JASPER PREPARINGl

On Saturday last, the 23d inst, the citizens
of Jasper county convened in public meeting
at the Court House to consider the prophecy
of forming a Volunteer Company, which
should await the orders Of the Governor, when
the reouisition upon this State for troops should
be officially received by the Executive. The
call for the meeting was not sufficiently early,
and therefore few were apprised that Jasper
was preparing but when it was known, our
sterling citizens promptly responded, and they
were seen at an early hour vending their way
to the town. Every man was conscious Of
his duty to his country; young aud old evinc.
ed an enthusiasm worthy Of Americans.
The meeting was organized at the hour Of
one o'clock, P. ~, by the unanimous nOmina.
lion ofJoHN McDoNALD, Esq, to the chair,
who stated briefly and pertinenlly the object Of
the assemblsge.
Addresses were made by James McDugSh
and Joseph Heyfron, Esq'rs, which were en-
Enthusiastically received and applauded. Mr..
MeDugnld spoke in bis usual animated and
happy style; now POrtraying the patriot with
vivid conception, now depicting the volunteer,
in all the .chivalry Of a willing patriotism,
rushing TO the battlefield, and now Frightening
the gloom Of the fight by investing il with the
glory Of triumph and bringing to The cars Of
the exhausted eonbstsnis the approving cheers
Of the millions protected Mr Heyfron's
speech was eloquent srgumeniaiiEe, and often
sublime Il was sufficient ior him that we
were involved in war; be would 10, sop to

FROM THE SEAT OF WAR!
BRAzos SANTIAGO, May 10.

Since my last mot Teceived) we have
had two arrivals, the New York and brig
Millaudon. The last brought the news
that six steamboats, with four thousand
volunteers were about starting when she
left.-This news mad us most cheerful, as
we could not have then expected the result
that has since taken place with our troops
Dispatches had been sent 10 Vera Cruz
bv Gen. II, contents TO us subs unknown,
bnt rumor would have il that the aforesaid
Vera Cruz was 10 have been bombarded.
Judge of our surprise then when at day
light on the morning OF the 9Th, the whole
squadron iFalmonth excepled) appeared
off our harbor-The Commodore had not
received the dispatches from her, but was
informed at Vera Cruz, that the Mexicans
had marched 6 or 1000 troops across by
land To assist Gen. ArlSta in 1chippiHg
Gen. Taylor.
Commodore G. therefore, thought very
wisely that his presence here would do
some good in the way of re endorsements.
Gladly was he welcomed, as Gen. Taylor
had marched out the evening previous TO
meet and conquer the enemy, taking with
him twenty-five hundred men, teamsters
included, with two hundred and fifty teams
loaded with ammunitions, provisions, &c,
which the Mexcans were no doubt appris-
ed of, as the teams had been loaded ever
since Monday last, awaiting the orders for
n march at a moments warning.
Cen r. Ieft Point Isabel with little over
one hundred men 10 defend IL. Major
Monroe, commanding here, sent a requisi-
ton TO Com. Conner for as many men as
he could spare, as We heard firing about 2
p M. Of the Sth, which continued with
but little intermiSSion until dark. Com. G.
sent ashore $50 men, and on the 9th or
500 more, which makes this place strong
enough TO Withstand an attack against 20,
600 men.
Believe me When I say there was the
greatest excitement here all the afternoon
Of the Slh, as we could plainly hear the
cannonading from the field Of battle On
the evening Of the Sih Mr. Murray and Mr.
Bacon volunteered 10 60 and find out the
result
On the morning Of the 9th, black boy
came into camp, gave history ofths fght,
which was about time bat as be had run
away and left his team, he was not belieF-
ed.

returned, end slated ss iollowE-
They got 70 Gen. Tsylor's present camp,
sixteen miles from here AZ 10 A. NJ. there
learned that the army marched until about
l3 miles from here, when they saw the

wards US. Itwould at once exhibit US as a ma
ton formidable in her resources and invincible
in her unanimity it would be peace mea-
sure, for peace is always at the command of the
strong. 1t was our wish to give. an outline Of
the successful efforts of both gentlemen, but our
columns are almost exclusively engrossed by the
exciting intelligence brought by every mail
from the Rio Grande.
At the request of the meeting, James NC
Dugald and Henry F. miller, Esqs., sung in
thrilling style the "Star spangled Banne r."
and at the conclusion ofeach stanzas the vocal
ISIS were greeted with warm plaudils.
When the complement of Volunteers is full,
we will publish the names.

A PROCLAMATIO

Whereas, the Congress Of the United States
bv virtue of the constitutional authority vested
in them, have declared by their sct bearing
date this day, that, shy the act of the Republic
of Mexico, state of war exists between that
government and the United States"
Now, therefore, |, JAMES X POLK, Pre-
sident of the United States of America, do
hereby proclaim the same to all whom it may
concern; and do specially enloin on all per-
sons holding Offices, civil or military, under the
authority of the United States, that they be vi
gilant and Ralous in 'discharging the duties
respectively incident thereto and do more
over exhort all the good people of the United
States as they love their country, as they feel
the wrongs which have forced on them the last
resort of injured nations, and as they consult
the best means, under the blessing Of Divine
Providence, of abridgng the calamities, that
they exert themselves in preserving order, IN
promoting concord, in maintaining the antho-
rity and the efficacy of the laws and in support
ing and invigorating all the measures which

TREASON AND INsULT.-A correspond
ent Of the Mobile Advertiser, writing from
New York city, utters the following contempt
IDLE sentiment:
those whs gave their votes for annexa-
tion could be placed in the van to bear the
brunt Of the battle they have provoked it would
be just retrbution"
Is this the language of an American 1t
may be- but it is the sentiment Of a mere tool Of
faction. The very party to which this gall
and NORWOOD being claims to belong would
disdain his alliance and reprobate his coarse
and unmanly pIejudices. Is the hour Of dan.
ger the time to fling the taunt at the democra-
cy ofthe country, and endeavor to cool the ar
dor of wings who, generously forgetlul Of par
ty animosities, go shoulder to shoulder with
democrats to repel the invader? Some wire
worker Of party, his disendcd eye fixed upon
the dim prospect of fat office, must be the
anonymous scribbler for the Advertiser and
that sheet shows no patriotism and little dis
erection in giving publicity to such sentiments
Thank Heaven we have no such wings in

| OUR VICTORIES. The news from our ar.
my, which we publish in detail today, is OF
a glorious character. The American arms
have achieved a succession of brilliant victo-
ries in several conflicts with the foe which
must inspire every heart with pride and joy.
Our troops went to the field unfamiliar with
the tactics and dangers of war, yet veterans
never acted with more frmness, prudence and
bravery. They have proved that America
needs no standing army, that her strength is
the popular heart, and her reliance the citizen
soldier. This war will prove an opportune
one; il will silence the jeers of the British
press upon what is considered by Europeans
our defenceless condition; it will show, also,
that the men Off have left worthy descend
ants with ten.fold the strength and ability to
meet the emergencies of war. And as the
Spartan soldier was the boast Of Greece and
the main pillar in the temple of her fame, SO
henceforth an impershable lustre will halo
the name Of the AMERICAN VOLUNTEER.
But we would not detract from the merits of
our regular army. 1t has behaved most gal.
lantly, and the con duct of its COMMANDMENT.
Chief has falsifed the slanderouS rumors that
were tampering with his fame and character.
Taylor has risen high in the estimation of the
people, while he has displayed some of the
best traits of consummate generalship
But now that we are rejoicing over victory,
existing in the successes of American arms
let us pause around the dead-the chivalrous
American dead-and give tribute and tear
to their memory Among the chapparels and
marshes of the Mexican frontier, beneath the
swelterng sun Of summer, the American SOL
dier lies in death, his plume and pennon by
his side. The bugle calls him to the ranks
in vain; the reveille is unanswered by his
quick and firm tread Cofinless and cold his
body rests, but his spirit is marshaled in the
peace armies Of another land. RINGGoLD is
gone, and pobler heart was never lost to
just cause; thirteen other commissioned Off
GERS are among the slain. They will be re-
membered-they are avenged; but the con-
test is not overt has only commenced, and
it should not terminate until the American
flag waves in triumph over the city of Mexico.
