THE WHIGS IN A DILEMA.

1t is rather amusing to see the commotion
which has been produced in the whig ranks by
the unexpected and unhoped for reception Of the
treaty OF peace with Mexico, and its rccommen.
dation by Mr.. Polk. They had hugged TO their
bosoms the natlering but delusive hope, that the
war would he protractcd beyond the ensuing
body, to take the responsibility of openly vo.
ting to withhold supplies, yet by every other
means in their power, they have cndeavorcd TO
protract the war, by throwing embarrassments
in the way of the Administration, and holding
ont deusive hopesto the Mexicans. They had
thus hoped to be able to 60 into the contest
as the advocates Of peace, and to frightpn the
friends of the Administration and Of the demo.
cratic party, with the "raw head and bloody
bones" of the Mexican war. They could then
have had the barc.faccd cffrontcry to charge
upon the democracy of the country, the desire
of continuing the war for the sake Of conquest,
and the design of absorbing the whole of Mex
