PMS . M7RGH, WEDNESDAY, MAY 20,:148
The Gazette and. Mexico,
"The'ec4tor of the Gazette - finding himself in :a
"tight place' has resorted•to low personal-abuse.
Before proceeding to remark mote fully upon the
'> vile article in his paper of Tuesday', we will'notice
•••s few of his assertions, for he has presented neither
Petnor - argument. The editor wishes to mike it
e t iTear that new Mexico and its towns, among the
F.number, Santa Fe, is included in the Tenitory- Le
' pond the'Nueees claimed by the United States.—
This the eetitor
,enuet know is false. Texas - never
ercisetl jurisdiction over new Mexieo . —she 'never
• claimed it as within her territory—the American
.goyernmenthas•never attempted to exercise juris
: diction over it, and does not now claim it es•witli
- in-ae"state of Texas, yet the_ editor of the Ga-.
rizittei.l3 order‘to get up a fal.se issue is endeavor
ing to create the impression that :our government
hae actually taken posbession of the territory-1
claiining it to be part of the state of Textts.—,
Now, We say without km- of contradiction that the
editor of the Gazette cannot point to a single act
which will go to - prove that our government have
claimed the right to exercise jurisdiction overNe*
"Mexico. An;editor who would 'thus attempt by
- base falsehood to injure the reputation. of his oun
country, to oily her honor and integrity,` and at-
tact to her the character of a ~ l awless piarauder;"
takes rather a strange way of showing his national
fidelity
The caitor. says :
'"The country, against its wishe . ..s.---against its in
,
- terests---uitneesarily-,-has been-plunged into a
war--that, whatever we may think of it, will as
- aurally' be held by all Christendom as an
unjust war of aggression. -Rad for what hus thi
President- done thixl Can the Post tell nsl"
• The Post can tell the editor. of the Gazette that
•
nearly the whole whin forte in both branches of Con
.
- gres4, declared by - a soleinn vole, that
uTHE RECENT ACTS OF MEXICO HAVE
CAUSED A STATE 01? WAR TO EXIST BE
TWEEN TEE GOVERNMENT OF MEXICO
AND THE GOVERNMENT OF THE - UNITED
STATES.' . •
We put the declaration In g,laring, capitals; so
that the prejudiced creature of the Gazette can see
'..how flatly he is contradicted, by his olvu'political
friends in con g ress. We leave the editor to settle
y tie question of veracity with the Whig members
'of Congress .at his leisure.
The editor attempts to be severe upon us. He
'says:
‘, 4 .4ut-lie does knomi that an imputation against.
our patriotism is a foul slander, though his obtuse
nest may prevent him from perceiving the depth
of infamy tolvhich the utterance of it consigns him
with all high_minded men."
Reader, don't laugh; it is' really an •accurate
.quotation froth the Gazette of Tuesday morning.
'But few "high minded - then, we think, in this corn
thunity, will take the trouble to inquire whether
theeditor of the Post has east an "imputation up-
Mir the patriotism" of the editor of the Gazette.—
If the editor by "high minded men" means the
‘+fifteen. whigs," u'e can al , snre . him he is 'mistaken;
Aorne of them, we have reason • to believe, repent
the part they took in that "certain transaction, -
andyi - e,O.re assured will take no interest in the guar
rel_of the - editor: ' ,
1 The 'editor of the Gani..tte in his disputes with
his ilitorial - brethren, never Lila to assume, for,
himself a vast superiority in point of intelligence
and "intellect." If the editor is really the intelter- !
turd giant and :tore Iwii4e of knowledge, which he
chinas to be, it is rather remarkable that a knowl
edge of the important fact has been confined to
alone; we never have heard aribeintation o f
it from any other source—nofeyen from the ‘‘high
minded men.' of whom he speaks in his article of
Tuesday.
The Washington Union 'of the 13th inst. says.
Snore oraton3 (and especially the *hig press
es) are laboring
. to damp the ardor of our gallant
volunteeis by various humbugs, and, among the
fiightful pictures of the health of the thea
tre of military oppetfations. They declare that we
jure fighting against =9mnipotence - itself, who will
visitits vengenee upon the heads of our troops in
varilius forms--even the yellow fever in all its in
'tensity. These fiction are chimeras, intended for
the most disgusting party purposes. We are in
- formed by `an intelligent physician, who was a na
tiNe of this city, but who resided for seveml years
to the west - of the Rio Grande, who married a
Mexicanlady, who was an United States consul,
practised physic several years in the vicinity of
Matatnoras, and is intimately acquainted with the
elimate,as well as the habits of the Mexicans, that
although ''at a certain season of the year - it is un
healthy at Matamoros and on the immediate bor
ders of the river, yet that several miles from it the
ague and fever is unknown. The climate for sev
eral miles beyond, away ; off to the weit, is remark--
ably - healthy, and that no . such humbugs ought to
:prevent the troops of the Unitel States from visit

- Mxxreax I.o.l.N.—The New York Herald of
Wednesday says: “the Mexican government has
seat an agent to London to negotiate a loan of two
Millions of dollars. One i of the firm of Manning &
. Mclntosh, of Veia Cruz, 'bankers, passed- through
this pity a few days since, on his way to England
via Boston, for that purpose. While at Washington
hP hid an interview with Mr. Pakenham, who was
'formerly British minister at Mexico, and, from
what we can learn, there is no doubt that-the loan
will be ohtained. This, with the excitement among
the Mexicans a war will create,cannot but strength

During the late visit of Dir. Ingersoll to Phila.

whose good I. Will cherish as the best 'milord of
any public service I , attempt, and parent of what
ever distinction I desire.
put before I was honored with your invitation,
my arrangements 'were made for leaving home to

it refers to require my,attendance, besides, the gen

And may I not doubt alSo,!Whether it. will not

_allow me to deny
myself the gratification of accepting it, With as
surances of the gratitude with which I shall ever
remain, gentlemen; your much obliged and him, We
servant; C. .1. INGERSOLL.
We hope our readers will give the 'annexed arti
cle, from the Washington Union, a careful reading
and attentive examination. It shows how' utterly
false. and untenable are the positions assented by
the editor of the- Gazette. We have, heretofore,
shown- that the .Congress of Texas declared the
Rio Brave, which is but another name for the Rio
Grande, the line between Texas and Mexico. The
proclamation of: Gen. Woll, issued by authority
of the Mexican government, in 1844, also points
clearly to the same - fiver, as the boundary-line;
upon this point, therefore, it would seem there was
no disagreement—Mexico and Texas both regard
ing the Rio Grande as the boundary line :'
MEXICAN ADMISSION OF BOUNDARY.
The charge against the administration which
some of the whip journals are sending all over the
country is this: that the Del Norte is not the bound
ary of the State of Texas, and that the President
had no right under the conititutiou to send troops
to repel an invasion on this side of that river.,
Mexico herself has not only neka!!:cd but she has
time and again affirmed, and she still affirms, the
exact contrary. She maintains that the land on the
east bank of the Del Norte is Texas, and that it is
not Mexico any more than all Texas is Mexico.-1
This we will now Fiore, . documents hi hand. 111
we prove it, there is an end to the whole charge
against the President of violating the constitution'
by sending General Taylor to the Del Norte, under
orders to prevent and repel invasion on this side of!
that river.
On the '2oth of June. 184.1, General Well—then
commander-in-chief of the Mexican army on the
northeastern flontier—issued, in pursuance of a de_
cree of the Mexican government bearing date 17th
June, 1843, the following general orders. The dCm
urnent is, just now, worth peru,ing-,
"llr..trmutnrcus 01 , Tat I.llglt Or THE :NORTH,
"Mier, June 2 0 , 1841.
"I, Adrian Woll, general of brigade, &e., wake
known:
“I. The armistice agreed on with the depart
ment of Texas having expired, and the war being; in
consequence, recomenced against the inhabitants
of that department, all communication with it
ceases.
"2. Every individual, of whatever condition, who
may contravene provisions of the proceeding arti
cle, shall be regarded as a traitor, and shall receive
the pnnishmenr prescribed is article .15, title 11,
treatise 8, of - the articles of war.
"3. „Every individual who may le found at tic dis
tance of one.leaguc from the left haat: of the Rio Bra
vo, will be regarded as a favorer and accomplice of
the usurpers of that part if the naiionul territory, and
as a traitor to .his cowery; mad, after a summary
irali;ary trial, shall receive the said puttishmeat.
"4; Every individual who may be compithend
within the provisions of the proceeding
article,
and may be rash enough to fly at the sight of any
force belonging to the supreme g..werument, shall
be crammed until taken, or put to death.
"3. In consideration of the situation of the
towns of Lareda and Santa Rita de Ampudia,
well as of all the farm-houses beyond the Rio Bra
vo; in which remain all the interests of the inhab
itants of the line committed to my charge, I hate
this day received, from the supreme government,
orders to determine the manner by which those
interests are to be protected; but, until the deter
mination of the supreme government be received,
I warn all those who are beyond the limits, here
prescribed, to bring them within the line, or to
abandon them; as those who (I::tob,'iy this order
hill infallibly auferthe punishment here establish
ed. • "ADRIAN WOLL."
Now this document shows:
Ist. That Mexico holds the territory on time east
bank of the Del Norte to be Texas;
2d. That, as Texan territory, she was resolved
to make it the scene of a new of exlerminre ion
and
3d. Some light is thus thrown on the propriety
and constitutionality of sending an American
force to defend it against , armed invasion by such
foes, after it had been made a congressional and
revenue district of the United States by act of
Congress.,
If we were not disposed to be merciful to an
opponent already down, we would ask the Intelli-
gencer at least to say aomehing purporting to be a
reply to this.
G. Scorr.—The Washington Union, referring
to the arrangements making for the Mexican war,
says :—"From the mixed character of the corps—
partly of regular troops, and more largely of vol
unteers--it seems natural that the generabin-ekief
of the army, should take the held—and we presume
that General Scott will, as a matter of course, as
sume the command,"
[COMMUNTCATED.]
WAR.
Recent expressions of public opinion throughout
the Union, give assurance that every man will do
his duty in defence of our common country. No
sooner is it announced that "upon American soil
American blood has been shed," by an invading
army, than a storm of patriotic passion is rained,
expressive of honest hearts ,resolved to stand by
the country and government.' Volunteers in every
quarter are offering aid to the President, and among
the bravest of our citizens will be found, CoLoyst
.Tnovttio, of the "Pittsburgh Volunteer legion,",
with those under his command, are ready and wil
ling to march in the present, emergency. l Col.
Tnovrtzo, during the war of 1812, was one of the
gallant:Spartan band, whose valor is of record in
connexion with the triumph of American arms at
Fort Neigs. His very,name gives life to his com
patriots in their resolves to free American soil
from invaders upon our borders.
The President , will; view of the undoubted
delity and patriotism of this distinguished officer,
accept the tendered services, of this legion. And,
as we hope in God, for-the natb return of those T

Wood, U. SI N., dated on the first April, at Mazat

vant, Portsmouth;Varten, Shark, and Erie Were
all in port. The doctor says: "We are in hourly
expectation of -some intelligence from hottie t or
from MexicO, Which may control our movements.
On Saturday some movements of the governor ex
cited our suspicions, and created ,a great panic in
town. The soldiers, arms, =Munition, and pub
lic documents were all hurriedly taken out of town;
thereupon all our officers were Ordered off to the
ships, some having been living ashore, and all but
the most necessary communication prohibited. I
alone was directed to continue ashore," &e. "We
have a rumor here that there has been a hostile
meeting between our own and the Mexican forces
on the Rio Bravo, and that Matamoras and Tam
pico arc blockaded: This information is eleven
days later than any account they, have received at
the department, as they inform me, and it cannot
fail to interest you."
CASTLE OF SAN JUAN DE ULUA
The New York courier gives the following
facts, in order that an opinion tnay be formed as
to the probable result of an assault upon . Vera
Cruz. Certainly nothing can be done until a much
larger force is concentrated there than is at pre-
sent in the vicinity:
'The fortress of San Juan de thou would resist
a very heavy attack—one certainly much more
I serious than that of the French, to which it yield
ed a few years since. The French squadron then
consisted of !km large frigates and four bomb
%essels: the former anchored but little over point
blank distance from the eastern Lice of the castle,
end the bomb vessels but little further. There
were mortars in. the castle, but none in use, and
not more than seventeen guns could he brought to
I bear on a single ship, and, on the whole squadron,
I only twenty-six, some of which were carronades,
"Of the French vessels, thea . Cycfcps had two
mortars, and in two hours she threw one hundred
and eighty shells. The others did their share.—
One of the bombs lodged in the magoalize, which
was blown up, and about two hundred men des
stroyed. After six hours . fighting, the Mexicans
yielded. Since that time the fortiess haS . - been
thioughly repaired; a new water-battery has been
added; thirty-two and forty-two pounders ha: e
been Mounted in place of the twelves and sigh- 1
teens; frau twelve to twenty heavy mortars have
been introduced, with several Paixhan eight inch
guns, and c:erything, is in the very bet condition
to resist an attack."
The following from the Erie Observer is wor
thy of attention. If we wish to retain trade we
must push alie.ul the Pittsburgh arid Connellsville
Rail Road:
Lrod.--Large quantities of lead from the Mi
. nois and Wisconsin mines are daily passing through
our canal on its way to an easteni . m ar ket, Thi s
lead is brought down the Mississippi, theace up the
Ohio to Beaver, thence by the Extension canal to
this city, and from here shipped for Buffalo and the
Eastern cities. We consider this fart one of t'ic
strongest proofs of the i.uperiority me: all others
of this rout between the cast and the Ohio and
Mississippi rallies—passing as it does, both the
Miami, Er.e, Portsmouth, and Cleveland canals,l
and seeking the& this channel a cheaper and quick-I
Cr passage to market."
Troops Ready.—We learn from the State Quar
ter-Master General's Office last CN enin that 954
soldiers, rank and file, have received the amount of
their bounty money and one month's pay; that 1.65
men, rank and file, now in the Barracks. %sill re.
ceive their pay to 11;iy, and that 708 men, com
prised in difitrent companies, are now ready ler
inspection. and to be mustered into the service of
the United States. Including the latter, there are
18-18 men who may he retarded 'early for ser
vice, up to last night. The comp.:nos exp,e;ed
from the country, an•t those still forming in the
city, may make up the replisite number.
the C ause ,—W e have been requested by
I several influential merchants who have called on as.
to suggest the propriety of callinga meeting of that
class of our fellow-citizens immediately, at some
central place, for the purpose of aiding the present
millitary movement, by a prompt and liberal sub
scription, to enable young men to organize them
selves, who are willing and anxious to do so.—
Many merchants have expressed to us their willing
ness to come forward and subscribe liberally, pro
vided the matter was set on foot in a business-like
manner. They complain, and we think with good
cause, that every movement of the kind has always
been frustrated by a few officious individnals. void
alike of common sense and real patriotism. who
invariably assume tfie leadership.—N. 0. Delta,

.111i.5s Rourberg's Concrel.—This young lady, who
has truly been styled by some of the Southern edi-
tors, the Goddess of the Harp. - gave her first con
cert to a respectable audience at Masonic Hall on
Monday evening. Her performances, as far as we
have heard, gave universal satisfaction, and it may
he said of her, as of Ole Bull and Vieux Tempx, that
she is a perfect mistress of the instrument. The
execution of some of the more difficult passages.
was done with such ease and grace that the sounds
seemed to proceed &cm Fairy fingers.
13ut what is more remarkable, she has selected
I the ancient Harp without pedals, and makes many
of her fiats and sharps by adroitly tightening or
loosening the screws of the Harp with her kit hand
while playing. The Harp upon which she plays,
we are informed, is supposed to be several hundred
years old. If the Ancients could discourse such
sweet music upon it, as MiSs Roxu EDO, the world
has not improved much in that `science.

JAYNE'S - -EXPECTORANT:
TIIIS medicine ha.' s already proved itself tahe all
that it has been recommended; by those who
have given it a fair test in this country, and - the
demanddeand for it increases daily. We have just heard
of an important cure of Asthma, which has been
effected by the u. , e 'of it in a neighboring - town---
the case was that of a female who had. for a long';
time been under the care of a physician; hut had
received no relief, and her case Ni-BS considered
hopeless. As a last resort she purchased a bottle
of Dr. Jaynes, Expectorant, which caused her to
expectorate freely, gradually ea.sed her cough, and
rapidly restored her todicalth. We have no hesita
tion in saying, that 'this preparation of Dr. Jayne,
for the cure of Coughs, Colds, Influenza, Asthma.
Consumptions, &c.. is the most valuable medicine
ever offered to the American public. There is no
quackery about Jayne is one of the most
skilful praCticing phystcians; and - wherever his va
rious preparations have been thorotigly tested, he
is looked upon as a great public :benefactor:—

A N DIPORTANT CURE BY DR, JAYNES
A
ALTERATIVE.—We have been informed by
Mrs Mahan, a grand-daughter of old Gen. Wayne,
that she sufrered fora number of years from -the
growth of a I arge go i tro us tumor of the throat, which
besides .the deformity-, produced both a difficulty of
deglution and of breathing.' Indeed, she says, the
pressure upon the windpipe was so great as to.pre
vent her-from sleeping in a recumbent position,
and often suffocation appeared inevitable, She also
labored.under severe indisposition frornLiver Com
plaint and Jaundice, for which she commenced.the
use of Dr. Jaynes Alterative. which she took for
sit or seven weeks. and her general health was
completely re-established by it, and perceiving
some diminution in the size of the Goitrous Tumor,
she was encouraged to persevere in the use of the
Alteratile until every restage of the painful Tumor
was entirely removed. "
