FATHERS OF THE REVOLUTION.
The st. Louis American Of the Sd inst contains
the following:
"To shew to the people Of the present day, what
kind of materials the heroes Of the Revolution were
made of we refer them to the following passage f.om
| the history Of the Southern Amy, during General
Greene's campaign in the Caroinas.
"The Virginia Legion was composed fthree COM
panes Of Infantry land three troops Cavalry num-
bering in all three hundred and fifty men, com.
manded by that finished soldier, Lieut.. Col. Henry
Lee, through whose incessant and unwearied exer-
tons it kept in the most perfect state ofecien
cy and discpline-the horses powerful, and in ex-
cellent condition, and the men thoroughly accout
red and equipped. How Lee wa able to keepthem
in that condition. is mystery, and it reflects the
greatest honor on his skill and ability. 1t is fact,
not generally known, but nevertheless true, that at
the battle of Eutaw, one of the many in which the
Legion distinguished itself, there were many
hundreds ofthe soldiers of the American Army per-
fectly NAKED. "At the battle Of Eutaw Springs"
Greene writes in one of his letters Hundreds ofmy
men ,oere naked as they were bona," Judge
Johnson in his life of Greene, says: "Posterity
will scarcely believe that the bare oins of many
brave who carried death into the encmy's ranks
at the Eutaw, were CALLED by their cartouch boxes,
while fold of rag or tuft of moss protected The
shoulder from sustaining the same injury from the
musket." Gen. Greene saws in his letters to the Sec
rotary of War: We have three hundred men
without arms, and more than one thousand men SO
naked that they cannot be put on duty except in
cases of desperate nature. Our difficulties so
numerous, and our wants So pressing, that have
not moments relief from the most painful ankle
ties. have more embarrassments than it is proper
to disclose to the world Let it suffice to say that
part of the United States has had narrow escape.

FROM MEXICO.
The New Orleans Bulletin of the 9Th, saws /:
We yesterday received letter from an off,
Ger on board the United States schooner Flirt,
dated off Brazos ST. Jago, June 10Th, which
we should have received long since bat not
outstanding the delay in its arrival, il con.
tains intelligence Of interest.
"Ihe Flirt arrived off Vera Cruz on the 9Th.
from Brazos St. Jago with Purser Watson,
bearer Of dispatches for Commodore Conner,
on board. At Vera Cruz they found the steam
er Princeton and the frigate Raritan, enforcing
the blockade. The officers and crew of both
vessels were well, and were in daily expecta.
ton that the Commodore would arrive from
Pensacola. when it was supposed an expeJi-
ton would be ordered up the Alvarado, to
capture the Mexican vessels OF war moored
there. Our correspondent speaks in the very
highest terms Of the sailing qualities of the
Princeton; and says her crew and that ofthe
Rartan are eager for active service. He saw
Mexican paper dated June 18th, which stat
ed that Paroles was marching at the head Of
5000 men 10 meet Gen. Taylor; and that Ar.
lsta was under arrest, charged with "disgrace-
full conduct" Great excitement existed at
Vera Cruz. Troops were being brought in con.
stantly from The country to man the castle,
and they were fast falling aprey 10 the yellow
fever.
On the 10th the Flirt left Vera Cruz with
dispatches, and arrived off Tampico on the

little more moderate they would have found their

CONGRESS.
The bill repeating the Tariff of 1912, commonly
known as " McKay's Revenue Bill" has passed the
House by majority of nineteen. The party vote
could not be commanded against this WING measure.
To the very day of voting the ult was doubtful.
In the columns of the New York News may be seen
the manner in which the bill was finally passed.

LOCOFOCOISM VS.. THE PEOPLE.
When it becomes the interest of locofocosm>to
infringe upon the rights of the people, it casts about
for the most likely means to accomplish its nefaious
purpose. When the State of Illinois was balance
ing between the wing and locofoco party, locofoco-
ism secured the ascendency by giving the Mormons
at Nauvoo, extraordinary privileges ia the charter
to the city ofthat deluded and miserable sect--priv-
leges which were direct bride for their votes
privileges which were for their especial benefit as
religious and military sect of fanatcs-prvileges
which were prohibited by the fundamental law--by
the whole spirit Of American liberty, and forbidden
in country Of equal rights; yet were given and
guaranteed by party loud IN their professions of
equal rights.

hot haste to become a State! We respectfully

AS soon as the Journal had been read, the
House went again into a Committee Of the
Whole, and resumed the consideration Of the
joint resolution from the Committee on Foreign
Affairs, authorizing the President to give the no.
tice in relation to Oregon.
Mr.. Stanton having the floor, spoke at some
length in favor Of the notice. He looked upon
it as a measure Of peace, as il was calculated to
bring on speedy and amicable adjustment of the
difficulty. re Great Britain should force MS into
war, we should have the sympathies Of all the
world with us
Mr. Gordon followed. He was in favor Of
carrying out the views Of the Executive, by
giving the notice. He declared that it could not
be cause of war.
