<i» not excuse Mexico for this refusal to reccivi our minister. It was a very frivolous piece o false prlile, but very much in character with al her other follies connected with this quarrel Hut certainly this refusal to receive a miniate was nut war. On the 13th of January, 1846, whilst the question of the reception of the Minister wm vet pending, and before it was known whelhei Mexico would receive him or not. and at a fmu when there was no expectation of an iuvasior from Mexico—and mure to be noted than any thing else —at a time irken the Congress of thi Vailed States teas in session, the I'resideut, pri vately. without communicating one syllable tc Congress, or giving any hint of the event tc either branch of the national legislature, to whom alone the Constitution has confided the great and inoinentona power of making war—in these circumstances and on this day. Mr. Polk am thorized Mr. Marcy to write to Gen. Taylor— “ I am directed by the President to instruct you to advance and occupy, with the troops under your command, positions on or near the easl hank ot the Rio del Norte, as soon as it can conveniently be done, with reference to the season and routes by which your movements must be made. I rout the views heretofore pre sented to Ibis department, it is presumed Point Isabel will be considered by yon an eligible po sition. this point, orsomeone near it. and points apposite Matamoros and Mier. and in the ririni tyoj l.oredo, are suggested to vour considera tion. Can any friend of Mr. Polk s answer the question, why Congress was not consulted when the decisive step was taken I Here was ■i i lear. unequivocal repudiation of all onr pre vions pledges in regard to the question ol the boundary to the Km del Norte— lien* wan an order lo occupy a country which ttw at admitted was under the jurisdiction ol Mexico, and in which a Mexican town, on the leit or eastern hank of the Kio del Norte —the town ot Loredo, containing fifteen hundred in habitants—was specially designated as one of the positions lor the army: here was, in short, an invasion of Mexico—just such an invasion as every civilized nation would regard as an act of war. Suppose the case reversed, and Mexico had directed her troops to advance to the Nue ces. and lo occupy a position which should command one of the villages of Te\a<—what would ti>iw country have thought of it f Need I ask ? The declaration would have been uni versal, that Mexico had began the war, by an art of flagrant aggression. And yet certainly Mexico had quite us much right to seize upon the disputed territory as we had—if* Mr. Ben ton’s opinion is worth anything —a much better right. On the 10th ofMarch. 1840. Gen. Taylor, in obedience to these orders, commenced his march from Corpus Christi to the Rio Grande. He arrived at that river on the 28ih. and en camped opposite Matamoros. What he did when he arrived there, you will read in his offi cial despatches. On the tkh of April the Gen. writes—“On onr side a battery for four eigh teen pounders will be completed, and the guns placed in battery to-day. These guns bear di rectly upon the public square of Matamoros, and irithin good range fur demolishing the toicn. — Their object cannot be mistaken by the enemy!” Remember that when that letter was written there had been no collision—not a shot had been tired, not a man made prisoner. And yet we are told that this act was not an act ol war ’ —that this marching of an army into what we are pleased lo call disputed territory,’ hut which confessedly, was. and always hud been in the actual occupation of (he people of Mexico and under the jurisdiction of that conn t y : —this marching of an army there: —this pointing of cannon into the homesteads of the in habitants of Matamoros. the capital of Tama til i pa- ; —was nut an act of war!! Collisions en sued. How could it be otherwise, with these gun- pointing into the window s of Matamoros ? me- were in motion, and u was not long un til Mood was spilt. \V hat a pitiful and unmaii ly equivocation was it. for the President to say, after tin- aggression on his part, that war exists by th< act of Mexico ' tie had failed in his du ty when he tailed lo submit the question of in vasion. which icas a question of tear, to Congress. And when he found tliat he had brought our lit tle army into peril by it, it was a mere trick l« nd himself of the responsibility he bad so rashly as-nined. to throw the blame of the war upon MeXICO. rtit'.e letters have grown too long to allow Il,e ni'irh space for comment on these transac tion-. ami a- I prefer democratic authority in thl * ,n any other, I shall close the narra the events which belong to the origin of the »v tr. by a few extracts from a distinguished writer on the democratic side, who was once !!!■• editor ol a democratic magazine, and who a- tiles- extracts will show, was a friend and supporter of Mr. Polk's election. I i'toie -oin« passages from an article, in lirow ns.m S Quarterly Review, en the Mexican W tr. published in July last aud written by Mr. Brownsun himself: • Por ourselves”—he says—“we have re garded the Mexican war as uncalled for, im politic and unjust. We have examined the doc ument- ; dished by order of tile Government, k |l ,:iV ‘ j the Olficial defence of the war in lb- laslatt . >al message of tiie President to Con gress. iml .t nil every to tlmi «»nr cso- V eminent in the right : but vve are hound to sav that our original impressions have been strengthened, rather than weakened.” • - * ... The act of Mexico in crossing the Rio Grinds, and engaging onr troops on territory w inch site bad possessed aud still claimed as hers, but which vve asserted had. by a recent act against which she had protested, become ours. —the act which the President chose to in form Congress and the world was war—mav or may not have been a just cause fur declar ing war against her, bill it assuredly was not war itself.” And again : •• No sophistry can make her act war—cer tainly not w ithout conceding thatour act in tak ing military possession of that territory was also war; and if that was war, if it existed al all, ex isted by onr act and not by hers, for her act was consequent upon ours. The most that the Pre sident was al liberty to say. without condemn ing his own guv eminent, was, that there had been a collision of the forces of the two repub lics on a territory claimed by each ; hut this col lision he had no right lo term war, for every body knows that it takes something mure than a collision of the respective forces on a disputed erritory to constitute a war between two civili zed nations. In no possible point of view was the announcement oftlie President, that war existed between the two republics, and exist ed by the act of Mexico, correct. Il did not exist at all; or if it did. it existed by onr act. In either ca-e the official announcement was false, and cannot be defended ” The course the President should have pur sued isplain and obvious. On learning the Slate of things on the frontier, the critical con dition of onr army of occupation, he should have demanded of Congress the reinforcements and supplies necessary to relieve it and secure the purpose for which it was avowedly sent to the Riu Grande : and, it he believed it proper or necessary, to have in addition laid before Congress a full and truthful statement of onr relations with Mexico, including all the unad justed complaints, past and present, we had .tg.iiii-t tier, accompanied by the recommenda tion ofa declaration of war. He would then have kept within the limits of his duty, proved hiinselfaplain constitutional President, and left the responsibility of war or no war lo Congress, the only war making power known to the liws. Congress, alter mature deliberation, irvqtht or might not have declared war-most likely would not ; but whether so or not, the respon sibility would have resulted with it, and no blame would have attached to the President. I. lih-ippily. tins course dui not occur to the I re-id-nl, or was 100 plain and simple to meet ns approbation. As if fearful, if Congress de liberattd. it might refuse to declare war, and as it determined to have war at any rale, he pre sented to Congress, nut the true issue, wheth er w~r should or should not he declared—hit the lalse issue, whether Congress would grant b..., O.e menus nr prosecuting a war waged against O. by a foreign power. 1,. the true i-ue Congress might have hesitnied-in the one actually presented there was no room to hesitate, il the official announcement of the Pim Mdent was to he credited, and hesitation wouhh have been criminal. % ■ By declaring that the war already existed, and by the act of Mexico herself, the President relieved Congress of the responsibility of the war. by throwing it on Mexico. But since hr. cannot fasten it on Mexico,—liir war did nan already exist, or if so, by onr act, and nut her * —it necessarily recutis upon himself, nod. he must hear die responsibility of doing wlvg the constitution forbids him to do,—of making war without the intervention of Congress In ef fect therefore, he has trampled , restitution ■ a ' lan “' TU VP T ' r *<lent.und by the. ojp l tal putdiratwn of a palpal, lr sullied the national honor.

MONDAY MORNING, NOV’R. 8, IM>. er = - Northern Democracy. ’ There seems to he a studied effort on the l»S . i er part of ninny Democratic journals at the South le lo misunderstand, if not misrepresent,the posi tion of Northern Democracy on the VVilniot Proviso. It is generally understood in Penn i- sylvania that Mr. Hhunk, who received some •° 19,000 majority in that State, is himself a deci le ded Proviso man Certain it is, that ho owes ■U his election to the votes and earnest support of ie Mr. Wilmot and the other Democratic mem hers of Congress, who advocate the Proviso.— ~ The resolutions on this subject of the Demo .r crals in the Legislature, are decisive on this st question ; and will be again at its next session, n if it he agitated. With what appearance of tg truth can the Eufaula Democrat use language x. like the following: it “ We are most firmly jiorsuaded that all things will j. yot go well, il the South will only stand by those Dem is ocrats in the N*»rth who are now so nobly lighting her j. battles. The smoke has scarcely cleared away from I. the fields ot strife in Pennsylvania, and we behold a majority of some ‘20,000 in favor of the constitution and Us compromises, against Whigs, abolitionists, and I Wilmot Proviso men. The sturdy Democracy of that d Stale, headed by Dallas and Hnchanan, has placet! IS the Sooth under a debt of everlasting gratitude That !■ the unyielding Democracy of the North, are the firm II friends of the South, is a tact so prominent, that ho inuixt, indeed, be blind, who does not see it. Let the h South cheer them on. Ixet the battle rage, so that ,1* fishy, Wilmot Proviso Democrats of the North, with Flagg and John Van Huron at their head, may go over to the abolitionists, where they belong. If Southern Whigs will stand uplo Northern Democracy Wilmot anil his whole clan may at any time ask 'lie benefit of '* their |>oliiical habeas corpus. ” s The idea of “ Southern Whigs standing up ,f to Northern Democracy ” on the question of extending slavery lo any territory lo be acqtiir- ed of Mexico is worse than ridiculous. There ! is not a county in a free State, where, if the na- I ked question of establishing the institution with its three-fifths representation and political pow er in any new territory were presented, it could x coni maud one third of the votes of any party. * The fact is well known to every intelligent man. and every candid one will acknowledge ! it. that all parties in the free Stales are opposed j to its extension to new territory. It is as need less to inquire why this i» mo. »» »•* ( j wrong to attempt lo conceal the truth in the case. In the present state of public feeling, • both at the South and the North, we do not he lieve it possible lo adopt the Missouri com- ( * promise, in regard lo the occupancy and settle- j menl of any Mexican territory. Undoubtedly ' au effort will be made for that purpose : hut the people of the North very well understand tliat j the territory west of Arkansas and Missouri, | and North of;U3£ degrees, is worthless. On the i other hand, it will be hard to persuade the plan- : lers of the South, that Congress has a right to ' forbid their emigration with their servants to , any territory, whether North or South of | degrees, which their blood and treasure have so dearly purchased of Mexico. Yet we be- * lieve a majority would be willing to adopt the Missouri compromise; but the South is in a t minority, ami cannot carry the measure with- ? out the aid ol votes from the free States, which * we do not believe can be obtained What then, * is lo be done ? Simply, to avoid this most j threatening controversy between the Free and ( Slave Stales, by taking no territory whatever. The paper from which we copy the above s affects to regard this opposition to the acquisi- I lion of more territory as an “attack on the H South. ,r Speaking of Southern Whigs, it i says: •* Some of them still say, no more terri tory—not stopping, we are willing to believe, J to retied that it is an attack on the South, but ( merely because it comes in the shape ofa par ly issue, because it may contribute lo the sue- t cess of a party or elect a President. ” c The election of a President by either party is less than dust in the balance, when weighed i against a dissolution of the Union, and possible c civil war. No one can tell where Mr. Polk’s invasion of Mexico is lo end. If we get no 1 ° l spoils, (and we need none, if vve deserve them) , we shall avoid the calamity of a family quarrel i about their division. 1 L Remarkable Exhibition of Whl*f Bitter- “ UCUi” Under this imposing head, the Savannah tl Georgian has a long article, based upon the in- * formation tliat “ the Whigs of the town of s Auburn, at the head of the Montgomery Rail- h road in Alabama, upon the reception of the r rumor of Mr. Po lk’s death, actually illuminated their houses byway of public rejoicing at the j event.” r The editor might have bottled his wrath a 1 little longer, Ls lie had wailed to ascertain the ( truth of the story. Our attention was called 1 to the article of the Georgian by a gentleman from Alabama, who was at Auburn the day after ‘ the news of Mr. Polk’s death reached the in, aud | whose intimate relations with the Railroad would render him familiar with such a dis- I graceful scene had it occured at any time, who informs us that the Editor of the Georgian has certainly beou hoaxed ; that nothing of the sort occurred. Syu txl of Georgia* The Trustees of the Presbyterian Church, at Marietta, announce lo the members of the approaching Synod, which is lo assemble at Marietta on Thursday, the 18th hist, that by the courtesy of the Presidents of the several Rail roads in Georgia, they will he permitted to pass upon all those roads at half price, in coming to and returning from the session of that body. The Georgia Volcano. i V day or two since, we alluded to the exis tence of a Volcano on the line of Walker and Dade County in this Slate, a notice of which had been published by the Dalton Eagle. The following is the account given by that paper, which, however, seems not to be very aiithen lie; indeed, to smack of a hoax : “ Great excitement and alarm prevails al pceseut among the inhabitants of Walker and Dade counties, • produced by n burning volcano, which is said to have bursted out from among the high peaks of the Loukoui Mountain at a place called the ‘narrows, ’ on the l!)th OrtoEer. We understand that many of those whore sided on the mountain and in the neighborhood, have abani lotted their homes, and if not gone into ‘ a far count ry, ’ have at least placed themselves out of harm’s way. “A grave looking gentleman Irom Walker, called on us one day this week to give us the full particulars, who nr tilted that on the day above mentioned, a series of sou nds resembling the noise of distant thunder, ac coiup lined with a sli<;lit shaking of the earth, were distil icily heard in Walker and Dade, and by many port* »ns in this county. That twoor three days after war ils the cause was ascertained lo be whui we have already stated; and that the report and effects of the «nxt[»tion in its immediate neighborhood were terrible* beyond description.

Mr. Ingersoll, in conclusion, earnestly im pressed upon the assembly the necessity of ie, harmony and cordial good feeling. He said r’s that the eyes of the whole nation were turned re upon New York, even as, in the East, the •yss of the worshippers of AUab *ror« Uitxmkl towards Mecca; and he earnestly besongi his fellow Whig* to display such unaninir and patriotism in the coming contest, that t sound ol the bells on Tuesday next shoal serve as a warning of defeat to the enemy.

Increased Speed on Railways.— The latest English papers give some account of an engine which has recently been invented fur the main tenance of high speed upon railways of narrow gunge. It has been put in operation with the fullest success. The peculiarities of the engine consists chiefly in the disposition of the wheels, which permits them lo support the wear and weight ofa locomotive apparatus of far grcalei power than any previously used, while ul the same lime the weight of il is so distributed t al (he centre of gravity is placed much lower than usual. To these advantages are added the cor responding power of using driving wheels ol any diameter, together with the great advantage of bringing the largest portion of the entire weight of the engines to bear upon the extreme wheels. The engine has run thirty miles il thirty-three minutes, including the time lost “it gelling up speed.” and in slowly coming to rest Many of these miles were gone over at the rati ofsixly-live miles per hour. A mail train o sixteen carriages, weighing togetlier about eigh ty tons, was taken from Camden Town tc Tritig, up hill nearly the whole way, a dislanci of thirty miles, in forty minutes, including thi stoppages, or at an average speed of lorty-fivi miles per hour, which is equal to about fifty three miles per hour average speed on a level V.

We are told by the Washington correspon dent of the Baltimore Sun, that “the war is to he conducted on the principle of nearly sup porting itself ” —a thing very easy to determine, but very difficult to accomplish. We have heard nothing said lately of that great financial scheme of Secretary Walker, to till our treasu ry by levying duties on imports into Mexico. As there has been no glorification on the sub ject in the Union, we take it for granted that the great financier has been for once baffled— as he will be again if he relies upon “military contributions.”— Rich.

The pru dence and foresight he has evinced, and the wisdom and sagacity ofhis plans, have all been realized in his triumphant progress from Vera Cruz, (including the capture of that city) to ihe capital of Mexico. With a force compara tively insignificant, he has encountered and successfully surmounted every obstacle, and lives, at last, to hearthe plaudits of bis country men, and to he certain that he has earned for himself a name which will he forever remem bered in the annals of the republic. Scott should be met by his country with open arms. \V ith nil odds against him and his own plans not carried out by die government, he yet has ful filled the highest hopes that were raised, in view of the acknowledged bravery of his troops. — Nothing more could oe asked ; ail has been done that the most exacting could require.

An application was accordingly made :o John A. Wiishinton for tins purpose. The Baltimore Clipper says that Inst December Mr. Washington replied that Gen Washington, 1 "ho bequeathed it to John A. Washington (ike father of Hie present John A.) who at bis death left it to Mrs. Jane C. Washington, and on powered her to sell it to the General Govern ment of the United States, if the Government desired to purchase, and she thought it advisa ble for the interests of her children, to sell it. Mrs. Jane C. Washington is now living, and is the present proprietor of Mount Vernon. She authorized her son to say that the Government can obtain 150 acres of Mount Vernon, to in clude the buildings, grounds, mid tomb, on the terms: I. That the remains of Washington, and of every other member of the family now in the family vault Mount Vernon, shall ne ver be removed from their present resting place. 2.

A Hard Hit.—Mexico would never have offered terms no preposterous, if she had not been encouraged by the no territory party, by the Nueces party ut home, by the party which has denounced this war as aggressive, unholy and unjust on our part.— Unton. x This is a very unkind bit at Mr. Polk.

The “Gorgon Knot.”—ln the Inst number of the Journal, the Editor, in speaking of the difficulties which environ the question. What shall he done wish Mexico? says he goes “for cutting the Gorgon knot with the sword.” Now we suppose the allusion intended was to the Gordian knot cut by Alexander, hut the mistake affords as truthful a representation of the fearful condition of affairs connected with this war as could well he exhibited. They are in a Gorgon knot. The Gorgons, so ihe my thologists tell us, were three sisters whose heads were entwined with serpents. Perseus attack ed them, obtained an easy victory, and cut off the head of Medusa, one of the sisters, and took it away as a trophy. Whilst he was returning from the com/nest, the. drops of blood trhirh fell to the ground from the head trere changed into srr pents, which have ever since infested the. country where they fell. Onr American Persenses have conquered their country’s enemies and taken off' their heads, but let the nation beware of the broods of serpents which are yet to spring into life from the falling drops of blood.— Wilmington Chronicle. Mr. Buchanan.—The Washington corres pondent of the Baltimore Sun, who pretends to be behind the scenes, and probably is. in a laic letter, says: “ Mr. Buchanan has consented that his name shall he used as a candidate for the Presidency.” Will (he Union, in the event of his nomination, reward “ the great moral crime” of which he was guilty in opposing the last war, by aiding in the elevation of *• a moral traitor” of that time to the Presidency T If so. it might as well cease writing its long and learn ed essays upon the “moral treason” of “ the Mexican Whigs”—for w e think it can he shown that if the lath r arc traitors, those who opposed the war of 1812. when onr own soil was pollu ted by the invader, and even onr capital in ruins, were something far worse ! — Richmond Whig.

But when mat portion ot the Mexican Republic demanded hy the l*re»i dent is described uniformly hy all who have seen it, as sterile and barren, as if the curse of God had blasted it. is it wise or patriotic, for the purpose of securing an red. lo incur the hazard of forfeiting all ihe hle»*mg* which have result ed from tiie Liiioii, and winch will he perpetu ated hy its pieservaiion, simply because, if we decline to do so, our motives may he liable to liiiaconstructiun, and we may perchance incur the “derision” of foreign despot* and their hirelings, in w hose vocabulary Might and Right are convertible terms ? We think not. But iu truth the South Carolina resolution is based upon an erroneous a»*uiupliou. iu argu ing that the Nor turn people are unanimously iu favor of the acquisition of'territory, and the Southern as unanimously averse to it —and dial for the reason that, it il shall he acquired, slavery will he forever excluded from it. it lilts were true, we might, with some show ol justice he charged with disgraceful timidity, mid he til subjects for the so much dreaded “derision of the world.” Bui the fact i olherwise. A very large proportion of the people of the uou'slaveholdifig Stales—we have no doubt a very large majority of them— are themselves opposed lo ihe dismemberment of Mexico: and it is remarkable that Uiey are denounced by the Northern supporters of ter ritorial acquisition, as being mllue iced hy the “ threats us the Stare power to dissolve Ihe L’nioii. just as the Southern opponents of ac quisition arc charged with being operated upon by the avowed determination of the ilino: pro viso advocates to form ut ot it when acquired. “ a cordon ulTree Stale*.
