The Cleyelond Herald, that excellent conserva-
tive Journal, of said and demure mien claims, and
very properly, that the Wing party has past, ad-
mirs that it has no present, but souty afrlns that
there is in store for it Future! The Herald
says, that noac, THERE Is AN APPARENT ABSENCE
OF ANTAGONIST BETWEEN THE PARTIEs," Whig
and Democratic. The Herald Speaking propheii-
caly says. the democrat party will explode, blOlr
up. and then there willke work for fhe whig party
to do! The Herald is determined, therefore, with
freshness of patriotic arior truly animatng, 10
stand still and WAIT FOR SOMETHING TO HAPPEN.
While the Herald is thus watingi firing. nciing,
progressive men will go out 10 battle, and no doubt
| successfully wrestle for the right.
The Herald in conclusion grows faoetious and
runs parallel betwesn :. NJ llerism and Greedy
| ism, The difference between the two aeeording
to the Herald is, that the former declares
that the, world ,cM coon come 10 an end; the lat
ter that the whig party has already come to an
end,'' and then consoles itself by denouncing
:, Greelyism'' as ''a perfectly nude humbug."
The Herald thus standing with perpexed mien,
gazing with desire, at the lifeless corpse of the
late Wing party, reminds Us of the 1.-Two dogs

..To-unorrow's Union viii contain able, care
fay considered, and grave article upon the subject
of our New Mexican nffars. 1t lakes ground that
the conduct of Gov. Trias in seizing with arm
ed force, Mecila Wiley, is an outrage combined
with folly. That considering the weak condition
of Mexico. it would hardly be magnanimous in the
United Stutes to make hostile demonstration. but.
IF the act is not dsavnwed by the Mexican author-
tiles, then the United States cannot hesitate how
to act. The article bears the stamp of authority,
and will attract attention."
lfthe sentiments expressed by the Union ore
those of our government, the war may be regard,
ed as fixed fact. for thu seizure Of Mecin Valley
win never be disayowed by the Mexican anthori
iiesr
Ga the whole, as things now Stand. we may con,
hdentiy expect n second war with Mexico.
The Ohio star. [volume] (Ravenna, Ohio) 1830-1854, 1853-06-15

According 70 this authority, it is obvious that he
believes tho late conquest of Mexico was owing
to her civil dissensions and that with his military
genius. and the force of central despotism ath his
disposal, he can restore the honor and perhaps
regain the territ ry which Mexico has lost. We
believe this error, compounded of vanity and mall
evolenos, will cost him his throne aud perhaps the
qaod resiat of his unhappy country.
The Ohio star. [volume] (Ravenna, Ohio) 1830-1854, 1853-06-15

"The administration is re solved to sustain the
position Of Mr.. Lane. Negotiation is dscai'ned !;
the Mecilla is to be assumed. If the seizure be
resisted, as it is morally certain it will be. hosil
ties are counted upon; and then for all the cir
cumstance of glorious Gen. Pierce certain D.
iy advances upon the alternative with his eyes
opeu."
In this connection the following teegraphie des-
patch. which we find in the New York papers, is
worthy of special notice. The Union is well pos
ted in the matter;
