doubtful and exciting way much longer, il will be
almost impossible 10 prevent an expedition from be-
ing formed in the South Western States TO cross the
Rio Grande, and go direct 10 Mexico itself Sixty
thousand could easily be collected in the South
West who would desire nothing better than such
toray, and who would very speedily effect the an
nexaton OF Mexico The war spirit is increasing
IN the west with fearful rapidlty, and as we have
Just ntimated, we should not be at all surprised TO
see a volunteer expedition start against Mexico, de-
spite OF the authority opposition of the govern
ment at Washington. A strange spirit has broken
out, and who can say what may be the issuel
SUFFERINGs OF THE COURIER AND ENouIRKR."-
The Courier Of yesterday complains most bitterly OF
the immense success ofthe Herald ob-printng es-
enlistment With tears in its eyes-for once not at
all hypocrtlcal-the Courier expresses It's poignant
regret at the astounding fact that we execute the
printing of all the principal theatres in the city The
lnvectve and abuse poured out against us by our
decent and sober contemporary, may be readily ina
glned by those acquainted with the temper and cha
racter Gifts conductor 1t says that the Herald is
owned and conducted by g foreigners" The truth
is the Herald is good deal more of an American
paper than this same Courier. During the last four
printers alone-al natives and indeed there are in
this office more natives than foreigners We have
every reason indeed tobeeve that in the Courier Of
flee there foreigners than in the Heraidotice
As to the proprietor of this journal being an unna
turalzed foreigner" il is only necessary to state
that he owns real estate in this cty and if the editor
O. the Courier will just inspect certain documents in
the public archives at Albany he will find that he
has been telling falsehoods.
As to the printing of the Park Theatre the whole
business was arranged when the proprietor of the
Herald was out of town, travelling in Pennsylvania
asst summer. He knew nothing o. ii till il was all
arranged, and no pledge whatever was either soi-
cited by The Park management, or given our part,
that the Park would be noticed in any way. 1t Is
false that the printing of the Park was taken from
any ''worthy mechanic" On the death of the per-
son who had formerly executed 1t, the Park manage
ment obtained from number of printers proposals
do its printing, and gave 1t TO that establshme
which could do 1t in the best and most satisfactory
style, to wit, the Herald job printing establishment
The Courier, may add, has behaved in a very
ungenerous and unworthy manner with reference 10
the places of amusement in the city Ii gave no no.
tce OF Macready, except his farewell speech-no
notices OF Anderson, the operas, o. anything at the
Park; but marvellous to relate the Park was no.,
absolutely ruined by this neglect. AT the same time
the Courier was giving long editorial notices of the
Bowery Theatre and Circus because their bills were
printed at its job office These also have since been
discontinued.
As 10 the morals and the talent employed on this
paper, the American people the best Judge. And
that Judgment has not been withheld During the
last five years, since the "mora war; against US
has commenced by the Courier and Enquirer the
circulation of the Herald has more than doubled,
whilst in the same time the Courier circulation has
diminished one-third. That is clear enough proof
of the sentiments entertained by the people
with regard TO the two journals. And as TO the
abuse of the newspaper press of this country by the
foreign periodicals that the Courier talks about does
not the blockhead recolect that il was from his own
columns the greater portion of the extracts were
taken, by which it attempted to convict the
newspaper press OF the United States of all sorts Of
crimes and delinquencies
All the complaints and grievngs and heartburn
ings and troubles which annoy the Courier and
Enquirer with regard both to the Herald and Tn
btne and the cash press generally, are not without
their meaning. The Courier and Enquirer and
other large papers OF that vicinity their destiny
Their day is drawing rapidly to a close. A revolu-
ton is going on in the newspaper press which will
never stop till they are consigned to the tombs OF
all the Capulets. Three-fourths of these lazy lum-
berng. behlnd-the-age affairs have already gone the
way of all flesh, and their ghosts, from the dreary
realms of oblivion, chanting in the ears of the
Courier and the other survivors,
Come away away !"
Inc system OF enterprise, Independence, skill and
talent introduced into the newspaper business BY
the Herald, has been successfully taken up by many
OF our contemporaries, such as the Tribune and
others, and its operation will never cease. until
every journal, like the Courier g. ENQUIRER be ron-
ed out OF existence, and driven from the field Of
action Hinc iH9 iachryma. To add another pane
TO the Courier let us tell il that the Herald ob.prin,
ng office has the printing of four OF the principal
theatres in New York, besides variety Of regular
ob-work OF all descriptions, greater in fact than !,
can accomplish without the utmost exertlon On
the other hand, the Courier office is losing its bust
ness every day.
Such, it will be seen, is satisfactory evidence o.
the opinion entertained by the American people
relative to both Of these ustrious and far-famed
prints-the Courier & Enquirer, and the New York
Herald.
The ART OF ORAToRY Mr. Maturin, a gentle
man OF great experience as teacher of eIocuton.

papers, announces his intention of opening classes

academies. We very cordially welcome the sd-
