Tho Protocol 10 the N exican Trcaty-Folly
OF the WING Party.

The Message OF Mr.. Polk, explaining the
protocol to the late Mexican treaty, as tar as
received by telegraph, Is perfectly triumphant.
The conduct of the wing party, in both houses,
on this subject, appears not only unnecessary,
but completely absurd and ridiculous What do
the wing leaders in Congress wanta Do they
want to make "Judys" of themselves? Do they
want to break the treaty? Do they want to re-
open the war I Do they want to add embarrass-
ments to General TaylOr's administration 1t
really would appear as If their object was to es-
tablsh all these issues.
In few weeks General Taylor will be Prosldent
of the United States elected to that high station
principally by the wing party, throughout the
county. The great popularity OF Gen. Taylor,
and the elemen ts of his great success grew ont
Of this Mexican war and Its most important re-
suits. Now, ale the wings ready to abandon all
our acquisitions by that war Are they ready to
repudiate all the glory OF our campaigns in Mexico!
The Mexican war and Its results present one Of the
most brilliant pages OF American history, and no
party In this country can succeed with the people
by repudatng that war, or by seeking to throw dis
grace upon its results.
We are disposed TO believe that the wing leaders
have been 30 long in a mnorlty-so long In the
position of mere agitators-so long representing
the character and playing the part of faut-fnders,
that they do not take good care, and change their
tachcs, they will, instead of supporting and emo
bling the administration of General Taylsr, en-
barrass both him and their party, and produce diff
iiculties where no difficulties need DO. DO, gen.
ilemen, have some common sense.

THx DRAMATIC FUND AssocIArIoN.-The benefit
given for aiding in the establishment Of Dramatic
Fund Association has been very successful. The
amount Of receipts almost reached the sum of three
thousand dollars. The house was crowded with
the respectable classes of society In this city

istiss.
We trust that the managers Of this benevolent
institution will now 60 TO work and organize 1t
upon an efficient and practical footing. The pro-
ceeds of this benefit ought only to be the begin
ming OF movement to increase the efficiency OF
the proposed institution. Every theatre in the city,
before the season is over, ought to give separate
benefit TO increase the funds of charity from
which SO much good may be expected TO flow to
unfortunate performers hereafter.
Apropos of the accommodations on tho evening
in question. One of our theatrical reporters said
some hard things of Mr.. Povey and others, which
had been much better not to have been said. From
the best authority, we are satisfied that Mr. Povey
(who has always been courteous to the press,) and
his colleagues, exerted themselves to their utmost
IN accommodating all that appeared. Single gentle
men--ev of the press-should, on a crowded
night, for public charity, be quite content with
standing room, or peep over short mans
We would, and be thankful.
