From the Mexican Government paper,
Santa Ana,s War Address.

The President Provisional etMe Republic and Com
nranaer-in- Chief Of The Army 10 Tie Nation:
GENTLEMEN: The enemy, availing himself OF idle
pretexts, has determined to commence hostilities
upon your beautiful city. Presenting to be dishear-
tened and Inundated by the reyerses Of fortune, he
expected that / should subscribe treaty by which
the territory of the Republic would have been
TALLY reduced and the Republic covered with shame
and ignominy MeXicans do not deserve fate 50
ignominious, and having been called upon sponta
neously to direct their destinies have felt It my du
ty to RESPOND with all loyalty to their signal nurk Of
confidence, preserving those precious rights which
cannot be alicnated, and thus affording example
of energy and firmness which are the glory of ma
tons.
The enemy had proclaimed that they would pro-
pose peace honorable for both nations, and j,
became duty TO listen to them, that their reache
ry might be made known. Their propositions and
all the sequel of the negotiations are TO be published
so that the civilized world may see that we were
ready sacrifice all that honor would permit us
to sacrifice; and that the other hand our enemies
set up measureess pretensions, which would have
destroyed the Republic and converted it into mise
nibc colony of the United States To such audaci-
ty could oppose nothing but our frmness and
our valor ...',,
Mericdns! You will find me, as ever, leading In
your Defence striving to free you from heavy yoke
and to preserve your affairs from infamous violation,
and your daughters and your wives from the eXtre-
nifty of insult. The enemy raises the sword to
wound your noble fronts; do you draw il likewise to
chastise the rancorous pride Of the invader.
Mericans! Forever live the independence of the
country. Es.@e

To The Editor Of The National Wig.
Cause OF the Defeat In Marylnnd

SIR: have been credbly informed that clerk in
tho Treasury Department, who may not be any rela-
ton to Judge Lynch, took on with him to Baltimore
some thirty-odd men, employed on the Smithsonian
Institution, for the purpose of voting the Locofoco
ticket And, also that the bar-keeper of grocery
in this city whose proprietor has been for years the
recipient of Congressional favors in the Capitol did
the same thing, under the pretenec that Baltimore
was his proper place of residence. This fact ought
to be inquired into; and, If found TO be true, which
is supposed is 50, then such frauds ON the rights
and liberties of sister State ought to be punished
severely.

We understand that the War Department has de-
termined TO raise two new regiments forthwith-one
from Tennessee and the other from Michigan. There
are ten more companies in East Tennessee who have
offered their services than could be accepted under
the last rcqusition As these companies are still
anxious to serve till the Government had finally dis
posed OF the subject, they will constitute one of the
regiments which are now called for. Thus they will
be better prepared TO march against Mexico and take
the field than perhaps any other regiment that could
be called out. The volunteers of Michigan have
manifested the greatest eageress to their
try; and the other regiment is therefore, to be or
ganised in that young and patriotic State Union

concluded treaty with France by which we OBJ
tanned five millions of dollars, paid into the Treasu
ry of the United States, in satisfaction of certain
claims of American citizens for spoiations and inju-
ries committed against them by French authorities
Every cent thus received was distributed among the
claimants, and the Government never charged the
fund with even the salaries Of the commissioners ap-
pointed TO distribute the amount ~.

We understand that letters have been recently re-
ceived from Major Hobbie, who will probably return
to the United States in the Washington steamer His
last letter was from Bremen. He was then on his
way to London.
He had made the most satisfactory arrangements
in Germany for the accommodation of our steamers
and the transmission of their letters
His arrangements with France were not positive
ly concluded; but he hoped to find satisfactory an
swer to his propositions to that government on his
return to London.
He had found very conciliatory spirit in most of
the English statesmen-in Lord John RUSSELL for
example, and Sir II. Peel; but the superintendent Of
the Post Office Department had felt some difficulty
in acceding to the terms until the meeting Of Para-
ment. A proposition had been made during the ab-
sence OF Mr.. Bancroft in Switzerland, to Mr.. Brod-
head the secretary of legation, for temporary
pension Of the order Of our Postmaster General in
relation to the letters despatched to Canada but Mr.
Brodhead had declined acceding to it, unless The
British Post Office would also do away with the in
equality in tho postage of letters landed in England
from our steamers. 1t was hoped that the liberal
spirit of the government would ultimately remove
all difficulties on the subject, and bring about
rangement satisfactory to our government.

anccdote told by Mr.. Jefferson, that in the Con

the high officers Of the Government; and the pro-
position met with favor. The discussion of the sub
ject had gone on for some time, when Dr. Franklin
arose. and with great apparent gravity, remarked
"that as this matter seemed TO be seriously enter
