THE CABINET AND THE WAR.


The energy displayed by the Executive and his
cabinet, in bringing so rapidly into requsition the
means of the patton to hasten the war with Mexico
to speedy and honorable termination, merits, and
will receive, the applause Of every patriot 10 the
land II is cheering to the heart Of every American
to see how nobly the Executive arm has been
strengthened and sustained by the people, in prompt
ly furnishing the number of men required to carry
on the war with vigor. Every war vessel, of what
ever class, now upon the stocks, under the order OF
the Secretary of the Macy, will soon be aloat on its
''natlve clement" and will ere long be cruising ell
Their upon the Pacific or gulf coast of Mexico. Mer-
chantivessels and steamers have been purchased by
the government from private individuals for the
same service, and before the fourth of July next we
shall have yankee tars" enough uhoat to blockade
every seaport on the Mexican coast. The Secretary
of War is actively engaged in furnishing our gallant
and increasing army with every necessary for
vigorous prosecution of the war. Congress will
not hesitate to supply our forces, by sea and land
with an abundance of the "sinews Of war; IN the
shape Of plentiful appropriations. With such praise
worthy activity on the part of every department of
government, backed by the enthusiasm Of the repub-
lie, the war cannot fail to end in brilliant triumph

Our town for the last few weeks has presented a
scene OF business equal TO a crowded city. Emf

The following correspondence between the officers
Of the Richard M johnson Association Of this city
and Hon. Richard M. Johnson, will be read with
interest:
"NEw YoRK, May 8, l646.
To Colonel RICHARD M. JOHNSON
STA: We learn with much pleasure that you are
at present in the city Of Washington, and as the
officers Of the r. M. Johnson Association in this
city, we take the liberty to address you. Our or
ganzatioB occurred in consequence Of the admira-
ton cherished for your character, and long and
arduous services, both in the cabinet and in the
field
"We recognised in you the patriotic citizen, the
able statesman, the gallant and successful com.
mander. We saw your entire manhood spent in the
halls Of the national Congress- excepting the period
when you sought the cruel enemy, and then you
we're coming back with your fresh wounds to the
iuties OF the legislator. We traced your course
from the Legislature Of Kentucky to the House OF
Representstves-the United States Senate--the vice
presidency of the Union, and we believe that such
devotion of energy and sacrifice of time and de-
manded the highest Acknowledgements and the warm
est gratitude of your country, and many Of your
fellow-eltiZens in this populous city banded them
selves together under your honored name, and in
1910, we INDUCED the hope that your patriotism
and 'alor would have insured you the highest sta
ton IN the civilized world, the presidency Of tho
united States. Circumstances over which we had
no control, prevented the accomplishment Of our
fondest hopes, and deferred 20 the apparent ne
cesslty of the case, cheered by the hope that we
might yet see you sustained by the united voice of
the democracy.
We rejoice TO hear of your vigorous health, and
that you able to discharge the duties of active
life, 10 the honorable retirement which you have
sought. Since you last visited our city and State,
large accessions have been made TO our population,
and there thousands in New York who, in com
mon with ourselves, venerate the character Of the
brave and benevolent hero of the Thames, and who
earnestly desire TO gaze upon his SCARED form, and
shake his honest hand. We wish ourselves TO re-
new our acquaintance with the man whom the peo-
pie delight TO honor And now sir, on behalf Of the
X. M. johnson Association Of New York, we do
earnestly and respectfully ask you TO fix upon an
early day when your friends and fellow citizens may
greet you here, and give you public demonstration
Of the respect and affection entertained for YOU
We are, sir, yours, with devoted respect,

SANTA ~ TRADE.-CALIFoRNIA AND OREGON
EXPEDITIONS
lsDEPEsDEsCE,

EXPEDITIONS.
IsDErIsDEsoE, ay l6, 1886.
Since my last, the scene has entirely changed in
our town. Instead Of a great hustle OF emgrants
for Oregon and California, with their wagons
erowding streets laying in their outfits for their
journey across the plains, we have great crowd OF
Mexicans and traders 10 Santa Fe and Chihuahua.
IL Is supposed that we have at least two hundred
Mexicans IN the town and vicinity at this time.
Messrs. Agura and Skillman arrived here a few
days since in advance OF the main company making
the tnp from Chihuahua in fory-six days. The
present week several companies have arrived
among them PEG Semlrane, Jose Gonzales, and Louis
faulwager, Mexicans, who are on their way TO the
east to purchase goods. They came in the early
part Of the week; also James Magofhn, with others
from Chihuahua, have also reached here. These
various companies have brought in an immense
quantity Of specie, amour ing TO about three hun
dred and fifty thousand dollars. These Mexicans
had to make forced marches between Chihuahua
and Santa Fe owing to the hosutes Of the Indians,
who pursued them for the purpose Of robbng them,
and were much pressed.
About forty wagons have left for Santa Fe and
chihuahua this week, and others are preparing TO
leave shortly. The late war news from Mexico
does not seem TO ntimdate the traders. They are
determined to push ahead let what will turn up.
They feel very sangune Of success in their
enterprise, and say they believe they will
not be molested, the northern states Of Mexico
are in favor Of the trade being kept up all haz-
ards. What will be the result, time only deter
mine. IL is believed by many that the trade will
greatly increase in consequence of the ports of the
Gulf and Pacific being closed by Dur vessels, and
thus leaving this the only point through which they
can safely receive goods We trust that such may
be the result ola war which cannot be very sangui-
nary.
The Oregon emigrants have gone on in advance
Of the Callfornians, to their great encampment on
the kanzss river, about one hundred miles west Of
this. We have not yet received census of their
company, but will in few days. The California
emIgrants held meeting twenty five miles west Of
this place, on Indian creek, and elected their off,
GERS Col. VIM. Ii. Russell, of Galloway, was
elected their captain. They have l4l fighting men,
II women and l09 children, and 1913 wagons. Ex-
governor Boggs and Rev James Dunleavy, Of this
county, are among them, with their families.
There are many Kentuckians with them, who
evnce the daring spirit that characterz ed their
fathers in the settlement of that highly
gion the land Of their birth.
