One of thu most extraordinary move
ments of the present Administration was
the admission of Santa Anna through the
gulf squadron on his way to the country
which is one day elevating her sons to the
highest offices and the next exiling them.
Yet, the reasons of the admission home
again bv the President are plausible
r • 1
enough. The people were very desirous
to know about tire mailer; and wiih very
commendable honesty, the President, as
soon as the proper time came, expressly
stated them in his official message. But
this “pass” appears to be the butt still of
every little driveller in the country who
is opposed to the Administration. Black
guards—whose wit, (die bad with the
good) constitute as important a c »lurnn in
some newspapers, one would think, as
matters of a more wholesome tendency—
a re forever ringing the monotonous chang
es upon “Mr. Polk’s pass.” And editors
of superior intelligence, indisposed to the
utterance of mere 'Porn Jonesisms. make
the same subject matter of consi » able
importance by very labored disquisitions.
There is one advantage in the course of
the latter—they are und s urlel by lie
reflection that they corrupt the public
mind—and incur the contempt of liheial
and intelligent men, to whom dirty witti
cisms and tde personalities biing no
pleasure or respect.
In view of the manifested character of
(lie Mexican leader, and his knowledge of
the power of the country with which his
own was at war, it was no great mi< s ep
to have approached him bv a negotia
tion to which everything had given pre
mise. But Santa Anna, like his country
men generally, had no confidence in the
determination of the pro-ecution of the
war by the United Slates; and if with a
large army be could have routed inferior
f >rccs, bv this time peace would have
been made, because,ifat any day be wish
rd to accept it by nego iation, it was there
for his acceptance; and at the same time
his military genius would have received
additional fame from his own country and
ours, in common with the world! But
Santa Anna mistook Mr. Polk as much
as Mr. Polk mistook Santa Anna. It was
a good movement on the part of Mr. Polk
in consideration of the probai I" play of
Santa Anna, influenced by that move
ment, But the Mexican general under
a ood that perfectly, and commenced a
new series of movements in ano'her qua r
te.r, where the probabilities were more
numerous of assisting him out ofihggame
altogether, with honor to himself. Bui
here Uncle Sam disappointed him by im
prohable results.
There is much, no doubt, to exonerate
the P'esident in the admission of the
Mexican. It is true, that the war would
have been continued whether he had
granted the passor not. And as to the lead
ership of the armies of the enemy, it would
have bean difficult to have obtained a man
in all MHxico who could have been loss
favored by the fortune of wa r . Morales
or La Vega would have done us infinitely
more till m that this general, in the con-
Acts fiom wh ch be fl d. It is a vcy
fortunate thing for Mr. Polk that Santa
Anna seemed to have lost his original
pluck. For if he had been victorious—
as be ought from his superior forces to
have been—we rcallv do not know what
would have been to pay,to gel the President
clear of a difficulty which he had got
himself into with the best motives in the
wot Id. BeS f —for it was fiber for his
country’s welfaiß, or if was not, that Mr.
.Polk pursued this policy. If it were
those motives were praiseWor by. if- it
were not, lie must be a traitor of the first
water. But what reasonable man can
solemnly say so? And is it not a burles
que upon party sincerity to deal in de
nunciations so extravagant. — N. O. Mcr

Wista s Balsam of Wild Cherry.
There is much tampering with the fearful mala
dy, Consumption, ahd numberless alleged reme
dies exist, which are but so many obstacles in the
way of the proper treatment the disease. The
Allowing letter from a highly respectable gentle
man of tliis city, corroborates our previous im
pressions, that VVistar’s Balsam was none of those
nostrums.
Boston, April 1 1,1846,
Dr. Seth W. Fowle.—Dear Sir, I have been in
duced at the suggestion of many of my friends, to
make know n to the public, through you, the great
benefit I have derived from the use of the medi
cine called “VVISTARS BALSAM Os WILD
CHERRY,” in the hope that others suffering with
lung complaints may find the same relief by its
use that I have done.
The latter part of last summer and in the fall, I
suffered greatly from a severe cough, pain in the
side, difficulty in breathing, loss of appetite, and
other symptoms which indicated a rapid decline
three of the most learned and intelligent medical
practitioners in the city pronounced my case con
sumption, and stated to me that nothing but a
change of climate could be of the least possible
benefit to me, as my lungs were in a very inflamed
and diseased state. At this time, in hopes that I
might find some temporary relief for my cough, I
bought a bottle of the Balsam, which nut only
gave me the relief that my failing stength required
but seemed to give me new life and energy.
After taking several bottles of the medicine, ray
appetite returned, and with it my strength; my
rough entirely left me, as also the night sweats,
which previous to this time had been very profuse.
In five weeks time 1 gained eight pounds of flesh
and have been enabled ever since to take my ac
».iatoißcd exercise, a walk of from three to four
miles a day, and attend to my regular business.—
I should be most happy to have you refer any one,
who may wish further particulars to me, at rav
place of business. No. 305 Washington street.
Very ti uly yours,
WM. H. HOLBROOK.

The amount of suffering relieved by the invalu
able preparation is without a. parallel in thishisto
| ry of medicine. Thousands have been restored to
| health by its healing and regenerating efficacy,
who were considered past the reach of remedial
means, as various certificates heretofore published
abundantly prove. It has received the entire ap
probation of many practitioners in this and other
i cities, and its rapid growth in the estimation of the
public has placed it beyond the reach of detrac
tion or the eff.rtsand competition. Diseases which
arise from imparity of the blood or vitiation of the
humours generally, such as Scrofula or King’s
Evil, Rheumatism and Incipient Gout. Salt Rheum
and other cutaneous diseases. Fever Sores, Inter

ceration of the Throat and Nostrils, painful Affec'-

by its use.
