LAST WEEK.-We have past through
the holidays, and taking it altogether, the
week has been one Of general satisfaction
and pleasure. The weather has been mild
and sunny, inviting out all classes, and af'
fording 10 the most fragile an opportunity
Of enjoying themselves in the open air, as
their tastes and dispositions dictated.
The quarterly meeting, that closed early
in the week, was resorted to by many with
pleasure and satisfaction. The march Of
the Free Masons, on Monday, was some
thing new to many Of our citizens. The
chaste and easy address of DR.. Bond, gave
manifest pleasure to the crowded assembly,
and did honor to the Masonic fraternity
The singing, too, was delightful, To those
who were 50 inclined, a Christmas Ball
added no little to their enjoyment. . ].

lue 'futL0HuI 1HteHtS eHceT puOliSneS,

about the war. 1t is more remarkable for
its length than for its patriotism or logic.
The Washington Union alludes to this
manifesto, of the Wing National organ, in
the following manner: 81
And in the first place, we observe that
the omissions Of; this last Wing manifesto,
thus put forth, are very remarkable and
significant. Processing to be the best that
can be said against the Mexican policy re-
commended by the President in his Mes
sage, this Wing demonstration makes no at.
tempt whatever to assaiI any single one Of
the material points Of our future policy
Mexico which are urged upon the
favorable consideration of Congress. by
the President, with a view to the speediest
attainment of peace upon just and honora-
BILE terms. Through its whole eight col
umns Of furious and malignant partisan de-
'nunciation of our government and country,
the AfeNIgencer'S article does not give us
"a single word-much less a single argu-
ment-against the wisdom and the sound
policy of requiring from Mexico, in any
treaty Of peace, a full indemnity for the out
RACES we have endured, and the expendi-
lures we have been forced to make. Not
a word is said to show that this Just indem-
nifty can DC made to us in any other form
than by a ~cession of territory; not a word
to show that the CALIFORNIA; are not, in all
respects, the hest and fittest territory TO be
ceded to us; not a word against the propo-
Isition that a r eaty Of peace concluded
withou: such indemnity would be a dishon-
orable REIMBURSEMENT of all our claims; not
a word to show that the terms proposed to
our Commissioners by Mexico are in any
way consistent with our national rights, or
honor, or interests; not a word to show tina,
the territory in question will not, in all
probability, soon fall into the hands Of some
foreign power if we ~relinquish il; not a
word to show that there is any reason why
we should not surrender New Mexico and
the CALIFORNIA;, at this time in our posses
sion; not a word of objection against the
expediency Of establishing a territorial gov
eminent over them, as the Message recon-
mends; not q word in favor Of the indemni.
|ty-line policy; not a word 10 show that the
mode Of prosecuting the war, urged by the
Executive, is not the fttest mode to secure
a satisfactory peace with the least delay;
and, finally, not n word to show that the
Congress Of The United STATES is not as
fully committed by its past acts, as the
President claims it to be in his Message, to
the whole purpose and doctrine Of prose
cutting the war to the acquisition Of a full
territorial indemnity. On the contrary,
upon this last important point, the MteA.
gencer's admission is complete; for it moan:

Exceedingly interesting intelligence has

November. A terrible earthquake has
desolated Chill and Peru. Several towns

are represented to have been fightful.-
The people, alarmed for their safety, slept
in the open fields. So terribly severe was
the shock, that stones we're thrown from
the bottom of the river to a great distance.
This calamity occurred on the same day
with the one which destroyed Ocatalan, in
Mexico.
