i Temperance Lecture,— -The Rev. John Chambers,
of Philadelphia, at the request of the friends of the
cause, will return to Carlisle on the 14th inst.,forthe
purpose of delivering ohc or more led arcs in defence
erf the principles of Temperance. . The first lecture
will bo delivered in the Firgt Presbyterian Church.
The principal object in Mr, Chambers again-paying
our town a visit, as we have been told, la for the pur
pose .of. answering the objections contained,in a Ye
cent discourse of Rev. Mr. Lillie, in which ho took
strong • grounds against' the: order of the Sons of
Temperance. \Vo have ho doubt the controversy be
tween these two-gentlemen will wax. warm, and \vo
would suggest that three or four gentlemen be selec
ted to preside at each meeting during the controver
sy to act as Moderators.
Valentines.— Knccdler has supplied himself with
a splendid variety. Call at his store, next door to

Dickinson College. —Wo learn that an . effort is
being made in the Stqte Legislature to get a* bill
passed exempting this institution from the payment
of taxes.' Wo hopc.uo each bill will pass. Why
should this college refuse to pay taxes, w.oshould liSto
io know? Wo liopo the members from this county
-are- acquainted with the voice of their constituents
'on this subject. If-they are they will oppose the
passage of the bill in question.. \>
Comb. Val. Rail-Road.— Tho Board of Directors
of this company have determined to lay the entire
road, from the Susquehaha to Chambersburg, with a
riow lrack of T rails. Glad to hoar it. -

is on his way to the United State* on leave of ab
sence.' Maj. S» has performed good service in Mexi
co, and his friend* wiirhniMii* return home with joy.
Mexican Cannon.—A joint resolution, lulroduAtd 1
by Capli Small, has passed both (louses of (ho Leg-1
uleturo, directing the Adjutant General to have the I
two Mexican Cannon taken at the battle of Cerro
Gordo, iboonted, and placed in ihe rotunda of the
Capita).' This resolution called forth quite an.exci
ting'debate in the House, in which a number ol
hpnorablomembers participated. Mr. Evans, (he
Federal member from Chester, objected to (ho cannon
being placed in (he Capital, said it was the place
prevailed, and thought its sanctity would
be invaded by bringing into it.tbe implements of war.
He moved to amendby substituting the Slate Arse
nal. 1 Col. Myers, of old Berks, replied, that he
thought these trophies should bo placed where (hey
could be gazed.upon with admiration, as evidence of
the valor of our soldiers. Ho did not suppose that
(heir presence in the Capital would intimidate any
one.. Ho avowed, that although by no means boust
‘ fill of courage, ho was not a bit afraid of spiled
-cannon! After some other debate the Resolution
passed almost unanimously, mthonl an amendment,
which some one offered, that the member from
Chester should first be allowed lime to have his life
insured/
Wmo National Contention. —A meeting of (be
Federal members of both Houses of Congress was
bold at Washington on the 3d instant, at which it
was resolved that the Wings would hold a National
Convention, to mcetin Independence Hall, in the city
of Philadelphia, on the 7lh day .of Juno next*
“To mcctinlndcpcndonco Halil” Really our
'Federal opponents should bo afraid to meet inside
the walla of this famous old building.- It is no place
(or traitors and blue-light Federalists to congregate.
It is an attempt to disgrace that noble bid building.
-Let'the Federalists meet some place else—in. the
same building, for instance, in which the Hartford
Contention Federalists assembled on another occa
sion. It would bo a much more appropriate place
' for the meeting of the Federal National Convention.
’Should our opponents persist in occupying Indcpen

surprised if tho walls of thot honored old edifice
should crumble down upon the tory heads of those

edin the House', instructing the Judiciary Committee
to inquire into the expediency of reporting a bill,
vesting la Courts of Justice the right to fix llio place

iOn the result of the-next election depends whether
the people are to continue supreme, or. Whether llicy
are to bb'qpmo ; aubserylch’t, tbi'the bidding |
(of political gamesters, bcadbQ by such traitors .to their j
i country: »VClay, Webster, Corwin & Co. The next
election will be one of^ the greatest imporlilnce lo.lho
people oT tlnscoimtry—it\ will boa period to (try
men’s souls. ,:-Tho same party With, which we had to
■ contend during the struggle of the Revolution, and
the same men who plotted freason in ISldj with all
' the-accumulated force their depraved ingenuity with
the aid of ill-gotten power can enlist, ure again nt
1 work in slandering their country. The Federalists
know very well that they never can succeed when
the Democratic parly is.unitod, and their whole ef
forts, at present tiro directed to*create a “ split” in

his duty next,fall 1-His confcioncb will upbraid him

, We have said that the Federalists expect only to
succeed in the next.eloclion in.case,of-a,division in
the Democratic ranks,, and to effect this, they arc
using every means, fair and foul. Throughout, the
.whole country, north, south,cast and west, they have
set their ■netts, and .are lying-in wail to,entrap the
‘people, by iheir insidious and detestable pretensions
of such (friendship as vultures give loJambs,—-
Thb,seeds, of discord and disunion—snob os the
VVilmol Proviso, Slc, —have been sown, and our po
litical opponents—those who have afforded.** aid and
comfort” to the Mexicans, and prayed that the
American soldiers might meet with “ hospitable
j graves” —are exulting in the vain hope of a fr uitful
harvest. But it is indeed a vain hope if lho democ
racy do their duty. . Let us be firm—let u& be united
—and wo need not heed their threats of vengeance
or their shouts of anticipated triumph. The band
oftruitors and political gamblers who areiiow leag

country in the eyes of llio world, will bo brought lo
the dust, and “yicroaV? will again perch upon the
bannoc under whoso silken folds the Democratic
parly liove so often fought and conquered. Let every
Democrat, therefore, prepare himself for the great
buttle next fall,.and Instead of disputing about the
claims of this or that, man for a jiominalion, let us
all resolve to support the nominee of the National
Convention. This shbfild bo the course ofevery true
Democrat Demagogues, and men, without, chorac
ter of' principle, may attempt to carry.favor with a
few, by pretendingfriendship fora particular candidate*
but the people care little about those raush-rooirr poli-
Iliciana. Ho who receives the nomination of the 4th
of May National Convention must receive the unit
cd, hearty and zealous support of the whole pai(y—
and it matters Utile to the Democratic parly who the
nominee may be. Let all Democrats who love their
country, and who despise our treacherous political
opponents, determine upon victoiy next fall, and all
the cunning of such men as Clay and Webster, and
the lick-spittles who.-do their bidding, will avail
them nothing—tho resistless breezes of popular feel
ing will sweep onward and onward, until every
fragment of Federalism will bo scattered to tho four
winds of heaven. ,

“WHIG” SENTIMENT*
Below will, be found a small specimen of Whig (
sentiment—such as has been reiterated, (in effect, ;
and almost exactly in tho same language,) on nearly ,
every occasion, in and.out. of Congress, when our
political friends have adverted to tho Tariff of 1646,
as a cause ofour prosperity during tho past year: 1
" Mr. Polk boasts, and probably truly, of tho com
mercial and agricultural prosperity of his country.
But he ought to bo reminded, thut groat part of Ea.
ropo was, during the paal year, tributary to America
for food nnd provisions. The gold of England,
France, Belgium, Germany, Spain, Scotland and
Ireland, have gone, during 1847, to swell the coffers
of the American farmer, merchant, factor, aud ship*
owner. But, oro the year 1848 shall have Bounded
its knell, America moy hare known and fell worse
a crises than any endured by Great Britain. •

from whence emanated this good 41 Whig" doctrine,

Fellow-citizens, tho present war with Mexico is
one admirably calculated to call forth tho patriotism
of tho republic.- PalriotUtii..fe.-dn'old and sterling
virtue. It w.as ; at the head, of the whole class ol
ancient virtues. , It-was held in so much esteem in
Greece, that without it no abilities or accomplish,
meats could confer dignity or give character. Jlio
heroes, who.patriotically fought at (tloralhon and
S.ilainis—were they not honored, in their ow n limesi
and have they hot been honored by, all generations
which have succeeded them ? Did not the Romans
declare that'it was a sweet and glorious thing to die
for bno’e country 7 ’ And ia iiot oUt country as mucll

Have wo hot achieved more true’glory than anyma
tion besides'over achieved in the same period ot timer
And shall it bo said, and said truly,of the Ainoricaijs
of tho present time, that they are not patriots, but
traitors 7" It is possible, X-foar, that there are traitors
in this republic; indeed, I may Vcuturc tonsaorUhat
1 think -there arc traitors in.tbls republic at this very
moment; raeh who apparently sympathise more with
the foreign foe than with tlieir own native land, t
trust that tho number is but few; hot the cases arc
conspicuous; The number of patriots is large. I Ap

the national councils and in the States of the-Union

men of whom wo have a right to expect bolter tilings
—who have been active in disseminating principles
which could nht, if acted out, bo rccoghised as aught
I but treason. . I Uae plain language—, speak what I
know-X speak what I feel; aiid I say, that posterity
will speak of these things in terms o. blasting mug

Col. Wynkoop, of the Pennsylvania volunteers.—
From all.that l ean learn the expedition was maim
cert in the most successful manner, and the party
came very near laying hands onPadre Jarauta h» m *

Yesterday Dominguez, tbc Captain of the Mexican
spy company, arrived with a small mail; and brought
intelligence of hia having-hud a brush with a party
of the enemy’s cavalry, between 1 Ojb do Aguaarid
I Napoluca. Tho cavalry he dispersed, and took pri*
I soners Gens. Tonejon, M’mnri and Gaund, who were
with tho putty, and' delivered them-over to Colonel
Childs, ut Puebla, together with two Amcribori de
serters, whom ho found with tho parly. I regret that,
in addition to these captures,! cannot add that of
Gen. Salazar, who rendered himself infamously his
cruelty to tho Santa Fo prisoners. Tho scoundrel
was in the city ? few doys since, upwards oftweftty
fbor fi& family, «nd tbc authorities, on
learning his: whereabouts, sent a body of.soldicrs to
arrest him, but unfortunately ho had loft tho city
about two hours before it was known he was hero.
All the prisoners have bcen-Überated on parole.—
The policy of liberating these men I think extremely
i doubtful. On parole they can go whore they please,
and among their own people can say what they please,
which enables them to do us much more injury..in
exciting the people to acts of hostility than if they
wore never taken prisoners, and their inQuenco' not
confined to such parts of the country only as they
could muster courage to visit. As an instance in
proof of what I soy, I am told by a gentleman who
came.up with Col. Johnson’s train from VoraCrnz,
that on entering one of the small towns at this side
of Puebla, which was an advantageous position to
resist the advance of Col. Johnson, Gen. La Vega,
taken at Huamanlla, and Gen. Heron, taken ot Corro
Gordo, came up with the train on temporary, parole,
addressed the first knot of his countrymen he mot in
the town, and asked them why they wore not up.—
It would be much safer to keep these men confined
here, or send thorn to the United Slates.
It is impossible to say when there will bo a move
ment towards any of the cities still in possession of
tho enemy. Tb>fcommondcr-in*chiof ? confidonl.per-
haps, of a peace resulting from .the proposition of
which it is said the Mexican Government has made,
is not disposed to disturb tho deliberations-of the

of the proposition is known. • • ;

Citv of Mexico, Jan. 13,1646.
J On Monday last the commandor-in-chlcf was; Ini.
tohhod of a movement designed'herd to attack the
quarters oflhe'officers of the arfayiaHdy If possible, ,
to tako'lhcm prisoners or kill them.' The plan ; was, ,
that the population, or s<j much pf It as could bo in
duced to'lake part ih: the conspiracy; should rise,
and, a’Bsißlbd by a body, of guerillas which were to
imter lho oily at a.certain hour, make tho ottaek.—
DuHng the day, the cotnmandcr*in-chief informed all
tho chief officers of tho Intended attack, ddslgnalod
rallying points for the different regiments, and made
every disposition necessary to defeat the insurrection.
At night scarcely a Mexican was to bo seen In the
streets, showing that-tho whole population had d
knowledge of what was to bo attempted. Tho pre
caution adopted, it.lf supposed, prevented an.nltompt
to execute llio plan. The projectors of tho insurrec
tion wero'either blind, to the effects of their plan, or
foreseeing them, must have been utterly reckless os
to the consequences which would result to their,qyv»
countrymen; for if tho attompthad been muds,tlicro
: is not on officer in tho unity, not excepting the coni.
■ manclcr-in chicf himself,, who could have restrained
I thu troops from sacking tho city. ’

The Absorption of Mhilco.M .
The Whig presses arc attempting to phy into the
hnnds of the Whig leaders, by furnishing ibcm wilh
a ridiculous cxcuso for refusing supplies.. The Na
tional Intelligencer of yesterday shows tho.clovcn
fool, when-it gives,us an article oh “The Absorption
of Mexico, in it.on article from the
“Charleston-Evening News,” which, on Ihevery fuce
of it, shows a spirit hostile to'lhc administration and
its friends, and falsely declaring that "tho true issue
involved in tho present conduct of the war i« the de
struction of the national independence of Mexico; and
the people ought so to understand Uat once.” We
deny the position altogether. The friends of the
administration mean to curry out its measures; and
that platform is laid down in the message, which
avows Us design, of preserving the nulionalily of.
Mexico. Tho idea of absorbing lipt is, indeed, “a
painted devil,only to fright “ the eye of child,
hood.” It cannot impose npon an intelligent people,
and is only; brought forth at this lime os a miserable
screen;forjhc course of certain leaders. They will
