A returned Soldiers remuneration Of
81 federalism

We invite the attention of our readers to
the following remuneration Of federalism by
a returned volunteer, who participated in
the battle of Monterey. He is one ofthose
brave young men, who, when they ascer-
tanned that the company which was orgnni-
zed here, could not be recev ed into service,
Immediately left for Camp Washington,
and there joined the company. from Dayton.
He was n whig when he lelt this city for
the army, and We rejoice that tho 'scales
have fallen from his ey esq and he is en-
abled to see which party in the United
States is the tory party, and after finding to
his sorrow, that he had been acting with
the party opposed to sustaining the honor
Of their country, like brave man, he at
once lorsook it and joined the democracy.
We are proud of this accession; and we
cheerfully extend to him the right hand of
fellowship. May he live long to enjoy the
laurels he helped win; and may he help
consign to as deep political grave, the
tories in our own State AID country.
MR. EDlToR-Will you allow mo TO

Great Business.

The Cabot Manufacturing Company
lately brought and action against poor
Irish girl about lo years of age, for DANA
ges to the amour: Of thirty dollars, for
breaking three shoots from a certain smoke
tree. 1t appeared in evidence that two of
them were about the length of a mans
hand, and the other about the size ofa pipe
stem. The decision was given in favor Of
the company, and taoenty: four cents DANA
ges awarded. When the process was
served upon her, she offered to pay the
costs and twenty-seven cents damages
The Springfield Sentinel pokes it at them
after the following fashion:-This is a
great country! The Cabot Manufacturing
Company !-capital s5OO,0oO! Number
ing among its stockholders the magnates of
the land-going to zav with an Irish girl for
t,csnty four cemts north of smoke tree after
she had rendered them THREE CENTS
more than 1t tDas north!
We clip the above from the Lowell
Patriot. This Cabot Company is one of
those which was to be ruined by the demo-
cratic tariff; and it is the owner Of paper
bank mill, whose trash is circulating large
ly in the west Of late. Look ou. for it, and
for three dollar notes on it,
Better not touch them.

Redemption of Bonds.

The Auditor of State gives notice that
the interest upon the Ohio Turnpike Stocks,
and Wabash and Erie Canal Land bonds,
will cease on the first day Of November
next, and that said bonds will be paid in
full on or before that day, upon presenta-
ton at the Treasury. The amount ofthe
former outstanding, on the 18th Of Novem-
ber last, was $sl 1856 68;-and there was
then reported, as in the Treasury, applicable
to their redemption, $58, $50 "a. With
the payments of Surplus Revenue, made in
January last, they could as we'll have been
redeemed in May last, as in next Noven1-
ber. Of the Wabash bonds, there was
outstanding on the 18th Of November last,
81, 557 90. By the way, the original
issue Of these bonds was $69, 9,991 of
which over $6O,OOO was redeemed under
democratic administration of the finances.
The State Journal is in extases over this
notice Of the Auditor. 'Hear it rejoice:'
"FIRsT FRUITs.-A notice from the
Auditor of State in this days paper to the
holders ofthe Domestic Stock of Ohio, will
be music to the ears of the tao payers Of
the State. The State is prepared to pay
The principal on the desert ptions of debt
enumerated in that notice, and thus to pre-.
vent the accumulation Of interest, and save
the necessity of collecting further taxes for
either principal or interest"
AS 10 the Wabash and Erie bonds, the
money for their redemption arises from the
sale ofState lands. In regard to the others,
the assertion Of the Journal is as fallacious
as whig promises usually are. The money
to redeem them is the principal of Surplus
Revenue, paid back by the counties; and
instead of the State being relieved from the
accumulation of interest," she is required to
pay, annually five per cent. upon this very
money to the school fund; and one per cent.
six-to the counties which have
returned the investment. What shall be
said of print that either ignoranty or
deliberately palms off such assertions for
truth, upon its readers Gin Enquirer.

tween Neuces ana iosG GrarIde, as much
belongs to Texas as her own independence.
10 it Mexico has no more right than to the
territory that forms the western shore OF
the Sabine. For time subsequent to the
declaration Of independence, the issue was
doubtful; but at San Jacinto the Mexican
army was defeated and dispersed, the re-
nowned Santa Anna made prisoner, and
the rights of Texas confirmed. Her indie.
,pendence was soon after recognized by the
principle nations of the earth; and even the
Mexican government made virtual but
evasive acknowledgement Of her separate
national existence.
When it was first proposed to annex
Texas to the United States, was among
those that composed the opposition. The
questions that then existed touching the
policy, still exist; and my views upon them
are the the same as then expressed. But
| never doubted the right of our government
to annex to its territory, the territory of
any other independent government, with
the consent and at the request Of that
government. Texas was free For ten
years she had maintained her freedom
She existed among the nations of the EARTH
At her request she was annexed to the
United States. No foreign right was in
fringed, for none existed; and on this
ground there is no cause for complaint
The cause of the war is found else-
where. During twenty years the Mexican
government and authorities had not ceased
to insult the stars and stripes, by numerous
acts of open hostility. The lights of indi-
viduals were neglected property was
seized and confscated; citizens of the Unit
ed States were inhumanly butchered; our
Minister, Mr.. Shannon, was robbed; the
Mexican minister was recalled; Mr.. Slidell
was not permitted to enter the Republic, all
further intercourse was refused, except
confined to single subject;
war was virtually declared. 1t was not till
after all these things happened, that the
Congress of the u. s., declared the ~exis-
tence of war. Gen. Taylor was ordered
by the President to occupy position on the
east side of the Rio Grande. At the Colo
rado an Insignificant force had assembled,
by order of the Mexican President, Paroles,
to arrest his progress; but our intreped
little army dashed into the river, and the
Mexicans precipitately fled. Soon after
Fort Brown was erected, Palo Alto and
Resaca de Ia Palma won, and Matamoras
occupied"
