Betty Watson still rules the roast of the little king
dom of Bavaria. The Paris correspondent Of the
Ledger says
In Bavaria a revolution effected by Lola Monies
alias Betsy Watson, the notorious paramour of the old
dotard King. To please a fifth rate dancer, who Is
not even remarkably handsome, except that she has
dark blue eyes and black hair, Lewis, Of Bavaria, has
dismissed his Jesuit ministers, telling the archbishop,
in remembrance of the fact, that the patron saint OF
Munich is lgnatus, of Loyola that he is willing to
let him have Loyola provided His Eminence will give
him Lola IA very dgni6ed reply, no doubt, on the
part Of Catholic sovereign to the head Of his church
The Queen has left the capital and the Crown Prince
has also gone travelling; but the King has dis
missed his Jesuit ministers, placed the portfolios in
the hands of moderate aud partly liberal men, and
the people shout for him, and applaud him in the
streets and at the theatre. ftese signs do not show
the rottenness of the social edce of Europe, the per-
feet anarchy in morals, religion and politics. then il
is impossible to read the times. Germany is on the
eve of rcvolution-we viii trust that viii be less
bloody and conducive to the amelioration of the

Senior Pedro Maria Anaya, the new provisional
President of Mexico, has issued address to the sol
diers which concludes thus
''Soldiers The moment of trial has at last arrived
it will neither be long doubtful, BECAUSE in order
to triumph, only need follow the footsteps of tie
nation from which we are descendants. Spain saved
herself in 1905 because she entered into peace
or agreements with her invaders. Let initiate hei
constancy, and shall be saved God and liberty =
All the speeches and public addresses breathe a
fierce and determined hostility against country
and exclude all thoughts of peace. A guerilla war;
and one Of posts, is advised by the leading members
of Congress.

Taylor commander-in-chief of your army and navy.
But if 1t is the design of the people of this country,
to pursue the even tenure of their way under the con-

whose whole political life is as familiar to us as
household words, and under whose counsel and wis

whom we know nothing but his in invading a
neighboring republic, at the head of army which
has marked its track in innocent blood.
| We know nothing of the political opinions of Gen.
Taylor. He may be a whig-he may be in favor of
a protective tariff of national bank, and all other
measures advocated by the wing party, even down TO
the Wilmot proviso; and yet would take in pre-
ference whose whole life is earnest Of what he
has been what be is and what he will be under any
and all circumstances. Taylor may be available
Tyler was so considered. We expect to have in our
candidate other qualification than draiabiiiy.
We were deceived once-shall we be again!
We have our individual preference among the per-
spoken of candidates for the presidency. And
that preference is CORWIN of Ohio. There is nc
doubt about his political sentiments. But we have
not to speak further this matter, ant

The War Department.

The New York Sunday Nelrs, edited by Major
NOAH, pays the following just and well earned COM
pliment to the able and efficient head of the War
Department. Secretary MARCY is emphaticaly a
working man. His position has been one Of great
labor and responsibility and it is a matter of high
qualification 20 his friends that he has been found
fully equal to it: =.
+" We look with wonder upon the operations of The
War Department since the war, and the immense
amount Of labor it has accomplished within the last
III months. Unprepared for the war, $4,000 men
have been armed and equipped mustered into service,
and sent with immense stores Of cannon, powder,
ball and provisions, distance of nearly 1000 miles,
in strange country. Another army despatched
towards California = more than abundance of all
kinds of stores and provisions shipped thousands
miles aud hundreds OF wagons procured for trans
portation-battes fought-victories notwithstanding
parties, Shells mortars, howizers-snd every thing
pertaining y war prepared in due and in
abundance We have conquered ten times more ter
ritory, and fought desperate pitched battles in
eleven months, with less than 10000 men, than
France did in Algers with $4,000 veterans in seven
years Is nothing due the energy and vigilance of
the War Department for the preparations which have
accompanied these victories!"

PARTIES IN MExlco.-The N. o. Delta translates a
letter sent to La Pdtria from Mexico which contains
the following paragraph descriptive of the different
factions into which the people of Mexico are divided
"The parties which at present, like MOTHS in
cessanty feeding the prosperity of Mexico, may
be divided into FIVE or six factions. There is the
war party, who are not only in favor Of war, but
of conducted with decision, energy, and real
earnest There is the peace party, which is DESTROYS
of effecting accommodation with the United
States, even at the sacrifice of large portion of
their territory. Another party-that of the clergy
hate the Americans as heretcs and .JelcS, but they
are unwilling to open the purses of the church to
contribute to prosecute the against the enemies
of their religion" Gomez Farias has party,
which is in favor of hypothecatng the property of
the church, to raise funds to carry the war. This
party is weak, for Santa Anna publicly repudiates it,
though it is said he secretly encourages their design
Lastly. there, is party, which has always existed
considerable extent in Mexico, intent upon selfish
purposes, disregarding the circumstances of the
State-in peace or in war, regarding nothing but the
promotion of their own self interest and ambition.
This party has seized the present occasion as afford
ing opportunity of promoting their interests en-
tirely obvious of the calls of PATRIOTISM
The last named "party" seems very much TO re-
semble the wing politicians of the United States.

Gen. ScoTT is of opinion that the capture of the
Mexican capital will not secure peace but that mil
tary establishment of 10000 men will be required for
some time. The revenue derived from Mexico will
more than pay the expenses of all operations in that
country 1t is supposed that he will wait for further
forces, before pushing beyond Jaapa at furthest,
