The whole number of the Americans
that wern killed in the recent wal includ-
ing the line of the Rio Grande and that
OF Vera Cruz, is estimated at 200O and
the wounded at 1000, Il is impossible
to say how many Of the latter have died
IN consequence Of their wounds, bnt we
should suppose not less than one-fourth,
say 1000, making in all 5000 deaths from

This however, hears but small pro.

LATER FROM MEXICO.

BY the steamer Portland Capt. Place,
which arrived yesterday ftom Vera Cruz,
we hive received full files of papers from
that city up to the 10th, and papers from
the city of Mexico as late as the lsth.--
They contain very little news,
From the Monitor Of the 7th inst, we
learn that on the 9th the diplomatic
corps went in body to the Palace, to
pay their respects to Herrera rs President
of the Republic, Our Envoy. Mr.. Cliff
ford, was the speaker Of the party and
made a very happy address, in which he
congratulated the President upon lis elee-
ton to the position of Chief Magistrate

It's uninterrupted peace aud prosperity-
Herrera responded in fitting terms.
The Monitor of the sth SAYS, that the
Government had not heard a wordmorc
of the military operations between the
forces Of Buslamrnte aud Paredes, though
letter from Silao. dated the 2d, states
that all the troops Were on the mareh
from Gnunaiuato, and would probably be
engaged with the rebels the next day.
Il is stated that Paredrs sent an ambas.

PURITY OFTHE BALL0T.BoX.

PURITY OF THE BALL0T-BOX
Partyism is tyrant that lords it over
the consciences OF freemen, and drags
from darksomc littlaness, men who with.
out any positive merit, claim to be boosted
INTO responsible places, because of their
adherence 10 party measures, no matter
how lliheral, unjust, orabsnrd, It's this
which leads men TO forget their duties, and
substitute party for country, To seek no
ends but party ends aud fear no otherre-
proaeh than party disapnrobaton, all
which not only hinders the true enjoy.
ment of our free institutions, but are cal.
euated to destroy the foundations ON
which they stand. The cause OF popular
education, the right Of free discussion, as
well us mans capacity for seli.govern.
ment, are all nt war with this abomina-
bic domination OF party II inevitably
leads TO the substitution Of men for prin.
eiples, and the worst of men too, instead
ol the best, aud engenders IN the public
mind that want oil confidence in free in.
slItuiions, which some so bold proclaim.
What becomes Of the freedom Of eleetIonsi

Of our rulers, which our constitution 50
