new shape, and will henceforth be prosecuted
with weapons of peace, well as with grape
and canister. This new weapon will be as eff
fectual in conquering peace as the cannon Is
and what is of more Importance, its results will
not be accompanied with much loss of life.
Hitherto, the government has conducted the
war singly and alone; but now, our citizens come
to its aid in the shape of editors reporters, imps
and devils, armed to the teeth with paper, presses
and printing ink. With these materials they
will manufacture ammunition. If the Mexlcans
can maintain their ground in front of the tremen-
dous volleys that will be poured into their ranks,
they are better soldiers than we take them to be.
Several of these literary batteries are already
constructed in different parts of Mexico, and
from the success which attends their manGuvres,
we are disposed to think that they have made
considerable havoc in the enemy's ranks. An
American newspaper is to be established at
Monterey, (New Leon,) to be called the Amer-
ican Pioneer; one is already established at Mat
amoras, the american Flag; one at Monterey, in
California, the Californian; one at Tampico,
called the Sentinel; and are informed that
the original proprietors of the latter have re-
Gently sold out, and are about to construct a
newspaper battery in Vera Cruz
This is the latest example we have of Yankee
enterprise. 1t is decidedly novel for an army to
have in its rear a corps of printers to march
through the breaches made in the enemy's walls
by the cannon balls, and then let fly them these
implements of modern Yankee warfare.
We have great faith in this system, and we are
certain that the best results will flow from it,
The press Of Mexico is tied, hand and foot by the
government, and dare not publish an article
without its being submitted to the government
censors We shall see what effect an indepen-
dent press will have. We shall see whether the
impressions produced by the ISLANDERS and false
hoods daily uttered by the Mexican authorities,
be not soon dispelled, and the people attain cor
rect knowledge of our character, and our object
in prosecuting the war.
If the papers already established, and those
about to be established, were printed in Spanish
as well as in English, the effect would of course
be greater than if printed in English alone.
Very few Of the Mexican people understand
English, and those few belong to the upper crust,
who are opposed to peace, and who lead and
control the masses.
If these papers were printed in Spanish, as
well as in English, they would be eagerly read
by the great body of the people, or rather by
the great body of those who can read, and the
happiest results would flow from them
