To the Editor of the Pittsburgh Gazette.
I Thoughts for the People.
The war existing between this country and
Mexico, i« growing more unpopular from day to
Jay, and J. K. Polk, tbe author of all our troubles,
is beginning to meet with auch rejjgkea as bis
ratbncas deserves. We have been oppoaedlo hia
course of policy ever since be took possession of
the Presidential Chair, and we can see nothing in
the msti, a* for as we have studied him, that can
ever induce os to swerve an lota from our former
opitiioni He haa been long enough in power te
abow some symptoms ofgoodneaas, if be hu any
exiatingtin hta breast; but bis reckless thirst for
territory! in disobedience to all by-gone examples,
xhows blw dangerous it is to exatl a demagogue
overia genuine patriot—bow luting iho evils in
curred bj Irifliog with men who can lay no claims
to principle. «
iliit rmverlbelest, notwithstanding there is d
poriiun of the American Press that does honor to
this )ovrr of blood :and carnage, lie is praised
for doing deeds Ihiit any bra*o could do—he hr
pufTed for waging an unholy war against the poor
detailed Mexicans, and for bringing this country
intoia debt that will bang upon it) like an incu
bus for many a day. Had it been a Whig Presi
dent who acted tbu*. the. Whig pres* would have
condemned him in tones of hatred that would
have made him'pause and tremble. But tbe
Whig pn*« is tbe fojtbfal guardian of the inters
eats of ibis great republic. It does not stick to
tbe empty title of party tbioogh thick and thin—
it does not sit calmly b£ when the liberty of the
people is in danger and aing out, “All if Well."
No indeed. When John Tyler proved recreant
to the principles he profoued to admire, it was tbe
first to warn tbe peopfotbat ■ Traitor sat in pow
er ready to feed apon’;thcir rights if they did not
watch him with an eagle eye. It bad that inde
pendence that alone cap *a»e a nation in tbe boor
of danger. But the Democratic Preu lacks this
in every shape and form- It makes great preten
tions to guard tbe interests of the poople, hut it
only guards the interests of the party. If the
party goes wrong it follows like a penny dog, and
then tells the “dear populace” that all will be fair
and aquaro directly. The “dear popalsee” never
think much about politics, and consequently Jtia
not hard to deceive. .
We have an example of this in oar dealings
with' Mexico. How loud did the Democrats about
when they beard of General Taylor'a first battle
with these swarthy children of tbe Booth. Two
more toch brilliant engagements, they told us,
’'would settle thorn completely, and then we eould
have them to act u we pleased, and do u wc say.
They did not know b<»w strong (he love of Cjao
try prevailed in the Mexican braast—they K»t)
their eyes on the savage portion of them, and they
enli.ely forgot that there were any civilized folk*
among them. This war bu been in progress a
year sod more, and it may be in progress during
all this summer. How does this happen, if tbe
Mexicans are to bo set down as savages! W«
hope when the city of Mexico falls into our bands
that a peace will be declared. We have bad
enough fighting to make tbe heart sick. The pa

Tax following interesting article epon the Rail

ing to observe, tlxat in one respect at least, oar
Baropemo frlends are willing to acknowledge our
superiorjiy. and that i«. to use the language of ihe
Review, "for that irrepressible spirit of enterprise
which so strongly characterises the American
People.”
« Rail Road* In (he United State*.
The total length of-railway now actoally con
structed, and io operation in the United State*,
amounts to about 4500 miles; of which 500 miles
consist of abort lines, connected with coal work*
and priratfe establishments; —leaving abool 4tHU)
miles of swift steam conveyance, by railway, for
passengers and merchandixs. Beside* this, there
are about 10,000 miles projected, the construction
of mbit of which has been suspended, since the
financial and monetary revulsions which took
place soma years since. Of the railway* comple
ted, and in operation, the chief part are in the At
lantic States. A kwabort lines,
been 1 constructed in the south and west. I*bus
there are seven railways in Alabama, four in Flo
rid*, ten in I,cu*ian«, and five in Mississippi.
Pennsylvania, New York, and the Sutei of
New England, are the great theatres of American
railway enterprise. The State of Pennsylvania
is intersected by nearly a thousand mites uf rail
way; and so *qual length is in operation or pro
ems of conatruclioo, in the Stale of New York.
The new Eogland States are in every direction
intersected by railways. Boston is connected to
ward* the west with, the Hudson at Albany, by a
continuous lir.e. It is connected, toward* the
south./i*ith Long Island Sound, by lines to Pro
vidence sod Stoningtoo, and to Worcester and
New London. The communication is canted on
from these poiols to New York, both by railway'
oyer I«ong Island, and by steamboat* on the
Sound and the East-River.
- From the Hudson, then* is an unbroken line of
railway communication to the great northern lakes.
By there and the Illinois river, the communication
is continued by steamboat* nearly to the banks
of the Upper- Mississippi, where it is con
tinued for tome thousand miles westward by
the Missouri towards the Reeky Mountains; and
southward by the Cower Mississippi to New
Orleans and the Gulf of Mexico.
Another artery of railway communication pro
ceeds from New York southward*—traversing
the States of New Jersey, Pennsylvania. Dels*
ware, Maryland, Virginia. North and Sooth Car*
olini—-and turning westward through Georgia,
terminates near the bouk* of the Alatama river.
There, the line is continued by steamboats to the
mouth of that river; and thence to Lake Pont
ehartrsin, where it meet* a line of railway which
Urmiostes finally at New Orleans. The entire
territory uf tho Union is thus enclosed in an un
interrupted circle of steam communication.
Nor are great tt**er«o arteries wanting to com
plete the interfusion ol the commerce of the coun
try. From the artery- running north and
just rpentioned, there issurs a lateral branch at
Baltimore, ptoeecding westward toward* the Al
leghany range. At present this is continued on
ly 'a* far a* Cumberland —st the foot of the
ridge, which is at that point crossed by an ex
cellent Macadamized rosJ, on which stage coach
es work at a speed equal to the best English
coach travelling.
It is however, intended to supercede this road,
by a continuation cf the railway to Wheeling and
Pittsburgh on tbe Ohio. Thence the communi
cation'.is carried on by steamboats on that river, to
tbe point where iu waters are received by tbs Mis
sissippi.
We have here traced the great main arteries of
tbe intrrnat commerce of tho United Stats* but
these only. From these at eviry point diverge
innumerable ramifications, either by tiibutary nav
igable rivers, by branch railways or by common
roads.
There are also isolated instances of the irrepres
sible spirit of enterprise, which so strongly char
acterizes this people, to be found in railways con
structed and in operation, where the highest refine
ment of loeomotion would be the last thing the
wanderer of the wilds would expect to meet. In
the backwoods of Mitsicsippi, traversing native for
eats, wherej tijl within a few years, human foot
never trod, through solitudes, the silence of which
was never disturbed even by the red man, we are
now transported by railways. The impression
prodaeed on tire traveller, es he is whirled through
these wilds, sees the frightcoed deer
less acceptable an that account. It may be had

States Government to eeixe the Custom Jfou»es of
Mexico, and to allow goods to be imported on the
payment of duties to be fixed by it. Your extem
porary thinks that if carried into execution, thia
design may be Injuriou# to the interest* ofFremh
merchants trading in Mexico, and it asks what
willbe done.if on tbe cooclosionoflhe war, Mex
ico should refuse to acknowledge the right of the
United States to receive its custom duties, and
should seize French vessels and goods to indem*
nify itself for any lose it may bave saittinodl—
The Contlitulionnel calls upon the Government
to take the matter into consideration, and to make
such diplomatic representations to the United

to each bill, which will increase the coat to only
about $3 Peruvian. According to experiments,
the crop will be increased ten to twenty boaheU
