had at the very time she is engaged in her war with us, restored the constitution of "24, based upon our should be disposed of in any way for less than par and - interest. Agreed to. Mr. Huntinaton moved an amendment to limit the au- thority to issue treasury notes to eighteen months after the passage of the bill. This was opposed by Messrs. Speight, Cameron, Bagby and others. The amendment was rejected—yeas 23, nays 29. Mr. Evans moved to amend the bill so as to limit the authority of re-issue only to such notes as may be re- ceived in payment of public dues prior to maturity. After debate by Messrs. Cass, Clayton, Bagby, Man- gum, Speight, Evans, and Westcott, the amendment was Tejected, 24 to 25. Mr. Suamons then offered an amendment to extend se. curity of public lands to treasury notes as well issued under the act; but after debs 6 would withdraw the amendment for that offered by Mr. Westcott, to af- fordopportunity to move to strike out the whole section pledging public lands for paying public debt. After the rejection of this, and one or two other amend- ments proposed and adopted, with an additional section requiring the Secretary of the Treasury to report to Con gress at tho commencement of next session all done by him under this act, the bill was ordered to be engrossed for a third reading, and the Senate adjourned. House of Representatives. Mr. Ellett, the now member from Mississippi, ¢{Mr. Jefferson Davis, was qualified and took hi On motion of Mr. Born, the Heuse went into Commit- tee of the Whole on the bill to increaso the pay of, and grant bounty lands to, regulars and voiuntoers of the army. Messrs. McDowext, of Ohio, Hanmanton, Wicx, Ro- place Boy, and sundry others, addres Amendments were proposed. The committee then proceeded to vote on the amend. ments, some of which were adopted, changing material. y the features of the bill.

The day has been one of great interest in the Senate The military was laid over and the loan bill taken up; not so much from the pressing necessitios of the Gove tn- ment, as from the fact that no decision has been had ut caucus as to what isto be done with the military bill and the land bounties, and the volunteers, and Gen. Tay- lor, and all that. We expect the loan bill will at it occupy all the day to-morrow. The exposé of Col.

Mr. B then proceeded to to show that the hypothesis of the Senator from rolina, assuming that appointment of the Lieutenaut-General was intended the virtual nomina: | tion by the President of his successor in office, to be un- | founded—that there wi not the slightest foundation for it. At the beginning of Septembor Inst, Mr. B. said he { was sent for by the President of the United Statex.

Again, ina military peint of | view, the plan of Col. B. designed a head to the army, who should know the Mexican charsater—the elements of defence of the country invaded, and the e of the black vomit on the coast, which begins when the north winds cease to blow, and which only stops when the northers set in; and that he should also know the confi- | guration of the mountains, and the volcanic defiles, and | impassable gorges; and a soldier, moreover, should | make the field of war his bed, the front of the enemy his theatre of action, and, if essential, the lofty summits of the Cordilleras his monument and his grave. THE LOAN BILL. Mr. Lewis moved to take up the House bill for 000.000 in loans and troasury notes. The govern- ment had not the means of meeting its liabilities; and it was necessary that the bill should be passed without de- day. Nar. Brwron said he had had a conversation with the Chairman on Finance, and assented first to the oonsidera- tian of the loan bill. The military bill and the loan bili were heed important; but the latter was absolutely indis- ensablo. » Mr. Huntinaron asked for a single day for the consider- ation of the bill before it should be taken up in the Senate. But os the Chairman on Finance had said the public cre- dit required that this bill should be possed at once, he would like to have the Chairman state the necessities of | the case. | | Mr Lewrs said he had received a letter from the Socre- tary of the Troasury urging the immediate passage of the | dill, as a measure of immediate necessity. s | _Mr. Evans did not consider the public faith as entirely | exhausted. He hoped the bill would be passed over till | tomorrow, when he proposed to say something upon it. | Mr. Sexiamr thought that every Senator had had tine tomake up his mind upon this bil. “It was imperatively | required that the bill should be speedily passed. The | bill had been discussed in the Howse, and he doubted not every Senator knew tie character of the bill. Mr, Evans had not seen the bill till half an hour ego, | and as to the discussion in the House, no discussion had been allowed. It had been hurried through the House without the privilege of discussion. Mr. Sreicut — .]—So much the better for the it ment xs said he had warned the other side, amon, | his last words at the last session, that the first bill whic | they would be required to pass at the prosent session, would be a bill to borrow money. He foresaw it, th most distinetly. But we were told by th | the Treasury that all his financial meas: | canged, and thet such un alternative as this need not be dreaded. I said then, what | say now, that your first act | at the present session ought to have been to borrow mo- ney. But your Secretary in his report of the ; resent ses. sion, told us that he would require no loans till about | the first of the spring, and that again, in the summer, ho might require some tour millions.

The detoils of such a bill wore highly important. He so regarded them. He want- ed to look into them, and because of their imporatnce, | he wanted to see what they were. (Question, ques: tiow!

The Vick Paxsivent decided in the afirmative,and the Loan and Treasury Note bill from the House was taken ‘ap and read through for information. Mr. E desired the chairman on Finance to make hi exposition. Mr. Lewis moved to strike out that provision of the | 19th section which limits the Secretary of the Treasury in the purchase of these stocks to their par value Mr —Shallhe be authorised to pay moro than par? ir, we want him to take them at their x —More than their par value? How if ‘o under par ? Mr. Lewis withdrew hs amendment. A PAIR EXCHANGE PROPORED Mr. Nivea moved to amefid the 4th section, which au thorises the Secretary to hypothecate these loans w the basis of the Treasury notes, by striking out that clause, and inserting a provision authorising the Sécreta ry to exchange notes not under par for such suas of money as the President may deem advisable Mr. Lewis contended that the proposition was the same. Jt was a mere verbal amendment Mr Huntixoron said there wav an essential differ: ence. By the bill you hypotbeeats your loans; by the amendment of my colleange you exchange your notes for the money. DOWN UPON PAPER EXPEDIENTS. Lks protested that he was opposed to all these of paper money, os far as they could be avoid sired to know whether the Secretary of the lated subsisting entirely upon paper not, said Mr. N., the revenue taea- oexpect.
