Tbe two Parlies. It is not without pain tliut, at this mo ment, we write the caption. Wc laid hoped that the spirit of parly would sleep in this business of Mexico. But it bus been fated otherwise. Tbe Whig leaders in the Senate have made their election.— The fiery-eyed head of party spirit is up, and hissing with forked tongue in our high places, even at the moment when patriot ism stretches out its arm to save uur sol diers from threatened slaughter, and to chastise the invaders of our soil, lint let os be just.

No! American eitixeas are not tbc dupes of hirelings, neither are they excited by base and mean passions, or engaged in an unholy cause. 8uch slanders can emcnate from none but their enemies. They are now as they hare ever been and ever will be, worthy of Connecticut, their Revolutionary ancestors—true to themselves Rhode Island, and their country—capable of conquering their; New York, foreign invaders, and appreciating the merits of j ? ew Jv rse y, their domestic foes. In answer lo the-qnestion propoandod to as by the Courier, as to what will be tbe course of policy which the President will pursue towards Mexico, we answer confidently, judging of tbe future by the past, that it will be neither “ temporising” or “ wild and reckless,” but that it will be lulled to tbe oc casion, calm, consistent, firm and energetic. front The Geography of Mexico, Ac, the Baltic Gronud.
