have been concerned in Mexican wars.
The Irisie noche of the war Of Cortez

immediately arrested by most decisive steps
by Congress. Strong and vigorous measues
must forthwith be instituted to show Mexico

men who have persisted in the present con-
test shall be avenged; that the murders and
robberies OF our citizens forthe last ten years,
which were fully set forth in Mr.. Folks last
message, and were dwelt upon with so.much
pathos, but which have since been entirely
forgotten by him and his diplomatic Secreta-
ry Of State, and that unfortunate Of all un-
fortunates, Signor Trist, in the programme Of
his great treaty, shall also be avenged. And
although we have beaten this strange and in
iatuated people in twenty pitched battles, jus

Let this be the policy governing the delibe-

and his administration, who have sought to

There never was a period in the history o
the Wing party, when the moral power ant
justice of a Republican Government, admin
istered on Wing principles, could be more
happily illustrated toward its own citizens
and the Mexican nation, than at the present
crisis, and when the unhappy state Of things
existing, brought on by the inability Of the
present Administration, can be honorably
and fairly terminated. This will require .
