Our RELATIONS WITH MExrco-The Union of
the 7th inst, has some remarks relative to Mexico,
which are made Introductory to an article quoted
from the Nep York Herald, headed" War with
Mexico. What will be the result ~ In that article
we made calculation of the naval and military re-
sources of Mexico, compared with those of the
United States, and concluded by recommending
peculiar kind OF forbearance towards our /" foolish
neighbor." The Union enlarges the scope of pro-
spective glory and success, in case OF rencounter
with Mexico, by saying -
We will remark in addition to the posts on the Gulf
of Mexico which accessible TO troops and our
guns, that the coast of California would lie iuvitingy
open to arms. Commodore Jones has already open
ed the way, and shown how readily Monterey may be
taken The Bay OF st. Francisco is open before US.
There are two parties now In Menco--the one in
favor OF war with the United States for the recovery
OF Texas, for indemnify for the loss OF it, and the
other IN favor OF quieness, submission and peace
The war party Is IN the Observation-Disclosures is Pre-
sdent, and Almonte guides, by his spirit and inte-
gence, the ceunsels OF the new government What
that spirit is, and what those counsels are and will
be, we refer the reader to the leader Of the Nslo
York Herald of the 9th instant, and a letter from
Washington, in another column OF this days paper,
TO ascertain In that article and that letter. he will
find the "utimatum of Mexico" Whoever reads
that ulnmatum, will not be so ready to conclude
that " Monterey is open"-that, in word all
Mexico is ready TO be captured The probability
Is that Mexico will not 60 to war with the United
States, unless she is backed by one or more
European powers
To our remarks, which the Union, with it's usual
courtesy and gentlemanly manner, always credits,
when 1t quotes, there is appended the following
note 49,
There are, however, proper limits to forbearancs"
The writer makes this remark in reference TO the
Hsralds recommendation Of the peculiar kind of
forbearance towards Mexico. Coming from the
organ-although 1t will sometimes walk round the
truth, il is listened TO an oracle By many. whose
very hints are watched and noted in Europe-,b;s
Iitde sentence may be thought very significant. i,
il the government said, by ito organ, eve in
tend TO forbear no longer"
II is true the Herald recommended forbear-
Anoe, but in the form and shape OF hrmness, pru-
dence, determination forbearance OF the mos,
decisive character; for relations with Mexico,
and the results that may spring from them, are OF a
very peculiar nature
