TO THE EDITOR AND READERS OF THE "Somes-act VTccfcly Visitor." A PLAIN SIMPLE" QUESTION IN ARITHMETIC AND ONE IX MORALS. The present Polk Tariff was passed in the summer cf 1816, and nest into oper ation on the 1st day of December 18 JO. It reduced the duties imposed n Foreign gflods by the Whig Tariff of 1842, on an average about 35 per cent. In the years 18-15 and 1816 the Potato Crop in many sections of the U. Stales and Europe and especially in Ireland was blasted by a disease called the "Rot.-" The grain crop of 181G was also a failure ia many sections of Europe, though very bountiful in the United Stales. In con sequence of which failure - of both the grain and potatoc crops in Europe, it is supposed that upwards of 100,000 human beings have died by pure starvation, up to the present time, mostly in Ireland, fome in Scotland, France and Belgium, &e. Thousands, yea millions of bushels of wheat, com &c, and barrels of flour, meal, &c, have been shipped from this country to those unfortunate countries at high prices. Shiploads more are now being bought up in our Eastern cities at increasing prices, thus furnishing a mar Vet for the surplus produce of our far mers, such as was never enjoyed before. Now to show that WhigTarifls or Lo cofoco Tariffs have nothing, or very little to do in producing or preventing the ex portation of grain, &.c. from this cauntry, it is only necessary to refer to the Records of cur Government. From the official reports on Commerce and Navigation it , appears that the total amount of Beef, Tallow, IIide3, Butter, Cheese, Pork, Hams, Lard, Wheat, Flour, Indian Corn, Ileal, Rye, Oats, and other small grain, Apples and Potatoes exported by this countrv into Great Britain during 25 years, viz: from 1S21 to 1815 inelusive, was only $25,C05,554, or a trifle over one million per year. In 1831 when the High De mocratic Tariff of 1S2S was ia operation, the exportation cf Wheat, Flour,Corn,Mcal, Rye; Oats and other small grain was the greatest, a mounting to $5,020,123 In 1810 when the compro mise act was at the lowest point, the exportation of the tame articles was the next highest, amounting to $1,119,015 In 1845 under the moderate WhiglPoriff of 1842 the ex portation of same articles, was oi;l 1 In 1S22 prior to the Demo cratic Tariff of 182 4, the ex port was the lowest, consis ting solely ol Cora and Meal being only The average yearly export of same articles during,. the a-Le-vc 23 years was only $14,035 30,011 If any man therefore persist in saying that high Tariffs prevent, or low Tariffs promote the cxrwlaiion of brcadstuffs, &c. he must either be a fool or a knave. Put to the questions. The Editor of last week's Visitor says th:ii "Flour in consequence (of the Tar iff of 1845) is going up, up, up." And further that 'if & Tariff of IS 40 was re pealed sad that of 1812 restored, "Then Flour would no longer go up, but its ten dency would be down, down, down." iksTiox 1. If the Pulk Tariff of 1?IG produced the "Potatoe Rot" in the crips of this Country and Europe for 2 Acflis r.r.d the failure cf the Grain crop of Europe for 1 year before said Tariff went into operation, and by so doing has in creased the prices of breadstuff 53 per cent, what further reduction of the Tariff will produce a Potaloe Rot and Grain failure in the balance of the world .(ex chiding the U. States) and thus raise the price of breadstuff's 100 per cent. ? Question 2. Can that man be honest who attributes to the Tariff of 18 1G, an effect produced by God alone, (viz: a fa mine in one part of jthe earth, by which another section more highly favored i3 benefited,) and thus deceives the people of this country, as to the cause of their pro duce increasing in price ? O. P. Q. - Fur he Herald. Mr. Editor: ' The last Visitor after quoting the s Resolutions of the Massachusetts Legis lature relative to the War says, "to show their sympathy for the Mexican Military plunderers and oppressors of the people," they, the Whigs of the Legislature, the "Mexican Whigs" "had only to go one slep further, by voting a sum for furnish ing the Mexican army with supplies &c." Such a resolution would be "characteris tic" of these Federal Mexican Whigs I suppose. Ah! Mr. Visitor! you forget, don't you? For what did Jemmy Polk give Santa Anna a pass to enter Mexico, but to af ford "aid and comfort to the enemy?" And for what purpose was the 3 million appropriation asked of Congress by Polk, but to pay ofl the Mexican soldiers, &c, as one of his prime supporters, Senator Sevier confessed? For shame that you should be so forgetful and thus steal away from your master he honor of furnishing the Mexican army with officers and sup plies. Sure they have enough until next Congress, when I have no doubt an addi tional sum will be asked and thus relieve the Stale Legislatures from the trouble and expense. Q. Gex. Winfield Scott. The New Orleans Delta says: "The spirit of Lun dy's Laue, of Bridgcwater, and Queens town, pervades ihe general orders of the gallant Scott, issued the day before the battle of "Cerro Gordo." The calm de termination, heroic resolve, firm purpose, and judicious foresight, displayed in this document, must excite the warmest ap plause and highest admiration of every American. In Scott's vocabulary there is no such word as -f;:il." He, never permits a doubt to cross the high purpose he has in view. There is no looking back no return. The enemy's whole line, entrenchments and batteries will be attacked in front, and at the same time turned. And then he is not satisfied with a bare victory! He will not stop his onward course, and quietly repose on his laurels until he is reinforced. But he pushes on, not even resting from the fa tigues and wounds of battle nor awaiting the slow approach of baggngc wagons, but with the determination to reap the benefit as well as the honors of a victory, he pushes forward his columns upon the heels ol the fugitive enemies, and stays not the pursuit until there is not one to follow. Glory, then, to Winfield Scott! and forever silent be the ribald tongue or pen that would link his name with aught that is not glorious m action, invincible in ouragc, and unfailing in source and wis dom." The President. The Baltimore Pa triot after pointing to the errors of the present administration of the Govern ment, says: . , "Mr. Polk has not, in all this, disnp poinled public expectation. Those who opposed his election ta the Presidency in sisted that he was not competent for the office that he neither had the moral in fluence nor the intellectual capacity, which should be possessed by the chief magistrate and predicted that his . ad ministration, if he were elected, would be characterised by contradictions, feebleness and corruption. This was scarcely de nied by gome of his advocates, and to many of them it was a recommendation that the apprehensions were just. "Mr. Polk was elected. What the Whigs insisted of him, he has shown to be true what they predicted of his ad ministration has come to pass. Nobody is deceived. Mr. Polk has fulfilled the public expectation!" Specie. The specie held by the New York and Boston banks, and the sub trea sury, on the 1st instant, is estimated at twenty millions, making altogether twenty-five millions ol dollars. Almost eve ry packet-ship ?md merchantman brings an amount sufficient to pay the duties up on their cargoes, and bnt for tho heavy expenses of the Mexican war, the aspect of the country's finances would be of a most cheering nature; and as it is, with the current of specie running in favor of this country in consequence of the jrre.-it demand fur our breads-tuffa in Europe, ! the financial prospect is vcrv rratHVm. ' bickn. Rep. A Sad Case. A London : paper says: A distressing event connected with the loss of the Tweed, occurred at Southamp ton last week. A wife of one of the crew of that ill-fated vessel,' the mother of six children, dropped down dead on being told abruptly by a neighbor that the Tweed was lost snd that all hands had 1 perished. What renders the circumstance j more affecting is, that the husband arri-! , packet, beinj one of the persons whose 'lives were eo providentially saved. FROM THE SEAT OF WAR. The following facts and speculations from the New Orleans Bulletin are at this moment of great interest, peremptori ly contradicting, as they do, the sugges tion of the government paper that there is nothing to impede Gen. Scott's imme diate march to, and occupation of, the ci ty of Mexico: FROM THE NEW ORLEANS BULLETIN OF - , , - r MAY 7, 1817. : ' '.' The advices from Mexico by the New Orleans, of which we gave a short abstract yesterday, shows the rapid and success ful advance of our army towards the cap ital of Mexico. Not only Jalapa, but Perote, had been occupied by our army; the former is eighty two and a half and the latter one hundred and twenty-one miles from Vera Cruz. A report existed at Vera Cruz that 'Gen. Scott intended t advance on Puebla, eighty-four miles be yond Perote, and ninety-one miles from the capital. - We do not, however, be lieve, from information that we have re ceived, that Geii. Scott has any intention at present of advancing, to Puebla. He has neither the force sufficient to do so, after leaving sufficient gerrisons in his rear to keep open his communications, nor are his arrangements or means ia oth er respects such as would jnstify him iu doing so. Another reason against the probability of Gen. Scott's immediate advance is, that the needful reinforcements and sup plies cannot reach Gen. Taylor to enable him to move on Sau Luis previous to the 1st of July; and if it is the fixed determi nation of the American Government to advance on the capital, they will no doubt wish ti do it by the combined movement of both armies. - We give the proceedings of the Mexi can Congress, after they had received ad vice of the defeat at Ccrro Gorda, and it will be seen that they show no indications of peace. All accounts seem to agree tliat a system of guerilla war is to be a dopted, and that, in fact, it already, exists ul I along the route from Vera Cruz to the army. 'We have 'already considered this mode, and one of attacking our detached posts, and interrupting our line of com munications, as the most effective mode of annoying us. It would require a much larger force on our part, in order to ena ble us to keep open our communications in the rear, and. w:Il occasion us much heavier losses th in we should experience in pitched batdes. ' It is said the British Minister at Mexi co, Mr. Bankhead, is endeavoring 'o bring about a peace. We much doubt his ability or Influence to effect cny thing of the kind. Tho death of Santa Anna, or his fail from power, we believe will tend more to such a result than-any other event, and we think that he is iu a most critical position, both as to his office and life, both of which may depend upon the turning of a hair. - . ' The impression is rapidly guiningground that he has sold himself to the American Government; and, even if 'this report docs not lead to fatal consequences to him self personally, it will tend greatly to des troy his power and influence. LATEST FROM VERA CRUZ. Our friend and correspondent at New Orleans informs us of the arrival there of the steamer James L. Day, from Vera Cruz on the Gth, bringing among her pas sengers Gen. Pillow and Col. May', the latter having got on board at Brasos. The city of Puebla had sent a deputa tion to Gen. Scott, and will made no re sistance to his occupation of thai place. Arrangements had been made to defend the capital, but after Gen. Follow was on board at Vera Cruz he received a mes sage from shore stating that an express had arrived with intelligence that the Mexican Government had abandoned the capital, taking with it the archieves, and that the citizens had sent a- deputation to Gen. Scolt to advance and afford them protection. Proclamations were being circulated by the Mexicans calling for the organiza tion of guerilla regiments, which plan of warfare was to be adopted n an exten sive scale. In consequence cf sickness, death, and loss in battle, it is said that Gen. Scott will not have left in his army more than about 5,000 effective men, after the re turn of the volunteers whose time shortly expires, and whom Gen. Pillow states will return almost to a man. Of the sev en regiments, he says not a company will remain. Santa Anna's army has entirely dis persed, and he, wholly without power and influence, was seeking, to leave his country. Gen. Taylor remained at Monterey, and the main body of his army at Buena ' Vista, without any prospect of an imme- ; diate advance. All the new troops re- cently intended for him were, under a ' new order, to be sent to Vera Cruz. Nat. Ixt. GEN. SHIELDS LIKELY TO RE COVER. A PROSPECT OF PEACE. Fredericksburg, Va., May 14. There have been no later arrivals at New Orlean3 from Vera Cruz or the Bra zs. The Picayune received by to-day's mail, contains a list of the killed and wounded at Cerro Gordo, which'preseuts the following aggregate loss: Regulars -11 officers wounded; 3D of the rank and file killed; wounded 190. Volunteers 1 officer killed and 7 wounded; 3 of the rank and file killed, and 48 wounded. Total killed and woun ded, 307. - "';-- , : -; A letter from the Aid-de-C3mp of Gen eral Shields, published in the Delta, states Ins recovery - to be almost certain. The ball entered the right breast about two in ches below the . nipple, and passing through the right lobe of the lungs wiuV out inflicting any mortal injury. ' - The Mexican officers say that their go vernment have no more guns or ammuni tion, and that peace must speedily ensue. OFFICIAL REPORT OF THE CAP TURE OF TUSPAN. United States Flag Ship Mis- 1 sissippi, at 'Sea, off Vera ' Crcr, April 2 4, 1847. J ; , Sir: Tuxnan being the only fortified place of importance, situated on the Gulf coast, not in our possession, and conceiv ing it to be a point of honor, as well as duty, to reclaim the guns taken by the enemy from the wreck of the Truxton, and mounted with others for the defence of the river and town, I determined on attacking it, and left Sacrilicios in this ship for that purpose on the 12th instant, having in tow the steamers Spitfire, Vix en, and Scourge, and the gun boats Boni ta, Petrel, and Reefer, with a detachment of three hundred officers, and marines from the Ohio, distributed in this and the smaller vessels. On the following day we arrived at Loboss, the appointed place of rendezvous. The Raritan with a detachment "of one hundred and eighty officers, seamen; and marines, from the Potomac, added to her own complement. The Albany, John Adams, and German town, with the bomb-vessels Vesuvius, Etna, and Ilecla, had been previously dispatched for Lobos, where they arrived in good time, and were subsequently join ed by the Decatur. On the 15th all the vessels left Lobos, for the anchorage under Tuxpan reef, but were separa'cd during the night .by a norther. Having again concentrated on the morning of the- 17th, the who'e cf that day was employed 'in lightning the small vessels, in" sounding and buoying the channel of the bar, and in other prep arations for ascending the river. The following morning (the 13th) the bar was safely crossed by the steamers and gun boats, with about thirty barges filled with detachments from the different vessels at anchor outside, having with tliem four pieces cf artillery. After crossing the bar I hoisted my flag cn board the Spitfire, and immediately led up the'river to the attack; the steam ers having the gun boats and barges in tow, until we ot into the range cf fire of the enemy, when I ordered them to cast off; the gun-boats to followed up the river under sail, and the detachments in the bar ges to land with the artillery and storm tb.3 forts and town. These orders were executed with extraordinary rapidity, while the flotilla continued its course up the river, and driving, by its well-directed fiiO, the enemy from his defences. The dispositions of the enemy for de fence were judicious; they consisted of two forts on the right, and on3 on the left bank of the river, with positions well se'ect.nl for . commanding the reaches of ! the slresra. Thev had seven nin3 moun ted and detachments of infantry firing from the forts and the thick chaparral along the margin of the left hank. General Cos, chief of the Winward military division of the Mexican armv, was in command, and had with him, as is believtd from the evident of his order book, about G50 rank and file. But if the dispositions for defence were judicious, tho defence itself was feeble; though, had it been more obstinate, the results would have been the same, for I cannot exaggerate the intrepidity of our officers and men, or say too much of the spirit that animated them. . The Trux ton's guns were brought off, and the others destroyed; the forts were also destroyed. Our loss in the attack lias been small fourteen killed and wounded. The Albany and Reefer had been left to watch Tuxpan; the Ilecla is ordered to blockade Soto de la Marina; the Etna to occupy the river Tabasco; and the Ve suvius and Porpoise the port of Lajuna, while the Germantown is scouring the coast north of Lobos. I am, sir widi great respect, your most ob'tserv't, M. C. PERRY. Cimmandins Home Squadron. The Hon. Josx Y. Mason, Scc'y of the Aai'v. Washington. The killed in the assault were Lewis Clayton, Antonia Francis, and John Griffin, all. seamen; and the wounded were Commander Tainall, Commander Mackenzie, (accidentally,) Lieut. James L. Parker, Lieut. Whittle, Lieut Hart- s'ene, and seamen James McCaun, Hiram Townscud, Andrew Sweeny, Henry O. Hart, James McCullcn, and John Mon roe. More Troops Wanted. A letter from Vera Cruz says: "The roads are still infested with bands of rancheros, or 'greasers, who fire upon our wagoners or small parties every few miles, and frequently with fatal effect. Two wagons passed my hotel to-day, each with a mortally wounded man in it: and I am told that two or three are killed in this manner almost daily, between this city and Jalr.pa. General Scott's force is to small to permit him to detach proper guards and escorts, and at the same time to move forward effectively; and Gover nor Wilson is even weaker, in proportion, than the Commander-in-Chief. ' It is sur prising that so few troops arrive from the United States. Can 'they not be enlis ted?" " The Victims. At a recent public mee ting held at Cork, a gentleman named Lyons, expressed a belief that instead of 210,000 persons having died in Ireland of starvation, (a statement which was denied in the House of Commons,) more than thrice that number had perished from actual want!

The steamship Britannia arrived at Boston oa Sunday night last at 12 o'clock, with advices from Liverpool to the 4th instant. We are indebted to our atten -tive correspondent at BJtimora tor the following synopsis of the news brought by this arrival: The Cotton market was depressed, and prices had declined from one-fourth to one-half penny; Georgia, Gd. to Gf .; Or leans, Gd. to 7 jd. American red wheat 10s. 6d. to lis. 0d. per bushel; Indian corn 5G to 53s. per quarter for yellow, andG'Js. for white. . . The Flour Market was active prices up. Canal 41s. to 42s. The advance 2s. to 3s. per barrel. The Money Market was greatly de pressed. There had been large failures. Bullion in the Bank of England was de creasing. Rate of discount advanced one per cent. The demand was increasing for bread stuffs on the continent. The Lord Lieutenant of Ireland was fast failing in health; no hopes of his re covery. O'Connell was gradually sink- mr. An attempt had been made to assassi nate the Pope, but the plot was discover ed before its consummation. The potato disease had reappeared. Vegetation xvzs backward in France. Spring favorable in Enghnd. There wa3 not much political news of interest. The news of Gen. Paybr's victories had been received with satisfaction in France.
