James vi. Power,

The nomination OF Mr. Power, we are grati-
fed TO learn, is well received in every part OF
The State, and The prospects of his election are
by no means discouraging. Ii is true iha, Mr..
Foster, his opponent, can command The army Of
office holders and state hands on our public i'm
provemen,s, together with the influence OF His
Excellency, Frs. r. Skunk, and his very able
and popular Administration, in his behalf and so
enjoys a very great advantage in the contest;
but then, thank fortune, these compose bu, a
minority of The voters of the Common ealth,
and there are still enough of honest Geemen
left TO elect Mr.. Power if they will but do their
duy.
by the way, the present contest does moi
seem likely to assume very rigid party aspect.
The honest and thinking men Of all parties
seem to be fast falling into the opinion hal r E.
FORM in the management Of our public works
is needed, and that the only way to effect il is
TO divide The Board in politics, instead Of ma
king i, exclusively Locofoco. We have heard
several very respectable members of The oppo-
site party talk in this way our SELF aud we
may now say, that unless something 'raaspires
between this time and the election TO change
the curren, of public feeling B'ar county will
tell no unfavorable story for James NJ Power.

The ST. Louis New Era says:--"We learn

Mormons are moving very fast from Nau-
700. Several hundreds are encamped oB the

vehicles Of every description, good and bad, are
in great demand there. Il seems TO be the
general impression in the vicinity that most Of
The deIuded followers of Smith will remove
from The Holy City by the lst of may. This
is well for all parties concerned, and may save
vast amount of trouble. and even perhaps, a

The Tariff.

The course which the friends ofihe Admins
ualion in Congress are likely TO take on The
subject of the Tariff appears TO be involved
just now in some uncertainty. We find the
following paragraph in recen, letter of 'Ol-
liver OidschooF to The U. S. Gazette:
81 find much difference of opinion as to the
prospect of the tariff being disturbed. There
are those who would be glad 10 avoid a vote
upon the subject, who desire things 10 remain
as they are, bu, who will feel compelled by
party considerations TO vote for new bill, if
obliged TO vote at all. There seems TO be more
disposition in the different cliques or factions
in the Senate 10 unite, than there was. The
difference on the subject of Oregon, which
threatened 10 be permanent will probably soon
be forgotten, and those who were temporarily
estranged will seek opportunities to unite, with
the view of resoring former good feeling.
The Wings should never calculate on the per-
manent division of their opponents for those
divisions are healed with wonderful facility,
by sor, of first intention" principle The
cohesive power of public plumber. which Mr.
Calhoun once ,ruthlnlly and forcibly remarked
bound ,ha. party together, has los, none of its
force since he went back TO those of whom he
thus spoke"

circumstances OF political nature, and The dis
turbed state of the country prevented it, and
on December "a, he was refused reception,

Mexican affairs. Mr.. Sidell was again in
s,ructed to present his credentials, which were
again refused.
The forces were kept at Corpus Christi until it
was known Mexico would not recognize our Min

Del Norte in 1886; and the troops were ordered
there on account of the convenience of carrying
provisions and obtaining supplies. Ampudia no.
titled Gen. Taylor on the 10th of April, to retire
in "a hours notice, and again Arista on the Oath
notified him that he considered hostilities as actu-
ally commenced.
Hence ensued the difficulties now before the
public. Gen. Taylor in his present position has
called on Texas for four regiments and on Louis
lana for four more. In this state of affairs the
President invokes Congress TO recognize a war,
and recommends that authority be delegated to
him to call into requsition large body of volun-
teers for twelve months, and that liberal provisions
be made to enable him to procure supplies, &c.
In the Senate, after the message was read, a
sharp discussion was proceeding when our tele-
graphic despatch was closed.
Mr.. Calhoun took the floor and argued that the
position assumed by the President, that there was
state of war, was incorrect; no such state exist
ed according to its sense as implied by the Con-
stituton. A collision, it was true, had taken
place, and it was for Congress to decide whether
that collision was Of such character as to usti-
fly Congress, the only party efficient to declare
war, in taking such step.
The House of Representatives had before it a
bill for raising volunteers and supplies, and a
large appropriation. Upon this an animated dis
cusson ensued and it was the determination TO

Exnenses of fine War.

1his Is d subject which has been fruit ful theme for editorial comment. We have not reviewed Uncle Sam's le,lger very close ly ourselves; but to the charge that the war IS Fainously expensive, we find the follow ing counter statement in the letter of the Washington correspondent of the N I ork Herald:
 There have of late been some most un- reasonable and excessively high estimates of the expenses of 'slhe existing war with Mexi- eos" as given in the public jourpM. The debt created thus far Is littlS or nothing. No debt has been or will be incurred for arms CT munitions. The magazine at ths city alone contains powder enough tor the materials for its manufactured for ten years war with Mexico, with cannon and balls sufficient to batter down the peak nf Orixaba alter sazee- ing the castle at Vera Cruz There are arms enough on hand at the various depots to equip a million of soldiers, and munitions sufficient for long campaign for that vast body of troops. in this respect at least, we would have been found ready for war with Great Britain, if not in respect to frigateS and steamers
 1 The lead, from tolls of the public mineral lanrls, has promised an ample supply for a hundred thousand men, in hard fighting, for five years campaign. The old woman, m counting the cost of a Christmas pudding, allowed so much for raisins, so much for eggs. so much for sue. and butter, but noih- ing for the flour, because, said she, s.we had that.n Upon tisis plan, we may very pro- l peily count upon so many millions for trans por,atiop of men and supplies, and for pur- chase of wagons, steamboals, transports. bat teaux, barges, harness, packsaddies, mules, horses, cattle, -four, beef, pork, whiskey, ,cof- | fee. .ea, sugar, medicines, boxes, barrels, tents and tent poles, clothing, pontons and poiItoniers, pay of volunteers, and increase of regulars, axes, msttocks, s.ioyeIs. pots and pans, hospitals, for.s, depots, sia,ians, fuel, i. &c., but In the important articles of bombs. guns, drums, morsafs. cannon and cannon carriages, maskels, rifles, cutlasses, and carl ridges, grape-shoi, rockets, powder and ball, no expense Is incurred, because we had them already. We may say the same of the sqaad- roas in the Pacific and in the Gnif. We had them, and ba, little expense has been added to the peace establishment, in the Mexican blockade.
 We assume, therefore, that the extraordi- nary expense of the existing war, from the passage in May last of ihe biAs declaring ifs existence, for the six mouths ending witf, the present October, will fall short of the Slo,- COG, ,00O sppxoprialed by that bill, as the fel- lowing rSnkh Estimate Tor 20.0o0 additional
