Compiler says -" A letter has been
received by a merchant Of this city,
dated New Orleans, May 10Th, which
states that ii was reported there on that
day that Mexico had declared WAR

unwise as to declare war against the
United States. There may be difficult
ties to be adjusted, and these it is to be
hoped will be intimately adjusted, up
on terms which shall be fair and salts

At "a public dinner given TO Mr. WISE.
at Williamsburg, Va, last week, Presi
dent Dew OF William and Mary College
being called on for a toast spoke as fol.
lows:
President Dew being called on for a
Toast, said that he would tell an anecdote
by way of introduction and explanation
TO the sentiment which he should give.
He said that among the characteristics
of the interesting people Of Ireland. was
that popularity in thought and expression.
which both in speaking and writing, in
great things and little things, leads to the
frequent preparation Of that species OF
blunders termed bulls. He stated that he
had somewhere met with an account OF
the bill Of an Irish Farrer presented to an
English Nobleman, couched 10 phraseolo
gy which had suggested the Toast that
would be offered. II ran as follows:

There IS no example, we dare TO a,

There Is no example, we dare to as
sert. in all the records Of history, of a
nation being subjected to so sudden,
universal, and disastrous reverse in
its affairs, as has overtaken this unfor-
tunate country within the last few
months, by the ignorance, perversity,
and management of its own Governs
ment-not indeed of its Government in
the true sense of the term-but of a
single branch Of it, having no legal or
constitutional right to act by itself, and
acting not only not in concurrence
with, but in lawless and reckless oppo.
sition to the will OF the other and CO..
ordinate branches. The misiortunes
Of the country have, in fact, been in
flicted on it by the exercise of a pure
Despotlsm under the forms of free
Government. The storm, though long
foreseen by careful observers, has burst
so suddenly upon the People, that they
stand amazed at the Ruin, by which
they have been overwhelmed without
the slightest warning from those who
have been its architects.
The condition Of the United States,
up to the fatal period when Gen. JAcx-
SON commenced his series Of usurpa.
tons and follies called THE EXPERT
MENr, might be compared TO that of a
glorious ship, richly ireighted, under
iull sail, with bright skies and favor
ing wind, careering ever the waves to
her destined port, her joyous crew ra.
dlant with hope and confidence. In a
moment has this gallan. bark been
struck down by an overwhelming
storm, and, before a sail could be fur.
led, thrown broadside on the raging
main, her masts shivered into splintcrs,
and her astounded crew clinging to the
rigging for life. Just so sudden and
overwhelming is the crashing and as
founding ruin brought on the country
by the command of our ship of State
having been trusted TO incompetent
hands, governed by a stubborn and
headstrong will.
But, if the suddenness of the calam.
lty that has belallen the country be
astounding, the frmness and respect
for the laws, and for public order, with
which the shock has been borne, is the
most gratifying trait in the character
of the American People that has ever
yet displayed itself. 1t will Justly at,
tract the admiration and applause of
the civilized world. A similar result
Of NAL. administration of the Govern
ment in any country in Europe would
have inevitably brought on revolution
and bloodshed. We have, in our ex.
emption from violence and popular tn.
mults under these circumstances, add.
tional reason TO be proud of our Re-
public.-National Int.

North ANNA BRIDGE BURNr.-Ws re.
greet TO hear that the Rail Road B:idge
over the North Anna was consumed by
fire on Thursday afternoon last. The fire
was communicated by sparks from the al,
ternoon train Of that day, and the wind
being high. it was impossible to arrest Tho
progress Of the flames. The loss, We W.
derstand. will be near $4,000; and the
mail will probably be delayed an hour

history. For the last five weeks they
supported themselves on corn alone. -

fuel, so that they were obliged TO con.
