WAR PosTroNEp.--A letter from Pensacola
states that the Mexican Congress has adjourned
without formally declaring war against this
country. This, if true, settles the question Of
war, which has been agitating the community for
some months past, and nsures probably perma-
nent peace with Mexico. or at least against any
war arising from annexation. Rumors of formi-
dabe bodies of Mexican troops marching to Tex
as still come from various quarters, but have e.
vIdently the same origin, and are but the echoes
of reports which have already been proved to be
groundless, In addition 10 the want Of the neces-
sary funds, the Mexican Government has to con-
tend with revolution and disoreanizaton in its
own departments. Late accounts from Tobasco
represent that that province has set up the stand.
| ard of revolution aud asserted its independence
! and that the Mexican Government was about to
! finish the revolt by sending army there. We
doubt its ability at present TO attend to this
| revolted province, but it is evident, with such
| adverse influences at work in its own territories
| that il can never, at the same time, carry
war with the United States. Mexico will, nc
doubt, choose the wisest course, and settle hei
difficulties bv negociatou,-Phiia. Ledger,

of the matter, and if Mr.. Cough did unfortunate
ly wander from the fold of Temperance, there is

C The editors of the Mitonian wonld o.
blige us by drawing less upon their own imagl-
nations and relying more upon facts, when speak
ing ofourseves and of matters which they do not
seem properly 10 understand Those whom the
Mltonian charges as the "Sunbury clique took
but little interest part in the formation of the
county ticket. For ourselves, We have always
insisted tha, the voice of the people should be
heard and respected in all things, and that the
majority fairly obtained should always govern.
We do not approve of the unequal distribution of
Offices, we responsible IN this instance.
There are some who are how loudest in their
complaints, who did more TO bring about these
results than those TO whom they lay the blame,
The affected sympathy Of the Mil'onan for the in
terests of the democracy of The Forks, is, how
ever, we'll understood. They will hardly be en-
trapped by so shallow design.

&C Tuos, A. BrLLINGroS.-A writer in the
Mtonian, who signs himself Chilisquaque, seems
10 think that injustice was done 10 James Covert,
because the convention did not nominate him for
Sheriff, and makes an indirect attack upon the
character of Mr.. b, by drawinga comparison be-
tween him and Mr. Covert. We have yet 10 learn
that Mr.. c. is superior in any respect to Mr.
Ellington. The best evidence Of mans charac-
ter, is his standing amongst those who best know
him. Taking this test, Mr.. Ellington has certain
ly nothing TO fear. In six OF the TOWNSHIPS on
this side there We're but two votes poled agains;
him al the delegate election. Out of the TWEEN
tyone delegates from this side nineteen were
| Instructed in his favor. Out Of the fourteen del.
egates in the forks, SIX only were instructed for
Mr., Covert, and four of them for Mr. Ellington
Ii there is any fault in prefeIring Mr.. Ellington
TO Mr.. Covert, let it be attributed to the proper
souIce-,he people.

Smut In Wheat.

A gentleman who resides near the city Of
Washington, and is engaged in agricultural pur-
suits has furnished TO the editors of the National
Intelligencer an interesting communication on
the subject of smut in wheat, portion of which
we annex
81 purchased last autumn of one Of my neigh
bors portion of my seed wheat, which crop
afterwards learned had been injured by that spe-
ciss Of smut that is called uedo fafidd, dust
brand or pepper brand the wheat looked clean
and fine and clear of any foreign mixture. Pre-
vious to commencing the seeding of this grain I
had been seeding some of another kind in which
there was a mixture Of garlic and had given
orders TO my scotsman to pass il through brine
strong enough 10 bear an egg, to skim off all the
trash that might rise to the surface and then re-
move the grain to plank floor and dry it by stir
ring it in air Stacked lime. When he commenced
seeding the wheat that | had bought, finding it
perfectly clean. and supposng that my object in
sleeping the other was to get clear Of filth, with
! ont consulting me he began to SOW it, without the
use of the brine and lime, and had strewed about
! a bushe before discovered it,
AS sOOU dS l fldut tte discovery, l ndu III lrea-
! ted precisely as the other When came TO har-
vest my wheat this season, this circumstance had
! passed from my memory, and | was much sur
! prsed to find that in small corner ofthe field
the smut had destroyed the wheat, while the rest
was completely exempt from it, under pretty
much the same circumstances of soil and expo
sure. should have been exceedingly puzzled to
have assigned cause for this difference in the
crop, had not been reminded by my scotsman
of the fact of his having seeded a portion of un-
doctored wheat the previous autumn and he sta.
ted that it was the spot where the smut exs.
ted that he strewed it, 1t seems to me there can
be no stronger evidence than this accidental cir
cumstance has afforded of the benefit of brnng
and lining our seed wheat and | strongly re.
commend the use of the process to my brother
farmers. Yours, respectfully,
