THE WAR FEELING IN New ORLEANs.-On the
30th ultimo the people Of that city were to meet en-
maSSe to proficr to the Government their 'persons
and their money! to aid in chastisng the Mexicans
into peace. The press Of New Orleans assures us
that but feeling animates the public mind in that
city, and that is, to follow Mr.. Clays advice, "to
stand by the country" irrespective Of the bad men
who administer its government. Such ought to be
the feeling of every American. 1t is time that party
spirit should be lost sight of and that the whole
country should, with accord, rise and compel the
administration to wage the war SO that speedy
peace may follow. a ,.n

THE BALTIMORE DEFEAT.

We have no hard words to bestow upon the Wings
of Baltimore, a la Ne,o York Tribune, because they
sgnally defeated day before yesterday though
we sounded the alarm early in September and told
them that danger abroad that their right of suf-
frage would be swept away with n torrent of false
votes. 1t has turned out precisely we predicted
it would unless prevented by the Wings at the polls
In the city of Baltimore there is gain Of 1923 on
the Democratic vote since last year. and falling off
in the Wing vote of 81 votes. No in his senses
will for n moment believe that this tremendous in
crease in the Democratic vote is natural and right
full increase This fraud upon the ballot box is too
palpable TO require proof. 1t stands out from the
canvass in bold relief-an eternal disgrace upon the
party that reJoiccs in success by such infamous
means!
The money expended by the officials of the Cen
eral Government here and in Baltimore We are cred
IDLY informed exceeds thirty thousand dollars! OF
what value is the right of suffrage when 1t can be at
tackled and trampled down by the direct application
Of money-not to corrupt the opposite party, but to
invade The sanctity Of the ballot box by the intrusion
of illegal and false votes? 1t is for the people of
Maryland TO answer.
The Democratic press pretends that this immense
increase in the Democratic vote Of Baltimore is
owing TO the opposition of Mr.. Kennedy to the Mex
lean and to the tariff Of 1876 that Mr. McLanc's
majority of SAL is rebuko of Wing doctrines res
pccting the origin OF the war; &c. If this statement
were true, there would necessarily be heavy falling
of in the Wing vote for Mr.. Kennedy compared with
that thrown last year. What is the fact7 Mr.. Ken
nedy is gamer of "a votes over the Wing vote Of
1876 And if Mr.. McLanes vote had increased in
the Same natural ratio over the Democratic vote of
l8lG he would have been beaten by some 400 major
ity. Whence came the votes, then, by which Mr.
Kennedy was reb,iked for his opinions? They irere
