A s"SCENE" IN MEXICO.
Extract from letter from an officer at Buena
Vista, dated September 9th, ls47, to his friend in
this county:
"Quie interesting scene occurred in the Inspector Gem
erals Office yesterday About twenty Mexcans had been
rested for numbering Of the Arkansas cavalry. Not hav
ing sufficient evidence to convict any of them, Cen Wool
ordered eight be selected from the crowd fc0 Of whom
to be shot unless they would the murderer Ac-
cordingy they made sort of lottery from which the Mexicans
drew for their lives and curious spectacle was to see the
poor eooS come up and themselves before drawing
There several in the provost guard for various Offences
and expect some fine morning shall have time Of
hanging or shooting.
On the curiosity" of the war he remarks
1" Curious trade, this war and while speaks Of it
there great many curious things about IT, IL is curious
that Government is at with Mexico, and is curious
what they fighting about II that many fine
looking fellows should be anxious volunteer to fight about
something they know nothing about and still less and
not the least thing about it is how the devil
to be out here, three thousand miles from home, and egh
teen miles from any place. sitting in tent writing letters
upon table stuck up on four crooked sticks"
As to the sickness Of the troops he says:
9" The North Carolina regiment was paid off the last Of
August muser-rols made previous and almost
every fifth had died since The Mississippi
gment has suffered stl more Companies that into
the field eigh,yive and ninety strong, number
thirty parade. These things viii rob war
Of some Of the brilliant gems with which newspaper para
graphs have decked it,"
REMARKS By THE NEW YORK WRITER.
The above is but faint sketch Of few Of the evils Of the
Mercan Our officers estimate that 10000 have
persisted by disease and battle Dreadful is the responsibility
of those who have caused the unmey deaths of many
young men, and induced the ruin Of thousands by
broken constitutions and the bad habits often acquired in
military life Give US back young men, ye false Demo-
cratic speeche and prophets who said that the annexation
Of Texas would produce The loss Of hundred
millions Of dollars in the uiiless effort ito conquer peace
is Of little consequence compared with the unmcy deaths Of
many Of young men, and the sad effect which
generally has upon those who survive.
You cannot restore those who dead to their heart
stricken relatives and friends but the Ering be. In
stead, them of urging this "cous and unnatural
fare against ncighborng Republic, until twenty thousand
human victims shall be offered up to MoIocH unite
with the friends Of suffering humanity in petonng Con-
gress to put end to this speedily possible.

will be able to supply the demand. And the same
pains and care will be taken that these celebrated
Lozenges be made as they have always been, in
order that those who depend upon them may not
be disappointed in their hopes. He knew when
he commenced the manufacture of the Worm Lo-
senges, that they would supercede the use OF eve
ry other vermifuge, as the Lozenge is cery p cas-
ant to the taste, speedy in its effects. well as
certain, and the quantity required to effect per
feet cure is very small. These properties in con-
neXon with the fact that they sold for 25 cents
per Box, thus placing them in the reach of the
poorest man in the land, has not only caused them
to take the place of every other vermfuge ever of
fered, but also rendered them popular to the COM
