I might as well have it replaced first as

At no period in the history of our coun
try have we had occasiun tip-congratulate
ourselves more on our national prosperity.
than the present. In the midst 0! war,
we have increased in wealth; with dimin
ished tuea uur'revenue has augmented.
War. that great calamity ol nations,
scarcely touches us with its witheiing ef
lecte. It seems to be but another rphere
of enterprise to our daring population, and
a means oi distinction to our gallant sul
diets. It is a war nut of our seeking. and
in which the administration has engaged
with great reluctance. It is a war, pro
duced by the vanity oi our enemy, and
his utter depreciation at our character and
resources.
The Mextcans, but a few months ago,
looked upon us with the same superciltou
pride with which the prople of the (anti.
nent of Europe were more in the habitot

thnn military enterprise. We had to shuw
the Mexicans that a purple. without being
military, may be warlike; that martial
bearing does not consist In the marching
and cuuntermarching of livwicd martinats.
The Mexicans are now undeceived in
regard to our national qualities; but they
hate us in consequence, with the hatred ol
wounded self-lose; they would try to a
venge their battle of Lelpsic at Buena Vla
ts. and their Waterloo delest at Cerro
Gordo, and the military adventurers ol
Mexico would play patriots; but they can
not rouse the better part at the populaliun
to any respectable show of resistance.—
The Mexican patriot who takes up arms
in delence of his country’must he pull];
and the government has no money; the
purveyors of provisions. the nrmorerfl. the
the manufacturers ‘of gunpowder want to
be paid. and the government has no mo

Santa Anna. is himsell a fogitive. surroun
ded only by a military mob, without dis.
ciplin'e or organization. andhe. too. en:
treats the government to send him money;
but there is none to be had in Mexico.—
'l'he mere mention oi lorced' loans has bu
ried private capital; all kinds 0! busmess

long nlzcr lhe'cauSc which has called them
into exintence has been removed.
And what have the clergy to expect from
thus introducing anarchy into the State?
Will they alterwarda be able to master
the wild passion for murder and plunder
which they now invoke in the name of the
Divine Mediator? Will they ntrengthon
the church by the blood which they cause
to be shed to no purpose, but to render the
humiliation ol their country more complete
and to perpetuate the military deipotism,
that is the cause of all the mislortuneo
which have belallen Mexico P The priest
hood must necessarily comprehend the
magnitude of the principles here at stake;
and it the priesthood were to overlook
them, the hierarchy—that perpetuator of
church discipline—would understand the
true principles 0! religion and morality too
WP”. to plunge into so fatal a delusion.
But the Mexican clergy has no cause to
dread the presence of our troops. Their
places of Worship have been held sacred
by our commanders and soldiers ; their
priests have been respected. and General
Scott. now Commander-in-Chiel ol the
Army of Invasion, has himuell had a favo
rite daughter. who finished her earthly ca
reer in a Catholic convent. The Catho
lics are a large and prosperous sect in the
United States. and the Catholic citizens
at any part 0! Mexico that may come un
der the dominion ol the United States,
would receive the same treatment as those
at other States of the Union. The Mexi
can hierarchy will be made to understand
this by evory possible means at the dispo
sition ol the government. and receive ev
ery reasonable pledge of the religious lul.
fitment of our solemn engagement to that
eflect.
Another reason why the organization of
guerrillas will be attended with insurmoun
table obstacles. is to be lound in the pros
perous condition ol‘that portion of the Mex
ican territory which I! now under the mil
itary dominion ol the United States.—
i Wherever our victorious arms have been
carried, the arts of peace have followed
them. InSIEAC at destroying. we have
built upcuinmerce ; instead ol impoverish
mg. we have enriched the country with
our enterprise and our wealth. The pitch
ing of our tents proclaimed the reign ol
law and order; and the watchword of our
sentinela was 'fprolection to lite and pro
perly.” In vain may the annals of mate
ry be searched tor a similar war. It was
not the Gotha and Vandals invading the
lertile plains of an educated pCOPlet'bU‘
the pioneers of civnlization exploring a
country at boundless wealth. teaching and
persuading as they went on. This. the
mute enlightened ol the Mexicans already
feel and understand. though their pride
may pievcnt them lrom publicly acknow
ledging it, and hence the little response.
on their part, to the impassioned call ”to
attna!”_ ;
But while it has been. and still is. the
steady policy at our govarnment to avoid
whatever might unnecessarily displease or
exasperate the Mexicans—while we have
aubsisted our army and navy from our own
slates—while we have respected the lives.
property and religion ol the inhabitants ol
the country. and thereby made ii the lil
terest ol the invaded people to treat us ra
ther as friends and deliverers from their
own military despots, than as enemies to
their zcountry and religion, we are not
lacking the means of the most powertul
coercion. and possess in our volunteers, a
iguerrilla lorce, far superior to any that
1 Mexico. or any other country on earth,
i can bring in the field. '
r Our 'l‘exan Rangers and Miasissippi'riv
flemen are all marksmen. They deal out
certain death at a distance of two or three
hundred yards. and palay the arm oi the
poor Ranchero long belore he has a chance
to poise his lance. From their habits of
tile and early training they are inured to
every latigue; and. though craving"much
more food than the Mexicans; care but
little of what It. consists. ‘But, above all
things, they are superior to the Mexicans
in intelligence. quickness ol perception,
and firmness of purpose. Here itis where
the qualities of the tace'weigh {earlully
in the balance.“ ,The Anglo-Saxon tree
has, on this continent, struck itstoots
deep in the north. while its branches are
overhung with the most luxurious south
ern foliage. We combine the iron 0! the
Scythian with the temper of the Castitian
—strength and chivalry—Nimrod and cl
cid Compeador. - V '
The two parties. opposed to each other
in this war, are too unequal lor the con~
test to be a. long one. A mere military
occupation of the country might exhaust
the resources of ourvgoveromeot; but such
is not contemplated by the President: and
his cabinet. Our people are eminently a
'calonizingvpeople‘. and the territory which
'we now hold. and especially that, which

is it wise and generous for in to do so P
Shali the whole Mexican people sufl'er for

that this is not the intention ol the admin
islralion. and that the latter. in view of
the necessity oi living hereaiter in peace
and amity with our sister republics, and
for the purpose of setting the world an
example of republican moderation. is now
willing to conclude a pence with Mexico
on the same terms as those proposed alter
the battle oi Monterey. We have reason
to believe that this moderation on the part
oi the administration is principally owing
to the mild and slateainanlike counsel of
Mr. Buchanan. who has succeeded in ma
king his views prevail in the Cabinet of the
President.
That there is a party. and anatrong and
srnwing one, which is lor retaining the
whole of the conquered territoryhnnd that
if the war continues, a party may spring
up in favor of subjugating the whole ol
Mexieo, Can hardly be callad in question.
But the administration In straining every
