THE MEXICAN WAR.

The Mexican Minister notified our Government
last fall that the annexation Of Texas to this coun
try would be regarded by hexico a declaration Of
war. The lntegencer, which, if it had been The

have manifested greater zeal than has appeared in its
columns since the declaration made by the Minister
has reiterated again and again the same enforcing it
at the same time, with its own arguments MIR. Ben
ton both in and out Of the Senate, has laid great
stress this declaration and made il the foundation
of the most vehement and vndictve assaults on the
President.
But how has Santa Anna and the Mexican Gov
eminent regarded the action of our Government in
relation to the annexation of Texas We allude TO
their actions-not to their words. Why, al the very
time il was known in Mexico that The treaty was I'M
der considera ion in the Senate and when it was al
together uncertain whether il would or would not be
ratified by that body, the Mexican Government sent
their Two men-of-war steamers, which cost more
than a million of dollars, TO this country TO be re
paired This too, subsequently TO the declarations
made by Senior Bocanegra, the Minister Of Foreign
Affairs, through the Minister in this country, that

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD -

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
SIR In order to remove erroneous impress
sion, as to the nature of the application made in
behalf of the New York and Albany Railroad
Company for assistance from the Common Coun-
Gil, permit me to state that the memorial simply
asked for conditional and contingent subscrip-
ton OF million OF dollars to the capital stock of
the Company, payable twelve months after the road
should be ready for use. twill be thus perceived,
by this proposition, neither money, stock nor bonds
were required, and that direct responsibility
could attach to the city government until after IA
valuable property had been created, and not then,
terest.
1t has been ascertained, with such an arrange
ment the Company could easily fill up the residue
of the unsubscribed capital, and without delay or
interruption, proceed to the completion oftheir val
uable enterprise, the of which is OF vital
Importance to the future prosperity OF the whole
community, especially, as the road of the Compa-
ny would render tributary to our city the incacu-
liable of fifteen hundred miles of neigh
boring railroads
| have, also, to remark that the memorial does
not contain the ant-repubhcan notion OF removing
the final Judgment of the question of patronage to
any other tribunal than the constituted authorities
of the city, and 1t may well be doubted, whether
our contemporaries ought not to be extremely eau
tious how they countenance the introduction of
any but responsible representative power In
my estimatian, appeal 10 popular prejudice,
through the ballot box, such subjects, would es-
tabsh baneful precedent, to the jeopardy of law,
order and the security OF private rights; in the
course of a short perlod should find that leglti-
mate government had lost It's conservative innu-
ence. ALEXANDER HAMILTON, President.
