Rktubtj op the Prodigal Sox.—The “ Missis* sippian” contains an article from the pen of Geo. Poindexter, Esq., intended as theJirst of-a series in reply to Mr. Clay’s • speech, and Mr. Gallatin’s pamphlet. The “Vicksburg -Whig”, admits its ability, though it attempts in Vain'to answer its arguments. Mr. P. contrasts Clay’s course in the war of 1812 with his present opposition to his country; and he regrets the aberrations of Mr. Gallatin, pf whom he truly says:. “The annals of history do not furnish us with an example of a foreigner, who has transferred his residence and citizenship from one country to another, through out the civilized world, who has been more cher ished and honored with high official stations by the people und government than was Albert Gallatin with the United States of America.” And yet both Mr. City and Mr. Gallatin have now turfiqd their arms against their country. . The Cause op the War. —Gen. Pierce, in his remarks at'the,reception ‘given*to him in Boston, stated that while.in the city of Mexico lie conver sed daily and freely about the war with Mexican* of all professions, and did not find one who attribu ted its commencement on the part of Mexico to any question of boundary. The army was raised and sent forth for the purpose of reconquering tlie whole of Texas; Intelligent Mexicans laughed at the discussions in the Whig papers about the boundary, although they furnished good material for proclamations to be sent among the ignorant portion of the Mexican people. A CHILD’S grave. It is a place where thankfulness, Its tearful tribute giveth, That one so pure, has left a world Whereso much sorrow liveth, Where trial, to the heavy heart, Its constant cross presenteth, And every hour some trace retains, For which the soul repentuth.

Gish & Co. Its style differs from that usuaHy’em ployed by the author, but we may safely say, that we have seldom read a work of more thrilling in terest. The design of the author is to represent, in the form of attractive romance, the uncertainty of human evidence, and the dangers attending the in fliction of the Death Penalty. Thus, whilst he the taste of the readers of fiction, he at the same time furnishes material for the moralist and the Legislator. We recommend this work to the public, and more especially to the members of the legal profession. “ General Taylor and his Staff, comprising memoirs of Generals Taylor, Worth, Wool , and Butler—Colonels May, Cross , C/ay, Hardin , Ye//, Hays, “ General Scott and his Staff, comprising me moirs of Generals Scott, Twiggs, Pillow, Smith , Quitman, Shields, Lane, #c.” We advise all of our friends, who wish to peruse a short graphic sketch of the lives and actions of most of the distinguished officers tiiat have served, and arc now engaged in the M exican War, to pur chase the above books.
