The, step, however,. meets with Wt . Utile Lvov_ srigii k . the papers.; but, .from the feet that their liberty has Mace been suspended, there iii no certainty that it is equally dis- countenatice4 by .the government. / The Clergy, of, San Luis Potoli issued, on the 28th of April, a long and Whim- matory Address, .to the Mexitrim people, , which Is published-in El Reptiblicano of May 4. The address breathes a most bit. ' ter and implacableftpirit swami the United I States, and denounces our army as a "horde [ of robbers. -destitute of humanity—mon- ! stem, who bid defiance to, the laws of us- htureTrifandals,wifinitted from bell to scourge the nations, who worald. no God, but gold, l and aspire to no happiness but the gratifi- . 1 [cation of their own brutal.paseiona l" The war is denounced as a crusade against the 1 Catholic religion,-amPhe moat violent•ap- peals are made to the religious feeiingmof the people. The following paragraph is a i,- specimen of the whole : "Fellow citizens of Potosi! Can you behold, with waking eyes, and without,the blood freezing in your veins, a condition so humiliating, a fate so disastrous and frightful ! Can your bold and valiant character behold without rage that the foot of a heretic adventurer should `defile your magniticenttemples, or destroy your ven- erated images, and trample even upon your God, oiterthrowing your holy sacra- ments, and depriving the Christian soul of the sublime virtues and exalted enjoyments of the angels I Will you permit that u cov- etous and barbarous stranger should out-' rage that God who has visited anti consoled you in your infirmities—who accompanies' you in the horrible transition from life to the enjoyment of eternal beatitude ? Will you consent, brave Potosinos! to have the holy rites of your church abolished, and the sign of your redemption exterminated ! Finally, fellow citizens, will you be insen- sible to the loss of your religion, your tem- ples, and even to the sweet name of Chris- tians? Yet all this will happen to you.— Your families will hunger after the bread of The Word, and the eternal consolations which the' adorable religion of Jesus can can alone dispense, and there will be none who can furnish thou.

A letter front Durango, dated' the 20th April, states positively that Col. Doniplian's 1 forces had fallen back upon Chihuahua in-• stead of advancing upon DurSngo.

A PRIViTY INCILISIVIF—The Jalapa Star e 9th inst., contains the following : "As the column of,Itleximin prisoners were marching by us on the allernoo of the 18th, irtiiihierved moving on With the rest a lit- tkkbay and a lamb. Amidst the fire and smoke Rod the roar of musketry and artil- lery, which hadso lately enveloped the hill, these weak and defenceless creatures had stood unharmed. As they passed along our lines, they were levet, where greeted with kind looks and words. Countenances dark with the Ilene passion! of the recent conflict, clouded with the remembrance of fallen friends, and of revenge but half sa- ted, relaxed into et smile of minfled pleas- ure and pity—pity, that they should have been thus exposed„and pleasure, that He who guards the sparrow, had sheltered them from the ranges of the iron storm." A Soumtit's PRICE.—This average price of a aoldier, according to the standard fixed by Gen. Scott, is $3OO. A letter from Mexico, in the Journal of Commerce, says that Gen. Scott has taken the guerilla business in hand, and by his order, every murder that the Mexicans may commit, takes $3OO out of the nearest alcalde's pocket. . The Pennsylvanian says that the Admin- istrative, having carried all its measures, "can henceforth repose upon a bed, of ro- ses." We have seen many a pig, that had broken into a flower garden, doing the same thing.—Lotrisr We Journal.

Washington' Iffdir. ,Buctivo A IV IFE.—The Sag Harbor Corrector tells a story about a runaway wife, much asfollows:—The good woman, it appears, went to Sag llarbor with a man, and passed for his wife, and the mistake was only discovered when the real husband came for his runaway. He at once had the wan arrested for running away with his wife, but she got over this by stating that she ran off with the man. A second ineffectual attempt was made to put the man in prison for stealing the clothes the woman had upon her, but the matter was finally settled by the man, who paid ten dollars in cash and gave a double barrelled gun besidee. She was rather a cheep wife, but the seller had, no doubt, the best of the bargain.

Ramo- AND FALLINO.-••J‘ W hen the count try sinks, Federalism rises," say the Lo- cofoco papers, quoting from the remarks of one of the warmest hearted and most thor- ough going Whigs that ever gave a vote fur Henry Clay or John Quincy Adams. Well, it may be true. flow much did tja country sink when Mr. Taney rose to die Supreme Bench of the U. States Court, to All the place made vacant by the death of Marshall, another Federalist! How much did the country sink when Mr. Buchanan rose to be Secretary of State, with not a "drop of Democratic blood in his veins ?" [U. S. Gazelle.

BATTLE SCENES. A friend has handed to ow the ffisphio , ,aatx)unt which we pufah below of the battle of Cerro Bonin, by a young Lieutenant of the Mounted Melaka gradaste of West Point, written to a rela- tive. , Ills just such bright and brave fellows as the Weiler of this Idler who set the world agog at fighting: "I proceed to tell you of the peril play- ed In the battle of Cerro Gordo. God de- liver me from ever being in such another fight ! In my last letter from Vera Cruz I stated that I had been left bchindmy divi- eilitAt sion (2d of G wiggs's) sick, but that I was aboutito"of it cat Jalapa. Who can calculate on the future I The next news from the limy Was that Santa Anna, with an army of sixteen thousand men, was strongly entrenched in a mountain pass between us and Jalapa, at Gerro Gor- do, the name of the principal height and key-pi a / 2u of his, position—a perfect Mex- ican Gibraltar. a mountain height of eight hundred feet or more—surmounted by eight pieces or cannon,) eighteen and six- teen pounders.) which completelY sem- , manded the neighboring ground and ap- proaches ; and, 'urthermore, strengthened by two hreastwirks of stone, wood, and brush, which empletely girt about the 1 summit upon wlich stood a small town, from which waved proudly the flag' of Mexico.

Many ci our men, by natural impehosity, and many others misunderstandingorders, after having driv- en the enemy iron the first hill, advanced even to the basso( Cerro Gordo. That night, when wo , ested upon the first hill, under comparatie cover of its crest, sur- rounded by deadand wounded Mexicans, many a brave omrade was missed who was expiating the sidof having been brave even to rashness. ..I was too tau to join my regiment on the first day, bit attached myself to a company of the, 'th infantry, which held an exposed situaion, and had the extreme felicity of being fired at all day ,without 0 the pleasure of teturning it. Thalmight I rejoined my company, under Capt. Ma- son, and next truing the ball re-opened with great eclat,tho enemy having waken- ed us during tht night only twice by plea- sant messengen in the shape of cannon balls. In the reciting we (the. rifles) were obliged for two nortal hours to stand an artillery fire of tall, grape, and canister, 1 under very imprfect shelter; tierore the icommand forwa l to storm the height was given. lt was re that poor Mason, as fine a fellow as pver lived, (aud who, by 1 the by, is doing ell s ) lost his leg. Lieut.

"I hove only pretended to give you an account of that portion of the battle in which I was engaged. Ire, however, won the day." THE LATE VICTORY.—Gen. Score has certainly exhibited in the present campaign, (says the Raleigh Register,) all that his numerous and iulmiring !Heath' have claimed for him. His mili- tary attainments are of the highest tinier, and his gallantry is only equalled by his generosity, hti• inanity and chivalry. The following paragraph from the “Rivannah Republican" so much the better expresses our thoughts than we an our- Pelves, that weright willingly adopt them t "THE Smola AND- BATTLR.—General Scott's great administrative powers have been much commented on by his friends, and scouted at by his enemies and other impartial judges. The people of the U. States have now had a chance of seeing his generalship. From the time that ho landed near Vera Cruz (in itself a aerate-. getical operation, for his demonstration was on Anton Lizardo) to the last advices, he has exhibited a rare combination of milita- ry)4t-% attainments, reduc the art of war, even with his most a ty mans of Innis- portation, to an al ost exa science.— :Ole ma Icing eYour trop through the entrenchments of Cerro Gordo, and not stopping to survey the defences so gallant- ly won, is prompt mamruvring.

Mr. Poi.x had nothing to do with it, the "Union" assures us, nor Mr. BUCIIANAN, nor Mr. MARCY, nor any other member of the Administra- tion.

But a few months 'liner the moult-piece of the president at Washington was daily indulging itm readers with glowing eulo- gies upon the irresietable prowess of our arms which were ere !mg to find their way to the city of Mexico and force the enemy to sue for terms of peace from melee the walls of their own renowned capital, and scarcely a number of the Union was permined to leave the press without being burden- ed with the most comfortable assurances of an "early and honorable pracd,onqwered by our arms." The Administration, howevet has at last found it necessary to "go a begging," and ie now suing with all dilligence for that peace Which, thecountry was. no often assunxl, was to be so abjectly sought after by the Mexican people. Well, it is gratify- ing re he assured that our Government is at la 4 waking up to a wine ofthe telly of • further pros- veiniest of the wir, and the propriety of bringing about an early peace. Had it discovered as much winless twelve months ago, the heavy load of to- orpoeuftality now meting upon its shoulders ly rea- son of the thousand' of brave men sacrificed on the enemy's soil, and the countless widows and or- phans made destilitute and miserable by their loss —might, have beenobviated. _ The Washington eorreapontlent of the Baltimore 'Sun writing on the 31st ult., speaks of the arrival of Mr. Trial, the Government agent at Jalapa, and tic proclemation subsequently issued by Gen. Won, and remarks :—“Gen. Scott and Mr. Trial, I have reason to believe, have full power to treat with the Alesiesna, though they are not the bear_ era of a distinct propositionJkom our government. Tisis is as it should he, and commended by Giro- cies, and prudence. It is not offering to treat when you merely invite the other party•to put its name to the'cortditions imposed by you, leaving no enargin on either side. Gen. Hcott is entrusted with a much more important mission than merely to obtain the voluntary or corudtained assent of the Mexicans to a proposition, however wise and good, elaborated in the State Department; he is. you may depend upon it, vested with very large discretionary powers, and will, as is apparent from his proclamation, use them with discretion. Gen. Scott has already given great proofs of his skill and moderation, and if his diplomatic talents, as is generally supposed, be commensurate with his Vest military capacity, peace and good will be- tween the two great Republica of the New World must inevitably crown his ends."

It might be thought that those praises were shreent, for • such deeds challenge the gratibudngf entry patriot, were they not ginierally expressed in terms of studied con- trast with the exploit! of General Taylor. The of itself, even in the shrew* of an obvious men- dicancy for a candidate willing to encounter de- feat in the name of Locofocoism, week! explain the desire to array Whig against Whig, Scott a- gainst Taylor. The effort Is absurd as it is Meech- crews. Have they seen any characteristic of Scott that will justify this rah - rilkinpf to excite an in- vidious jealousy I TheMAig party of -Pennehrania has no cot- rupted part in which such worm' can breed. There is not • bolder, manlier,nor more high mind- ed Whig living than Winfield Scotto The heart of the Whig party is greet enough to bold both Scott and Taylor; and from the relations7intimate and friendly, between them, it is probable tlikt each is more earnest fin the other than for himself. The Whig National Convention will 'elect the candidate of the party ; ■nd whosoever he may be, whether it be either, or another, neither Scott nor Taylor can loss a ray of the lustre that surrounds them. It is, however, pleasant ti awe the Loco Focus come to their senses in relation to Gen. Scott-- An a short while since, the Whig Gen.-Scott was made the subject of universal ridicule by the Ad- ministration prem. , We heard of nothing but his plate of soup, a joke as witless as it was unworthy and our corneal rebuke of which found no one willing or prepared to answer it. We rejoice that then, in his darkest hour, when he encountered.* storm of that which no worth, no wisdom can breast, ridicule--we were among the most ardent of his. champions. We kne? the man, and knew that mope, opportunity and a Stir field were an that could he desired to prove that the hero of Lem. dy's Lane would again ahine forth ■ hero, and that ■II which calm science-, ardent - energyand theps• culler power of a truly great general mold effect, would—whatever the odds or the difficulties—be effected. He hos won laurels, which even the poisonous distillment of Administration praise cannot wither. There is not a fault in his curer. It is all bright, all worthy the admiration of his country. We cannot forget the maledictions of the Administra- tion, and its press against him ; but we are grateful for their present praise. The Pennsylvanian pub- lished the proceeding* of a recent Loco Foco meet- ing in Centre county, in which every general offi- cer at Cerro Gordo was thanked, and ticott's name wholly omitted. But what's that, after the course of the Administration and the party- 7 -alle;llie de- nuiteiation and ridicule with which, for months, Soatt was unsparingly covered! Tim war of the Administration against Hcott has no parallel in bitterness and injustice in the history of the age. It was monstrous in its injus- tice and cruelty. Ile has surmounted it; 010, now, we rejoice to find the Loettfoco prints con- 'omitted to do justice to one of the moat ardent, thoroughgoing and determined Whigs in the coun- try. Es cry word of extorted praise dropped from the Isteolocy pn•as, in nisei' of the gallant Scott, must tend to cons ince the A.dolinistrution party of this .Salta that they have been deceived and wrong- ed. cannot he that Pennsylvanians will vote against, and in censure of Taylor and Scott ; that they will endorse...the censures and persecutions of the Administrations of the General and State gov- ernment ; and leave those heroes, by, their votes, to the tender mercies of a party which has sought et nll times, and by all efforts of official power, to degrade, displace and ruin them. Gen. Scott is a patriot worthy the confidence with which he has inspired the Whig party, wor- thy to share the glories won by his comrade in amp) and friend, Gen. Taylor, worthy to he worn as a grin of the first water, on the brow of the Whig party. That party is proud of all its sons, who have, by their services to their country, ap- proved their claims to its confidence and respect. From its Clays and Webstenc its Taylors and Scotts, its Claytona and Crittendens, its vast and varied wealth of genius and patriotism, it may pause to choose, but cannot be emberrussed and whomsoever may be selected—the Whig party will he found to have but one heart and, ono voice in his favar.—North .dmernuar. IE? Gen. Score ham issued a long Pmelama- lion, dated Jalapa, May 11, 1847, addressed to the Mexican people, on the recent events of the war, and the measures adopted by thr Mexican Govern- ment. Hllares the war that is being waged by his counny, isnot directed against the property, the religion, and the happiness of the Mexican people, and gives the assurance that the U. States is desirous of peace. The Proclamation concludes with the following paragraphs : "The order to form guerrilla parties to att.ao us, I assure you. can produce noth- ing but evil to your country, and no evil to our army. which will know how to protect itself and how to proceed , against them ; and if, so far from conciliating, you suc- ceed iu irritating, you will impose upon us the hard necessity of retaliation, and then you cannot blame us for the consequences which will fall upon yourselves. "I am marching with my army upon Puebla and Mexico—l do not conceal it; from those capitals I shall again address you. I desire peace, friendship and union ; it is for you to select whether you prefer war; under any circumstances, be assured I shad I not fail my word." TILE ILLINOIS VOLUNTEERS.—The eor- respondent of the New Orleans Times states, on the authority of Col. BAKsn himself,' that he brings home less than iiiit4ualf of the troops car- ried by him frorp the United States. The bodies of the other half enrich the soil of Mexico, and their memorythe military character of their coun- try. The Colonel also states that but a single sol- dier of his regiment has been nifty of an act re- spiring punishment, and .his offence wasamply atoned for by a line of seven dollars and a few tours of double duty. This fact speaks well for the character of Col. Datrina's ,reginsent. rar Gen. Cosa ins, of the Massaebtieetts vol- unteers, met- with 11 serious accident- at Mabunons on the 6th instant. As he was walking with a lady, he stepped upon a loose brick and fell, and, we are berry to say, broke his left leg just above the ankle. ME.

The New Orleans Bulletin publishes the follow- ing extract from a letter written by Gel/. TAMAN, under date of Kay 15, bearing upon the move- ments, in his bear so a outdid' Mrfor the Presiden- cy. It will be wen that the Old Hero expresso% Ili wining:sew to accept a worairation if tendered him: "In re g ard to the Presidency, I will not say that k will not serve, if the good people of the country were require me to do so, however much it is opposed to my wishes —fin I am free to say %hat I have no aspi- rations for the situatien. My greatest, perhaps only, wish has been to bring, or aid in bringing, this war to tt speedy and honorable close. It has ever been, and still is, my anxious wish that idiot one of the mostexperienced, talented and virtuous statesmen of the country should be chosen to that high place at the next election. I I am satisfied that, 'if our friends will do their duty, such a citizen may be elected. "I must, however, be allowed to say, that I have not the vanity to consider mx- self qualified for so high and responsible a a station ; and, whilst we have far more eminent and deserving names before the country, I should prefer to stand aside if one of them could be raised to the first of- fice in the gift of a free people. "I go for the country, the whole country ; and it is my ardent and sincere wishio see the individual placed at the head of the na- tion, who, by a strict observance of the Constitution, (be he who he may,) can make us prosperous at home, as,well as re- spected abroad." Gen. Taylor's Polities. The connoection of Gen. Toytor's name with the Presidency by • Dumber of Whig presses, is little relished by the Locofoco leaders, some of whom affect to deprecate, oat of "pure Icrre" the old Hem, such an "unauthorized" we of hie name, as necessarily repugnant to his wishea and mollifying to bis kelinge: while others go the whole figure and claim him as a Democrat of the true blue Locokico Gith. Whatever may he the sumps; of the movement made with a view to the nomination of Gen. Taylor to the Presidency, there can be but little doublithat he is a Whig, and a Whig of the right school. The following paragraph from the "Democratic Advocate," • Lcreoftwo paper printed at Baton Rouge, the place of Gen. Ta)lor's residence, should settle the ques- tion: '4)nr contemporaries IF disputing about Gen. Taylor's polities. There need be no ditlieulty on this 10ne,.: Gen. Taylor gave his last villa for Gen. Jacksim—he would have voted for Henry Clay, at the late election, because he personally esteemed and admired him as a statesman, and because he was oppoited to the annexation of Texas, on con- stitutional grounds. Gen. Taylor says he belongs to no party, but is called a Whig. Gen. Taylor thought the,war with Mexico could and oetht to base been *voided. We am satisfied that it is an- noying to the old General to hear of his nomina- tion for the Prenidenry. But, of one thing we can assure our democratic friend*, (bm. T. is no democrat ; and we will my further—we believe be mould never ask a question in appointing men'to office, as to their politics, but his Men%Ureg would not harmonize well with the late +mil present tie- moirratir ad harations—anye on the tariff."

It had fallen to $A 75. From the Army.. trr.tott night's southern mail brought but little additional intelligence from the Army. Active preparations were being made in Mexico to defend the Capital from invasion. The immense train of wagons which left Vera Cruz with heavy supplies and a large amount of specie., had arrived at Jalapa. ccy The influence of the Press over the unholy designs of ambitious rulers (says the Philadelphia tun) has been moat signally manifested by the recent recantations of the Government of its in- tention to conquer, dismember, and partition the Republic of Mexico. History presents few exam- ples of the power exercised over Govemmeits by the liberty of the pea, equal to this revocation of its long cherished scheme of the national subjuga- tion of the domain of our sister Republic. „, 1...7" The venerable ex-President Jona QVISCT Aa►vs passed through Baltimore on Tuesday lard from Washington on his way home,.

A Soumtit's PRICE.—This averageprice of a aoldier, according to the standardfixed by Gen. Scott, is $3OO. A letterfrom Mexico, in the Journal of Commerce,says that Gen.

A secondineffectual attempt was made to put theman in prison for stealing the clothes thewoman had upon her, but the matter wasfinally settled by the man, who paid tendollars in cash and gave a double barrelledgun besidee.

BATTLE SCENES.A friend has handed to ow the ffisphio ,,aatx)unt

which we pufah below of the battle of CerroBonin, by a young Lieutenant of the MountedMelaka gradaste ofWest Point, written to a rela-tive. , Ills just such bright and brave fellows as

theWeiler of this Idler who set the world agog atfighting:

"I proceed to tell you of the peril play-ed In the battle of Cerro Gordo. God de-liver me from ever being in such anotherfight ! In my last letter from Vera Cruz Istated that I had been left bchindmy divi-

Many ci our men,by natural impehosity, and many othersmisunderstandingorders, after having driv-en the enemy iron the first hill, advancedeven to the basso( Cerro Gordo. Thatnight, when wo ,ested upon the first hill,under comparatie cover of its crest, sur-rounded by deadand wounded Mexicans,many a brave omrade was missed whowas expiating the sidof having been braveeven to rashness.

..I was too tauto join my regiment onthe first day, bit attached myself to a

company of the, 'th infantry, which heldan exposed situaion, and had the extremefelicity of being fired at all day ,without

0 the pleasure of teturning it. ThalmightI rejoined my company, under Capt. Ma-son, and next truing the ball re-openedwith great eclat,tho enemy having waken-ed us during tht night only twice by plea-sant messengen in the shape of cannonballs. In the reciting we (the. rifles) wereobliged for two nortal hours to stand anartillery fire of tall, grape, and canister,

The Administration poling forPeace.

rirThe Admitiiidnition Is evidently sick ofthe IV•r with Mexico, already protracted fhr be.vend their anticipations, when eiMintencing it, andthe vial of which seems to be as remote as ever,

only "a little more so." But a few months 'linerthe moult-piece of the president at Washingtonwas daily indulging itm readers with glowing eulo-gies upon the irresietable prowess of our armswhich were ere !mg to find their way to the cityof Mexico and force the enemy to sue for terms ofpeace from melee the walls of their own renownedcapital, and scarcely a number of the Union waspermined to leave the press without being burden-ed with the most comfortable assurances of an"early and honorable pracd,onqwered by our arms."The Administration, howevet has at last foundit necessary to "go a begging," and ie now suingwith all dilligence for that peace Which, thecountrywas. no often assunxl, was to be so abjectly soughtafter by the Mexican people. Well, it is gratify-ing re he assured that our Government is at la 4waking up to a wine ofthe telly of • further pros-veiniest of the wir, and the propriety of bringingabout an early peace. Had it discovered as muchwinless twelve months ago, the heavy load of to-orpoeuftality now metingupon its shoulders ly rea-son of the thousand' of brave men sacrificed on theenemy's soil, and the countless widows and or-phans made destilitute and miserable by their loss—might, have beenobviated. _

The Washington eorreapontlent of the Baltimore'Sun writing on the 31st ult., speaks of the arrivalof Mr. Trial, the Government agent at Jalapa, andtic proclemation subsequently issued by Gen.Won, and remarks :—“Gen. Scott and Mr. Trial,I have reason to believe, have full power to treatwith the Alesiesna, though they are not the bear_era ofa distinct propositionJkom our government.Tisis is as it should he, and commended by Giro-

cies, and prudence. It is not offering to treatwhen you merely invite the other party•to put itsname to the'cortditions imposed by you, leaving noenargin on either side. Gen. Hcott is entrustedwith a much more important mission than merelyto obtain the voluntary or corudtained assent ofthe Mexicans to a proposition, however wise andgood, elaborated in the State Department; he is.you may depend upon it, vested with very largediscretionary powers, and will, as is apparent fromhis proclamation, use them with discretion. Gen.Scott has already given great proofs ofhis skill andmoderation, and if his diplomatic talents, as isgenerally supposed, be commensurate with hisVest military capacity, peace and good will be-tween the two great Republica of the New Worldmust inevitably crown his ends."

Cir The U.l steamship Trumbull arrived atNrw Orleans en .the 224 ult., from the Brazos.Adriees from Monterey to the &I state that appre-hensions were entertained fai the safety of Col.Doniphan's conuatind, which hail left Chihuahuafor &halo.

Scott and the Administration.,. We are rejoiced at theprairies recently bestowedlit, the administration presses pion Gen- Scott, forhis achievements in Mexico. It might be thoughtthat those praises were shreent, for • such deedschallenge the gratibudngf entry patriot, were theynot ginierally expressed in terms of studied con-trast with the exploit! of General Taylor. Theof itself, even in the shrew* of an obvious men-dicancy for a candidate willing to encounter de-feat in the name of Locofocoism, week! explainthe desire to array Whig against Whig, Scott a-gainst Taylor. The effort Is absurd as it is Meech-crews. Have they seen any characteristic ofScottthat will justify this rah -rilkinpf to excite an in-vidious jealousy I

TheMAig party of -Pennehrania has no cot-rupted part in which such worm' can breed.Thereis not • bolder, manlier,nor more high mind-ed Whig living than Winfield Scotto The heartof the Whig party is greet enough to bold bothScott and Taylor; and from therelations7intimateand friendly, between them, it is probable tlikteach is more earnest fin the other than for himself.The Whig National Convention will 'elect thecandidate of the party ; ■nd whosoever he may be,whether it be either, or another, neither Scott norTaylor can loss a ray of the lustre that surroundsthem.

It is, however, pleasant ti awe the Loco Focuscome to their senses in relation to Gen. Scott--An a short while since, the Whig Gen.-Scott was

made the subject of universal ridicule by the Ad-ministration prem. , We heard of nothing but hisplate ofsoup, a joke as witless as it was unworthyand our corneal rebuke of which found no onewilling or prepared to answer it. We rejoice thatthen, in his darkest hour, when he encountered.*storm of that which no worth, no wisdom canbreast, ridicule--we were among the most ardentofhis. champions. We kne? the man, and knewthat mope, opportunity and a Stir field were anthat could he desired to prove that the hero of Lem.dy's Lane would again ahine forth ■ hero, and that■II which calm science-, ardent-energyand theps•culler power of a truly great general mold effect,would—whatever the odds or the difficulties—beeffected.

He hos won laurels, which even the poisonousdistillment of Administration praise cannot wither.There is not a fault in his curer. It is all bright,all worthy the admiration of his country. Wecannot forget the maledictions of the Administra-tion, and its press against him ; but we are gratefulfor their present praise. The Pennsylvanian pub-lished the proceeding* of a recent Loco Foco meet-ing in Centre county, in which every general offi-cer at Cerro Gordo was thanked, and ticott's namewholly omitted. But what's that, after the courseof the Administration and the party-7-alle;llie de-nuiteiation and ridicule with which, for months,Soatt was unsparingly covered!

Tim war of the Administration against Hcotthas no parallel in bitterness and injustice in thehistory of the age. It was monstrous in its injus-tice and cruelty. Ile has surmounted it; 010,now, we rejoice to find the Loettfoco prints con-'omitted to do justice to one of the moat ardent,thoroughgoing and determined Whigs in the coun-try. Es cry word ofextorted praise dropped fromthe Isteolocy pn•as, in nisei' of the gallant Scott,must tend to cons ince the A.dolinistrution party ofthis .Salta that they have been deceived and wrong-ed. cannot he that Pennsylvanians will voteagainst, and in censure of Taylor and Scott ; thatthey will endorse...the censures and persecutions ofthe Administrations of the General and State gov-

ernment; and leave those heroes, by, their votes,to the tender mercies of a party which has soughtet nll times, and by all efforts of official power, todegrade, displace and ruin them.

Gen. Scott is a patriot worthy the confidencewith which he has inspired the Whig party, wor-thy to share the glories won by his comrade inamp) and friend, Gen. Taylor, worthy to he wornas a grin of the first water, on the brow of theWhig party. That party is proud of all its sons,who have, by their services to their country, ap-proved their claims to its confidence and respect.From its Clays and Webstenc its Taylors andScotts, its Claytona and Crittendens, its vast andvaried wealth of genius and patriotism, it maypause to choose, but cannot be emberrussed andwhomsoever may be selected—the Whig partywill he found to have but one heart and, ono voicein his favar.—North .dmernuar.

IE? Gen. Score ham issued a long Pmelama-lion, dated Jalapa, May 11, 1847, addressed to theMexican people, on the recent events of the war,and the measures adopted by thr Mexican Govern-ment. Hllares the war that is being wagedby his counny, isnot directed against the property,the religion, and the happiness of the Mexicanpeople, and gives the assurance that the U. Statesis desirous of peace. The Proclamation concludeswith the following paragraphs :

"The order to form guerrilla parties toatt.ao us, I assure you. can produce noth-ing but evil to your country, and no evil toour army.which will know how to protectitself and how to proceed ,against them ;

and if, so far from conciliating, you suc-ceed iu irritating, you will impose upon usthe hard necessity of retaliation, and thenyou cannot blame us for the consequenceswhich will fall upon yourselves.

"I am marching with my army uponPuebla and Mexico—l do not conceal it;from those capitals I shall again addressyou. I desire peace, friendship and union ;

it is for you to select whether you preferwar; under any circumstances, be assuredI shad I not fail my word."

TILE ILLINOIS VOLUNTEERS.—The eor-respondent of the New OrleansTimes states, onthe authority of Col. BAKsn himself,' that hebrings home less than iiiit4ualf of the troops car-ried by him frorp the United States. The bodiesof the other half enrich the soil of Mexico, andtheir memorythe military character of their coun-try. The Colonel also states that but a single sol-dier of his regiment has been nifty of an act re-spiring punishment, and .his offence wasamplyatoned for by a line of seven dollars and a fewtours of double duty. This fact speaks well forthe character of Col. Datrina's ,reginsent.

rar Gen. Cosa ins, of the Massaebtieetts vol-unteers, met-with 11 seriousaccident- at Mabunonson the 6th instant. As he was walking with alady, hestepped upon a loose brick and fell, and,we are berry to say, broke his left leg just abovethe ankle.

Gen. Taylor and the Presidency.The New Orleans Bulletin publishes the follow-

ing extract from a letter written by Gel/. TAMAN,under date of Kay 15, bearing upon the move-ments, in hisbear soa outdid'Mrfor the Presiden-cy. It willbe wen that the Old Hero expresso% Iliwining:sew to accept a worairation if tenderedhim:

"In re gard to the Presidency, I will notsay that k will not serve, if thegood peopleof the country were require me to do so,however much it is opposed to my wishes—fin I am free to say %hat I have no aspi-rations for the situatien. My greatest,perhaps only, wish has been to bring, oraid in bringing, this war to tt speedy andhonorable close. It has ever been, andstill is, my anxious wish that idiot one ofthe mostexperienced, talented and virtuousstatesmen of the country should bechosento that high place at the next election. II am satisfied that, 'if our friends will dotheir duty, such a citizen may be elected.

"I must, however, be allowed to say,that I have not the vanity to consider mx-self qualified for so high and responsible aa station ; and, whilst we have far moreeminent and deserving names before thecountry, I should prefer to stand aside ifone of them could be raised to the first of-fice in the gift of a free people.

"I go for the country, the whole country ;

and it is my ardent and sincere wishio seethe individual placed at the head of the na-tion, who, by a strict observance of theConstitution, (be he who he may,) canmake us prosperous at home,as,well as re-spected abroad."

Gen. Taylor's Polities.The connoection of Gen. Toytor's name with

the Presidency by • Dumber of Whig presses, islittle relished by the Locofoco leaders, some ofwhom affect to deprecate, oat of "pure Icrre"the old Hem, such an "unauthorized" we of hiename,as necessarily repugnant to his wishea andmollifying to bis kelinge: while others go thewhole figure and claim him as a Democrat of thetrue blue Locokico Gith. Whatever may he thesumps; of the movement made with a view to thenomination of Gen. Taylor to the Presidency,there can be but little doublithat he is a Whig,and a Whig of the right school. The followingparagraph from the "Democratic Advocate," •

Lcreoftwo paper printed at Baton Rouge, the placeof Gen. Ta)lor's residence, should settle the ques-tion:

'4)nr contemporaries IF disputing about Gen.Taylor's polities. There need be no ditlieulty onthis 10ne,.: Gen. Taylorgave his last villa for Gen.Jacksim—he would have voted for Henry Clay, atthe late election, because he personally esteemedand admired him as a statesman, and because hewas oppoited to the annexation of Texas, on con-stitutional grounds. Gen. Taylor says he belongsto no party, but is called a Whig. Gen. Taylorthought the,war with Mexico could and oetht tobase been *voided. We am satisfied that it is an-noying to the old General to hear of his nomina-tion for the Prenidenry. But, of one thing wecan assure our democratic friend*, (bm. T. is no

democrat ; and we will my further—we believe bemould never ask a question in appointing men'tooffice, as to their politics, but his Men%Ureg wouldnot harmonize well with the late +mil present tie-moirratir ad harations—anye on the tariff."

Later from Europe.117The packet ship Rainbow arrived at New

York on Tuesday with a few days later whimsfrom Europe. Rut little news ofinterest. The highfamine fever seas raging and greatly on the in-crease. No has than 256 funerals had enteredFather Mathewr's Cemetery in one week. In thelast four weeks 754 !imams have died in the Kil-kenny Poor-house. The commercial news by theRainbow has again unsettled the markets, andcanoed an advance in dour to $9. It had fallento $A 75.

From the Army..trr.tott night's southern mail brought but little

additional intelligence from the Army. Activepreparations were being made in Mexico to defendthe Capital from invasion. The immense train ofwagons which left Vera Cruz with heavy suppliesand a largeamount of specie., had arrivedat Jalapa.

ccyThe influence of the Press over the unholydesigns of ambitious rulers (says the Philadelphiatun) has been moat signally manifested by the

recent recantations of the Government of its in-tention to conquer, dismember, and partition theRepublic of Mexico. History presents few exam-ples of the power exercised over Govemmeits bythe liberty of the pea, equal to this revocation ofits long cherished scheme ofthe national subjuga-tion of the domain of our sister Republic. „,
