No Party Men.
The New Haven PALLADIUM. a wbie paper. sa,

The New Haven Palladium, whig paper, says
"We profess to be party men-rigidly so-and
90 far from shrinking from the title, we covet it
and are very suspicious of every active politician
who processes to be mo party man. They are
usually men who are first in for the spoiIs and last
70 incur any responsibility. They bear no mutual
burdens, and have no generous political fellowship
with any body. They ally themselves to no party,
but talk about the whole people, because they want
TO be in position to receive the patronage or ho-
pos of whichever party may happen I'd be in the
sscendant. They talk much Of independence of
party trammes, while they are the cringing slaves
Of their own avarice or inordinate ambition"
The above remarks, 90 far as they relate to "no-
party-msn," might be "tsken homo" by some men
b thh region.

Late and Important from Santa Fe
MURDER OF SOME AMERICANS-CoN
TEMPLATED INSURRECTION-B
ING OF LOS Was.
The news from the Far West this
morning,is is that about the last of June
the Mexicans stole horses o. Capt.
Homie's company, and that Lit. Brown
and three privates, who wen! in search
of them, never returned. Maj. Ed
mondson in command at Los Vegas,
with small force marched to Los Was,
small town frequented by robbers,
and burned all the houses where stolen
goods were found, killing some 10
Mexicans, and wounding others. so
Mexicans were taken prisoners. Let
ters were found daily, proving that
general insurrection was at hand. 1t
is also stated that 80 men Of Captain
Morris company were attacked by
200 Mexicans, while grazing cattle,
18 miles from Don Fernandez, and that
5 Americans were killed.
II is greatly feared that the whole
Santa Fe country will be in state of
insurrection, unless a fresh supply of
troops arrive soon.
The spirit of democracy. [volume] (Woodsfield, Ohio) 1844-1994, 1847-08-21

No news had been received OF any
troops being ordered to Santa Fe, and
Colonel Price was ir perfect Ignorance
Of what the government intended doing
in this matter. He was discharging
his men, or sending them back as fast
as their time expired. The other CONF
pany of the infantry battalion was to.
be discharged on the 9th Of June, and
Captain Dents and Captain Fitcher's
companies in two or three. days there
after. They were to start for home on
the lst of July, and Colonel Prices
force in Santa Fe would then be very
small. He intended to call Willocks
battalion from Taos, and the two COM
panies Of Dragons from Albuquerque,
and TO concentrate his whole force at
Santa Fe. ga 5aE
Lieut.. Eastin was attacked on the
4lh Of July by the Indians. They
came on him in the middle of the day,
when he eas, expected them, and sue
ceeded in taking one mule and killing
another. Judge Brown, at the same
time, lost seventeen oxen. Mexicans
were engaged in this party, and the
second day thereafter number Of them
came into the camp, who were recog-
nised as being from Taos. They made
profession, Of friendship, and said they
were hunting buffalo. t6
The day before Lieut.. Eastin arris-
ed at Pawnee Fork, agovernment train
of wagons was attacked, and the lndi-
ans captured twenty oxen, and killed
a negro man belonging to Moses Payne
of Boon county, within $50 yards from
the camp. A white man narrowly
escaped with his life.
The Indians are congregated in large
numbers on the Arkansas, and commit
their depredations with impunity. IT
is high time, Lieut.. Eastin thinks, that
the government was taking some steps
to protect her citizens and herself from
these repeated outrages. Mr.. Hayden
in charge Of government train OF
wagons, had lost two hundred head Of
oxen.
Lieut.. Love wasmet eight miles this
side Of the crossing of the Arkansas,
going on, on the 10th Of July. The
battalion, under Colonel Eas-
tin, and Captain McNair's dragons,
were met at Pawnee Fork, with large
train Of wagons. -Four companions Of
Colonel Rails Dragons, were met at
Pawnee Fork, with large train of
wagons. Four companies Of Colonel
Ralls's regiment were met on the goth,
It Cotton Wood Fork-Captains Sim
,nds' and Smithson's companies, few
niles beyond Council Grove, on the
list; Captain Simonds was at the
Grove, very sick, though getting better.
The Rails county company was
net at Council Grove; and next day
net four companies Of the Illinois regi.
nent, eleven miles this side of the
irove. Soon after three other COM
anies Of same regiment at Willow
'pring. Some seven or eight of tho
ompany remained at Santa Fe. The
theirs were expected to reach Jeffer-
on city about the present time, after
n absence Of thirteen months.

As might be expected, the escape of Paroles,
our old enemy, into Mexico, has created consi-
derable excitement in every part of the United
States, and been freely commented upon by the
press.
Several OF the public journals we perceive have
stated it TO be the intention of the government,
Immediately, to rescind the order by which the
British mail steamers have hitherto been sdow-
ed to enter the port of Vera Cruz. We sincere
ly hope it is SO for put what face on the matter
they may, they have been guilty of gross act
towards the United States-a poor return for the
kindness our government extended to them
We really hope that our government VIII act
decisively in this matter, and if they have not
already done SO, that they Immediately teach
those gentlemen that the United States are not 10
be trifed with by them or any other nation
There is no question that the captain was ac-
quainted with Paroles, and well knew VINO ne
was when he conveyed him to Vera Cruz. The
displaying of signals on her arrival could not
have been done without his sanction-neither
could the landing of Paroles be accomplished so
perfectly as it was without his cooperation.
If our government act promptly in this matter,
our British friends will learn lesson that they
will not soon forget
