This letter from Puebla further states
tat. Mr. 'Trish, who had been endeavoring
* a .mountli previously to open a negotia
tion, with the Mexican government, had
abandoned all hope of success—at least for
the present. Mr. Buchanan's. letter. had
litilehetl Santa Anna, through the 'courts,
Gus .offices of Mr. Banklicad, and, as we
have seen it repeatedly stated in the papers,j
was referred by Santa Anita to the Con-
gress--a session of this body being called
fur that purpose. After many delays, and
much apparent unwillingness to meet, the
Congress assembled with a quorum 01.74
members, on the 13th of July. It imme,.
cliately took the subject into consideration,.
Riad, as. we have seen it stated, adopted
report and resolutions to the following•cf
feet, viz: that it belonged to the executive,'
onderthe constitution, to receive all inisti
istercend other public agents, and to make
treaties of peace, alliances, ke.; thet the
limetinne of Congress were limited to. the
approving or disapproving of these treat./

. rhp letter states that there-hall beep no
meeting since, most of the members has. , j
ing run, off. It goes on to state.that, upon •
the receipt of this' report and these resole
tions, Santa Anna issued a proclamation,
stating that Congress, on the 211 M-Of 4Prif
last,. had passed a decree deelering that any.
Mexican in authority, who should listen to
any proposition for peace front the enemy,
should be deemed a traitor.

it was due to thecharacter of the Mexicali

GEN. TAYLOR'S LETTER TO MR. DE-
Camp Near Monterey,
Naito, Acne 9, 1847. S
DEAR SIR : Your letter of the 15th ult.
from Clinton, La., has just reached owl*
which you are pleased to say: “The signs of
of the times in relation .to the ner,tPresklear
c y , and the prominent position of youroanie
•
tin connexion with it, is: a sufficient eiCusis
for this letter ;" that ..it is a happy fiiitterel
; in our Government that official huietkons- I
ries under it, from the lowest bitheltighest
station, are not beyond the reach and,; Oile
tial supervision of the humblest citizen,
and that it is a right in every freenta t ti'
possess himself of the political prinetplea
and opinions of those into'rhose hands the
administration of the Government may 'be
placed," kr. ; (in all of which I Billy
incide with you in opinion;), 814 .aaking
my views on several subjects: lire!. as
to the justice
.and necessity of this War
with Mexico,
.on our part; second, es to
the necessity of a Natioosl flank and the
power of Congress for creating en
stitution; third, as tOthe effect* of a,high
Protective Tariff and the right olCongress
under the (70fiehtution,, to create such a
systeni of revenUe.'"'' " •
As regards the first interrogatory, my du- 1
ties, and the pesition I occupy, I de not'
conaiderr it would lie Prepirin tk : give
any opinion on theireine.- As a eitinsen,
and pricularly" a soldier, it is sufficient
for me to know diet our country is at war
with a foreign nation, to do all in my, pow
er to bring it to 'i speedy, and htmorsble
ferniinauon, by. the mos‘olgorous and en
ergetic operations, withoutlnnuiriug about
its jail - ace - or any }ping die connected with
it; believing, as T-ppli
ey to be_ at peace with'all the world, as long,
as it can be done' without endangering
the &Mei. and'intergieht of the country.
As regards the seeond and third inquiries
I am, not prepared, to answer them. I
could only_tio so slier investigating those
inibjects, which I cannot now do, my wkole
time being fully occupied in attending to
my proper official, dunes, which must not
he neglected under any circumsuincea.—
And I mast say to you, in substance, what
I have said to others in regard to similar
matte's,: :that' I sin no, Near
forty years of my life have been . paesed in
the public service—in the army; most of
which the field, the camp, on our Vein
ern frontier; or in the Indian country ; and
for neatly the_ two lust, in this eisT
exas„ j
dining which oriel have not passel ono l
night under the ritorof a how e.
As regards heing a candidate for the
Presidency at the'eoming election, I have
no aipliations in that way, and regret the
subject has been agitated at this early day,
and that. it had not ; been deferred until
the cloie of this war,_of_until the end of the
next 'session of Congress, especfally if I
inn' to be mixed up, with it, as it is possible
it may lead to the injury 01 the public ser
vice in this quartenby my operations being
embarrassed, an well as to produce much
excitement in ihe countrurowing out of
the dilieudnioo.r anoritir, eau. o r thr
erettraspirants for that high office, which
might lime been very much allayed, if not
prevented, had the subject been deferred as
suggested. Besides, very many changes
may take place between now and 1848, so
much so as to make it desirable, fur the in
terest Of the country, that some other iridi
viduid Aunt myself, better qualified for the
situation, olibuld he selected; and could he
be 'elected, f would nut only , • acquiesce in
suchin arrangement but rejoice that the. R
epublic had one eitixen—and no doubt there
are thousands—more deserving than I ain.,
and better qualified in discharge the duties
of said office.
If !Juice been named by others, and con
sidered a candidate for the - Presidency, it
has been by
. litiagency of mine in the mat
ter;. and if the good people think 'my ser
rites important in - that station, and elect
me, 1 will be hohnd to serve them; and
all the Pledges stud esplanations I can , enter
itiqiind - hiiike;iti regards this ,♦r that poli
cy, is, lliat I will do so honistly and faith
fully to the heat of my,abilities, strictly in
compliance with the constituthin. Should
I ever, occupy the White house, ' it must
be by ihe spontaneous move of the people,
and :by' no act of mine, so that 1 coublgo
into, the office , untrammelled, and be. the
Chief Magistrate of the nation and not of
a' patty.' But should they; ,die` people,
change their' views between this and the
time of holding the election; and can their
votes for the Presidency for some one , else;
I will not cumpiniu.
With ,consideTaticili of respect, I remain
your obedient servant, ".

The ;Beaver; (Penn.); Argus, noticing the
`death of FREDERICK RAM ' who win 4kir
aro many years the Principal at Economy,
! states that he came to this country' in 1804,
and first organized an association at Par-.
i mony, Butler county. where the oeciiitmu
I nityb system, or union of labor andliroper 6
ty, was fairly tested. For some ten , years
the society continued to reside there; itithe
enjoyment of tranquility and prosperity;
; but to secure to his people a better earthly
I inheritance, the venerable Patriarch- led
them to the rich valley of the Wabash.
w here they remained until 1823,increasing
in numbers arta the trorld's goods, setting
I a goodly example of morality, of industry,
land probity, and aceomplishingall that was
expected in their association. For the
1 sake of health, however, they returned to
!Pentisylvtioia at the last period mentioned,
I and for twenty-odd years have resided at
! Economy, Beaver county, where they
have continued to prosper, with little - to dis
turb the quietude and happiness of their
i lives.
' The power heretofore exercised by Mr.
Rapp will in future be vested in two indi

COAL 111 mes FRANCE:—Accortling to
an official return ere tire 407 coal mines
noW worked in t ingdom. The extrac
tion of coal and e drawing of water is
performed by 51 achines, of which 391
are worked by it m, with a power of 19,-
606 horses. D ng the last year, this
branch of industry gave employment to 29,-
554 workmen. The produce of coal dur
ing the same period, was 37,827,395 met
rical quintals, (the met. quint. 221 k lbs.,)
being 901.999 more than in the preceding
year. The consumption of coal in France
is known to have increased more rapidly
than the supply during the last fifteen"
years; for during this period, inanufacto
ries,_priyate housett_and naval arsenals,
have used foreign coal to a considerable
extent. Belgium, G. Britain and certain
Rhenish provinces, have furnished 17,558,
850 metrical quintals. France during the
year exported to her colonies, and to the
various States of Eurow, 517,753 quintals.
'Tie total consumption in France during
the lust year, was 54,808,501 met. quint.
FRIGHTFUL Loss OF LIFE IN A BELGIAN
COAL MlNN.—Brussels; Ju1y4.6,-..-On the'
night 16th July, a deStructive Zile broke
out on the premises connected with the
Mariltaye. Coal Works, near Seraing. It o
riginated in the engine-room near the mouth
of the pit, and rapidly spread, catching in
its progress, and burning, the ladders and
ropes which served for descending into the
pit;antt - thus cutting off for the time all
means of escape for 161 work-men who
were at work therein. The first signal of
danger was the appearance of dense col
umns of smoke which came down the
mouth of the pit. Whe workmen immedi
ately rushed to the ladders, hut the fore
most, after ascending them a short distance,
.nd Cell dead to the
ground, or killed by the fulling of burning
materials front the top of the shaft. The
lire was, after great efforts, mastered, and
a descent into the pit made, when a most
frightful sight presented itself. The dead,
the dying, and the wounded, lay all scat
tered about the place. Forty-nine dead
bodies were taken out of the pit; and thir
ty-one alive, but most of them badly wound
ed. Search was being made fur the re
mainder.
We learn from the Medical Journal that
a physician in Georgia, in recently attempt
ing to prepare gun cotton from a receipt
sent him by a brother physician, was un
successful, and finind to his astonishment
that his cotton would neither .explode ncr
ignite, being anti-inflammable. On inves
tigating, to find out the cause, he found that
he had not used Oho right acid, muriatic
acid we suppose. lie repeated the-process
and the result was the same; so that he
has discovered a method of rendering cot
ton incombustible. lie say hat this cot
ton can be prepared with ling expense, as
he has tested the matter sufficiently to
know that it can be manufacturedinto cloth,

in the least injured, but capable of. biting

dens, Which were prefered by a series of interest
ing remarks. After some discussion, the Resolu
tions were unanimously adopted :
100 $80,333,332
Resolved, I. That we regard the use of
intoxicating liquors as a beverage, as one
of the most prolific sources of: crime and
'misery that has ever cursed the human
family ; and the Temperance Reformation
as one of the noblest enterprises of the age,
whose successful prosecution is moat inti
mately connected with our individual, so
cial and political prosperity.
. Resolved, 11. That the signal success
which has crowned the efforts of the friends
of this cause, wherever properly made,
presents ample encouragement for persever
ance, and justifies the belief, that though
the struggle may be a protracted one, and
the scales of victory may seem at times to
fluctuate, yet that ultimate triumph will re
ward the labors expended in this cause.
Resolved, 111. That the triumph of tem
perance can never he either complete or
permanent, unless the sale of intoxicating
liquors as a beverage is prohibited by law,
since experience has amply established
the fact that wherever the temptation to
drinking is held out either -in the stores,
the grog-shops, the taverns, or in the social
circle, there will always be found some too
weak to resist, from whose midst the ranks
of drunkards will he filled.
Resolved, IV. That we hold it to be the
indisputable right of the communi:y oftax
payers to suppress by law the traffic in
intoxicating liquors for any other than
medicinal and manufacturing purposes,
since that traffic causes at least four fifths
of Aug_ annual criminal and nine tenths of
our poor tax : and we believe it our duty
not only as christians hat even as members
of the social compact, to labor by any and
every lawful means, for the removal of au
evil, which has invoked hundreds of thou
sands of our felloW-eitizens in personal
degredation arid wretchedness. whilst it
has entailed an untold train of miseries on
the innocent families of the inebriates, and
consigned the guilty victims themselves to
the regions of endless despair.

habits as indispensable, and temperance
principles as a strong recommendation, in

"Assuming this letter (says the Bun) to be gen
uine, it is a fatal exptioure of the pretensions of all
those who have 'affected to 'support the neunixpar
Lion of (kn.. Taylor for the Presidency upon the
knowledge of his political sent:mints. The gal ,
taut old soldier declare, that he hu none-he io
unimpressed with regard to the main questions of
modem governmental economy, and will he unable
to investigate them before be is relieved from the
duties of the camp And field. He rejects with
acorn, any idor of political association or resporipi
bility, as an effect of party organization and effort ;
and will consent to be the candidate of the people,
only upon condition that be shall be elected free
from all pledges and promise*, and, we infer, en
tirely uncommitted upon all subjects of national
policy. That is to say, as we understand him,
that be will refuse to make any declaration of his
ppinions surkputposes with regent to any special
questionhem tbepeople: Hera use, wen, it other
wirre, be, would immediately become identified
with party o f sections of party. •Literally,then,
Gen. Taylor throws himself exclusively upon the
popular enthusiasm excited by his military achieve
ments, requiring an unintelligent vote upon •ll
other subjects. This, in tiff:et, annuls the nomi
nation, and is probably the object whichlhe vete
ran had in view.
'Ttriffiripdtei - it possible that any great portion of
the people would consent to give their votes to ■
candidate for the preuidentml office under these
circumstances, we must first believe that they have
ceased to value those privileges which constitute
their chief distinction from any other nation. He
reditary monarchy, in the abstract, exacta no
more than this from the subject ; and if we are
prepared to sacrifice an intelligent suffrage at the,
shrine of military renown, it will be of no virtue
in ourselves that we shall escape theconsequenees
of an obsolete despotism. We do not refer such
a purpose to Gen. Taylor, because we do not be
lieve him capable of au arbitrary and-irresponai-.
hle assumption ofrovver.p;yth! , fault : v.lol be
in our blind fatuity still ; the merit ezeclusively
in his moderation.
But (ion. 'Taylor affects no concealment of his
want of informatien on the leading subjects of the
political world ; end sorely it' will not be contend
ed that he who has yet to study and investigate,
through all the intricate relations of-cause and ef•
feet, the momentous questions at practical issue
before the nation, is a suitable man, or can.possi
-bly be qualified in at few shortnionths, for:the-re
sPnsible duties of that distinguished offlee. In
deed, we hold it to be impossible for (ion.. Taylor
to discharge the duties of the Presidency lb, the
beat welfare of the nation, upon his independent
judgment, if he ions uninformed-on public affairs
he leaves us to infer.
With rekrenoe to the letter itself, non specimen
of composition, we apprehend his friends must be
rather perplexed. Were it not for the sentiments
contained in it, we should pmlionnee it unhesita
tingly, a ; palpable forgery. In contract with the
neatiteas'ef his official despatches, it is slovenly in
the extreme ; and the excuse contained in the
pootocript by no means reliev es he absurdities--
As the product,on of a frank, honest, plain old,
soldier, it is ebiTieteristic ; but in any other point
of view, the inaccuracies and inelegancies of eon
str.ietion, and the involution of sentences are un
pardoolalilc. We speak unreservedly upon a sub
jeet of so much important* as that which now SI.
fates to the distinguished hero of the Mexican cam
paign, and fuel that no apology can be required at
our hands for so doing, prompt as we have always
been to render the meed of honor and praise he
has won from the cool deliberation and stern jus
tice, as well as ardent enthusiasm of the American
heart."
FRAUDS ON THE PUBLIC WORKS.—
. Wo have berme advettod, says the Pittsburg Ga
zette, to the self-evident fact, that frauds to an e
normous extent have berm heretofore committed on
the public works by which the State was defraud
ed to the amount of $300,000, probably, last year.
The following statement of the new Collector at
Pittsburg, presents convincing and unquestionable
evidanor of thia in-', which we shall advert to
inure particularly in our next. We give it now,
with the request that the people look to it, and
see what has already been done by a Whig Ties-
surer and Whig Canal Commiasioner in the way
of Reform.

in question. In Mr entiftta celebrated speech in

after describing thelitexiemillitates and towns on
the left bank of the Rio Grande, that Senator re
marked :
"These, In addition to the old Texas; these parts
of four States—these towns and villages—these
people and territory—these, 11044 and bents—
this sure of the Republic of Mexico, two thousand
miles long,. NM some hundred broad—all this our
President has cut off from its mother empire, and
prevents to us, and declares it ours till the Senate
rejects it l He calls it Texas! .and the cutting off
le calls re-annexation! Hurnbolt calls it New

but to rr-take a certain city; and in that re-laid
the virtue which waved the act from the character
of spoliation and robbery. Witt It be equally po

. l'he ism e Senator offenxt a Resolution declaring:
~'That the incorporation of the left bank of the
Rio del Nolte (Rio Grande) into the .Arnoricim
Union, by virtue of a treaty with Texas, compre
hending, as the said incorporathia would do, a part
of the Mexican departments of plew Mexico, Chi
huahua, Choshuila. and Tamaulipaa, WOULD
BE AN ACT OF DIRECT AGGRESSION
ON MEXICO, for tre consequent:* of tchich the
Uniied States would Siena responsible.'
On the 21th of February last, Mr. C CHOI' Y
held the following solemn language in his place
in the Sainte:
"Every Senator knew that he WAS OPPO
SED TO THE WAR; hut "no one - ktnitv the
depth of that opposition but himself. In one short
hour after the act of recognition of The war passed,
ho had mid to his friends that o deed had been
done from which the country would acutely re
cover. A curtain had been dro?pod between him
and the future, and for the first time in his lifit the
future was abut out from his view."
Mr. Rao nson, the editor of the ~ Q uarterly
Review, and lately associate editor of the Demo.
cratic Review, in an article on the origin of the
war, holds the following language : ,
"By declaring that the war already existed, and
by the act of Mexico herself, the Prolideut refire',
ed Congress of the reeponaibility of the wit, by
throwing it on Mexico. But since he cannot fast
