THE MOWERS.

Rushing from out the North,
Wild torrents Numbered forth!
Boding Of strife
And staunchless food

And quenched a nations name;
That name was lost
Till that nations wo

Wrung from the tyrants grasp,
From slavery's iron clasp, :

For his work was then .s
To harvest men
Fierce in his pride aud power,
Yet oh, in fatal hour,
The DlEBircH rode;

Omen Of swift despair!

Where the free blood flowed,
And the Mowers MOVED!

SATURDAYS NEWS FRI ON MEXICO.
The Telegraph at Richmond announces to
us this morning, that the New Orleans mali
Of the 9Th inst was received, but that The pa
pers contained no news whatever from Mex
leo. In the absence OF any new intelligence
we have prepared an epitome to-day of Mr..
Kendal's Pueba correspondence, which will
be found deeply interesting.
The burden Of all this intelligence goes to
show, in our opinion, that there is not the
slightest hope of peace with Mexico. II is
evident she prefers to be conquered by us. The
Vaccinations of the English are limited at in no
delicate terms by Mr. Kendall We have no
doubt he has struck the nail on the head We
regard the denunciation of Ron-payng States
by Lord Palmerslon, as aimed at Mexico. Let
us make peace tomorrow with Mexico, by
which any portion Of her territory comes TO us,
and we shall see Lord Palmerston executing
his new policy upon Mexico by a seizure Of
the rest Of her territory 1t is indeed 10 be
hoped that no junclure will arise which Eng
land may be able to avail herself of 10 leopard
our relations with her in regard TO Mexico
We shall recur to this subject.
To morow's Telegraph, may possibly bring
us news Of a terrible battle between General
Scott and Santa Ana Whenever il does
come, we shall lay il before our readers i'm,
msdiately in an extra. So. be on the lookout
