be the same, and the same would be
their determination TO fulfill it. They
would prepare themselves, with appre-
hension, indeed, but without dismay
with regret, but with firmness-for one
of,hose desperate struggles which have
sometimes occurred in the history OF
the world, but where just cause and
the favor OF Providence have gained
strength to comparative weakness, and
have enabled it TO break down the
pride of power"
The conduct of General Cass has
naturally brought down upon him the
whole force Of the lerocious Tory Press
of Great Britain. In the House of
Lords, he has been most violently abus-
ed by Lord Brougham. The whole Brit
ish influence will be most powerfully
exerted against this truly American
Patriot. The coarse assaults of his en-
emies will only render him more en-
deared to his countrymen.
"Strict and punctua in his business
habits, plain and aflable in his manners,
with powers ofmind which grasp, as it
were, by intuition, every subject to
which they are applied-united to va
rious and extensive requirements; we
feel that we hazard nothing in the dec
laration that the measure Of his fame is

From the .NeD Orleans Delta
Latest from the Army.

There were two arrivals from Tam
pico and one from the Brazos on TIE
evening of the lst of January.
Capt. Brown, of the schooner Robert
Mills, was informed by Capt. TODD, of
the United States army, that Santa
Anna, at the head OF 5000 troops. was
on his way, and within four days OF Sal
tio; and that General Worth, unable
to maintain his ground against such
overwhelming numbers, was slowly
falling back in the direction of Mon
terey; and that General Taylor, in an
ticipation of an attack on that city, was
Iortifying it at every assalIabIe point.
1t was also stated that General Patter-
son. who was on his march from Cam
argo to Tampico, being made aware OF
the state of affairs, had countermarched
the division under his command, and
was rapidly advancing, by forced march
es, for Monterey.
From Mr.. Fowler, gentleman Of
this city, who came passenger in the
steam-propeller Virginia, and who left
Saltilo on the 18th ult.. we have sub
sequently learned that, previous to his
leaving, General Worth's spies had
come into camp and reported that San
IA Anna was within three or four days
march of SaItiIlo, and rapidly advanc-
ing. at the head of about $4,000 men.
General Worth Immediately sent an
express to General Taylor, whichleach-
ed him at Victoria at II O'Clock, p. M,
on ,he l7,h; and at 8 o'clock, a. m..
the next day, Gen. Taylor despatched
two regiments, the Kentucky and Ten
nessee volunteers, to reinforce Gener-
al Worth at Salullo. intending to fol.
low himself as soon as possible. with
all his disposable force. General Tay-
lor felt confident of his being able to
arrive at SaItiIIo before Santa Anna
could reach there. The whole force
of General Taylor would then amount
to about 10000 men, which he con-
sidered sufficient to cope wnh any
force that Santa Anna could BRING
against him.
To-day. we shall be in recei Of our
correspondence by the Virginia, which
vessel had not come up TO the city at
a late hour last night. when we shall be
enabled to lay before our readers the
full details.
The spirit of democracy. [volume] (Woodsfield, Ohio) 1844-1994, 1847-01-16

Monterey, Gen. Quitman with his
brigade, had left for that point. Gen.
Taylor, in conversation with Captain
Yeatman, expressed the opinion that
it would be impossible to march upon
San Luis Potosl from the northern ex-
tremity of his lines until the RAINY sea-
son sets in June next.
The report that Santa Anna had cut
off the water tanks between him and
the American posts is not true, but the
country is almost destitute of water I'M
less during the rainy season, and in one
part Of the road there is even in that
season a distance of ninety miles to be
marched without the possibility Of find
ing any.
Six American teamsters were killed
recently at Ramos, a rancho of Canales,
by a detachment of his rancheros.
Gen. Butler was in command al
Monterey, with about two thousand
men: Col. Mckee. with six companies
of the Kentucky regiment of cavalry,
at Ceralvo; Capt. Willis, with two
companies of the same regiment, at
Mier; and Gen. Marshal at Camargo,
with about nine hundred men.
Col. McCIung was fast recovering
from his wounds.

From the Washington Union.
The Army.

Much interest has been produced by
the rumors which reached US by Satur-
day nights mail, from New Orleans.
1t was reported that Santa Anna was
on the advance from San LUIS de Po-
tosi, and that General Worth was re-
treating to Monterey. We understand
that no dispatches have been received
at the War Office from Generals Tay-
Ior or Worth, by the last arrival from
Rio Grande. 1t would appear, how
ever, from the following extract of a
letter from General Jesup, received at
the quartermaster's bureau in this city,
that he attaches very little consequence
to these reports. Indeed, we cannot
suppose it possible that General Tay-
lor would have advanced to Saltilo, and
scattered his troops so far from each
other--with General Worth at Saltillo,
with General Wool at Parras, with
General Butler at Monterey, and the
forces under himseI and under General
Patterson, % as to incur any serious
danger from concentrated attack 10y
Santa Anna upon any of his divisions.
We trust, therefore, that we may dis
miss any serious apprehenslons from
any such movement.
Ertract ofa letter from Gen. Jesup, to the guar.
termaSter'S Department, IN This city, dated
BRAzos SAN JAGo, Dec. 20, 1916.
"We have report that Santa Anna is advanc.
ing on Gen Worth, and that he is falling back;
but do not credit it Santa Anna would hardly
follow Gen. Worth with Gen Wool on his flank.
consider the story as mere gossip"
A subsequent letter was received
from General Jesup, on the day after,
VIZ. on The 26th ult., which is perfect
lv silent about these rumors.

From the ~. c. Mercury, Dec. 81.
Important Report from
Mexico.

We have received, through the po-
lileness of a commercial house in this
city, the subjoined extract of letter
written by an intelligent gentleman at
Tampico, and received by an arrival
yesterday at Mobile:
"TAMPIco, Dec. II.
"Advices via Vera Cruz were re-
ceived last evening Of the action OF the
Mexican Congress. They declared
that they will not think ortreat ofpeace
until every hostile foot has cleared
Mexican soil, and every vessel that
lines her coast is withdrawn. | con-
slider the war now commenced in real
earnest. and prophesy that Tampico
will become an American town."
FROM TAMPlco.--The United States
revenue cutter Ewing, Capt. Moore,
arrived at the Northeast Pass on Mon
day, from Tampico, which place she
left on the 10th instant. Since the APP
pearance of detachments of the Mexi.
can army in the vicinity Of Tampico,
there were fears ihat an attack was

From Tampico.

The news from Tampico is not OF
the slightest interest. The alarm ere.
aled by the rumor Of a Mexican force
advancing for its recapture had subsid-
ed; and Col. Gates the commandant,
at the time Of the sailing of the En-,
pressario, felt confident Of maintaining
the city against any force the Mexi-
cans could bring against it. The five
thousand Mexicans which. by previous
advices, were said to have sho wn them
selves in the vicinity Of the city, turn
ed out TO be band Of marauding ranch
eros, who left as suddenly as they
came.

From the Ohio Statesman of Jan. II,
we copy the following "rumors:"
s. FEDERAL TlNpAN NOMINATIONS.
The federal tinpan has nominated the
following officers, amonga long list Of
Associate Judges: For Treasurer of
State, ALBERT A. Bliss, Of Lorain; and
SAMUEL SroKELY, for Supreme Judge.
Some people take this to be a joke, but
we have it from pretty good authority,
and think it is true. Mr.. AR1Us NYE;
father of the brood of banks called
"Nye's SOW and pigs" which was some
time since attempted TO be foisted upon
the people of the State-has been nom-
mated for President Judge Of the 9Th
circuit. Nash, formerly of the Gallipo.
lis swindling shop, was u candidate,
but for some reason he was beaten by
Nye. They are hard pair to choose
Judge from.
"The nomination of Bliss, of Lorain,
for State Treasurer, is complete tri-
umph Of the abolition wing of federal.
ism. He being from Cheesedom, they
rallied around him in opposition to Mr..
Whitehi,l."

ORGANIZATION OF DEMocRArlc STATE
CONTROVERSIAL meeting of demo.
Gratis trom various portions of the State
was held in the city Of. Columbus, on
the 9th inst. for the purpose of agreeing
on some plan for the organization Of
State Conventions. The proceedings
we're received too late for insertion in
to-day's paper, entire. A resolution
was passed that ''the future State Con-
ventons he composed of delegates cho.
sen upon the following basis:
''That the democratic vote of the
State shall be the basis, and that every
five hundred democratic votes shall
have one dalegate; and every fraction
of two hundred and fifty votes and
over. shall be entitled TO an additional
delegate; provided, that if the whole
number Of delegates from any county
in the State be not in attendance, the
delegate or delegates present from such
county, shall have the right TO cast the
vote said county may be entitled to, in
the same manner as if all the delegates
were in attendance; an 1 provided fur
ther. that the Governors vote Of l844
shall be taken as the basis, until after
the next Governors election. when
the next preceding Governors election
shall be the basis thereafter"

CINCINNATI MARKET The price of

are declining little. Wheat is bring.

The Climate, though very healthful and

terry. The Winter, though not severely cold
on this promontory, nearly surrounded by wa
ter which does not freeze, is unreasonably
long; the snow, especially on the high land,
falls deep, keeps falling, and goes off very
slowly. The Spring is late, frosty and cold,
from the same influence which renders the
Winters comparatively mild the Summer Is
short and its nights usually cool, even when

To a Child.
BY THOMAS HOOD.

Love thy mother, little one!
Kiss and clasp her neck again
Hereafter she may have a son
Will kiss and clasp her neck in vain.
Love thy mother little one!
Gaze upon her living eyes,
And mirror back her love for thee
Hereafter thou may'st shudder signs
To meet them when they cannot see.
Gaze upon her living eyes!
Press her lips the while they glow
With love that they have often told
Hereafter thou may'st press 10 woe,
And kiss them till thine own are cold.
Press her lips the while they glow!
Oh; revere her raven hair t. a
Altho' il be no silvery grey,
Too early death led on by care,
May snatch, save one dear lock, away.
Oh! revere her raven hair!
Pray for her, at eve and morn,
That heaven may long the stroke defer
For thou nay'st ive the hour Eolorn
When thou wilt ask to die with her.
Pray for her, at eve and morn!
