there could be no effective measures taken to save
the building and its contents 1t is supposed IL

Above this were the spinning rooms and the
dressing room, the building being four stories

all their contents, the progress oflhe fire being SO
rapid as to preclude the possibility of entering
the looms after il was first discovered. The
lower stories, occupied as carding and weaving
rooms were unbarnt bat SO completely flooded
with watet that the machinery must be almost a
total loss.
The actual loss of property by the above fire is

vasian OF Mexico, the latter to counterfeit the ndu
ence Of that anti-slavery sentiment which might
prevent such result. There is not well informed
man in the country who believes that Great Britain
would involve herself in a war with MS, upon the
contingencies declared in the Journal of Commerce.
The maintenance Of her peaceful relations with this
country are of too much vital importance her own
people for her to hazard the descriptions of them,
either Tor the sake Of Mexico or Spain. The usual
course Of Great Britain has been to cunciliate and
bear, rather than to quarral, with our government
Although the laws of nations, and her own treaties
with this country, have heen set at defiance by
South Carolina, she has patiently borne with these
things for the sake of the trade, upon which her
manufacturers sO-nuch dependent. II is not very
probable that she would hide herself behind the
skirts Of Santa Anna and Spain, r order to pick
quarrel with her relative, and substan-
tal friend. IL go 10 war with Mexico we will
do SO more from our cupidily and consciousness
of being able TO whip her Than from any other cause
We have been magnanimons towards Mexico-very
and we do not mean to be any less in future
that's plain. The old story Of the wolf and the
lamb contains the whole moral of our attitude to-
wards Mexico.
