"Brulns" in yesterdays Wing deyoies whole
Letter 10 our notice Of the mischeyous and lac
tons language Of The HagersIown (Md.) News,
10 relation to the Mexican war. The writer al
tempts to break the force Of what We said. by pub
fishing his impression that the Editor Got The
News) is Locofoco." "Brutus" is entirely
mistaken. We were informed by one who knows
that The said Editor is Jealous Vaig, and we
were al the same time requested 10 nollce The iah-
euaee of the Ne,rs, as evidence OF The extreme
length 10 which some Of The violent Wings were
carried by party, in opposition just and right
eous war. With this explanation, we leave it to
the public TO Judge OF our "fairness" II eur
course has been unfair, "Brutu," may make
the most Of it," But Bru,us adds:
"Ibelieve that, il Mexico has received The inn
preston at all, that there is party in this coun.
iry opposed TO The war, she has received il from
the Locofoco press; and, had il mol been thought
necessary TO make this war for mere party 0g.
grGndizemeni. Mexico never would have received
such an idea"
This is most amusing argument. The De-
mocralc press, without exception, stand up for
the war and lis vigorous prosecution; many oil the
Wing press and politicians denounce il as 'un-
just, unnecessary, alrocious, damnabe." And,
YET, it is the Democratic press that are response
Bile for infusing such false impressions into the
minds of Mexican rulers! The statement of The
point refule. ITSELF Let "Brutus" take care, lest
his own Pronunciation of the war; as "a war for
mere party sgrandzemeni," produce such an
impression as he labors to convict The Demo-
Gratis of creating.

MORE LAID AND COMFORT

In the Massachusetts Legislature, few days
since, MIR. Caleb Gushing asked leave 10 intro.
duce resolution appropria,ing The sum of2O 600
dollars for the equipment and support Of the Mas
sachusets volunteers for the Mexican war. He
stated that be wished to have The resolution re-
ceived and referred to select comm!ee.
Mr.. Reyes of Dedhan said he should vote 10
refer the resolution, but sooner than vote any mo-
ney which would go 10 maintain The "lnfamous
war with Mexico" he would cut off his right
hand.
MIR. Bird of Foxboro also spoke OF the "infer-
nal slave-holdiDg Mexican war;" got up by our
national administration.
The whole subject was then laid on The table
by The Wing Legislature, III 10 81. And il is
because The Democratic press denounce suchtrea-
sonablc language and infamous proceedings, that
the Wings clamor about ia violation OF The Tree
dom of speech" The Boston Times reviews
the subject with scahing severity asloows:
~, seemed as though bomb shell were thrown
into the House, and The Wing zealo,s were on
rous OF its reference 10 a special committee, SO
that a report might be had. Some Of The Wings
were liberal enough 10 favor this course, but The
majority showed themselves towards and enc
mics Of their country. A motion was made TO
lay The whole subject on The table, and such was
its disposition by the majority. The yeas and
naw were however taken, and we have The plea
sure OF presenting 10 the State and Nation the
names OF these recreanls 10 the country in time OF
war.

names will go down 10 pos,eTily for the slow, I'M
