The " sshington Union publishes the subjoined
paragraph in an article clarifying the military
Qualities of Gen. Pierce
.tThe following lines are from the pen of J.
II Warland. former editor of the Eagle, and an
officer in the army at Mexico. The piece is en-
titled eThe Spirit Of Nelo England and contains
n notice of most of her officers in the army, Oh
General Pierce he speaks as follows;
s,sBreak New Englands lion spirit!
No: not while Pierce can plunge his steei
r.. Amid the cannon blazing near II,
Wave his bright sword ana onward lead
The courage Of Pierce we do not doubt, but
the poetry which commentaries it is detestable
And. we may add if New Englands "ion spirit
was only to last so long as Pierce could plunge
his steed y it must have been exceedingly brittle
and brief. The great difficulty with Pierce was
that he could not "plunge his steed' in the Vi
cinity of cannon without being plunged" him
self over the head of his horse. But this is in
no way discreditable to him. If peaceful barris-
ters will forsake the black robe for buttons and
epaulettes, they must take the consequences. 1t
is no more than one would expect to find some of
them falling from horses and others tumbling into
bitches 1t is the misfortune of General Pierce,
rather than his fault, that he is an Indifferent
horseman He is now mounted on that fractions
animal, the wild Democracy, and, unless he has
improved in riding, his steed may give him Q
more disastrous plunge" than any he encoun
tered upon the plains of Mexico.

On the 10th Of March, 1847, Gen. Scott ar
rived before Vera Cruz. On the 18th of Septem-
Der, 1847, he planted the stars and stripes over
the national palace in the city of Mexico. Within
these six months San Juan D'Ulloa--the Ameri-
can Gibraltar-was stormed, and the battles OF
Cerro Gordo Contreras, San Antonio, Churubus-
co, Molinos del Rey and Chepultepec were fought
and won. With less than ten thousand hghting
men he attacked and routed, again and again,
thirty thousand of the best troops of Mexico
posted behind the strongest Notifications, and
lighting with the courage Of desperation No
thing of military achievement recorded in an
Gent or modern history can excel the glory of
that march from Vera Cruz to the city of Mexico!
Such is a brief sketch of one whose life has
been devoted to the service and glory Of his
country, and whose patriotism is enlarged enough
to extend TO the whole country Born Southern
man, reared and educated among Southerners, he
hasfought and bled alike for the North and South !;
and to suppose that he could be willing to do in
justice to either, would be to declare the last
forty years of his life but q lie.
Much abuse has recently been heaped upon
this gallant patriot because he declines giving
written pledges upon the various questions which
may be involved in the approaching Presidential
election. We doubt not that several of the gen
tlemen now prominent before the Democratic
party would cheerfuly give pledges Of any hind
10hateVer, provided they could thereby secure
nomination. 1t is not difficult to make promises
and it is a very easy thing to break them. We
could point to an illustrious example in the his
tory of the Democratic party which occurred but
a very few years since. certain Presidential
candidate gave written pledge that he was in
favor of the protective system, and got tariff votes
thereby; but rs soon as elected, became sudden
convert to the doctrines of free trade.
When citizen has been for nearly half cen
tury in the service of his country his past history
is the best guaranty for his future conduct.

Mr.. TyIer,a Letter.

Ex-President Tyler has recently written from
his residence Sherwood Forest" a letter to the
Richmond Enquirer, in which he expresses him
self well pleased with the nomination of General
Pierce From his established and acknowledged
weight with the American people, we regard this
ratification letter as "sign of the times, and
as probably productive of serious results. When
it is remembered that Mr.. Tyler was, within the
memory Of man, conspicuous Wing, the De-
mocracy must attach great weight to this appro-
batory epistle Zip and Ty'' was not hun
bred years ago the war-cry of the enthusiastic
Wings; but mark the changing hand of time !
"Tip" is dead and "Ty" has crossed over in the
political quadrile and "joined the Democrats !"
We are not disposed to quarrel with this gentle
man about his "modern Democracy" for in
truth we care not a farthing on which side of the
cotillon he ranges himself His dance, fortu-
nately, is over, and, having led his partner down
the centre, it is but right that he should 90 be-
low. We are not resurrectionists our business
is with the h0ing, and our whole attention is now
fixed upon the couple about to take the floor

Capt. Rynders and John Van Buren,.

At the great ratification meeting in New York,
last week, the Herald, in its account of the pro-
ceedings, says that Captain Rynders made fun
of some of the speakers, and said that if Mr.. Van
Buren, was able to swallow the whole Baltimore
Convention, and not die of congestion or the
belly-ache, all old sinners, like themselves, might
not feel much alarmed at their prospects He
said that when he did lie, he lied to a Wing be-
cause he thought it was almost tantamount to
telling the truth"
The Captain, we all know, is fast man, as
the saying is; but he is mistaken in supposing
that John Van Buren, had clean-swallowed the
for that. We win let him speak for himself on
this point. From his ratification remarks as
published in the Herald, we clip the following
passage, which, upon examination, will be found
to contain, at its close, very pregnant and sig
nifcant qualification:
"He (Mr. Van BUREN, was prepared to stand
on the platform laid down at Baltimore. rGreat
cheering New York would stand on that plat
form, and he would not stop to inquire under
what vote, or under what influence, it was
adopted; but he would say that he most pnqual-
ifiedly approved of that platform for this cleo
ton" [Cheers.
So his appreciation arises only from the consid-
Grafton of the uses which he thinks can be made
Of it in sfhis election" We see no very absolute
commttal here to the new articles of faith
After the election is over, we take ii, from his
own language, that he will be perfectly free to
renounce the whole affair." if he shall choose to do
so.--PeterSburg Intelligencer.
