TIE WAR

Ono of the greatest puzzles of the present
day, has been to discover the why and where
fore, of the Mexitan war. Our wisest men
have expended thdr wits on the subject, and
demonstrated nothing, except the wldness of
their conjectures and the impenetrable nature
of the milestone through which they were en-
deavoring to see.
Some say that it exists by the act of Mexico,
others by that of President Polk and SO on.
Like the potato rot, the only thing known GER
tainly about it, is, that it does exist. Its OBJ
jects are equally oReoped in mystery. Some
supposethat our Government wants the whole
of Mexico, Others that we want none of it. Ii
lis also said, that Yankee enterprise having ex-
hausted all the raw material which is to be
found in our own limited territory, must needs
step over the line, in order to find " ample
room and verge enough" for whiting, &c.
However this may be, there are certainly some
individuals among US, largely blessed with
faith, hope, and charity, who seem ready to be-
lleve that this Polking Of our armies over the
border is intended to extend the area of freedom.
But the majority, less credulous, see more
slavery than any thing else, at the bottom Of
iaatns, tho pabiie Nod halted with much in.
terest the prospect that Henry Clay would de-
Elivera speech on the subject; and high hopes
were raised that we should at last know some.
thing more about itthan the one bare and in
comparable fact, that we were suffering unde
Pits influence. Butthose hopes were vain. he
merely tells us, on this head, the people ouph,
to know, and it is the duty of Congress to tel
them, why, they should continue TO shed thei
blood, and pour out their treasure in support O
this war. WV,
The Delaware abolitionist. (Wilmington, Del.) 1847-18??, 1848-01-01
For the Delapare .abolitionist.

My friend, w. j., asks, what condition
would annex to the enjoyment of liberty by the
freed-manl
would annex the condition that the slave
should not be worsted by the act of emancipa-
ton, II he was old and inirm; worn out in the
service of his master. would stipulate that
he should have plenty to eat, drink, and wear,
the remaining portion of his life,-inimediate
and unconditional emancipation would, in some
cases, deprive him of this. Slavery, bad as it
is, is not the worst condition of human exist
ance. There seems to be kind of horror in
the term conditional emancipation" when
the real evil belongs to g unconditional -
Who ever heard of emancipation" being car
red out and acted upon, without some kind Of

For The Dela,Uare .aboKtionist.

We often hear it asserted that many of the
Slave States, Virginia in particular, would, ere
this, have enancipated their Slaves, had it not
been for the 'reckless and extravagant mea-
sures pursued by sAbolitionists.'
That the errors of Aboitionists prevent
emancipation from progressing as fast it would
otherwise do, cannot be doubted but have
they not, upon thewhole, advanced the cause
OF freedom! Have they, not, with all their
faults, done greatwork for the nationl They
have awakened spirit of enquiry directed
public attention u the subject of Slavery !;
from small beginnings in humble wav, advo-
Gated the cause of tie oppressed against the OPP
pressor, and although not always in the mild
est spirit, nor with the most efficient means :
they have always bPn honest, sincere and con-
sclentious, until now the cause of liberty is
making its way into the legislative halls of the
natlon--into the religious, moral and political
institutions of our cPuntry-agitating and sha-
king the very Foundations of our government.
Is all this nothing! is it nothing to awaken a
nation that is slumberine over volcano, when
every hour Is increasing the danger and lessen
ne the means of escapea Abolitionists, as a

DELAWARE REFINEMENT.

Four colored women were whipped at New
Castleon Saturday week. They received 81
ashes each. A colored man, at the same time.
received 63 lashes. He was whipped on three
indictments, receiving 81 lashes for each.-
One OF the women is to re sold as a slave for
years, and another 90 years. One is dashed
on the back and sold as slave, for stealing
twenty-five cents worth of tallow 1t was
proved that the tallow was found under her
bed. The jury were out all night, and it is
said actually burnt more tallow in finding the
verdict than was stolen.
Samuel ID. Burris, colored man, who was
convicted of enticing away slave from Kent
county, was sentenced to 10 months imprison-
ment, and to be sold out of the State. Will
the Government pardon himl One of the Judges
says the only testimony against him, was Civ
ing woman three fps to get her breakfast, and
we think there are few who would not have
done the same. He was convicted on testimo-
ny that would not have convicted white man.
So says the Blue Hens Chicken.''
We clip the above paragraph from the West
Chester Register & Examiner. 1t is not the
first of the kind we have seen. Our neighbsrs
very justly regard us as wanting in refinement
while such things are enacted among US. We
may add that they might as justly regard us as
