EXPENSES or THE MEXICAN WAR.

When the present war with Mexico com
menced, we believe that there were in reality,
but comparatively few people, who ''counted
the cost" II was all glory" and very Lutte
attention paid 10 any thing else. The result
will prove useful lesson. A letter from New
Orleans published inthe National lntelligencer,
says, that ''the expense with which this war
is carried on is truly enormous Before the
summer is over, there will probably have boon
from one or two millions Of dollars paid for
the purchase to employment or steam vessels.
customary charter ior a steamboat 10 run
down from N. Orleans with troops and stores
is seven TO eight thousand dollars, and they
have recently been paying the same for sailing
shipsas transports, each taking from two hum
dred to three hundred and fifty men. Gen.
lTAyLoR, learn, has made requison for
twenty four steamboats,, Of which twelve or
fifteen are already purchased. The expenses

cur with me in thinking that the proposition
which have prepared as an amendment 70
the pending bill is suited 70 The present condl-
ton Of the country, and viii probably be ac-
ceptahle. under the circumstances, TO those
concerned IN all the great domestic and indus
trial pursuits. or nj least that they can I've
under IL My own Judgments entirely clear
and satisfied on thesubiect This amendment
neither attacks nor ahaudons the principles or
the policy Of The act Of 1912 On the contrary,
tre,ains all the principles OF that important law
and maintains It's whole policy. Its true il pro-
poses large reduction on the higher rates Of
duties iopose1 BY that law. Those high rates
Were deemed essential when that law passed,
as al that time all the great industrial interests
Q! the country Were depressed and Frustrated.
Under the benign influence OF that law
these interests have revived, and atiainet to-
such degree Of susngth rs e justify the hope
that, with strict economy and by the progress
Of improvement, they NAV be able to sustain
themselves with reduced degree Of protection
Bot this hope is very much founded on the
idea. that. il what is proposed be now done,
!, shall be considered as an arrangement which
is 10 be durable. and which shall relieve men
engaged in these pursuits from the evils Of
constant uncertainty and apprehension.
But cannot say, gentlemen, whether |

consulted, III should find among them the
prevalence of such sentiments as entertain
myself, shall bring the amendment forward.
especially il il should appear that the very ex-
traordinary and dangerous measure now be-
fore the Senate is likely to become law. To
the success ol a great movement OF this sort,
union Of purpose and harmony Of action are es-
sentiai. Without reasonable expectation that
such union and harmony may be produced IN
a considerable degree among the friends OF the
present law and the existing policy ofthe coun-
Try, il would be imprudent 10 submit the pro-
position to the Senate.

BY P. p. COOKE, OF VA.
Six changeful years are gone, Lily,
Since you were born, 10 be
A darling to your mother good,
A happiness TO me.
A little sbivering feeble thing
You Were to touch and view,
But we could see promise in
Your baby eyes Of blue
You fastened ON our hearts, Lily,
As day by day wore by,
And beauty grew upon your cheek,
And deepened in your eye;
A year made dimples in your hands
And plump your little feet,
And you had learned some merry ways
Which we thought were sweet.
And when the first sweet word, Lily,
Your wee mouth learned TO say,
Your mother kissed ii fifty times,
And marked the famous day;
| know not even now, my dear,
If it were quite word,
But your proud mother surely knew,
For she the sound had heard.
When YOU We're four years old, Lily,
You were my little friend,
And we had walks and nightly plays,
And talks without an end.
You little ones are sometimes wise,
For you are indebted
A grave grown man will start to hear
The strange words OF child.
When care pressed on our house, Lily,
Pressed with an iron hand,
| hated mankind for the wrong
Which iestered in the land
But when ] read your young, frank face
Its meanings sweet and good,
Ny charities grew clear again
felt my brotherhood.
And sometimes it would be, Lily,
NV faith in God grew cold,
For saw virtue go in rags,
And vice in cloth of gold
But in your innocence, my child,
And in your mothers love,
learned those lessons of the heart
Which lasten II above.
At last our cares are gone, Lily,
And peace is back again,
As YOU have seen the sun shine out
After the gloomy rain;
In the good land where we were born.
We may be happy still,
A life of love will bless our homo
The House upon the Hill.
Thanks be to your gentle face, Lily,
Its innocence was strong
To keep me constant to the right,
When tempted by the wrong.
The little ones were dear 10 Him,
Who died upon the rood,
ask His gentle care for you
And for your mother good.
