"Of course Cen Scott always wrote you Is yirtu-

Is merely expressive the fact that there reasons for

We ask the country TO think over this statement.
Ask any advocate of the War why it is not termi'

Merican ouertures for Peace Was there ever
before a War so stepped in hypocrisy and vaiDy
as this
1T is settled we presume, that the efforts for
Peace in Mexico are to be fully, as they already
have bee nearly, foiled aud annihilsted at Wash
ington. Mexico is allowed no chance to make
Peace with us The Peace party is in power
there, but the War party is in power here, and no
peace can be made. But let us depose oar Santa
