DEAREST interests we're about to be put in peril by
fools and traitors. Would the Northern States con-
sent that slavery should be established in these
new provinces? Certainly not. Then we were to
have at the extreme South Gordon of free States.
What would the present South say to that?
Did not gentlemen see the difficulties which Law
in prospect before us? What was the President
gong to do with these provinces, when he got
them9 This question Of slavery had been met by
our Revolutionary fathers at the time ofthe iorma-
ton OF the Consituon-and, even then, it was one
OF the utmost difficulty. 1t came up again on the
admission Of Missouri, and then it shook the deep
est foundations of this entire Union; nor was the
danger averted but by the efforts of that ustrious
patriot TO whom the country owed 50 much of its
prosperity. Should it be brought up again in this
new iorm, and on so wide scale, he feared it was
destined to produce the wreck of all our hopes

Mr.. u. was against anncXing any part of Mcxi-

AN EXPLOSION OF Sixty KEGS OF PowDER.-
THIS morning, about Ia past o'clock, the city
was alarmed by an explosion which shook the build
ings, and started many persons nom their sleep
A power house, belonging to Mcssrs. Storey,
Wood a. Veder, containing about sixty kegs Of
powder, had been set on fire by some lncendlary.
The building was situated about two and one
half miles from the bridge in this city, near the
idenoe OF l.. C. Eaton, Esq The mansion house
of Mr.. Eaton was much injured, and some Of the
furniture destroyed. The farm house on the estate
was much injured, and the trees and fences blown
down. Providence Transcript, Dee %.
A correspondent of the Providence Gazette thus
writes from Pawtucket, in relation to the above:-
"We had one of the most grand, magnificent,
and ! will add sublime, rhetorical displays this
morning ever Witnessed by Our Oldest inhabitants.
1t took place at 3 IL A. NJ, and was distinctly
seen and felt by the undersigned. The fire was
like that OF a round ball pouring out from the earth.
The explosion was evidently very near, from the
tremendous jarrinI of houses.
This report was seen and distinctly felt by some
thirty or forty fishermen on our river, Just below the
falls, who, strange to tell, but true, caught from
three 10 Jour IONS Of bass.

He believed, himself, that the present war ,cas

people be at any loss to find them. Congress were
bound to examine into them, and every freeman
was bound to do the same

Did this look like repelling invasion? Did it?

fight; no forts to take nothing but wild country
sparsely inhabited. What was this picked regi-

difficulty IN understanding such fact aud all the
aOphistry Of the President in this long message
land what was the whole message but one bundle
Of sophsuy y could never blind their eyes to a
matter so PLAIN and palpabe. The message was
nothing but low demagoglca attempt to deceive
the people to believe lie But he never could
convince people of PLAN common sense that the
war was undertaken for no other object than to
make his own Administration glorious The Pres
ident was writing beneath that scathing question
\"Who is James X. Pok?" And he seemed de-
permned to make every body know who James X.
Polk was and, as it was truly said by a poet
'As fool rush in where angels fear tread"
he had ventured on matters far beyond the Compass
of his powers. He had predecessor much of the
} same stamp, and was seemingly resolved that the
administration of John Tyler should not exceed
hat OF James X. Polk In fact, the last was but
econd edition Of the same thing. THIS WHOLE

LATE AND IMPORTANT FROM MEXICO.
BY STEAMER HAVANA.

The packet ship Norma, Capt. Ellis, arrived at
this port from Havana yesterday, with Mexican
dates several days later than heretofore received
via Vera Cruz, Dec. :, Mexico, Nov. ~, Tampico
Nov. %, and Chihuahua, Oct 20. We are ndebt.
ed to the pollteness of the editors OF the Sun for
slips containing the substance of their private adj
vices.
The war engrosses public attention, and in re-
cordng the efforts making to strengthen Santa An
mas army, the editors and newspaper correspon-
dents generally agree that the last struggle is to
be made at S.n LOUIS Potosi.
Accounts from San Louis praise the discipline
and valor OF the army. There were twenty-five
thousand men with fifty two pieces of artillery
Five thousand additional troops were expected dali
~. he ma s5azlnes of powder and the stores of
balls and other missiles are said TO exceed belief
Every piece of iron that can be found, Is converted
into pixies or other deadly weapons In one store
house alone, there two hundred mechanics
working day ana night, mounting guns and manu-.
featuring munitions Of war. There are five hun
dred more at work in the Publications. which are
being strens thened in every possible manner. One
thousand women, filled with enthusiasm in the ma
tiona cause, had come down TO the camp from San
Diego and Tlascalo, to aid in making articles for
the soldiers.
Santa Anna had grand review of the whole
army on the 18th of November. it is described as
magnificent pageant. So overpowered was he by
the boundess en- husiasn which greeted him as he
passed along the lines, that his feelings overcame
him, and the tears rolled down his swarthy cheeks,
amid The prolongued hazzis Of the various regl-
mens, and cries Of Victory or Death = Sod and
Liberty" "LJng live Santa Anna!" awe will
beat the Yankees this imep &c.
Provisions we're pouring into the camp in i'm
mense quantities. Language is said TO tail in at
tempting description OF the formidable prepara-
lions making at San Louis There was to be the
last great struggle. There, say the newspapers,
will the fate of Mexico be decided, and farther re-
sstance it is said, will he useless. Fears Gu
tertained, however, that there the fortunes OF
war would be against them, and accordingly VIC
find preparations going to defend the road to the
capital. Forts being erected at various points, and
the passes were being strenglhened but these
works do not seem to progress very rapidly.
