possible that the United States will re-
main idle spectators of such atrocious
injustice as is now being perpetrated
upon this sister republic--especially
when their own interests, commercial
and political, are so clearly involving
"The government here, as have
often told you, is good. The rights of
all are rIgidIy observed; and no better
evidence of it could be adduced than
that while the assailing powers are bat
terlng down the towns on the coast

French and English citizens at Buenos
Ayres are enjoying all the rights, priv
ileges, and protection of native citizens;
nay, more, for while the former reap
all the benefits Of a good government,
they are exempt from all civil and mil

account of descent of the Indians up
on the estancia Of the writer some hun

BuenOs Ayres.

Ertract from letter, dated april l2h,
from a gentleman who for many
gears has been resident at Buenos
Ayres, 10 his brother, a member of The
Senate of Tie United States:
"The course of the English and
French towards this country, is out
rageous in the extreme. 1t can find no
justification in any principle, except
that of might What is to be the result,
in some respects, is not easily foreseen.
They may murder and destroy until
the poor inhabitants are literally driven
to the pampts to live in hunger and ma
kedness; but assure you, dear broth
er, knowing this people as ] do, they
would glory in it, or suffering 10 any
extent, in preference to submitting to
the rule of an European power or any
foreign power whatever. If it is ex-
pected to find another Algers here

"Whatever may be the pretences, !
think there can be no doubt that the

France is conquest. England, especial
ly, wants cotton, rice, and TOBACCO

ent peiarious attempts, will attain her

BANxs.-By the published statement OF the
condition of all the banks of this State, It appears,
that the tax paid by banks is not over jfue mills
on the dollar of their capital stock. The citizens
of this county have been paying on an average for
years back, 20 mills and will, no doubt, have to
pay, the present year, about the same amount Is
there equality in this state of affairs! How long
will the people tamely submit to be thus borne
down by the rich nabobs Of this country!
The al Stark County Democrat" after publish
ing an abstract of the report Of the condition Of the
81 banks in this State, says
"The above is the condition of the banks as re-
ported by themselves, and certified by the Auditor
of State together with the amount OF tax paid, and
the average tax on each dollar of bank stock, jim
mills and hundredths Of mills. All this goes to
show that the tax on the banks is less thano mills
on each dollar of bank stock, which the whigs,,
from the gallant William Bebb down to John Sax
ton, want TO make the people believe is more than
the people pay. II will be seen, when the whole
levy is made, how the facts are, and we predict
that the farmers and other people will pay at least
Is mills on the dollar of their valuation on the du-
plcate for the present year whether they make any
profits or not; while the banks, if they make no
profits, for the next six months will pay no more
taxes than they have already paid. And such
result would reduce the average per centum per
annum Just one-haf.
"The Bank Of Akron, Bank of Massillon, Bank
of Norwak and Bank of Sandusky have paid no
taxes, not having made any profits. according to
their reports, we suppose. And not one Of all the
list is bound to pay taxes, except on the PROFITS

Extent of the Confederacy-
And the Tariff.

Our country stretches through near
30 degrees Of latitude, and more than
so Of longitude from the Atlantic to the
Pacific ocean. 1t presents a great ex
tent of territory, and Of course, a great
variety Of soils, climates, productions
emp!oyments, and interests. Take the
simplest production Of the earth as the
measure Of its capacities. You may
begin with strawberries in Florida in
March, or earlier, and feast upon them
in Maine until July. We the ''New
Orleans Picayune" tantaIizing its broth

night ago with the promise of Gas fine
peaches" now ripe IN Louisiana, ''as
ever blushed under the warm kisses of
the amorous sum- In Washington,
the peach has not yet pretended to ex-
change its brownish green for the blush
of maturity.
What should we think Of the wisdom
or the power of Congress, if they were
to undertake to encourage the growth
of peaches in Maine by bounties on
hot-houses Tor, still more, to encour-
age them in the more genial climates
of the sunny South? TO protect them
in the South, would be idle and super
fluous. TO attempt it in the North,
would be an extravagant and ridiculous
undertaking. Every climate in our
widely-extended empire produces what
is most suitable to itself.
1t seems scarcely more polite or
proper to undertake the office of pro-
tecting and encouraging manufactures.
What climate and soil are to agricuI-
ture. labor and capital are to the me-
chanIcal and manufacturing arts. Let
any section of the country have accu-
mulated capital and abound with la
borers, as we'll as water power, its

Preparing for siege-fortifying The

for 5000 mare, &c.,
An extra from the office OF the Lex
ington (MissourD Express states that
Mr.. Houck had arrived at lndepen-
dence from Santa Fe, having made the
trip in twenty days. He is said to have
brought intelligence that the authori-
ties Of Santa Fe were forti(ying it, and
besides two thousand men then under
arms, the governor had made requisi-
ton for five thousand men from Chi
huahua. Every third man in Santa
Fe and it's vicinity was to bear arms
in IFS defence. The place was prepar-
ing for siege. Mr.. Houck, it is ad-
ded, expresses the opinion that Col.
Learney ought not to take less than
FIVE thousand men on his expedition
against New Mexico.
The st. Louis New Fra of the 18th
instant says:
"a number of wagons loaded with
ammunition and provisions have alrea.
DIV started on their way over the prai-
ries, and Col. Kearney sends them
ahead as fast as he can get them in
readiness. More than two hundred
Dragons have also taken up their line
of march. The volunteer companies
are at Fort Leaven worth gong through
drills and military exercises, under the
direction of the regular officers Of the
army, and are said to be improving
rapidly. Col. Kearney very properly
keeps his counsels to himself, and it is
not known when the main body of the
troops will start. Many baggage wag-
ons are needed. The character and
past conduct of Col. Kearney afford a
guarantee that the expedition will be
conducted with military skill, and in
such manner as TO render II success

Further from the Mormons.

In the St. Louis Republican Of the
9Th, we find the substance Of the re-
port OF Il committee Of public safety, APP
pointed by a meeting Of the Mormons
at Nauvoo. That Journal says:
"The address is couched in firm, but
respectful language, and, while it as
cribes no improper motives to a por-
ton Of those who are engaged IN the
crusade against the Mormons, it thinks
there are others with objects in view,
which are neither humane, just, or pa
triotic. The address introduces the
affidavit of Thomas Movitt, Jr., to show
that he was forced to take part with
the Anti -Mormons in their excesses, in
order to save himself from being com

ers have been compelled to adopt the
same course, from the apprehension Of
being stlgmatised and driven from their
homes. It's said that the Mormons as
fast as they can be ferried over the riv-
er, and faster than is consistent with
their means ef subsistence, or their safe

the prairies, houseless and unprovided

Truly a hard Case.

In conversing with the worthy as
SCISSOR of Madison township, he CASUAL
y referred to several cases in which
the hardship of the present infamous
tax law is painfully apparent. One OF
these cases was that Of two maiden fe-
males advanced in lfe-one Of them
upwards OF 60, and the other close upon
80, tottering cripple borne down
with age, infrmity and want. These
two females live in retired spot alone.
Aside from the bounty Of their friends
and the scanty pittance which their
feeble hands can earn for them, they
have nothing to rely upon except the
revenue which $l6O al interest, yields
to them yearly. The law relating to
them is plain. and the duty Of the As
SCISSOR, although painful, was impera-
tive. The poor old women must 60
on the tax list, and they accordingly
stand charged with $3.50 at interest.
and for sheep which Craze about their

and age-no matter for their loneliness
and poverty, the law is the same.-
The price of State Stocks must be rails

salaries of Judges and State officers
must be increased and the old women
must give up portion Of their scanty

The War in Hancock, Illinois

We copy the following from the
Hancock QIl.) Eagle, Extra, of Satur
day night, June 18th.
An armed force (about four hundred
strong assembled without the pale oi
the law now lies encamped within
striking distance of the city, and its ad.
vance in a hostile attitude is hourly ex.
pected by the citizens. All possible
preparations have been made to receive
the shock should it come, and there are
but few at rest tonight who have not
arranged TO spring into the street at
the 'tap ofMe beN." One thing is set.
tled--ifany armed force should attempt
to enter the place with mischievous
intent, they will have to walk over the
dead bodies Of 300 free American citi-
zens, who have recently purchased
homes in Nauvoo, and established res
idence upon property vacated by the
Mormons. The new citizens have
selemnly determined, in council assem-
bled, that they will neither fly from
their homes, nor be dictated to by an
armed force illegally assembled. To
use the language of one of the speak
ers, the thrilling tones Of whose voice
still linger IN our ears--"We have pur-
chased a right to administer our own
affairs; and as faras the law upholds US,
we will maintain that right"
Upon this point there is but one SEN
timent. The power and influence once
exercised by the Mormons have pas
sed into the hands Of community who
cannot be made to understand by what
authority any invading force presumes
to dictate the conditions upon which
they shall exercise the privileges of Cit
izenship. In defence of this principle,
and for the protection of their lives and
property, the new citiztns have arm
ed themselves, and they call upon tLer
fellow citizens throughout the land, TO
sustain them IN their struggle. This is
thcW own language, and it will proba-
bly, be published to the world to-mor-
row over their names.
Sunday morning, 9 0'cl0ck.-lhe
whole city is in an uproar-the bell has
struck ia call every man 10 arms, and
men Of might are moving to the muster
ground. The force sworn in to act
under the sheriff exceeds GOO men,
They will move in two or three hours
towards the hostile camp.
The issue is made and in few hours
the result will probably be known.

marching in body to the verge of the

their head, and to the music of cyan

port she left on the Cd instant, we have
papers up to the Cd inclusive.
The only news worth noting is from
the Windwar1 Islands. In the island
of Grenada, up to the 23d ultino, there
had been no relief from drought, and
the consequence was, that the cane and
stock were suffering to great extent.
In the island of Barbados they have
been more fortunate. Rain commenc-
ed falling there early in April, and the
weather during the whole OF that month
was propitious to the agriculturist.--
Cane cutting had commenced, but ow-
ing to the light and variable winds was
proceeding slowly. We do not find
that any important diminution OF the
crop is anticipated in this island, and the
young canes ale considered as fully
established.
About the 18th ultimo a large fire
broke out in the quarter Of Napamima,
in Trinidad, and destroyed a vast guam
tity of cane, and several buildings on
several Of the plantations in the town.
There had been large fire also at Ce-
dros, by which several of the most ex-
tenslve and flourishing estates in that
quarter were devastated.
"These fearful disasters" says the
Standard, ''coupled with the dreadful
drought. are really giving to our agri-
cultural affairs a most melancholy as
pect. Distress and ruin must be the
inevitable destiny of the colony, if a
mercilul Providence do not quickly in.
