The same letter states that many of the
troops attended mass, as the Mexican them
selves would Not few of them deposited
aims in the almsboxcs, ,placed in the churches.
General Worth visited the Bishop on the
18th, and as the Bishop returned the visit on
the same day, the guards (Americans) posted
at the doors of the Palace, did him the same
honors as are done 10 the American Gene
rails on similar occasions. This has had
great influence upon the class of people
who seemed most enraged against the
herct1cS-" the old women"
BY Il decree Of the 2lst of MAY, Santa
Anna has revoked the one which we pub
lished short time ago, in reference to the
liberty of the press, consequently the power
writing with the usual freedom, is once more
restored to the Mexican journalists.
Santa Anna formed his Ministry on the
goth, by which Senor Baranda continued
acting as Minister of Home and Foreign
Relations; Gen. Alcosta as Minister of
War, and the Ministry of Finance, which
was offered first to Scnor Rosa, and next to
Scnor Rondcro, was refused Ivy both

would have been opened years ago, and
steamboats, would now be seen walking her
waters like things Of life even as high up
as the confluence Of the Tugaloo and Sena-
ka The immense quantities of cotton,
corn, wheat and other crops raised upon ci-
ther side Of this noble stream for sixty miles
above this, would find ready outlet to
market should this project succeed, and the
lands contiguous would be increased ten
fold in value.
We live in an age Of improvement-an
age in which every thing seems to yield to
the inventive powers of man; and we are fast
coming to the conclusion Of the old Roman:
"no,hing is too arduous for mortals to do"
Let US then awake from Our lcthargy and
consider oGr interests. Ii the opening of
the Savannah river is practicable, let us
resolve that it shall be opened Rail Roads
arc being built in all portions of the coun-
try aiiordiag facilities for the transportation
of produce and rapid communication, and
like the river Nile, cnriching the borders
through which they pass Are We then
contentcd to remain idle and inactive
whilst our cntcrprising neighhors arc
marching on TO prosperity

What does it Mean

We have been surprised to learn that the
slave of MIR. Faris Martin, sentenced to i'm
prisonmcnt and whipping, for beating his
master, is still in the custody of the Sheriff
with part Of the sentenc, unexccuted.
What is the meaning of this? Have the
laws of South Carolina become dead let
ter! Is this the proper way to have the
laws respected and obeycd? Those en-
trusted with the execution of the law should
look into this matter. Precedents of this
kind are dangerous, and may lead to fatal
consequences
The Abbeville banner. [volume] (Abbeville, S.C.) 1847-1869, 1847-06-23

Iherc is much speculation in the army
as to what is to be the Iesult-as to what is
10 De the winding up of all this war with
MexIco. Lean see no other result than tho
subJugatron OF the country entircly,-or at
least IN bringing it under the protection of
the United States. AS nation Mexico is
blotted out of the list-the candle Of her
independence is burnt down to the socket.
If left to herself she would in few months.
from her utter inability to govern heself, be-
torn and divided by intestine commotions.
No protection whatever could be given
either life Or property, there are no men in
the country who could make headway
against the torrent Of abuses that would at
ohcc creep into every department, there is
a new and stable government What then
is she to do? This is question for wise
heads to answer. Too utterly helpless to
be left to herself, repeat that the better plan
would be to come at once undcrour protection.
Let some honest and wcll-mcaning mum
there may be few of them left-let some
one Of them be chosen or selected as Presi-
dent, and give him the assistance of few
thousand men to keep down revolutions,
and awe the hungry horde of lcechcs, who
have so long prcyed upon the country. II
they raised yruo or rronunciamcnio, put
them down by the bayonct-pronunca
mentos would soon become questionable
if the precious blood Of those who started
them was brought into jeopardy Give but
one OF their revolutions tragic turn
they have been costly farces hcret ofore--and
the people would soon become sick of them
These remarks have been hastily thrown
together, but they may possibly be as good
as any speculation that can be offered. He
who thinks that il lasting and beneficial
peace can be made with Mexico, or believes
that the American troops are soon to be
withdrawn, is some Que who has not been
over the country-hc starts in his belief
from false premises, and Judges race Of
people by tho ordinary rules which sovcrn
human nature, while it is notorious fact
that they have long since thrown all ordina-
ry rules ut defiance. The Chinese, when
they painted hidcous faces upon their walls
to frightcn off the English invaders, where
not whit behind these people when they
get up their tremendous proclamatlons, and
flatter thelnsclvc into the belief that wha,
they say in them is all true,-that they
really are great people, and able to con-
tend with these whom they profess to despise.

We would call the attention of the Ma
glstrates Ct ;ills District to the decision of
Judge Wardlaw in the case of the slave,
Giles, upon application to him for Il "prohi-
bition, or for new trial." found upon our
first page. We have no hesitation in say
ing, that if the formula there laid down be
adhered to- we shall hear Of fewer informal
proceedings in Our trials throughout the
District.
