THE MEXICAN INDEMNITY.

From a private letter, (says the New
Yoyk Erpress,) dated Mexico, July 10th,
IS45, received by gentleman in tins clly,
we derive information that on the 3lst Il
motion was made IN Congress to call ON the
Secretary Of the Treasury for a written
report on the subject Of the payment of The
two missing lnstalmen,s OF indemnify,
which produced very animated and
lengthy discussion. Mr.. Trigueros, the
late Secretary Of the Treasury, and Mr.
Voss, the agent of the United States, were
handled most unceremonlousv and the
cx. Minister of the United States, Mr..
Shannon, was likewise subjected to some
critical remarks. The motion was finally
carrlcd by vote of ~ 10 2G, and we are
now likely to get in possession Of all the
leading facts in this mysterious affair.

In 1912, L. c. Taylor, E.q., Of Phla.
delphia, made report Of these mines,
(Which is embodied in the article IN Hunt )
Magazine in which it is stated that Al
tie forty feet level, The yield Of The ore,
when dressed, was abou, 50 per ceut. OF
lead, and from 30 to 100 ounces Of silver
to the ton Of lead. The value Of the s.l.
yer varied from 8 50 to 81 50 per ounce,
It's price being enhanced by the large pro-
portion Of gold found IN Combination 8ith
Il, a! this depth.
At the sixty feet level the ore increased
in richness, but was irregular in is value.
4 lis best and most remarkable point, it
Yielded as much as 5000 ounces to The
ton. Su,A points were, however, few and
small, .,rning exceptions to the prevailing
richness oC the lode. The genera aver.
age is stated to be l26 ounces Of silver TO
The ton Of metal. Here the sulphuret Of
lead, or gaena, was first met with, in
small quantities bat the bulk Of the ore
continued similar to the forty feet level,
being cor Donate Of lead, with The excep-
,ion Of the proportion Of The gold which
gradually diminished, but was recovered
again al the 100 feet level
Arriving al the hundred feet lereI, the
galena predominated but 10 other respects
the mine presented the same aspect as at
the so feet increasing in regularity.
At one hundred and sixty feet level the
vein is nearly oil suIpheTet as regards the
lead, and the area is enlarged. 1t vas
estimated that this argentiferous ore local
" termed "the black ore" producied on
an average from S57 so to 500 per ton
10 equal proportions as to the value Of the

in such overwhelming guilt and disgrace
Why In the name Of humanity does he not
cleanse his hands from the crimson staini-
why does he suffer them to drip with human
gore, impressiny their bloody imprint upon
all they touchl Why does he not wash in
the Jordan OF Dissolution Is the remedy so
simple that he will not try it! Better, far
better, TO wash and be cleansel, than pro.
claim to thu world that his hands are clotted
and dripping with blood, and that he still
continues to hold political fellowship with
the murderers who have persuaded him to aid
them in their work.
But we are glad he declares, that in the
event of the annexation of Texas, he should
consider the Union dissolved, and a new one
formed with which the North should nave no
connection. 1t would be more consistent for
him to refuse to support the Constitution, but
if he cannot see it his duty so to do, but
should go to Washington, we hope to hear
of his return in the event of annexation, and
his faithful advocacy Of out and out Disunion
doctrine, and opposition to the aiominable
sentiment ''Slavery in or Slavery out, Tex
as in or Texas out, the Union, the Union for
ever"
We designed saying more about this let

we leave it with our readers to separate the
true from the false, to retain the wheat, and

NORTH AND SOUTH.

The Augusta (Geo.) Chronicle makes the
following amusing summary of the means
which the North furnishes to the South, and
which our Southern neighbors are almost en-
tirely dependent upon the North for:
They build our houses, they adoru them
with furniture, and supply them with every
comfort a d convenience Of which we have
ever coujectured. They educate our chill
dren, and cover our uakeduess fiom head to
foot, with hats and shoes, coats and shirts
we eat their flour, cheese, butter, apples,
goldfish, potatoes, pickles, pork and onious-
we feed our cattle with their hay. drive their
horses In their harness to their carriages,
with their whips-we walk with their stit ks,
ride on their saddles, write on their paper,
wash with their soap, scrub with their brush
es, sweep with their brooms, milk ia their
pals, cook III their pots, strike with their
hammers, blow with their bellows, cut with
their axes, sow with their seed, reap with
their hooks, pull with their leather, white
wash with their lime, paint with their paint,
march by their tunes, read by their lights,
drink their Congress water and rum, smoke
their segars-aud last aud best OF these
blessings, we marry their pretty girls, who
make the best Of wIves."
The above summary is incomplete; let Us
see if we caunot add something which the
Chronicle has modestly omitted.
The north plat our slave whips, make our
plantation branding irons, and forge the fet-
tiers which we fasten upon women. They
sell us rifles with which to shoe, runaway
slaves, manufacture our Bowie-knivcs aud
inscribe upon them ''Deah 10 GJoiiAiOn."-
They arc the watch-dogs shat guard GU.

pulpit, take communion with our women

and to save our reputation make God a Slave

least to be d~eplored We give them, wha

dear friend. Edward Abby stood up like a
true man, SO too did George Thompson and
poured out his eloquent and scathing rebukes
upon the guilty oppressor. The aristocrats
Of this country tried to %cajole and datter
Lord Morpeth into their service, but Lord as
he is, he was above the influence of their
petty skin-deep aristocracy and remained
steadfast in his hatred Of chattelism. Har-
riet Martlneau is another Of the faithful few,
and this is the more remarkable as she is a
great authoress as every body knows, and
exceedingly popular, but she preferred prin-
ciple to popularity, and laid her worldwide
reputation upon the alter of humanity. But
these are about all the English visitors of
note that we know of, who were abolition
lists on both sides of the Atlantic. Cox,
Hoby, Reid, Mattheson, Quincy and all
others who have come on a religious mission,
have found their principles too weak to stand
before the terrible power of the despotic
ruler Of this country.

The unexpected arrival, Sept. IL, at Liv-

STARTLING FACTS!

There are every year born in a certain Sec
ton of this country, from one hundred, to
one hundred ard fifty thousand illegitimatc
children; many Of them being the offspring
Of church members, class leaders, and
preachers!
There are also in the am, neighborhood,
from one to two hundred thousand church
members who arc living as husbands and
wives who nave not been united by any le-
gal marriage s~ervice-some Of these are
preachers!
In the same place there are many men who
take unto themselves a end, a 3rd, or a 18th
wife while the LIST Is living; and who con-
tinue to be regarded by their religious socie-
ties as good christians, and the act defended
as a christian act!
There is in this land a great Brothel
which contains over a million Of inmates
who by its regulations are not permitted to
leave their mode of life and lead one in con-
fornity with the principles of purity!
We have hundreds Of flthers-mpn who
are regarded as respectible-who sell theil
daughters to the keeper of this house, aud
live upon the price of their prostitution!
Those who desire a key by which they
may explain the existence Of the above facts
will find it in the single word-SLAVERY.
