We demur altogether to the position that an IN
aeeessary war can be Ju'tyntte IN the sght Of
Heaven, however specious its pretexs and provo
cations. But the Courier in the same article says;

We cannot comprehend the morality oil tn's
The War is admitted to be unnecessary on our
part, and certainly 10 wsged by us in the very
heart of Mexico-therefore Extensively, aggres-
siyely. Not a Mexican foot has been planted In
hostile array on our soil since the breaking out oil
the contest. Yet are TO go on fighting oatues'

we had pushed on the work Of slaughter in order
to get the weatherguase Of Polk & Co answer at

But we have short method with this whole
matter. The Courier, in order to keep up It's end
is obliged to argue that the War is just on the part
Of our Government though in very peculiar man
nsr But never mind that its logic is forciele only
on the assumption that the War is just Very
we'll, then for US and all who believe 1t abominaby'
asrociously unjust there is no other course but to
oppose its offensive prosecution, our adversaries
being Judges Even the Courier says, y the
Wings deemed the War unjust, they ought to have
voted against granting the ways and means at the
outset Enough said OF course those who "0'
believe il unjust will vote accordingly.
