TROUBLE THE CAMP.

The run:or that Generals Worth and
Pillow were arrested by order Of Gen.
Scott, is now subs,antia,ed by confirmato'
~ accounts. The facts are as follows !:
Two letters were published in the U. S.
to which General Scott took exception.
He very prematureiy charged their an.
thorship upon Worth and Pillow. The
latter denied the authorship Of the letter
attributed b i'm, aad appealed from an
opinion of General Scott to the Sec retar y
Of War, requesting him to transmit his
appeal. Scott refused, when Pillow re-
marked, i will do il, SIR sThe arrest
you, SIR Scott replied. General Worth
prefers charges against Gen. Scott, and
the latter arrests him for contempt.
1t 10 believed that General Sect ha s
been too hasty in these proceedings. and
that they will serve 10 place him in an
unenviable position before the array.
The fact 10 related, that General Pillow,
on a visit TO the Theater after his arrest,
there being an audience Of over 5000
persons, was greeted by three cheers
aud the same number was given to Gen.
Worth.

I%The bold un,ruth of the Presidents
last annual message, that war was begun by
" the act of Mexico" is very justly com
msnted upon by the Trenton State Gazette,
in the following paragraph:
"We do not think it becomes any Wing
to &c, angry at these perversions Of truth
They are confessions SO far as they 60. that
the war is not defeDsble by the truth
that the ,rath alone will not justify it, bu,
that disunsenuous prevarication must be
! called in to its aid. Such confession from
the very author of the war is well worth
having. We thank the President for it
that is to say, we thank him for it as a
confession. We do not thank him, or any
man, for misrepresentation Of the truth.
The Philadelphia Bulletin, neutral pa,
per, often quoted az ainst the Wings, as mos
of those locofocos in disguise are, ny the
ad mi nistration journals. expresses, its re-
greet that the President, in his message, en-
deavors 70 convey the idea that the last
Congress, by the nearly unani NOUS vote o.
both parties, declared that the present wal
existed by the act of Mexico. ga state pa
per (says the Bulle.iu,) should be above
such petty subterfuges."
Litchfield enquirer., 1847-01-14
THE CONGRESSIONAL VERDICT ON THE
PRESIDENT.

Nothing can exceed the restlessness fthu
Locoiuco organs at the vote recsntly passed the
House Of Representatives. that the Mexican
war was unconslitulionally and unnecessarily
commenced by the Presideat Of the United
States 1t is direct assertion ofthe falsehood
OF the pretext which the Message set up TOR
the defence Of the war. 1t is an open accusa-
ton OF the President--a charge Of great guilt
in the administration Of the weighlesl affairs
q sentence which will stand forever upon the
Jour nails of the House. No wonder Mr. Folks
pa,tizans lay it to heart. No wonder they
pour out storm Of execration upon :he heads
of those members who had the courage 10 res
cord their names III support Of the vote. But
all their vaporing and buster cannot alter
the factsy or remove this sentence from the
journals Of Congress. Neither can they re-
liese Mr. Polk from the feeling that the sent
ence will be ratified BY the people, BY the
judgment OF the world aud the latest poster
ity.-Hartford Courant.
Litchfield enquirer., 1847-01-14

The vote in the House Of Representatives
on the Mexican War, upon the amendment
of Mr.. Ashmun, was most honorable to that
body, and wipes out the disgrace Of the in
famous bill which declared that war existed
by the act of Mexico. How great has been
the change OF public sentiment since thai
falsehood was Incorporated into a law of the
land. On Moaday last, appended to vote
Of thanks to Gen. Taylor, the W.T. was de-
clared to be "a WAR UNNECESSARILY AND
UNcoNsTITUTIoNALLYB BEGUN BY THE PREsT-
DENT OF THE UNITED STATES" This is
the truth, the whole truth, and nothing hut
truth. If the Wings in Congress will but
show little more of the courage Of our ar
my in Mexico, aud 'charge home" upon
the war men without the slightest hesita>
iion, they will soonoverwhelm them. Truth
is mighty, and a glorious triumph was that
vote of Monday.
