IMPORTANT LETTER FROM


IMPORTANT LETTER FROM
COL. WYNKOOP. ..............
We have heard again and again Of the
deep chagrin of the soldiers in Mexico, al
the aid and comfort" given 10 the enemy
by the whig leaders in the United States;
and most of those WHO left the ARMY as
wings, returned homie as democrats. .......
Col. F. NJ. Wynkoop, of the Pennsylva-
MIA regimeni,in letter 10 Francis W. W.Hughes,
Esq, of Pottsvlle; gives vent 10 his feelings
in vein of mitigation thar should 60 home
TO the heart Of every American not lost 10
shame and self respect: Col. Wynkoop,
himself a whig, does iiot mince words
but applies that of TORIES to those who. so
madly encourage Me$ico to continue the war.
Mr.. Clay should not deceive himself in
the idea; that the opponants Of the present
war are not subject to the same charges OF
federal torBism, as those Of the late war with
Great Britain. Never was man more eyre
giously mistaken in such supposilion, than
Mr.. Clay, and all that class of Mexican aiders
and abetiors. We hope none of eur reader.
will fail TO preserve this leilst Of Col. Wyn-
koop.
1t is important in every point Of view; it is
from leading officer, of the highest distinc-
ton in private life-among the first in mill
tary capacity, and of an old Pennsylvania
family, long known TO the public from its
commanding distinction; in the country and
State, where the name has; for a half CEN

from my daily occupations, and remembering
warmly and freshly several acts of kindness
towards me, it gives me peasure to address
you, knowing that you entertain some intel-
est in my welfare. am now in command
Of this military department, and am kept
quite busy with continual skirmishes with
guerillas, and an occasional sharp fight with
large forces that gather between here and
the coast, in order to oppose trains. The
health Of my garrison is good, rnd have
hspes that the great mortality. which has ex-
isted in the army is decreasing. .,,..o..,....
This is hard, laborious; and precarious ser.
vice. Many Of our bes, men have died, and

more formidable enemy than the Mexicans.
A noble and seff-denyIng spirit of endurance
aciuates the men, and complaint efany kind
is rare. Contented to do their dnty, they
risk every thing in the effort, and with a
cheerfulness which is gratifying 10 those who
comiHand, step up readily to any work, no
matter what the chances. 1t is, as / have
before remarked, hard service, full of toll,
privations, and Danger; but it is willingly en-
countered and bravoly endured. Judge,

TIE PoTATo Ror-Mr. Orrin A. Tur-
ner, Of Hamburger, in this county, has
shown us some potato vines with the
supposed cause of the disease which has
SO extensively prevailed in THIS vegetable
for Few years past. 1t is worm a.
bout three quarters OF an inch in length,
which makes its way through the vine,
and is supposed to impregnate the root.
On nearly all the vines was found bug,
and many OF tse leaves bore the marks of
having been stung. Ii this is not the
cause Of tire rot, il IS sufficient to destroy
the potato, and render its cultivation
abortive. We are told that nearly all the
vines were in this condition. Mr.. L.
thinks, from what observation he has
been able to make, that this worm, and
its attendants, have been the cause of the
wide spread disease among potatoes
which has been as an almost universal
destroyer throughout the werld.-BafalO

A SPEECH FROM GEN. TAYLOR.

Al the celebration at Monterey, in
Mexico, of the Anniversary of The Inde-

count of which we will give ia our next,
the whole company assembled on The oc-
casion Gen. Gushing presiding) was a
greeably surprised by aSpeech' from the
cid soldier who has so often led them to
battle and to victory. The following ac-
count OF the incident is given by the cor
respondent of the New Orleans Picayune:
Lieut.. FULLER, of the Massachusetts
Volunteers gave:
"Gen. TAYLOR: We hail him as the
next President ; NAV his civil be as bril-
liant as his military career" This sem
timent was drunk with three times three. !
Gen Taylor rose and responded to this
sentiment:
".Hr. President and Gentlemen
have never had the vanity to aspire to or
look for that elevated situation which has
gust been alluded TO, but if my fellow
countrymen think proper to elevate me to
SO distinguished and honorable position,
certainly shall do my best to discharge
the duties of that responsible position
faithfully. But, if any other candidate is
preferred by the People as more compe-
tent than myself, / need not say that |
shall acquiesce most cheerfully in theil
decision, and shall rejoice that there is
one more worthy to represent them in
the highest office in their gift"
The General then gave toast:
1.-The State Of Massachusetts and the
city of Boston The place where our
liberties were Graded whose sons have
borne SO conspicuous a part in the estab-
iishment and maintenance Of the principles
Of our independence and the constitution
and have gallantly maintained the same

IMPORTANT FROM BRAZIL.

BRAZIL AND AaERIcAN WHALING SHIPS.
Letters have been received at w Washing
ton, ID. c., dated Rio dc JaneIro, ID June.
Our Whaling interests have been attack
ed by the Brazilian government, in a
manner calculated TO provoke retaliation.
Two vessels have been seized for enter
ing small ports on the coast, and trading
in oil for supplies OF wood and water, a
customary practice, and one within the
knowledge Of the Government for the
last thirty years.
A letter published in the New York
Gazette and Times, from the same place,
confirms the information, and attributes
the act TO some offence taken by Brazil.
The writer says great trouble and ex-
pense will result 10 Americans from these
seizures, as all Whalers out, not warned
of the facts, will call for supplies at the
same places, and be seized by tlie aulhori-
ties.
Another New York paper confirms the
above, and states that the U. S. brig Balm
bridge sailed on the 18th for the vicinity
Of the Rio Grandc, TO warn Whalers of
the danger of putting into that port.
Since the Brazilian difficulties first CON-
menced, the above brig has been actively
engaged, and il is said to have rendered
much service to our commerce.
Mr.. Tod, our new Minister to Braid
sailed IN the Ohio, some time since, and
1t IS TO be hoped an am,cable adjustment
and The difficulties can be affected on his
arrival at Rio.

SPIRITED CoMPETITIoN.-AD auction
sale took place in the Philadelphia Ex-
change on Tuesday week, of piece ot
property. The bidding commenced at
$500 by two persoas. and was continued
until 1t reached 81 900, each advancing
So at time upon the other. The parties
were sitting one to the right and the other
to the left of the aucticaeer, causing him
to turn his head so often as he received
the bids Of each, that old stsger as he is,
was forced from fatigue to resign the task
OF disposing Of the property TO his clerk.
The bidding was then continued by the
same persons, each going $5 better until
it reached $4,000. when one of them bid
a cool $500 to scare of his competitor
This failed TO accomplish his object,
however, and the SIS advance was bid
with as much sang 4roid as if nothing had
happened. Neither party seemed dis
mayed, and the bidding proceeded with
out tagging in spirit, until reaching $3,-
los. one of the competitors backed out,
and the property was struck off TO the
most OBJ tlnate OF the two who had con-
fined himself exclusively to SIS bids, much
TO the qualification OF the audience who
had Witnessed the competition.
