INDIA RUBBER BRfDGE THE USE THE ARMY.
An order has been given for the construction of
India Rubber Bridge for tic of the Army in Next
co. A similar bridge invented some time ago,
used during the Greek war in Alabama years
ago. The following is description Of it,
1t consists of large bags, pontons, something
like cotton bags in shape, made of India rubber cloth,
which being filled with air and attached literally to-
gether, formed bridge of fourteen feet in width and
of any lenE'b according TO the number of bags used
upon these laid light timber to support boards
placed aierally, which forming smooth level sur
face, admitted the passage of wagons horses, &c.
detachment Of six hundred men, with all their arms
and accoutrements including the field officers mounted
upor horses marched on it once, and often remain
ed quarter of an hour in going through the evolu-
tons its strength they courIter-marched with
as much facility as if on terra rma. Field pieces
with their complement of mattresses, and their cals-
sons filed with ammunition, and loaded wagons
also driven 1t with the same Ii was said.
that troop of horse arriving at night at a river
where this bridge was and seeing it stretched
the stream crossed upon under the impression that
it was a common bridge. The great advantage of
this bridge is its poftableness, all the pontons and
cordage for bridge Of three hundred and fifty feet
being capable of transportation in a single wagon
whereas. the former ponton equpPages consisted OF
cumbrous and bulky pontons Of wood, sheet-iron aud

feel proud of my country and of tie character of
its little army here. Its conduct during the battles OF
the 9Th and 9th ult., and since the taking of Matamo
ras, is beyond all praise-crediable alike TO ITSELF
our country, and the commanding general.
when we recoect the overbearing insolence of
Arista Ampudia and Mejia-thc harrassing attacks
upon little attachments, and the savage murders
pepetrated by their authority, hardly prepared
for the sublime spectacle of aggravated but vcto
riOus army, repaying all the unprovOked evils which
it had long and patiently endured; by voluntary
of active and benevolent kindness. Yet, after
fatigung march under tropical sun, when darkness
had suspended murderous action of four hours /;
there, upon the blood-drenched plain of Palo Alto.
fcarfully Illuminated by burning prairie, might be
seen American soldiers, suRReEless and exhausted.
busily ranging the scene of strife, picking up
and relieving the wants of wounded enemies, carrying
to the hospital stations all the badly mutated and
freely surrendering to their use, blankets and great
coats, their only protection against tic drenchng
dews of the prairie.
And again. after the brief but fierce encounter at Re-
SAGA de Ia Palma we find our soldiers actively employed
sheltered and their dead buried, while not corsa
was profaned by the poluting touch of the vulture
Gain As our enemies fell, were they buried.
In the city of Matamoras not an outrage has becii
committed conquerers and conquered mlngle bal
moniously together, mutually respecting the rights
and feelings of each other The trade of the place IL
reyivng the confidence of the people is secured and
now may daily be heard in the streets of this once
loyal city, the loud cry-"Q vivian los soldadoa

MEXICAN Government AND MATAMoRAs.-It has
been officially announced to the people of Matamoras,
by the Mexican government, that all persons who
may have communication with the American forces,
and all persons who may have communication with
those persons communicating with the American
forces will be denounced traitors, and treated
cordingly. This last surprising Remuneration is so
general its character, and throws open the door OF
oppression so wide to the different revolutionary
leaders constantly sprngng up in the country, that
even the stoid Mexicans Of Matamoras are somewhat
alarmed at the result. Since Gen. Taylor took pos
session of this city, private property and all civil
rights have been protected--a thing never before
known in Matamoras. The consequence has been,
that the inhabitants that have remained have gradually
gained confidence and gone about their business, and
necessarily had intercourse with the "Amcrlcan for
ces" and therefore under the ban If the decree
received from the head of the Mexican government.
II is also decrced" that ali foreign merchants
trading in Matamoras, should leave the place within
a certain time have their goods conlscated. This
decree is supposed to be sent out as preparatory
to conscaon, tho merchants have their depots Of
goods throughout the whole of Temaulpas. The
consequences Of such oppressive DEGREES may we'll be
conceived; they calculated to drive the people Of
this department entirely from any connccion it'll tle
central government.
Ii is runcrej, upon what appears TO be good au-
thory, that Gen. Ampuda is pressing into his army
all the inhabitants Of the courtry about Monterey,
taking old and young indscriminately. not to
to this place, but defend the passes Of the
tans from the approach Of our army.-N 0. Tegic,

The EyGLIsH pREss on THE VALUE OF REPUB-
LIcAN INsrIrUrIoNs.-The London Weekly Despatch
of the 3lst ut, after comparing our for going
to war with Mexico those assigned by the wolf Tor
going with the lamb, goes to remark as fol-
lows
1--WE may differ as to the of the war but
that $4,000 citizens should be ready at once to adj
vance to the frontier at the peril Of life aud the aoan-
donmcnt of all other occupations, in cause which
they at all events hold to be just proof Of the tfe-
mendous strength and value of populas institutions,
and obvious example for the right of preserving
national security. The number OF volunteers was
expected far to exceed the limit voted. Mexico will
ultimately be match for its foe, either by sea OF
land, and it is therefore consoatoy that President
Polk should declare that he viii always be ready Il
offer accept terms Of pence

TEA AND CoFFEE.-The question of subecting these
articles to duty is to be governed entirely by public
convenience. When there is ample revenue from
other sources it is we'll enough to have these articles
free, because they enter into the consumption of
almost every family high and low, rich and poor.
They not used exclusively, or almost exclusively
by persons in moderate circumstances is the case
with sundry articles subject to extravagant duties
under the existing Tarif,-yet the latter excite no
misgivings in the minds of men who are camorous
against duties tea and Coffee as oppressive to the
poor 1t is not difficult to comprehend the height,
depth, and length of this regard for the poor, re-
markably sensitive in certain circumstances, and so
obduratey insensible in others.
While our revenue was equal 10 our expenditures,
we were quite willing that tea and coffee should be
imported duty Free But now that the occurrence of
war renders additional revenue necessary,-all the
revenue, fact that be raised, without resortng
to direct taxation,-the is clear that tea and
coffee should pay duty In common with every thing
else. The whole Tariff, general rule should be
so graduated to produce the highest Ar
tcles now free, with the exception OF specie and
few other commodities about which there is some Pc
culiariiy which marks them exceptions, should be
charged with duty; duties too low to produce the
highest aggregate revenue should be raised; while
those so high 10 amount to prohibition, or nearly
So should be reduced to the revenue standard. In
Short Tariff for revenue is what the circumstances
OF the country demand, and for revenue only.
There is no need of looking at any other interest.
For, in graduating the rates of duties to produce
the highest revenue, shall as matter of course
protect" if that word must be used, those articles
of home manufacture which come in competition with
imported articles. This is the luck, not the right, of
the persons engaged in manufacturing those incident
ally protected articles. They have no more right TO
be protected, than any other class of citizens.
When the country requires more revenue than can
possibly be raised by the duty imports the sales of
public lands, and all other except direct tax
aton then to resist the laying of duties upon tea and
coffee is either to demand direct taxation to call
for ncedessly large increase of the national debt
There is no escape from this alternative. The pa
triotism of the people ought to make them willing If
the exigencies of the country require it, TO pay
direct taxes; much more the small pittance which
would result from a duty of 20 per cent. on tea and
coffee The man that opposes this duty the ground
of its being oppressive, reveals the of his
patriotism too distinctly to require further remark.
Our fathers pledged their lives their fortunes, and
their sacred honor" for their beloved country. This
man shrugs his shoulders and looks at the pay
ment of % cents.-.ournal of Commerce

THE Four GENERALs-It is little more than a
month since the commencement of the present war,
yet that short space of time, less than four OF
our generals have succeeded in Distinguishing them
selves. One has suddenly emerged from comparative
obscurty, to be hailed as the first military leader in
America. second has succeeded In demollshng
the fabric of u fame little less glorious; third has
rendered himself liable to blame from the government,
although not from the people, by the precpancy Of
his patriotism which free to say is Of the pur-
est character and the fourth has simply been sue
cessful in obtaining for himself an unenviabe notori
ETY..
The first of these is Gen. Taylor-the second, Scott
the third Gaines-and the fourth Worth
We would enquire. then, by what means have these
four officers arrived ut tho respective positions they
now occupy in the estimation of their countrymen
How have they accomplished it 7 Simply thus. The
first by doing his duty-he second by refusing 10 d.
his-thc third by overriding his--and the fourth by
not seeming to know he had any duties to perform.

"a HOME CURRENcY."-We see by exchanges
that the States of Illinois and Indiana, are being
flooded with the notes of Ohio Banks, while late
DAYTON paper states that the Bank of Camden, N. j.
has a large circulation in that vicinity. Our own
state depends for its currency chiefly upon the banks
of other states Indiana and Virginia. In connection
with these facts we trust that the people will bear in
mind the declaration of Alfred Kelly Ga bank coon in
Oho) that rhcn banks send abroad their paper al
is because they cannot redeem IT. and nlsh II Kept from
