This basis is love to God and love to man,
we ask no pledges, promises, or confess

union, to advance the highest and best in

print we speak plainly Whist we believe
the interests Of the people require. The
charge that we urge upon Congress the re-
duction Of appropriations for Iowa is un-
founded. We have done no such thing,
and should regret to witness such reduce
ton. We may be mistaken but, judging
from the feeling manifested BY Congress
Upon the subject last winter, we cannot
resist the conviction that Congress will
materially reduce the appropriations for
Iowa, and throw our Judiciary and Legis-
lature upon our hands Tor support. For
seeing this evil We speak Of il in all plain
ness. The snpposition that the Organic
Law Of the Territory win prevent this 10 a
mistakes That law is not compact be-
tween Congress and the Territory, but is
solely and entirely the creation Of Con-
gress, and can, at any time, be altered at
its viii, and without our consent. II is
therefore no protection to US, and we are,
in all respects, at the mercy Of the General
Observation-Disclosures Herald.

York, on the evening Of the 18th, from
Vera Cruz. Although not 90 late a. more
direct accounts, having left on the Sd, and
our dates BY way Of New Orleans being ID
the 9TH, the news ID still Of interest:
Capt. n. reports that the Mexican gov
eminent were making great preparations
for war. Among other things, they had
taken oil the gnns and munitions Of war
out Of the castle of San Juan d. Ulloa, lest
they should fall into the hands Of the Amer
leans!
a large number Of troops had marched
to the frontier Of Texas. The whole force,
when assembled, were to b under The
commend If Gen. Bustamente. They say
the United States are sending troops into
Texas, and that they, tho Mexicans, will
march Ayoxs& 7sras On lteiir psy 70 WssA-
ington, without declaring war.
It was reported at Vera Cruz that the
Mexican Congress had passed the bin au-
thorixing loan Of $1t, OOO, 600. This,
however mnst b mistake, q Vera Cruz
letters Of the 4th and 9th speak Of the bill
~ being aill under discussion, and the
city Of Me1ice papers Of <lse 30th ult. are
to the SAINT effect. But even II the bill
should pass, (Which i not improbable, J il

Since our last we have fallen upon the
following article in the New Orleans Tro-
pic, which confirms us in the opinion that
we have entertained from the first; that
the war and the rumors of war, would,
when closely investigated, turn out TO be
all moonshine. Memphis APPEAL.
The Tropic says:-We learn that yea
sci has arrived at Pensacola from Corpus
Christi, bringing later intelligence from
the army, and that letters which came BY
this conveyance were received here yes
terday from Pensacola. The advices, as
we understand are from an officer Of the
army dated Corpus Christi, 18th inst, and
communicates the gratifying and important
intelligence that 50 far there is no sign Of
hostilities on the part of the Mexicans. II
is stated that a courier, who had been des-
patched by General Taylor to Metamoras
had returned and reported that there were
only 400 Mexican troops in or near that
place. Our troops under the command Of
General Taylor, had all left St. Joseph's
Island, and were encamped on the main
land. They had very pleasant camping
ground with delightful breeze continual
ly prevailing and were in fine health and
spirits, with no enemy near to them and
no sign or expectation Of any
The Courier of last evening publishes
an extract Of letter from an officer of the
I'd Dragons dated "Nacogdoches, July
3lst," which states that the seven compa-
MES Of that Regiment, under the command
Of Col. Twiggs arrived there on that day,
after six days march from Fort Jesup.
They were to leave on the rext day for

service when we reached the disputed

We lay before our readers to-day an Of
fetal Abatement Of the vote at the recent
election for Delegate to Congress, and for
and sgainst tho Constitution. Il win Be-
seen, that Gen. Dodge's majority Is eight
hundred and thiry-one; result, not ma
terislly different from our calculation, made
up from the reported vote. The friends Of
Gen. D. may well look upon il - victory
Of which they may boast. Previous to the
nomination by the Democratic Convention
the wing press throughout the Territory
commenced an attack upon him, and sue
ceeded in some degree, in producing split
in the Democratic party. They seem t.
have calculated largely upon the dissatis.
faction among <hs Democrats but SO far a,
any benefit to themselves was concerned
they calculated without their host. tn.
people Of this Territory have shown by
this vote, their entire appreciation Of tn,
course pursued by their Delegate.
The majority against the Constitution i,
somewhat larger than we anticipated, bu
this we do not consider important since d,
constitution is lost. The loss Of the consti
tuition we look upon as very great mis-
fortune, but since It is the will Of ! majority
we will not complain.

Terrible Accident

Bursting Of tie Gasometsr al the Prossstenl
Methodist Church. &reyal persons bad
" burnt.
Last evening about eight o'clock, ter
rible accident took place in Allegheny.
The new Protestant Methodist Church IN
that city, Is lighted with gas, manufactured
on the premises. Something had gone
wrong with the apparatus, and several
members Of the congregation had assem-
bled for the purpose Of repairing it.
While they were in the. act Of raising the
Gasometer out Of the water, supposing il
to be empty, bat which was mistake, The
gas ignited from a candle, burst the gas.
ometer with loud report, and Get FIRE tc
the Gas House. The FIRE was quickly
subdued BY the Uncle Sam, which speed.
~ arrived on the ground. But the mel.
ancholy part is, the severely burning d
several Of the persons present The
names, as far az We were able to ascer.
tain them in the midst Of the confusion
are as follows:
Mr.. Heron, the Sexton, very badly
burnt, not expected to live; enc repor,
says he is dead.
Mr.. Brown, a pedlar, living on til,
Butler road, badly burnt, supposed 10 b
dangerous.
VIM. Harms, Esq, Postmaster at ALE
gheny, badly burnt, but thought not to b
dangerously injured.
Mr.: James Russell, Carpenter, had hi,
head badly cut, and il supposed to b
dangerously burnt.
Mr.. Issler, very badly burnt, supposed
to be dangerous.
Mr.. Henry Williams, grocer, slightly
burnt.
The distress and confusion was 20 great
in the neigborhood, thst We found it diff
cult to obtain accurate intelligence. The
report Of the explosion alarmed the whole
neighborhood, and the light was very bril-
liant. The main body Of the church ID
not injured.
The Pittsburg Post Of Friday last, says
that Matthew Eyster and Mr.. Russell,
have both died from their wounds, and
that Mr.. Brown il now believed to Be in
much more dangerous situation than FIRST
supposed. VIM. Harms, Esq, though
somewhat better, is, we are sorry to learn,
not entirely out Of danger.

The editor Of the Hawkeye still insists
there is prospect for the ful6lment of his
promise, that Mr.. Clarke may yet be APP
pointed Governor Of Iowa. In his last ar
ticle on this subject he is much more compli-
mentary thaa usual, and if it were not for
the inverse operation Of his recommends
tons We might hope for some good from
them; as It's, wethank him for his good in
tentions.
