Early in the month it became evident that some of the principal arrangements for the attack on Vera Cruz were not likely to be carried out by the government.
The bill for raising the ten additional regiments was lost sight of by the administration, in the desire to carry their favorite project of placing a political partisan at the head of the army ; and this bill, which ought to have been passed in the first week of the session, was not finally disposed of till a day or two before the adjournm...ent.
What was the condition of things in Mexico at this critical period ?
Santa Anna, with a force of twenty-two thousand men, was at San Louis Potosi, a fortified city containing sixty thousand inhabitants, and about equally distant from Monterey, Vera Cruz, and Mexico.
General Taylor was in the vicinity of Monterey, in the command of a force of about eighteen thousand men, occupying the long line from Saltillo to Camargo, and thence to the mouth of the Rio Grande, where General Scott had just arrived with a small force, for the purpose of attacking Vera Cruz as soon as possible.
