We think The general sentiment OF The coun-
try is now in favor OF the prosecution OF the war
with Mexico, with increased vigor, and in a
manner that will make il plain 10 the enemy thai
our good nature is not longer 10 be trifed with.
In The negotiations which have just closed, Mexi-
CO has leaned upon our forbearance, SO far as 10
claim indemniication for the loss OF Texas, and
to claim as The boundary OF that State a line tar
Norh CT that which her own authorities have
heretofore recognised. Because We have spared,
where We might have sacrificed, and hal regard
for her pride when il might easily have ceen
hnmble3, she has seemed 10 consider herself The
victorious party, and has treated US as though we
were as weak and harmless as she is cowardly
and bombastic. There is but onc way of setting
her right on This and other points continually
forming, or already formed, in line quarrel be-
tween us. We have shown her that sha is in
The wrong; We must now show her that we will
submit. 10 the wrong no longer-l hal she must do
right, or suffer more terrible consequences Than
have yel resulted 10 her from This war of her own
commencing. Every step Of our progress, here
alter, should be al her expense. She should be
made 10 feed and clolhe, and even pay our SOL
diers Tor their time OF service. She should be
taught at once that we will pay her producers,
her capitalists, or her merchants, no, one farthing
more, Till the terms we have offered her, or OH.
cs based on justice are accepted. We should Tell
her in plain terms tina. We can hear no more
about decentralization for Texas or The Nueccs as
a boundary-thal, on The other hand, we shall
claim 10 be Undermined Tor The expenses o. the
war, in money or territorv-and that hereafter,
unless she shall incline her ear to reason, and
herself make honorable offers o! peace, we shall
repair no injuries TO the properly Of her citizens,
