United States and Merico. The Wash
ington Union OF Thursday evening,says the
Public Ledger, in publishing the late for
eign news, takes occasion 10 correct some
of the misspprehensions Of the London
Times as to the want Of preparation in the
United Stales for war,which the times con
sidets good opportunity for Mexiro to
take advantage Of in order 10 prevent annex
alton. 1t is amusing TO read these dia,rbes
Of the Lordon papers, and see how llille
they know OF the spirit, enthusiasm sLd
unanimiIy of the American people when
war is talked Of. They have no idea that,
in the United States, every man is soldier
and that every man would be found battling
for his country and his ireside. The Times
lays great stress upon the fact that we have
bu, 1000 troops in the standing army No,
one OF these men can be spared from the
garrisors on the coast, and Of course We
should not have single soldier 10 send to
Mexico! Where then, 1t asks, are we to
obtain the twenty or twenty five ,housanC
nen which would be necessary 10 march t.
Mexico! The answer is furnished by the
Union, and it is worthy of the consideration
Of those who profess to be friends of Mexl
%, and do not wish 10 see the whole o.
that beautiful Country annexed to the u
States. Ii is as follows:-
I.et no, the London Times first blndly
eceve Iscll, and then deceive The Mex
| ans. We should not want twenty FIVE o
twenty thousand men, but ten thousand
men would be sufficient; and such gaIan
anG enterprIslng spirits as the teenlng valley
of the Mississippi could send forth, IN les
than three mon,hs, would be sufficient I,

nough! Why, lie, The United States bu
