PEACE OR WAR-TThe following is the conclusion of
long aud able article in Ell RaiGRGdOr, OF June j =
with all this uncertainty aud folly, all the contendIng
parties, directed by laudabe but blind and uniruul
sentiment, iantically cry for war; and the word Peace
maddens them did the instrument of Tinolheus the
great Alexander Peace, they say, is possible; but
how will be possible without Pan without concert,
and with time wasted IN useless quarres, As II
with the Italians OF the Middle Ages except that de-
srOy, desire To destroy, each other, enemies tran
gully take possession 0l cities. and mOless
a peace, they repeat will with opprobrium
and only IN name-wlth what will that cover us
All desire TO fall with glory yet TO seek
DEATH Had such been from the beginning resolu
ton, were II even such to-day, not single lenkee would
tread territory, and should not be presenting
the world scandaous spectacle, exposing
ness, Indifference, aud niermnabIe fantarrOH-
AIDES. We have SAID, and repeat ii, for there
things that be often repeated, the
obstinate partizan of peace, but because that
not made aud that every day there is less probability
that IT will be made with good results. Ii it is be
made, let us make 1t ought TO do, for is the
time to act but. not acting now shame and disgrace
will be the lot Of our who will one day live
gers their native land But, with treaty of peace
properly arranged, their PaIrimony may be country,
liberty and independence"
THE AMERICAN GovERNMENr.-TE Patricia, of At
Iixco has a paragraph which it copies from the New
York Tribune, of the 18th of March.
Ihls of cartridges without balls (he conquest Of

may find adequate place IN the messages of President

The WAY TO COSQuER.-TF From Ell Monitor Rcpub-
cGRO, June ls'Snce the occupation Of the city, they
(he Ameroans) have not made the slightest movement
but they labor necessarily conquer the mind Of the
people, and It must be confessed that the ability which
they show worthy of being crowned with success
They understand admirably the ground which they
tread. Thus, Jaapa, city coquesh and eFeminatc
to speak, they amiable and gallant; here they
believe themselves 10 be IN heTetical city, and among
dnatlea people, and they show themselves circumspec
10 humility and religious TO ianacism. They do not
raise their eyes look upon a woman and if YOU
could as do the manner in which they comply with
the slightest practices of Catholicism and devotion YOU
would be enraged, am, at behOIding the height to
which hypocrisy can be carried They have consumed
the whole supply of rosaries medals. and other baga
churches; aud il is ed6caton see the care they
take to supply the whole world with blessed pictures and
scapularies. "-Lettcr from Peu5ta.
I'VE hope that the good people who have shed so ma
ny crocodile tears the approaching downfall of the
Mexican Church, will not make this
winch prove that the army has been Mexico,
solely for the purpose OF being converted the Catholic
faith
