The from Gen. Scorrs Amy, giving intelligence Of
resumption Of holtes and the perious position Of sol
diers, has produced painful state Of anxiety.
The think Of the Of the present Admnistra
lion in conducting this Mexican war; the apparent be-
comes the awful responsibility that rests upon Mr. Polk and
his advisers not only for commencing it, but after hostes
were begun, for the which il has been conducted
The SUBJECT IN my judgment, has assumed crisis of
terrible moment We have been told all along that the Adj
mnistration was prosecuting the vigorously and led
hope for speedy peace. But what the result Instead
OF having army of 300 900 the command of
General we find him pushed into the heart of an enemys
country with mere handful of eight thousandsens
too INVADER where the most deadly resistance shoudbe
expected to fall perhaps martyr with his whole army
The best blood Of nation has already crmsoned the
battefeds Of Mexico while thousands have fallen before
still more terrible enemy than the sord-the fever and this
all because of the deceptive and highly reprehensbe conduct
Of our Government. The blood Of innocence the wall of
widows, and the bitter tears of pess orphans cry aloud
Heaven for redress and for the administration Of our national
affairs to be put into other hands.

who have supported the managers of present They
think it is high time to forsake the party.
