HEADQUARTERS OF TILE ABUT
Vera Cruz, Aprill I, 1817.
Major General Scott, general•in•cltiel of the
armies of the United States of America, to the
good people of Mexico :
PROCLA NATION.
MEXICAN ! At the head of a powerful at..
mv. ~on to be doubled—a part of which is
a dvancing upon your capital—and with anoth
er army, under Major Gen. Taylor, in march
(rum Saltillo towards San Luis Potosi-1 think
mvoelf called upon to aderess you.
ItlExicsNs ! Americans are - not your ene
mies ; but.the enemies, for a time, of the men
who, a year ago, misgoverned you, and
br,,uon about this unnatural war between two
great republics. We are the. friends of the
peaceful inhabitants of the country we occupy,
and the friends of your holy religiOn, its hie
rarchy and its priesthood. The same church
is found in all parts of our own country. crow
ded with devout Catholics, and respected by
our government, laws. and people.
For the church of Mexico, the unoffending
inhabitzuts of the country; and thzir property,
I have, from the first, done everything in my
power to' place them under the safeguard of
tavtial law against the few bad men in this
army.
31v orders, to that effect, known to all, are
precise and rigorous. Under them, several
Americans have already been punished.
fine, fur the benefit of Mexicans, besides im
prisottruet,t, one fur a rape:has been hung by
the neck.
fs this not a proof of good faith and energet
ic discipline Other pronfseliall be given as
often as to Mexicans luay be, detected.
On the other hand, , iiipiries committed by
individuals, or parties of ~ Mexico, not belong•
rig to the public forces, upon indtviduals,stn:7ll
parties, trains of wagons and learns, or of pack
mules ; or any other person" or property be
longing to this army, contrary to the laws of
war:shall be punished with rigor : or if the
prucular offenders be nut delivered up by
Mcxic in authorities, the punishment shall
tall upon entire cities, towns, or neighbor-
'Let, then, all goad Mexicans remain at
Lome, or at their peaceful nr.copations ; Int
they are invited to bring in, fur sale, horses,
mules, beef, cattle, corn,. barley, wheat, flour
er bread, and vegetables. Cash will be' paid
for eve4thing this army may take to purchase,
au'irpriirection will be given to all the sellers.
The Americans'are strong enotich to olTer these
assiirances—which. shouid !Mexicans wisely
c,c.ept. this war may soon be happily ended,
to the honor and silt anta.e of both belligerents.
Then the Americans, having- converted 'ene
mt,,s into friends, will be happy to take leave
of Mexico and return to ilteir 0%61 country.

FEDERAL CONSISTENCY.—TiIe Argus, a
federal sheet published in Westerd Peunsylvana,
is out with other presses_ of the same party,
in favor of General Taylor as the Federal candi
date for the Presidency. This same At us, in
May 1846, said
• Ile (Gen. Taylor) is als'n the man who re
cornuteuded the BLOOD HOUNDS, that were
put upon the trails of the Indians ; and which
brought the Loco Fuco party i n to such bad re
pute. Ile is; undoubtedl3• a brave man, but--is
thought to be not will qualified for the dutiei
and responsibilities that rest upon him as Com
mander of the Army of Oecupation."
It is proper to remark, .(says the Beaver Star,
iii some remarks upon this unprincipled course
of the Argus.) that the article was puolisted be
fore it Was discovered that Get). Taylor was a
Whig„ which may account for the change that
has come over the tone of the Argus. It is now
wiiling not only tOswallow all it has said in
favor of abolition principles, but will even sup
port the Man wlf4 introduced the ••long tailed,,
soldiers" into the Florida war •• which brotiglh
the Loco Foco party into such bad repute."
THE ASIATIC CIII , LERA.—ThErEastern world
is suffering froM this fearful epidemic to a great
extent. Thousands upon thousands of victims
are added daily, and large cities have been near
ly depopulated. It commenced its progress in
the eastern portion of Persia, and in a short
time spread over the entire country, sweeping
myriads of human beings from the face of the
carte. A writer is describing the progress of
the pestilence, sacs, when it enters the walls of
a coy. it moves along from street to street, and
ward •to ward, as if treading upon the rear of a
slimly retreating foe. In about forty days the
work is done, and it emerges once more into
the open country, and pursues its appointed
journey. The Roston Traveller says that the
number of deaths in Bagdad. from the Cholera
was 7,000—a tearful moil:ably for a single
city ?
The Governor of Louisiana has been author
d to raise five more companies of infantry
and twtrof cavalry,for service during the Mex
ican war.

TII6 rive - HUNOURIII CrhTo.74 et tatting a little open
ing medicine in the Spring olthe year, is founded in
common rim e and sound philosophy. Every one is an -
sible of the inconvenience experienced on the recurrence'
of a warm spell, after a season of cold weather. A feel
ing crf lassitude, drowsiness, sometimes a swimming of
the head and headach, a sense of fulness, and a host of
unpleasant symptoms, are the general results. The
morbid accumulations of winter are set loose by warm
weather, and float in the circulation or lodge in some
pakt of the body. Hence it is perhaps, that Spring is so
fatal to consumptives and others.
For; the purpose of purifying, the blood and other fluids;
there is no medicine superior to Wright's Indian Vege
table Pills, and it is strongly recommended as a Spring
medicine. These Pills act upon the whole system, and
not on one part of it merely, as other pills do. ,llence,
if disease be present in any pit, it must beLlriven
forth.
BLWAIII or Cevarearerrs.—The public are cau
tioned against the many spurious Medicines which, in
order to deceive, are called by names similar to Wright's
Indian Vegetable Pills.
