MExrco.--In alusion TO the letter published
few DAYS ago in the American, from gentle
man in Vera Cruz, in which the opinion was ex.
pressed that Mexico would declare war against
the United States, the Union of Friday says:--
1--WE should consider the chances as against
war and yet we are not at liberty to assign our
reasons for this opinion
The inter oosiiion of the British Government,
if its influence with Mexico should be used to
preserve peace, might be e1ectual to that end
But the mingling of,he war question with the
domestic politics Of Mexico, and the use likely tc
be made Of it BY the aspiranis to the Presidency
for purposes of popularity, present perhaps the
greatest difficulty III the way OF a peaceful set
| tlement of affairs between that country and ours

-WoOdstock (W.) Age.
We will try 10 help our perplexed cotem-
porary. A Democratic Republican in Vir-
ginia is one who framed and sticks tot Con-
sttuton which allows rich man TO vote IN
every County where he has property, and
don't allow poor man TO vote at all-and
insists that Counties containing 3.Slhs OF the
Free Population shall govern the whole
State. In New Hampshire lie allows all
white men to vote, but insists that Catholics
and poor Men shall not be allowed to hold
the more responsible Offices. In all the
South, he advocates openly the absolute
eternal subsection of half the Ruman Race
as chatlels TO the will and pleasure Of the
other half, and denounces the Wings as hos
tile 10 the institution In the North, he il
known and boosted Of as the natural ally
of this domestic business. We agree then
with the Age, that "a Democratic Republi
can is black black. bird very black in
deed.
A WHO, on the other hand, is foe o
arbitrary. despotic, irresponsible power
and DEMOCRATIC Wing is, in perfect con
sistency with this, a foe Of the sway Of on

pie. Democratic Republican is tantolog

Mr. STACY "A very painful and contagious
disease, is raging with undated fury in the
town of Starksboro; ant the physicians in at
tendance, have come to the unanimous conclu-
sion that it is the Small Pox. 1t has already in
two cases proved fatal; and there are others in
which recovery is looked upon as very doubt
ful. The village Of that place which contains
thirty or forty dwellings, is one continued pest
house, and there is scarcelya family, which the
disease has not already visited. Fears are en-
teraned that the inhabitants OF the adjoining
towns will share tina same fate, and there are
two cases Of the same disease already in the
town of Hnesburgh. Great efforts certainly
should be made to confne the desease with its
present limits. 1t has already caused great
amount of suffering. anxiety and distress, AMI
unless the most vigiant exertions are made
much more may reasonably be expected.

sympathize with the afflicted of our Starks

occurred between Major Donelson and Presi-

given IN the National Register, published at
