been placed in pos, , ession of the subjoined
highly
,ititportant ink II igeth'e from Mexico.
The news was received by the British man
of war, which touched at the Balize with
despatches from the British Minister at
Mexico, for his goVernment. The pur
port of the despatches are that the United
States have taken possession of California
and that the Revolution in fa %or of Santa
Anna is complete.
We publish the follow ing letter, from
which it will be perceived that the steamer
Arab, having Santa Anna on board, was in
Fight of Vera crux on the I;ith inst.
VERA CRUZ, Aug. 16,"1840.
Availing ourselves of the opportunity of
a British man of war, we have just time to
state that Mexico and Puebla have just
pronounced in favor of federalism and San
ta Anna. General Bravo's Government
had hardly been established when it was
'overtlu•otvtl, and General Sales has put
himself at the head of the Government un
til the arrival of Santa Anna—tranquility
was restored. Gomez Fareas a l ided the
partizans of Santa. Anna to bring about the
revolution. Ills sons have come down to
hid welcome to Santa Anna, tVho left I la
vanna on the Bth instant in a British steam
er called the Arab. accompanied by Al
monte, Lanariz, I:cjow, and Beeves, and
they ought to be here every day. Gener
al Paredes was taken Prisoner, and is kept
in the citadel of Mexico. Gen. Sales has
issued already a letter of'convocation of
Congress on the principles of 1824, and
the members arc to assemble in Mexico on
the 6th Dec. next.
The present conveyance carries the
news of the annexation of California to the
States, received last night by express,
that the British vessel might carry it to
Orleans and to Great Britain.
The N. 0. Picayune of the 25th August
Saws that the British brig of war Daring, ar
rived off the Balize last evening from Ve
ra Cruz, and two of her officers came up
to the town this morning with mail and
despatches. The steamer arrii;ed off Ve
ra Cruz on the itith, August, - with Santa
Anna on board. lie immediately placed
himself at the head of the move in the De
partment. The Departments of Puebla
and Mexico have declared for Santa Anna,
and Paredes has already been taken priso
ner. The revolt at the capital was headed
by Gcn. :ales.
LATE FROM THE AMERICAN ARMY.
Later from thei=vlrmy=== - ,grrival of the
Mckim=•Capture of China by Copt.
':McCulloch—.lrriedl of Gem 'Taylor at
Comargo—.Rdrance of Capt. Thmran.
The steamship McKim arrived from
the Tirasos Santiago, at an early hour on
Sunday morning, bringing dates Iron Point
Isabel, of the 17th, and from Camargo, the
present Head Quarters of the Army, of the
13th of August.
The news by this arrival from Matamo
ros is not of general mOment. Col. Clark
has succeeded in re-establishing order in
the city, by putting into execution the or
ders dictated for that purpose by - General
Taylor.
The town of China, on the river San Ju
an, 65 or 70 miles from Camargo, was ta
ken on the sth inst., by Capt. 'McCulloch,
of the Texan Rangers, without opposition.
Col. Seguin, with 100 Mexicans, were in
the town, but on the approach of the Amer
icans they retreated.
The regiment of Rangers, under Col.
Jack Hays and Lieut. Col. Walker, left
Matamoras about the 10th inst. on an ex
cursion into the interior. The precise
rout to be taken by them is not known,
and will depend, probably, upon circum
stances. We hope to be kept fully ap
prised of the movement of this corps, to
which great importance is attaced in the,
army.
SANTA ANNA.—The N. Orleans Picay
une says before Santa Ana left Havana he
took letters front Gen. &Campbell to Cont.
Conner, and, avower himself, in reply to
some inquiry as to his intentions as follows:
"If the people of my country are tin• war,
then i am with them ; but I would prefer
peace."
'IIIE BEAUTIES OF WAR
A correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, writing
from Matamoros under date of Aug. 5, draws the
following picture of the crime and demoralization
that lie concealed beneath `•the pomp and circum
stance of glorious war:" '
"War engenders vice of , all kinds, as
you well know ; and Matamoras had be
come so disorderly from the." loafing popu
lation poured in upon it from the States,
that Gen. Taylor has been under the ne
cessity of putting it and the country in the
occupancy of his army, under martial law.
You can have no idea of the number of
ormorants tbat . follow the army, armed
with revolvers and bowie-knives, and car
rying about with them the implements of
their calling—dice, cards and roulettes,
sweat-cloth and thimbles-----a flagon of whis
ky and a jug of rum. The gambling es
tablishments and grog shops had become
so numerous as to call for suppression, and
old Zack has done it. Murders of late
have been frequent, and the military hos
pitals have been taxed for attentions to the
..cut up" to an unprecedented extent.—
Some men have been literally butchered
alive, all sworn to the Meiicans," but it
would be fair to divide between them and
l'ohoitcci - s the odium of the damning
&Yetis."
DRINKING ON THE FIEI,II OF BATTLE.-
During the heat of the action of the Bth,
- Col. 'Belknap sent a mounted servant to
the rear to get him' some claret= as he re
!tuned, Gen. Taylor was near, and he
called him to take drink. While the ser

Our renders are no doubt already informed of the

Loco!6co Com'ention.
On Monday last the Locofocos of this county
met in convention to nominate a county'Picket.
As the prKeedings weft all had beyond the gaze
of the vulgar, we can know but little beyond
what appears in their official publication. An
nexed is the ticket recommended to the support of
the faithful:
Congress—Joel B. Danner.
Assembly—lsaac E. Merman.
Commissioner—Jonathan -Ray»zontl.
Director—.lbratana ,S"pangler.
Auditor—Jos. Bi(linger, (of Bow 4k)
Of the most of the candidates we know but lit
tle, but believe them generally to be "clever fel
lows." At all events the Ticket will do as well
to be defeated as any other.
Mr. McClean and Free-Trade.
Mr. MeCLEAN- seems not to have consulted the
Free Trade leaders in this County prior to the
making of Mat Tariff speech. At all events
it has been the signal for his sacrifice, and accord
ingly in the Locofoco convention on Monday last
Messrs. E. W. Stable, Daniel Sheffer. and Win..
Yeats i%t e ere appointed Congressional Conferees
with instructions to drop Mr. MCCLEAN and sup
port Mr. IfAxsr.n! Much as we might regret
the reward thus accorded to Mr. McClean for his
manly resistance of the British Tariff of 15.16,
we are gratified at the prospect of having a fair
tight in this district upon the Tariff question.—
Home industry rs. Foreign Pauper Labor—Amer
lean vs. British interests—will be the issue ; who
can doubt the , resultf The vote in Convention
stood 19 for Danner, and 17 for McClean. The
delegates came in 18 for each, but Danner proved
h imself the better maneuverer.

ITT . The Compiler is extracting liberally from
the speech of Free-trade WlLmor, the only one of
the Pennsylvania delegation in Congress that
dared betray his State by voting for the British
Tariffßill, and pronounces Mr. W.'s principles to
be 'the principles of a man, a christian, a demo
crat—principles upon the dissenfination of which
God himself will smile approvingly!" Our friend
is getting along finely—no mistaking that lan

Editors light their own battles
The following resolution, among others. was
a,lopteil at a recent meeting, of the NN pigs of Met'
cer county :
I?csolreil, That the Whig party, in ask
ing the support of the eitizens.of Pennsyl
vania for their candidate for Canal Com
missioner, ito so in the well-founded Con-
Adence in' their honesty and patriotism.—
It is known that Jas. M. Pon:lnt conies
not Mitre the people holding olliec, and
presented by any combination of Politi
cians. One of the people, presented by
the people, and maintaining the principles
they advocate,, he stands before themir^ , '
and untrammelled: Now is the time for
Pennsylvania to speak in the londesttones
in favor of the Tartg . of '42, and give a
rebuke to those politicians and citizens
who have so fraudulently bartered away
her interests. Let her rally arouml the
TARIFF CANDIDATE, and let it not
be a party triumph, so much as a triumph
of principleof the Tariff of '42 over the
abominable British act of '46.
it is really amusing to observe the shifts to
which our locoluco friends of the Press are, in
their extreme misery, compelled - to resort in order
to escape the charges incessantly pouring upon
them from the Tariff presses of the State. The
richest of all the expedients, however, is the por
traiture of a most wicked and horrible dissension
in the Whig ranks that is likely to prove the im
mediate death of poor "Whiggery," with which
the Locofoco editors are at present - treating their
patrons. The Tariff of 1S 12 has been repealed,
and a British Free-trade system established in its
stead ; American Industry has been sacrificed to,
Foreign Pauper Labor; Pennsylvania betrayed into
the hands of Southern slave-drivers; ruin and dis
tress are being scattered throughout the industrial'
population of the land ; the wails of a betrayed
anti ruined people are coming up from work shop
and counting-house ; loud and bitter denuncia
tions of the treason anti traitor may be distinctly
heard all over the State, among members of all
parties, presaging aught else than good to Loco
focoisrn at the approaching contest : but no mat
ter for all this—it is discovered that Gam:l.l 2 , of
the New York Tribune, and WEen, of the New
York Courier, have taken issue upon the subjects
of "Fourierism" and "Anti-llentism," and forth
with the poor, frightened, miserable wights that
preside over the Locofoco presses, clap their hands
in joy, and, forgetting all the ills, and dissensions,
and well defined broils that are effectually break
ing up the hitherto impregnable discipline of
their own camp, send up a shout of mingled grati
tication and indignation over what they are pleased
to term the "insincerity, and dishonesty. and fatal
dissensions" of the Whig party! Well, it is in
deed awful "to think about," and we do hope that
Messrs. Greedy and Webb will see, ere it. is too
late, the mighty mischief - that is to ensue to the
Whig party, unless they at once adopt some
common faith upon the doctrines of Fourierism
and Anti-Rent ism.

the case. The wort of those who voted for the
Tariff of I Sl6, never intended an that. The most
timid or those who arc to suffer by the abomina
ble law, nevel ' expected such a. result.
But in the midst of gene rat propeiity: in the
ball flow of business ; in the security of tho,e
checks against a foreign debt that once annoyed
us; in the con-qatitly improving condition ut the
working classes ; in the steady development on
the great mineral wealth of the country, we are
met with a law wantonly. foolishly passed; that
disturbs the current of business, thatparalyses VII.

tence of those who are able and willing to work ;

the country to the other, a voice of lamentation is
heard. And fears are expressed. that a i there
must be a diminution of demand and reward for
home labor, so there may be a total absence with
some, of the means of living. The attempt
is tirade to awaken the people to a just sense of
their danger, and especially to the proper, the con
stitutional means of avoiding,. or mitigating the
evil. But:in presenting the matter fairly to them ,
it is deemed just towards them, and towards truth,
to say, that bad as are the measures of this Gov
ernment, we are. yet this side of utter ruin ; that
thorigh every great interest is jeoparded, (except.
ing, perhaps, great interest for the use of money,)
yet all these great interests Ste not destroyed.
flow poor, how low, roust be the appLeciution
of the powers and duties of a a republican govern
ment, that shall find mitigation for its errors in the
admitted fact, that it has not yet succeeded in de
stroying all the great interests of the country ;
that though blow after blow has• fallen, yet the
youthful energy of the people can still sustain
themselves—prostrate, perhaps, but still alive—
'cast down, but not destroyed
.-
A blow is aimed at the iron and coal interests
of Pennsylvania—interests that were beginning to
flourish, beginning to have influences beneficial
to individuals and the public, and there seems to
be a disposition on the part of the advocates of
the present administration, to excuse that blow,
because it is not entirely destructive. Why should
the blow be given 1 Why should any interests
be jeoparded 1 No call had been made in Con
gress for such an act, and nothing in the circum
stances of the country rendered the blow necessa
ry; and to us it appears an insult to the people,
%rho cry out against the wicked law, to tell them
that, perhaps, they are not utterly ruined.
'Cat down Trage3 to a Lower Standard,'
"Ten Cents a Day
The Doylestown Intelligencer states that an ar
ticle from the Philadelphia Ledier,, is going the
rounds of the Locofoco Free-trade papers, in
which it is plainly shown how easy a matter it is
for Pennsylvania to hear the impositions of the
British Tariff. The pith of the argument is con
tained in the following extract :
. "The profits of the mine holders, the
miners, the Boatmen, the State and the
railroad companies, must be brought down
to a closer standard."
There you have it, "just as easy." REDUCE
the WAGES of the MINERS! and the BOAT
MEN !! Bring them dow to Buchanan's stand
ard of TEN CENTS A DAY !!—that will chea
pen the cost of Coal considerably. Then cut off
a large slice more from another expensive item—
the TOLL ON THE PUBLIC WORKS—the
rail-roads and canals! No matter iPthnse works
do produce little revenue. Our State interest can
easily be paid by TAXING the FARMERS!—
And where's the Farmer that would not be willing
to pay an additional Tax. for the sake of allowing
our Free-trade Locofocos to swell the profits of
the Duke of York on his Scotia Coal Mines to
half a million of Dollars pe annum ? What sort
of a democrat is it that would grumble at this ?
If there be any, let them be "kicked out of the
party" at once !

Joy!--The intelligence , from
Europe, by tlw CalNlonia, informs us of
the delight of Britian at the passage of her
Bill by. American Comrress. \V hirp the •
act has smitten down almost every Ameri
can interest, tt seems that it has elevated
almost every British one. English iron
has risen under the excitement, and every
English interest will feel the effect of the .
anti Anterean policy. And now our people
may prepare for the results which every !
sane statesman anticipated. The wishes •
of MeDullie, Nvho proclaimed that he pre- I
ferred English to American interests, and
loved Bristol more than Boston, will be
realized.—Phdadelphia .li/ter/can. •
FArtmERS' LOOK 111:1tE..' -- The Locos
say that the Free Trade policy of the pres
ent administration is to benefit the farmers.
How stands the case .f f—The news by the
Caledonia states that a fitrthe r decline lit
the prier of grain has taken place in Eng
land. So it seems that the opening of the !
English ports operates to the direct injury
of the Farmers in this country.
Ever since the passage of the Tariff l
Bill the price of Flour and Orlin has been •
going down. The Baltimore Patriot notes
a considerable decline in wheat since Sat.. ;
urday week. The best new prime red t
will not Rpw command more than H 5 cents
per bushel. Oats has also declined to
2'2 cents per bushel. Flour is likewise,
dull of sale.
And Hai ti in the face of the passage of
Sir Robert Peel's hill in EnLrland, and i ßob-:
ert J. Walker's bill in the U. States ! Ve
rily, our farmers are to be benefited by
Free Trade
l'acts like the above should teach our
Farmers a lesson of wisdom. They eau'
now see, and will continue to learn every I
day, that the British Tart:ll' Bill will op- i
crate quite as disastrously to their interests
as to those of the manufacturer. It is a
truth which experience will teach, that the
interests of the farmers and Manufac
turers oh' this country are one—and what
ever tends to depress the limner will op
erate against the latter also.
l'iticrs or WllE:yr.-IVheat is selling in
Ohio fur 52 cents per busliel, and in lowa'
at 31 Cents. These facts do not look as it'
the farmer has been benefited by the re
peal of the British Corn Laws and the:
establishment of a British Tariff. 'rho;
western produce will supply our markets
in a short time, to such a degree, that out
thrmers, will quickly become convinced',
that a hoMe market is of more value than
one three thousand miles off.
