    cion, th honor, the r!htt, and the interests of
our country.
The President then refers to instructions given
to Gen. Taj lor in August last, authorising him,
incase of emergency, to call upon Texas and the
neighboring states for volunteers, and says :
On the 2d day of March, he was again remin
ded, "in the event of the approach of any consi
derable Mexican force, promptly and efficiently
to ose the authority with which he wae clothed
to call to him auch auxiliary force as he might
need." War. actually existing, and our ter
ritory having been invaded, General Taylor,
pursuant to authority vested in him by my di
rection, has called on the Governor of Texas
for tour regiment of State troops two to be
mounted, and two toserveon loot; and on the
Governor of Louisiana for four regiments of in
fantry, to be sent to him aa soon as practicable
In further vindication of oar rights and de
fence of our territory,! invoke the prompt ac
tion of Congress to recognise the existence of
the war, and to place at the disposition of the
Executive the means of prosecuting the wsr
with vigor, and thus hastening the restoration of
peace. To this end 1 recommend that author
ity should be given te call into the public ser
vice a large body of volunteers to serve for not
less than aix or twovle months, unless sooner
discharged.
A volunteer force is, beyond question, mora
efficient than any other description of citizen
soldiers; and it is not to be doubted that a num
ber far beyond that required would readily rush
to the field upon the call of their country. I
further recommend that a liberal provision be
made for sustaining our entire military force,
nd furnishing it with supplies and munitions
of wsr.
The most energetic and prompt measures, and
the immediate appearance in arms of a. large
end everpowering force, are recommended to
Congress as the most certain and efficient means
of bringing the existing collision with Mexico
to a speedy and successful termination.
In making these recommendations, t deem it
proper to declare that it is my anxious desire not
only to terminate hostilities speedily, but to
bring all matters in dispute between this govern
ment and Mexico to an early and amicable ad
justment ; and, in this view, I shall be prepared
to renew negotiations whenever Mexico shall
be ready to receive propositions, or to make
propositions of her own.
Dtiptpin. The nerves of the bumtn body

to ths -ain- Aid although the Head can, un
doubtedly, like other organs, be ths seat of primary
disorder, yet, in the great majority of cases, the un
easy sensations tbsre experienced are symptomatic
of disordered Stomach; and further, theie is abun
dant evidence to prove that cruditiea in the Sio
mach and Bowels ran, in every grade of human
existence give rise to spasmodic action in every
organ of the body ; and whether we survey it in
the agonising form of Tic Doloreaux the alarming
convulsions of the Epileptic seizure or in thst ir
ritable condition of the nerves of the heart occasion
ing palpitation they can all frequently be traced
to the source above mentioned, and be cured by
mild evancuant and tonic remedies. To relieve a
state of so much suffering snd distress, (in which
body snd mind slsa participate.) Bbandbbtm'
Pills ar confidently recommended; as, by com
bining aromatic, tonic and cleansing i roperties,
they remove all oppressive sccumulstions, strength
en the Stomach, induce a healthy appetite, and im
part tranquility to the nervous system.
