yba,ayer MIGHT have been the opposition OF consld-
erable norton OF our counrymen against the war with
Mexico there a strong probability that henceorth very
few indeed of any American party VIII De 1ound emoar-
RAISING the administration the future prosecution OF the
war There are factions al the north to whom the honor
of the country appears unworthy OF support under any
consideraonwho denounce the constitution seif' ana
who would rejoice our national RUN. ney Will
doubtless adhere to their original preJudces and extend
still to Mexico the sympathy which they have SHOWN
from the beginning and upon which that country Dy no
consideration, has any sort OF claim from any pouoh
of the American people. -
But it is evident that the mind of the country sgeneay
giving up the political considerations WHICH distracted a.
considerable degree up to the present ume nooe reso
luton is going forth that the origin and justice OF the war
must be forgotten and its honorable termination insisted
upon The voice of patriotism is beginning to be heard
above the noise of political tumult and sublime and
holy virtue is at last oveung the idle impulses OF par
tyism Thss OF thankfulness because the speedy
termination OF the war depends upon the unanmIty with
which it is carried on by own country: Talk no
longer of the rights of Mexico to territory which is not
hers-nor of the mpeachments OF American Presidents
nor of the expenses OF the wahe shallowness OF our
resourcesand the prospect of inability to meet the pc
cunary demands of military establishment and our
enemy will feel that he cannot rely upon the chances OF
the ascendency of any party in the United States govern
ent for of peace by which one OF our own States
must be deprived of the richest region of her own soil
Unanmity among our countrymen will do more than
anything else to effect peace. Mexico Will become
conscious of her true position. The insane speeches OF
disappointed and envenomed politicians will not de-
ceive hernor the encouraging editorials OF any conduct
ors of the American press.
In promoting this patriotic unanmity, it was extremely
gratifying witness among the citizens OF Louisiana at
the meeting on Thursday last, praiseworhy deerm
nation to support the administration, right or wrong
We have thus given, without the slightest reference to
poltical opinions example OF what citizens can do
in destroying the animoses of party, in coming up to-
geher to the defence of the honor of country and
Its release from foreign nsoence barbarsm, and extor-
1ion The distinguished gentlemen OF both parties who
spoke upon that occasion were responded to by the
people, not as the political admirers of the President and
his administration but as his supporters prosecuting
the war with renewed as wings or democrats,
but as the disceners of continued hostile manifestations
on the part of our government, until we gam peace.
Let other States emulate the noble action OF Louisiana
Peace with Mexico would be the speedy result.
