Gun,Po,Oder made from Cotton.--The
Washington Union contains letter, from
Europe in which is a statement that pow
der of superior quality has made out Of
cotton. The Union says:
1t appears to have been discovered a.
bout the same time, by two OF the chem
lists OF Europe, 1t is more combuslable
than gun-powder-more powerful in its
explosion, heating and fouing the gun
much less and probably endangering less
the lives Of those who fire the gun from
its danger Of bursting. 1t is much more
efficient and economical, because it is
four times as strong, costs much less to
make it; and it is SO simple in its prepar-
alton that it can be manufactured by the
most common operative. The question
arises wheteer it does not become the du.
ty of the War and Navy Departments to
investigate the subject, and to institute a
series of experiments as soon as they can
communicate with the authors or the pa
tentces, because we understand that the
step has been taken 10 take out patent

WHO is responsible for the continuance
Of the war?-Mr Kennedy answered this
question, the other day, in the debate on
the Presidents message.
"Why-who, he asked, where, indeed,
responsible for the blood which had been
shed in this war? These religious gentle
man were the men. 1t was their speech
esther exortations--their denunclallons
their profession of the opposition of tho
American people TO the maintenance Of
the Texan boundary as against Mexico,
which had induced that miserable and be-
sotted nation to suppose that war for The
vindcation Of the honor Of the United
States and for the maintenance of its just
rights, would not be sustained, and hence
it has been thut the Mexicans had rushed
madly into the conflict. 1t was the very
same religious influence which induced
the MeXicans to continue the contest and
refuse submission. 1t was the course per-
sued by such religious gentlemen which
led the MeyIcans to say, "These friends
of ours in the United States will paralyze
the hands of their own government, and
we will wiring from them favorable peace!"
But for such influences, would another
battle have followed that of Palo Alto?--
No. On the skirts Of those who denounc-
ed the government of the United States
for the prosecution of war rested all the
blood of Americans and Moxcans which
had been poured out upon The battle field
These were his (Mr K's) honest views,
spoken with great plainness, and without
any pretenlions 10 rhetorical effect"
