Of three Government messengers TO MexiCo
The baltimore Clipper says.
This looks as though our Government
anticipated rupture with Mexico, which is
rendered very pro bable by the latest infor
nation from that country. The tone assn
med by The Mexican authorities has recent
lv become very warlike and threatening, to
which they may have been instigated by
other powers No matter. We stand
ready TO repel by force, whether Mexico
come single handed or aided by others. If
she courts war with the United States, she
will have it to her heaii's content If she
be assisted by a European power, it is not
difficul, TO foresee that tAe war will embrace
all the considerable powers of Europe,
some OF whom are only awaiting an excuse
to strike at each other.
Ii any power has beenso foolish as to
calculate on finding us weak from internal
divisions, il will discover lis mistake
for, however we may differ about local mat
ters there will be perfect unanmity in repel
ling foreign aggressions, and in maintaining
the honor of the country.
Ii Mexico has dared 10 declare war against
us on the grounds assumed in the note Of
Mr.. Bocanegra, and has to stand the result
single handed. she will no! soon be in a
condition 10 offer like insult She is only
preciplaiing fate which would be inevi'a-
bic in time.
