Went forth, like God beholding busewn works In immediate connection with the necessity for
a resort to war, is presented the sacrifice of human
life, incident to its existence; and this must be, to
all possessed of truly benevolent feelings, the most
dreadful contemplation connected with it. Some
are disposed to present the immoralities attendant
upon war, as the most revolting part of the spec
tacle; but this is a short-sighted and mistaken
philanthropy. Masses of men, who have partaken
of or witnessed the refined enjoyments of cisilized
life, can scarcely be sunken so low in vice and
degradation, as to be beyond the reach of a pure
and virtuous influence; and though war but too
generally has associated with it vice and immo
rality,—it has not always resulted in the degrada
tion of a'People. While countries engaged in
war, may bot too commonly be compared with a
black and miry fen, over which rests a foul and
death-dealing atmosphere ; their restoration to a
peaceful state, may, not unfrequently, be likened
to the verdant and smiling plain, teeming with
beauty, and blessedness, and luxury, beneath the ge•
niel and invigorating influence:sof an unclouded sky.
And, although-we truly represent War as attend.
ed by Desolation, and Vice, and Horror; yet, while
man continues to be surrounded by the influences
which now surround, and have ever heretofore
surrounded him, war is inevitable; and those only
are to be accounted most wise, who shall direct
their efforts to a mitigation of the causes for terror
which have been attendant upon it 1 and who shall
direct this formidable engine alone to the end of !
accomplishing a good for their fellow men, other
wise unattainable. Under a government like ours,.
we cannot conceive that there is any danger of a
resort to war, unless for the attainment of ends
otherwise deemed unattainable; and which the
People are hound, both in justice to themselves and'
their fellow men, to secure. These ends must ever
be such as are esteemed vital to the freedom of
nations, and the enduring happiness of mankind ;

vitally affecting the existence of our institutions,
and the rights of our countrymen; and, disguise
the truth as they may, none of the pretended
votaries of Peace on any terms, in our country,
can deny, that our countrymen .have endured
wrongs in number, and for a series of years, beyond
those of any other people, before they have even
alluded to war, as a means by which to redress the
wrongs inflicted upon them. Such, we think, will
ever be the case with us, as a people; and this very
spirit of forbearance, will go far to accomplish tha

Mi. Bancroft, the American Minister in London,
returned from a short tour on the continent, wi:h
Mrs. Bancroft, September 2S. On the 30th, he was
present by invitation of the Lord Mayor, at the
inauguration dinner of the new Sheriffs. at which
a number of the Judges and other distinguished
personages were present. in the course of the
compliments paid to the distinguished guests, Mr.
Shei ff Cahill proposed the following :
He said that they had a great many gentlemen
from different parts to visit them there that evening.
and they had also among them the representative
of the United States of America. (Cheers.) He
knew that they would be delighted to drink The
health of Mr. Bancroft, the American Minister."
The toast having been duly homed,
Mr. Bancroft rose and returned thanks, He
said Never since I have been in England have
I felt my,self a stranger here, and the cordial man
, ner in which you have welcomed the allusion to
my country proves, that here, in this metropolis,
the heart of the country, the ancient affection for
the United States is not extinguished (Applause.)
Having on my right the newly elected Sheriff, the
member fur Andover, reminds me of my own
home, for that is the name of one of the beautiful
villages of my country ; and with respect to the
member for Boston, lam myself of Boston. (Ap
plause.) 1 have not seen the Boston in Lincoln
, shire, but it must be beautiful indeed if it can
eclipse our New England Boston. When I see
the honorable gentleman (Sir J. Duke) surrounded
with circumstances which prove he enjoys your
confidence. I cannot but whisper in my heart that
perhaps a Boston man is destined yet to be Lord
Mayor of London. (Cheers.) When I visit the
city of London a crowd of recollections come
about me. I saunter about yuurstreels and search
for the haunts of Shakspeare, the tomb of your
Milton, the cradle of Pope, and the streets in which
Johnson lived. (Hear, hear) lon a former occa
lion had asked your sheriffs to allow me to be
present during the exercise of one of the most
important privileges intrusted to the inhabitants of
the metropolis, and through their kindness I was I
permitted to see the Prime Minister of this con
stitutional country come down to the city.of Lon
don, and ask its citizens to deign to give him per-'
mission to continue still in the halls of legislation,
to strive to promote their welfare. (Hear, hear.)
The honorable gentleman, after adverting to many I
other topics connected with the _city of London,
observed, that he knew nothing more wonderful in
the world than the wealth in the docks and ware. I
houses of the metropolis. He thought it an unwise
observation of the poet, that God made the
country, and man made the town,' for he thought
that the intellect displayed in the power and re
sources of such a metropolis as London was far
more striking than that Which was manifested
even by the best cultivated but inanimate nature in
the country, and he -mentioned as a remarkable
proof of the observation he had just - made, that
two lines signed with the name of an honest Eng
lish merchant or banker, in whom confidence was
reposed, could transfer millions of property at the
antipodes. (Cheers.)

The present War, and War in general.
(CONCLUDED.)
The assertion that the war with Mexico is an
unneressary war, is not only an admission that
war may be necessary, but also assumes that
something was left undone by which the ,res
ent war might have been avoided. We have al
laded to those national acts that ore deemed
sufficient causes for war, and all of which had
been perpetrated by Mexico. She had gone
beyond these, and declared war against us, and had
shed the blood of our citizens, upou soil claimed by
a power which had been as independent as herself.
Under this state of things, there was but me course
left to us, by which war could be avoided—the
withdrawal of our troops (not from the hanks of
the Rio Grande, to the Neuces, but) from within
the,confines of Texas; leaving the people of that
State, now an integral portion of the Union,—to
combat with the power of Mexico, until she, in
her gteat condescension, might choose no longer to
continue warring against them. That this is the
only course which our government could have pur
sued, in order to avoid a war with Mexico, is sure
ly evident to the most limited capacity. Could the
Executive of our country hive pursued that course?
Could he, in view of his oath to support the Con
stitution, (which recognizes him as commander
in-chief of the army and navy of the United States,
and who is expressly required to make use of
these arms of our national defence to quell insur
rection and repel invasion,) have dared to permit
the authorities of Mexico to encroach upon soil,
claimed ID be our own; our claim to which Mexico
had refused to examine; without committing perju
ry of the blackest kind, and untnitigated treason?
No sane man, who shall examine that instrument ,
will for a moment imagine that he could have done
so. The necessity for the war, then, in our view
of the case, resolved itself into the question.
whether the exercise of our rights as a nation of
freemen, must be entirely suspended, in relation to
the defence of the State of Texas; the constitution
set at defiance; the chief magistrate become a
perjured traitor; and the citizens of Texas be left
to the tender mercies of Mexican bandits; or !be I
invaders of our rights should be punished in the!
manner usual among nations.

out nature, as well as - in Ilis , Written word, clearly
point to war as one of the means by which rights
are to be-asser:ed, and wrongs- redressed, by na
tions -,:and we cannot conceive of- anf,act,
.per
formed in aecordance:with. _
thoselaws,--which can
be properly teemed onholy.:, The ; motive which
prompts' to the perrorthanee'.afran". - acttan is the
only.. just 'Means by:Which to determine Its char
acter ; and the avowed motive of an actor is always
to be viewed as the true one; unless his conduct, in
the performance of --that attion, leaves us no ro9m
to doubt that t his avowed motive was not the true
one. The reasons which prompted our chief
magistrate to take those steps which are declared
by some to have led to this war, were of them
selves good and sufficient ones, to exonerate him
from all censure before the country, and the world ;
and these reasons were affirmed, by an almost
unanimous vote of the Representatives of the
People and of the States, to be just and proper
ones. The whole history of the Jews, goes to show
that they were required, in the Providences of God,
to act in a similar mariner, on divers occasions ;
and we are taught to look upon them as the Peo
ple of God's peculiar care. Through them we
have derived all that we now know, of the most
valuable truths presented to man ; and we are ne
cessarily compelled to look upon their efforts as a
people as according, in the main, during a great
part of their history, with the laws given by God
for the government of our race_
So long as the same circumstances continuelo
transpire, which led the Jews to assert their
rights by a resort to war; so long as similar
circumstances shall require a similar resort for
the redress of wrongs,—while nations are actuated
by no other than just motives in engaging in
deadly conflict, we are not at liberty to denounce
as unholy, that which has been sanctioned by Deity
himself. That war, under various circumstances,
has been sanctioned by the Creator, it were worse
than folly to deny; and that it will be sanctioned
by Him, (if the motives which lead to the act tic
cord with His laws,) cannot be denied; without a
denial of the whole foundation upon which is
based our holy religion, and all thlit we esteem
valuable in law or iii government. All that has /
been, will yet continue to be; all that has been I
sanctioned by Him, will continue to receive His
sanction, until, in His providence, that peaceful
time shall arrive, when "the lion and the lamb
shall lie down together, and a little child shall
lead them ;" when "there shall be none to hurt in
all my holy temple, saith the Lint," when ".the
ransomed of the Lord shall return, and come to
Zion, with songs and everlasting joy "
