A STANDING ARMY IN PROSPECT

A STANDING ARMY IN PROSPECT.
The Washington correspondent ofthe Charles
ton Courier, who AYERS that the Cabinet have
resolved on taking possession of Mexico, in
dicates in another letter, one of the consequent
ces of this policy, as follows
"War and conquests are costly amusements,
and especially for republics, and we must be
prepared to foot the bill. We must calculate,
too, on maintaining large standing army in
the interior Of Me1ico and a neral force on her
coasts"
This is locofoco authority. Of course we
Enlistment to keep our conquests. There il
no possible way for us to keep Mexico, but by
force. Nor is there any considerable part of
it--not even California, which will not cost ui
more than it is worth.

A letter written at Washington and publish
ed in the N Y. Tribune, asserts that, should
the war upon Mexico be closed now the bills
to be paid by the United States would run up
TO the enormous amount Of Que Hundred and
Half Millions Dollars
The writer proceeds to say that this amount
in silver would load 1400 six horse wagons

gets more territory for the South to extend the
dominion of slavery, the North will never get
a cent from the conquest: her industrious citi-
zens will be granted the poor privilege only of
paying TWO THIRDS of the war expenses.
In killed and deaths by disease the Ameri-
cans have lost taco thousand men, and we have
murdered perhaps two thousand Mexicans and
made a host of widows and many more chill

IS Democrats in the negative Eleven of these

two from New Jersey, and one from Maryland.
