Tm AMERICAN PmsaNrR ~ NENIaI.
The following is the conclusion OF an ariirla
ia the Pieatune oi the 9Th. in relation 10
the prisoners in NeAico.
We have alneady gwen thi. subject more
consideration than such ilfsruu and un,
grateful paliroon as la Vega Is worth; OF
may be- due 10 the defenders OF eHtuscr-
Of his conduct. Bat the mi.oner, lheu.
selves claim all our interest, aud We do
lhnk thai there has been p,lpaa.t aul
gross error in permitting whole anmrs ul
d'sicaus 10 escape upon parole whilst ouc
American Remains a captive IN the hands
ol the enemy. The days ol their dclent On
should be counted and the hours Of their
incarceration scored upon steel.
II is remarkable TACT, Characteristic
II the parties to this war-the lcnicncy
and lorbearance Of lbe Americans aud the
cruelty aud assumption Of MeAIcans-ihat
whilst Mexican prisoner. o. war are feast.
Cd and lionizcd in our cities, American
capiives are immlfcd within the ielon's
prisons Of Mexico; tina, Wills, la Vega,
The recipient OF the unsiinied hospitality
Of our people, refused ovcn to listen To tho
complaints Of American prisoners upon his
relup to Mexico, his aid ds.ctmp, prls.
oner IN this city, holds questions with tho
people ol the county, and that whilst tho
Mexican papers gloal and boast over the
capture Of our prisoners, there il a press
in this city (La palna) which discrcdhs
the fact Of the Imprisonment. though tested
by their private letters, lhrir public r..
rnonHrauco aud by tho declaration of tho
American Consul who visited them In iail.
This want faith is assumed BY la Palria's
editor for tho advantage Of tho cncmy. aud
whrn IL is rocolleclcd that n commission of.
lieutenant colonelcy was given TO him to
enable him TO accompany Gen. Scott to

that the army Is indebted TO ihc gentlemen

Of his fidelity and regarding bis deiea, as
inlquilous, are cnraged against him, and
he cannot al present return 10 the city Of

GUERRILLA NAgvARE.-Sinee the Mex.
leans have determined upon the guerrilla
mode of warfare. MIR. Kendall, of tho Plea
yunc, writing for that paper from Mexico,
recommends Tie raising Of several com.
panies Of TrSaa Rangers by the Govern.
menl, a. the safest means Of combating
successfully this move Of the enemy. w
think lie recommendation a good one.-
The Texans, on many accounts, are ifsl
tho boys for such service. Their adyen.
turous life, their frequent skifmishes in
their strife lor Independence, their long
residence ia the neighbofhood ol continual
danger, and aboso all the bitter grudga
they owe the MeAieans for their savage
tfoacherY and their eola.booded assassi.
nations. in violation Of lhe rules Of civilized
warfare, and even OF tho common claims
Of humanity, constitute lhem the best troops
which could ba used in opposition 10 this
Mexican guerrilla system. \ guerrilla
corps would stand but poor chance against
a band Of Texas Rnnsefs, fitted for The
conflict by year. Of active aud dangerous
service, and stimulated 10 the charge by
fiery sense Of deep and bloody injuries.
The Rangers MOREOVER would bo as well
