•
..'„dary, which are have shown to be utterly, false, and
thegoodDeacon finding himself in a 'tight place,' has
.... resorted to low abuse, in the vain hope of diverting
public attention from . the point at issue. He at
.'
' tempted to show that President Polk had trampled
upon tbe constitution of his country—that Gen.
Taylor, by his orders, bad ,invaded Mexico—that
-his army was posted upon boil whichdid not belong
• :
to Texas, and over which neither the Republic or
the United States had ever exercised civil juris
.
- diction. All this he stated with a view of show
- ing that the ..-Imerituit gam-amen/ was in the along,
and that .lexico.was an injured nation. In reply,
_ we referred to official Jlocument, and proved con
' niusively, that hisstatements were utterly false .-
-The facts stated in thesieech 'of Judge Douglass,
which we published esterday, x e regard as
• .
z:entizely 'ccraclusive upon the point in ditlatte.—
, , very soil upon which the Army of Gen. Tay
4-Icti is posted is within a regularly organized Tex

congress by Col.ltxrewr. The voters in this coon
ty, were also represented in the Legislature of the
State of relit:, which selected •Me.srs. HOUSNA and
Rusk, to represent the state in the Senate of the

diced blockhead of ;the Gazette, asserts that 'the
country belongs to Mexico, and that it has been
::unjustly and unconstitutionally invaded by order of

ItTexican title to the territory claimed by the

ted States, as within the state of Texas, or we fear

will be overlooked. President Parades will not be

Recent events in Mexico, and more especial
ly on the Rio Grande, where hostilities against our
pioneers and reconnoitering parties, have commen

vince me that the Government of the United States
will no longer hesitate to-authorize the concentra

Having • solicited the President's authority to
concentrate upon that bonier fifty battallions—
each battalion to consist of six hundred men, to
be accepted as volunteers into the service of the
United States for six moths, unless sooner dischar
ged—l take this occasion to say that your Excel
lency will contribute much to the interest of the
service, and anticipate a requisition from the War
Department, by authorizing two battallions—one
ofinfantry and one of Riflemen, of the chivalric
volunteer corps of the State of Missouri—to organ
ize and repair to this city as soon as practicable,
where they shall receive arms, with every requi
site supply to render them ready for action, And
from this place they will go by good steamers
to Point Isabel.
I have the honor to be, with great respect, your
obedient servant.

To his excellency, Jousr C. EDW•RDS,
Governor of the State of Missouri.
TO THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE :NITSSOV
Fellow citizens: Our frontier is in danger. The
Mexicans invade our territory. War ' has com
menced—the blood of our friends has been shed,
and our army is menaced by superior numbers.—
Our country needs the services of her defenders at
Point Isabel, and - near Matamoras. A new emer
gency'otTers, in which the soldiers of our country
can further distinguish themselves for patriotism
and bravery. Twelve hundred volunteers are requir
ed from Missouri. Let them be speedily raised.—
Every good citizen will lend his aid in concen
trating a force to repel the attack of the Mexicans,
and to procure by arms redress for the attempt to
prevent the United States from asserting her claims
within her own territory. As an inducement to
enter the service promptly, the Missouri Volum
teem may be assured, that those who reach the
seat of war at an early period, may be employed
in active and hard service. Be prepared to fight.
Expect no light work. A brave soldier has no
reason to underrate his adversary. Meet in St.
Louis. All necessaries will be furnished at that
Point You will be armed in New Orleans, and
shipped thence to the seat of war.

TERRIBLE DISASTER IN
We are indebted to a gentleman of this city for '
the postacript to a letter from Mississippi, dated
May 8, received by a friend of his, giving the par
ticulars of a tornado which swept through 'Grena
da' in that State on the evening previous, which in
its unfortunate results, falls but little short of the
great hurricane at Natchez some years ago. The
writer states .that between twenty-five and thirty
persone were killed, and many others wounded.—
The sufferers were mostly children. The school
house of a Mrs: - Plummer, was blown down, and
that lady and several children killed. The male
Academy was also blown down, killing several of
the children, and wounding Mr. Sample the teach
er. The writer states that he has not learned full
particulars as to the persons killed. He mentions
the wife and two children of a Mr. Robertson,
that were killed by the blowing down of his house,
and one or two of Mr. Sakes children, and two of
Mr. Paines, as all that he could name positively in
addition to those whose deaths are previously enu
merated. The Baptist Brick Church was blown
down with all the houses north of it—the torna
do missing the busines part of the town, but swee
ping with death and devastation the private.reai
dences of the place. The whole town was clothed
in mourning, and the deepest distress and confu
sion was occasioned by this heart-rending occur
ence, Full particulars of the injuries and losses
could not be ascertained for several days.

THE citizens of Pittsburgh continue to be offered
an opportunity to effect insurance upon their
property, by a Domestic institution located among
themselves, based upon domestic capital, andron
ducted by directors, in whose prudence, integrity and
good faith they can readily ascertain whether they
may repose that undoubted security which should
ever attend an assurance transaction.
To persons whose properly has already been dam
aged or destroyed by fire or water, the adSantage of
personally adjusting the loss with arf, institution AT
HOME; will bestrikingly erident. To those who suffer
ed by the Great Fire, this particular corporation need.
no recommendation. The prompt paynient of the
whole amount of its losses--st.sniT Two 'mamma
ruousarrn DOLLAIUS-h3 to them a sufficient guarantee
of future security. .
It is the part of all prudent men, however forttf-
nate, to anticipate calamity for the purpose of avoid
ing its effects. To suck as haye hitherto eschped, as
'
well as to those who hare sustained loss the facility,
of protection and indemnity, offered this instita- -
lion, will be the strongest inducement to avoid the
reflections and regrets which must be experienced
by those who suffer without hope, of restitution.• •

JAYNE'S EXPECTORANT
THIS medicine has already proved itself to be all
that it has been recommended, by those. who
have given it a fair test in this country, and the
demand for it increases daily. We have jnatlidtigl
of an important cure of Asthina, which Lai been
effected by the use of it in &neighboring
. town
the ease was that of a female who had for along.
time - been under the care of a physician, but had
received no relief, and her case was considered
hopeless. As a last resort she purchased a bottle -
of Dr. Jaynes Expectorant, which caused her to
expectorate freely, gradually eased her cough, and
rapidly restored her to health. We have no hesita
tion in saying that this preparation of Dr. borne.
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 it—Dr. Jayne is one of the most
skilful practicing physicians; and where - yer his re
dons preparations have been thorongly tested, he
is looked upon as a great public benefactor.—

Mrs Mahan, a grand-daughter of old . Gen; Wayne,
that she suffered for a number of years ftom the
growth of alums goitrous 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 Ives so great as to pre- •
vent her from sleeping in a`recumbent posftion,
and often suffocation appeared inevitable. She alsos
labored wafer severe indisposition from Liver Com:.
plaint and Jaundice, for which she commenced the •
use of Dr. Jayne's Alterative, which she took for
six or seven weeks, and her general health was
completely re-established by it, and perceiving
some diminution in the size of the GoitrousTrimor,
she was encouraged to persevere in the use Of the
Alterative until every vestage of the painful:Tumor
was entirely removed. • • -
