TATLOWS AROE TO TEE RIO GILANISZIi. We agree with the Gazette of the 12th that "falsehood, in whatever corm attempted to be palmed upon the nubile, is odious and-dierep+ utahle,,and demands a Prenipt refutation.".... Believing thus we timld have promptly refit ted some of the "falsehoods" in 'Ai l article ,from which •we have quoted ' the shrive,' in our last, had time and space permitted. We shall do s a now, however :,i , , • 1 The Gazette says: "A gentleman (meaning Judge Thompson) of high Political standing recently asserted in thislitace, publicly, a shameless falsehood, viz: that Gen. Taylor advisctd;the'step which brotight about hostilties. This cla-go was made for the purpose of ex culpating President Polk and hisimmediate counsellors from blame in the matter." ~ - Now, Judge Thompson asserted no such thing. He merely i femarkeil that the whiga said the march of 4he Army from Corpus Christi to the Rio Grande, "brought about actual hostil ities," 'and that General Taylor advised that movement. 'Whether that movement"brought _ about actual hostilities" or not—or whether a collision would have been avoided; if - the march had not been made, is a debatable ques tion. Thus is "falsehood" numher' i one "re , fined." i Judge Thompson made' no charge 1"for the •purpose of exculpating President Polk MO, his immediate counsellors from blame in the matter." He made l the charge we have named to show the inconsistency of whigery in supporting the very mail for Pres ' idept who advised the measure, Which they (the whigs) say "brought about this unnatu ral war between two .Republics." I Thus , is , , "falsehood" number ao "refuted."! 1 • , But the Gazette denies that GO, Taylor advised the march of the army 'to 'the Rib .1 - Grande. To prove that this ()"snial i s a "falt l e hood"—that he did advise the ma rch of the army to the Rio Gratrile, , and that he oii)y modified such advice upon certain ontirigeim cies, which contingencies did not ' exist' "on _ the 13th of Januar/I ,When the "War Dpart ment peremptorily ordered- him tp advance hi's position," as he himself had adtlsed—rind that to Make 'Mit a case, the Gazette has wilfully garbled one portion of the correspon dence, and purposely. suppressed another, thereby perpetrating itself a !"falsehood"—is what we Anil now endeavor to prave.' For this purpose! like the Gazette'we "Aral mere ly give FACTS as recorded in official dude ments, leaving the impartial ruder to . draw ... , his own deductions and colictmc2ions." And if,.in_so doing, We occupy mob than we can well•spare, we trust our readers will not ,think it uninnfitably employed, as it will place the whole Matter in its true light. ' That the Administration intend to insist, in ail neg otiations With Mjxico,after the Annex- Lion o f Texas, lipool our claim to' he Rio i I ; I Gran tie, no one, we e belieVe, has everintended or atqmpied to deny. The right of Te •as to that boundary has nothing whatever to d with the issue between us_and the Gazette. The question simply is, did, cirdid not; Ge Taylor advise the forward movement of the Ati ni. tn i from Corpus Christi to the Rio Grande: Tsi , prove that he did, it may not be improper to•review the correspondence previous- to the letter recommending that, measure, which we titian give in Mil.
