Times says the accounts from the u by the Hber

OF attention. The Message OF Mr. Polk to Congress Is
not considered warike Indeed some of the public wr
tiers profess 10 the best guaranty Tor the
OF peace IN the expense TO which the country will put
by armiug for conflict. Seventy millions OF dollars be-
slowed upon putting the army and navy ON a footing Tor
commencing the emergency OF the case, would induce
every man who contributed his quota that astonishing
sum To inquire into Its necessity.
The following extracts from article in the London

hnuafes unsuccessully claimed the whole

CUSTOMS they have raised their demands they have laid

We ntimaied opinion some time ago that the 19b
