The Aderaksts.—The War.
the papers . in our country, which support
Democratic measures, and aft the active members
of iheDeuiocratie party, have assumed, from the
outset orthe 'present war, that, in order to 'effect a
.speetly„anil h;?noralka inace, vigorous and efficient
measures must be adtipted ; and, in order to insure
this, unanimity and active co operation on the part
, of our people, were indispehsable. The truth of
those pootio4,.no . sane• man an doubt and the
fact, that acentiary state- oftftingii has prevailed,
to a very great extent, is not to be questioned
The editors of the. Federal presses have unqualified

s! r prejudice Which exists in the country; they
hnie,endea'Vored to array the different religious
sects in their traitorous opposition ; and have ac•
Wally proceeded to such a length, as to draw upon
them 'the especial notice and condemnation of
t4...supprs of monarchy in Europe. Such being
the state of affairs within our own country, on the
Part,ormen who have occupied high public sta
tionS, is it at all wonderful t , that those against
Whom we are contending, , -should adopt.the belief
that,. hy .our own - internal' divisions, the ends at
Which 'Our government is aiming will be defeated.
We think- this is a conclusion necessarily resulting
from such. a state of things ; and if t ttlie dictates of
our own reason would not prompt to such a cod-
elusion, facts, in the past history of our country,
fOrbid asdo think otherwise. The causes which
led-to the i-nfitirionsly celebrated Hartford Conven
_ion, are of tan recent a date, to leatins to doubt ;
-,and . the state of public opinion which was known
Ora exist in certain Federal quarters then, has its
parallel in a greater number of neighborhood:,
now—from the greater spread of population in our
country.
Almost every account which we receive from
Alerciecyass.uresus that the cuorse pursued - by_iirost
•ofl - s
the, leading Federalists of our country, -- the
one, of all others which cmild be resorted to, best
calonlated to encourage the oppressors of that in
fatuated people in-the belief that the war will yet
be brought to a close, in dishonor to us as a people;
.--arid , l.e'ave them the privilege offmsulting our dig,
and defrauding our- citizens, as they have hereto- I
Sure done.. The last arrivals from Vera Cruz give
us Mexican papers, printed at the capital, from
one of whiclr(the Monitor of June Roth,) we ex-
Ciant the following—being a part of a long article
:on the sulject of the war:—
"The defenders of the nation are encouraged
with brilliant .

' war, look upon an equivocal policy as highly dan
• . - gerimaj and all overtures of peace a perilous Inca
sure to secure it: for this reason ore are opposed
to
.. any change in, the politics which may gire it a
pacific appearance.'
- ,And what is that position,-- which leads these
Mexican tyrants to expect that they will yet secure,
a triumph ? There is no foundation upon which
they can build a hope, but that based span the ail-!
tielputed success of the Federal pasty. They well
know that the principal orators of that patty 'h ScH
-;•,' exerted all their eloquence to try to in-Ike

. .
who have thus opposed the will of the majority,;
would, if they had the power, act in direct viola.
lion of the popular will. But they are mistaken
in the influence exerted by these Federal traitors.
They know not the low estimation is os hich they
are held by the people at large. They know that
they belong to a great party, which has partially
• succeded, at times, in obtaining the control of our
government. But they do nut teem to be aware.
that those men can lead but few of the minds of
our countrymen on this measure, however pop
ukt• may be their views ur ome other points.
We have charged the Federal party with being
eiders !and abetors of Alexis° in this war. We doI
so,because many of their utast cherished leaders
• have publicly tittered sentiments, which, had th'el''
enemy been contending with us on our own soil,
- would have deservedly brought their necks to the
halter; and for the- utterance of such sentiments
they have passed unrebuked by the press of their
party—they are still sustained and cherished by
-them. Btit'While we thus chargi the party as a

In other words, says the N. V. correspondent of
the Washington Union, the commerce of this port
has gained the enormous;increase of nearly WO
per'c'ent. Is not this one' fact more than an an
swer to columns of partisan twaddle about ruin,
the British tariff, &c.? And ‘‘by should not such
be the effect of our new policy 1 The rule that
holds good between man and inah, is equally so
between nations. :Naturally, the more goods we
take from our neighbor, themore he takes !roam us
in return. It is the law of trade, as well as 01 na.
lure, that we should deal the [oast with our best
customers.
Another better.
The Federalists are deteimined that Gen..TA
Lug shall tell them something ; and the more he
tells them, the worse they like it. The Troy (N.
Y.) Daily Pi.st contains a letter from him to a
gentleman of Lansingburg: in' that state, which
breathes the same spirit of that written to the edi
tor of the Cincinnati Signal; excepting .that he
goes alittle further; and recognizes their•move

" Previous and subsequent to my
leaving Ohio as a volunteer for Mexico, I have
been able to see the treacherous course pursued:by
the Whigs and abolitionists of Ohio on the war
question. AS there are a g reat many letters corn
ing to our regiment, and having a great anxiety,
as well as others, to see and hear the news from
home, I have bad, by this means, an excellent op
portunity of finding ant the position taken by dif

flagrant and treasonable that 1 have yet beheld:"

letter of the 22d January, and was glad to learn
that you were well ; sorry to hear that yins were i.n•
gaged in so bad a, cause, as that of arraying your
self in a battle against mu/pi:ding Mexico. What
has she donelhat America must send her united
forces to figragainst her? Is not America the
aggressor? rs , Did Mexico ever do anything' of
which America las a right to complain, or injus
tice of which she need to complain ? If we listen
to President Polk's address, and believe his doc
trine, we may then believe' that Mexico has been;
the aggressor; but do we, or ought we, to belie% el
all he tells us is right? Clearly not. And you
may ask, why ? The reason isidatn. Is he nut a
slime/wider, a man thief, axd male' plundercand
should we be ruled by such a despot as he? If I
were in Meiico, and were to tight at all, I SHOULD
FIGHT FOR THE MEXICANS, because they
have-God and truth on /Asir side—if God takes any
part in war at all, for a just God could never take
part or prosper a nation in war, whose hands and
hehrts are so deeply imbuded in the blood of their
fellow men. But I have little fears that ever Am
erica will conquer Mexico, as lung as she remains
as firm against her foe as she now does. She is , de
[ermined not to be conquered by America as long
as she can raise a man to resist her; and Mexico is
by no means a weak nation. Paredes has said,

"The above letter is copied verbatim from tht:
original, which was received bi a young man in
our company. This is but one ianiong the thou
sands receired of the s,irne kind,; by the soldiers.—
It appears that;.it , is a part of the policy of the
tories at borne to write such letters ; to discourage
our soldiers, and give 'aid and comfort• to the ene
my. But such let:ers are far from having the de-,
sired effect; on the contrary, they are properly ap
preciated, and Cause many an indignant epithet to
be applied to their authors. I can assure you that
there is nothing that will promote the cause of de , '
rimer:icy so much, as this suicidal course' of the
whigs and abolitionists. Many a letter of the
kind that I know of, has been mailed i&Mexico.,
and hurled back to them with scorn. It is anus
ing to hear the soldiers making their declarations
what they will do when they get home, if any of
these tortes-speak to them, verbally the way they
did when they wrutc letters to them in Mexico.
"1 am informed by the young man that received
the above letter that the author is a wealthy and

"There is no news of importance here. As our
time is nearly expired, there is considerable talk
about staying during the war. A great many of

Through the Detroit and Cleveland papers, we
have receised lull accounts of the proceedings of
this body to the 7th instant. The Lion Et,-

and sixteen Vice Presidents and ten Secretaries
were appointed. Among the Secretaries, we per
ceive the name of A. 13. Chambers. editor of the
St. Louis Republican, a violent Federal paper,—
being thely editor appointed, out of upwards of
twenty of both parties who are announced as being
present. 31r. Wright, of •the Cincinnati Gazette.
and Mr. Gray, of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, were
appointed members of the Committee to draft
resolutions. We also notice the name of Mr. Big

mittee. Letters were read from Messrs. T. hl.
Benton, Wright, Clay, Van Buren, Cass, and others,
iu relation to the objects of the Convention, stating
reasons for their absence, &c. We will'advise our
readers of whatever matters of importance may
be suggested, growing outrof this Convention.
The Detroit Free Press, of the 9th inst., gives
the following letter from Gem Taylor, which would
seem to be more of a dim her than any other which
we have seen. While the couiitry is involved in
war, and while his duty galls him to take part in
the operations against the enemy, - lien. Taylor
would not be willing to accept a nomination for
the Presidency. We - thins. that this letter will
surely satisfy the Feferal cliques—especially as

Mn. CLAY.—Respecting the recent act of Mr.
Clay, in attaching himself to the Protestant Epis
copal. Church, a writer in the Episcopal Recorder
authentically states that " he was baptized, in the
little parlor at Ashland, on Tuesday afternoon the
22d June, together with one of his daughters-in
law, (the other being already a memberpC the
church) and her four children, by the Rev. Edward
F. Berkley, Rector of Christ Church, ..Lexington.
The baptism was administered privately, or the
reason, that the 'congregation of Christ Church, are
replacing their old church, with a new edifice, now
in rapid progress of erection, and are not suitably
situated for the most solemn and decent adminis
tration of this rite in public."'
