side, and knocking at every gate, cannot be
counted upon.
might run on for hours with speculations
as TO the present condition, and future prospect
OF this war with Mexico, but as it would all end
in speculation, shall close with few remarks
which may be taken for what they are worth.
Santa Anna, tired Of fighting the Americans. is
anxious to make peace with them, although
fearful OF openly avowing it. The peace party
in the capitol-lhe capitalists and property hold
ers-are also anxious, unwilling to support the
war longer, and taxed already beyond what they
consider their means. The military are anxious
to see the war continued, as the only means by
which they can support themselves; the leperos,
the ragamuffins Of the country, care but little,
one way or the other, how effars 60, so that
they can steal enough to supply themselves with
blankets, chinguirite, and frijoles, and tortillas
sufficient to support life. The Indians care for
nothing, and they are the most numerous class,
so that they can sell their produce for silver, in
which they have sufficient confidence to bury,
and many Of the other inhabitants OF the country
will follow their example. The priests--per.
i,aps should have placed them at the top OF the
lst-are anxious TO preserve their position and
their riches, although they may look upon us
as dogs and hereiics: and thus you have mere
inkling OF the feeling Of the different parties.
All these feelings and interests-after taking
into consideration that all hate and despise us
you may mix up, and then make out the chances
for peace.
do not know that any one has reflected
much upon this subject, but to me it seems that
this thing of making peace is 10 be more
difficult matter than making war upon the Mex.
leans, and will be surrounded with greater per.
plexilies. Texas has to be brought into guess
ton, other boundaries taken into consideration,
California is to be bone OF contention, ndem.
nicaons and costs Of war are to be called
into account, and thousand other matters will
be found in the catalogue OF stumbling blocks
in the way of an amicable arrangement OF diff
culties. The "three Millions" after Santa Anna
has helped himse(-for he must be thought oil
frst-will not 60 far, in way Of salve or cordial
for the many wounds under which poor Mexico
is suffering, and there will be other provisions
than Wilmot's for increasing the sum.
Let me conclude this hasly scrawl. The talk
as / said al the outset, is now Of peace; but
it will all end in Santa Annals advancement or
his utter downfall. In all his diplomatic ar.
argue his pont-he has been invariably win
ner; at this game, some how or other, he always
turns every thing to his own advantage, or at
least always has so far. How he will succeed
in his present scheme remains to be seen, bu
he should, and probably will, be closely watched
A few days will bring us out Of the doubt and
uncertainty in which every thing is at presen
enveloped, and | shall make opportunities to
keep you informed Of every thing that trans
pires. G. w. X.

THE DEMOCRAT--IMPROVE-
MENTS.

The Democrat is backing water. In the
last number it says:
1--WE believe Col. Benton and we exactly
coincide on the subject Of constitutional eypendi-
lures by the National Government"
Col. Benton thinks the St. Louis harbor
should be improved by the National Gov
eminent. See his letter TO the Chicago
convention.
The Democrat before the last, in long
article on the subject of the convention,
and the Washington Unions opposition to
il, distinctly took ground against the i'm.
provement of the St. Louis harbor. Ii
said: "The General Government may Gre
ate expenditures for the safety of its yes.
sells at the navy yard at Brooklyn, or other
navy yards but to say it has right
to build harbor for ST. Louis, is ridicu-
lousi"
Col. Ben;on's letter had not been seen
when this was written. 1t appeared a
few days afterward, and we suggested that
its grumbing would cease--but we had
uo iutd IL WOu!u TURN SO snort! One
week after denouncing the idea of the
General Government building harbor for
ST. Louis as ridiculous, it comes out and
says: "CoI. B. and ire exactly coincide on
the subject!" We advise the editor to
dust his glasses, and read the Coloners let.
ter again. We think, upon a close exam.
dion he will find that the course pursued
by the party in this State, and our rep
resentatives in Congress, will not harmon.
ize with Col. Benton's views. The Colonel
is almost good Wing on this subject, and
his followers are falling into his wake fast.
We are not displeased at this; we 60 in
for internal improvements, National, State,
and Individual The hide-boun views on
this subjec, are becoming easier. The
people are moving, and the politicians will
follow. We shall not be surprised, but
greatly disappointed, if the next President
of the United States and Governor of
Missouri are not both staunch internal i'm.
provement men.

Corn Sour. Pick out the silk carefully from
the roasting ears and with sharp knife cut the
centre Of the grain lenglhwise Of the cob. and
then with the back Of the knife scrape out tho
heart and milk of the corn leaving the husk on
the cob, have ready as much boiling water as will
make two thirds the quantity Of soup you want.
Throw in the cobs and let them boil about ten
minutes. take out the cobs with skinner and
then add your scrsped corn, salt 10 taste, pint
OF sweet milk to quart Of the soup and table
spoonful OF butter. If butter is scarce small
piece of bacon or picked pork boiled in the wa

the purpose. Those who like cayenne or black
pepper can and either, when served up-half a
dozen good sized ears will mako quart OF soup

Just before the landing Of the troops from
the Pride of the West yesterday, we saw
issuing from the crowd a most martial look
ing hero-one OF the Missouri boys, on
gallant s,eed; he dashed up the levee at a
rapid rate, bearing aloft a large banner
the stars and stripes closely followed by
another mounted individual bearing the
small black flag captured from the Mex.
cans. decorated with skull and crossed
with bones, and he was followed by third
whose horse and saddle were decorated
with skins and furs, presenting a wild and
frightful appearance. The contrast be.
tween the banners is about the same as
that between the nations TO which they be.

RELEASE OF MEXICAN PR1soNERs.-In
one Of his letters from Puebla, Mr.. Kendall
states that Gen. Scott has released some
ten or twelve Mexicans, who had been con.
fined from one to ten or more years. So
long had some of them been confined, that
the original charges against them were
lost. Some did not know their offence.
One stated that all the offence he had ever
committed against the law, was to strike
an officer for insulting his wife. Any one
of the poor wretches, we doubt not, is
better than those who placed them in con-
hnement

..DTCoi- Russell has furnished a long
statement Of affairs in California, to the
ST. Louis papers. The principal effort Of
the Colonel seems 10 be, to place Col. Ere.
mont in a conspicuous light before the
country-and there are those who think he
has rather ovcrshot the mark. Col. F. is a
bold, efficient man, and is entitled to some
credit, but we fear his friends will over
dose the public stomach.

FROM THE PLAINS.

We learn by a letter received in town
from a member of one of the Illinois COM
panies, dated July 9th, at Gum Spring,
that the party of Indians who attacked
Lieut. Love was commanded by NEGRO,
who was set free by Col. Sublette, of st.
Louis, some years since in the mountains.
He is said to hold conspicuous station in
the tribe.
News is received by almost every express
from the plains of some new depredations
by the Indians. 1t is time some rigorous
and definite steps were taken to stop these
acts. The Indians are more dangerous,
and doing more mischief than the Mexi.
