Mow for the Contrast 1
In IS4G, when hostilities broke out between j
This country and Mexico, a certain act was
passed by Congress by a vote of one hundred
and seventy-four yeas to fourteen nays, declar
ing'that the* Avar was brought on B\ Till’
ACT OF MEXICO. Among the yeas, it was
a source of gratification to us, and no doubt
to the people of Georgia, that every represen
tative from this State,* gave his vote, ate to
to the bill. But what a sad picture does the
above vote now present to us. Two of our
members, THOMAS BUTLER KING and
ROBERT TOOMBS, wire voted in DO >, that
the Avar Avas brought on by the ad of Mexi
co, in ISIS, Ave find voting that the Avar was
**xtnneressarihj and ttneorttfttutiontilly begun by
the President of the United States:" and voting
Avith them we find the name of ALEXANDER
HAMILTON STEPHENS! another repre
sentative from Georgia! Scripture teaches
ns, that he wlto is not for us is against us.
Common sense teaches us, that he a\ ho is not
for his country is against it. Two of our rep
resentatives have been for and against, and
another is now found in. their company !
We Avill not place these three members, nor
use the terms that their change ot position
provokes, but leave that for the people of this
State and Union to do. That their course on
this question may not be forgotten by the
present generation or posterity, avc place them,
with the company they have selected, in op
posite columns, and shall keep the list in our
paper until their names become as familiar as
household words. Here they are :
1846. 1848.

IVIj zican Correspondence-
The annexed letters froixi one of our cor
respondents in the city of Mexico were des
patched by the way of Orizaba, and only reach- j
ed \ era Cruz on the 11th inst. They Avere I
due a Avock since and wo were afraid had been j

forwarded to us at the same time by the Jalaoa

[ Special Correspondence ot the Pica •nine.']
Mexico, Dec. 20, IS 17.
Yesterday, Gens. Butler and Lane arrived j
in this city, and this afternoon Cel. Johnson
came in with his command from Ayotla.—
Strange to say no mail came in Avith them,
except the letters by the British packet, and ;
it is now supposed that, by some unaccoun
table error, it must have been left at Puebla. ■
Considering the anxiety that is naturally felt j
here by every one to receive news from homo,
this negligence is unpardonable.
Riley’s brigade is now comfortably domicil
ed at Tacubaya, and on Sunday Chushiug’s
brigade moved to San Angel. This Ta<t com
mand consists of the Ist and 2d Pennsylvania,
Ncav York, South Carolina and Massachusetts
Yolunteers. These removals make room for
the new troops, and, as Gen. Marshall is ex
pected in a Avcek or two, Avith some five or
six thousand men, still further movements
must be made. Apropos of movements, report
has it that the end of this Avc.k Avill see a
march for Clue retaro. Toluca and San Luis.
Gen. Cadwalader is spoken of for the first, and
Gen. Patterson for the latter place. Nothing
certain is yet know on the subject, but it j
Avould not surprise me to sec a movement
made at the time designated.
1 attended the rail road meeting held at
Paoli's on Saturday afternoon last, and lound
the room Avell tilled. Among the speakers
were Lieut. Col. Iledert, of Louisiana, Lieut.
Col. Black, of Pennsylvania, Lieut Caldwell,
of the Marinos, and Mr. McMiekeu.our Avorthy
postmaster. This thing has passed a joke.—
When men like Col. 1J chert, a practical en
gineer and man of noted scientific attainments,
take up a measure of the kind, it is an evidence
at least of the entire practicability of the
scheme. Col. Hebert stated that he held in
his han 1 a survey of t ic route, made in 1832,
and that the rail road could be made at the
almost incredibly low cost of five millions of
dollars —less than fifteen thousand dollars a
mile. Col. Black expatiated On the benefits
the proposed rail road Avould confer on the
native Indians of the country, Avhom he com
pared to two-legged muloe; but Col. Hebert
stated that from this very class the greatest
opposition might be expected, and said that
he had every reason to believe the carjadores
were about getting up a pronunci unento against
the measure, lie cited the fa -t of a law be
ing passed by the Mexican Congress, some
years ago, that no Avagon tire should bo less
than nine inches broad, Avhich law Avas actual
ly now on record, and Avas caused by an cn
t uprising American, from Troy, New York,
importing some narrow-Avheeled wagors,which
from their superior speed, threatened to no
nopoiize the trade ox the Republic.
Although this movement may be, and
d mbtless is, somewhat premature, there is a
doubt on my mind that this rail road w ill be
built, and at to very remote period. The
survey,made by accomplished engineers,*lioa\
a straight line from Vera Cruz to Mexico.—
The road pass over no mouutai is, and crosses
no swamps; the ascent, through great, is very
gradual —not more than a yard and a qu liter
in every hundred —and the nature ot toe
ground extremely favorable. Ihe Almighty
himself seems to have poiute I out the way
by Avhich the two extremes of the country arc
to bo united. The road passes to the south ol
I Orizaba and strikes Tiiscala, to the north oi
j Puebla, from whence a branch Avas to connect
! the latter city. "When avc look at the vast ad
j vantages attendant upon the building of this
l road, a stranger in the inert and lifeless char
-1 actcr of the Mexican people Avould deem it
impossible that such a length of time should
have elapsed since the establishment of their
independence and yet no steps have been ta
ken towards such an obviously beneficial un
dertaking. Such is, nevertheless, the case,
and it remains for the strong-minded and en
terprising decondants of the Anglo-Saxons to
confer upon this benighted people the benefits
of civilization, first of which is the propofbd j
rail road.
At the “National,” on Sunday night last, we
had a Spanish version of•• The Revolt of the
Harem,” in Avhich the fair Od alls que« are con
verted into p regiment of soldiers, the charm
ing Canete personating the drummer boy. —
The Avay they performed their evolutions
would be a pattern to many as our best regi
i ments, and they went through the entire |
j manual to tho tap of the drum, not a word of
i command being giA'cn. The Avholc piece was
receive ! with shouts of applause. On Friday
night next we are to have a noval entertain
ment, for the benefit ofthe ladies of the es
tablishment, the male performers being entire

Mexico, Dec. 2G, 1817-
Ycsterday was Christmas Day,and as in duty
bound, every body took a holiday, and remem
bered absent friends at the dinner table. The
streets Averc filled Avith Mexican ladies dressed
in their gayest attire, and the churches and
public buildings were decorated with bran
ches of palm and spruce, according to
established custom. About 3 o'clock in
the after - oon, a special courier arrived
from Avith the President’s mes
sage, sent by Mr. Peoples, ofthe Star, which
paper published it in an extra this morning, or
at least that portion of it relating to the war.
To-day a party left for Pachuca, a place a
bout eighty miles to the northeast of this, and
a short distance from the silver mines of Real
del Monte. I understand their purpose is to
collect the revenue on silver bars manufac
tured there by an English company. The
party consisted of the 9th Regiment of Infan
try, a squadron of dragoons, and a couple of
artillery, the whole under the command of
Col. Withers, of the 9th. They return in ten
or twelve days.
Capt. Lewis’s company of Louisiana moun
; ted volunteers arrived here with Gen. Lane,
and are to leave for Vera Cruz to-morrow. Ij
shall send iilcs of papers by him.
The Mexican prisoners taken by our army
in the valley of Mexico were released on Wed
nesday last, by Gen. Scott, they giving their
parole of honor not to take up arms against us,
which parole Las received the solemn sactiou
of the church. 1 saw several cf them in the
street on Thursday, and they each bore a pa
per containing their parole, and signed by the
Archbishop and principal Alcalde. These men
were taken lighting the battles of their coun
i t rv , and yet, had it not been for the humani
ty’of their con querors,thay would have starved
in prison; while the principal ladies and citi
zens of this city vied with each other in send-
iqg costly food and delicacies to the infamous {
San Patricio de serter's,leaving their own conn- I
tryinen to die of hunger for all they knew or
cared. This is Mexican gratitude.
On Tuesday last a Mexican policeman shot
a private in the Kentucky regiment though '
j the head, and killed him instantly. He Avas i
■ taken to the guardhouse; but on examination it |
turned out that it was entirely accidental, the i
sholdier having given him a revolver to look i
at, Avhen it exploded in Lis hands. He was
released.
The Ayuntamiento ha? been dissolved by
order of Gen. Smith. This step Avas rendered
absolutely necessary by the duplicity Avhich
has chavact rized their proceedings towards
the American authorities. The municipal
elections of Mexico, according to law, must be
held on certain days, and the Governor ordered
them to be so held. The Government at Quere
taro, however, had forbidden the holding of '
elections in any place occupied by the Ameri
can army; and in obedience to these orders,
the Ayuntamiento postponed the elections,
telling the Governor that it was done to pre
vent disorders. The elections Avere held, how
ever. and a new council chosen, Avhom the old
one immediately accused of violating the de
cree of the Mexican Government. They also
accused the council elect of acting illegally, be
fore a Mexican criminal judge, who decided
that the new election was valid and according
to law. Acting under this sanction, the Goa'-
ernor dissolved the old council and installed
the n ;av. The folloAving are their names;
Ist Alcalde, Lie. Francisco S. Iriarte; 2d do.
Antonio Garay; 3d do. Tiburcio Oanas; 4th

In the Repubiicano,published at Guadalajara,
is a paragraph stating that “Scnor 1). Francis
co Riband, commander of the squadron, has
been, named by the Supreme Government
Commander-General oi the Navy ofthe South,
Avhose station is established atTepic until new
orders.” YTxere-the deuce is his squadron?
On Friday night, the actresses of the Spanish
company took a benefit at the National, on
Avhich occasion they excluded all the male
portion of the company from the stage, filling
all the characters themselves. The piece was
a doleful tragedy called. “El Trovador,” and
there av as any quantity of legs displayed on
the occasion, cased in every variety of tights.
One pair of browns commanded attention by
their plump proportions and perfect symmetry.
On Tuesday next the acton of the same com
pany take a benefit, Avhen they intend to
“swap” characters Avith the ladies, and, as they
say in their announcement, “descend from the
dignity of lords ofthe creation, even to the
degree of surrounding our waists Avith the
crafty and deceiving petticoats.” 'This nnill no j
doubt be a rich affair.
9 o’clock, P. M. —I have just heard, from
good authority, that orders have been issued
for the departure ofthe divisions of Mnj. Gens.
Butler and Patterson the latter end of this or
commencement of next Aveek. They are to
move on San Luis Potosi, and at a point this
ride of that place are to diverge—the one to
Z icatecas and the other to a tov\ n to the south
east of San Luis. This is the plan of operations j
at present, and all I have been able to gather [
un the subject. The movement Avill take place j
as soon as the quartermasters can fit the ex
pedition out.
The news from Queretaro is not of much
importance. There has been an attempted
revelation there, Avhich Avas put doAvn by
President Anaya, assisted by two corps of
artillery. The ringleaders are determined to
Avait until Anays leaves the presidential chair,
which Avill be on the Bth of January, Avhen
Congress meets, and the Constitutional Presi
dent will be declared. Herrera is said to be
the man. The leaders ofthe revolt have Avrit
ten to the Governors and Legislatures of the
different States, denouncing Anaya a* a friend
to peace. The late Liav for the better regula
tion ofthe army appears to have created much
dissatisfaction among the officers and soldiers,
particularly the clause reducing their pay.
j The Curreo National contains a long list ofthe
resignations of different officers—generals in
cluded —who appear to think there may be
some prospect of a fight. Mora is about to de
mand. satisfaction Iron Gen. Scott for his
order relative to guerrilleros. The late municipal
elections in this city appear to have created
some excitement in Queretaro- They complain
bitterly of the election of foreigners. e. c.
From Taaiimco.—Vv'c have copies of El No
ticioso, of Tampico, of the oth and Sth inst.,
brought by the U. S. propeller Secretary Mat ey.
This paper oi the Sth inst. that it has re
cnA'ecl news from Tuspan which mentions that
Com. Connor Avas preparing to disembark some
troops there, permanently to garrison the
tOAVit,
Ti c Indian population, Avhich rose in insur
rection at Huasteca, had lately entered the A'll
-3 iltc of Tamiahua to the number of 600 men,
and Avere threatening Tuspan. They had plun
dered the haciendas of Scnores Francos.
They have a rumor in Tampico that peace
Avill be made with this country by tho month of
April. They derive it by letter from Mexico.
The editor of El Noticioso is incredulous.
Tekrirle Steamroat Disaster.— Deplora-
hie Loss of Life. —By the arrival of the Childe
Harold yesterday we learned from her officers
and passengers of another terrible disaster,
by which probably forty lives were lost. The
steamboat Y all-, bus ha, from Red River for this
port with a full cargo of cotton, was entirely
destroyed by fire the night of Tuesday last,
the 18th inst. The catastrophe occurred at
about 9 o’clock, when opposite the College,
below Donaldsonville. The following is as
full a list of the passengers lost as we have
been able to obtain: Mrs. Jane Chamberlin and
child, Mr. Nichols and child, Miss France*
Johnson, Mrs. Bernard and children. Rev. Mr.
Page, of Shreveport, and his two children, and
a son of J udge AVells.
Among those who were saved were Mrs.
Page, (wife of the Rev. Mr. I'age,) Mr. and
Mrs. Piles of Texas, Miss Godwin of Illinois,
Mr. P.. I*l. Johnson, wife and daughter, Mr.
Benj. O. Ware, Mr. N. 11. Batesman, W. Cul
vert of Kentucky, J. M. Yancey and AV. Os
b mrnoof New Orleans, A Boggs, of Illinois,
! F. Buck of Ohio, W. Pelson, A AV. Owlngs,
i Gen. L. A. D- Givens of Mississippi, Dr. M all
I and lad v of Texas, and several others whose
! names we have not learned. Most of the pas
; sengers who were saved came down to the city
on the Childe Harold. A gentleman who was
a passenger and escaped injury informs us that
: there were over one hundred souls on board,
I and that in his opinion fully forty were lost.

THE PECTORAL EPIXIR is the safest of all

contains no Mercury or any other drug that would
prove injurious by long use, as it is composed en

It is the most speedy, because it lias a direct
and specific action upon the organs of the chest,
and consequently loses none of its energies on
other parts of the system.
It is the most pleasant, because it docs not pos
