BOUNTY LAND DEcisIoE. the
Mexican War, the Pension Office has
ruled that there has been no War, not
withstanding the severe conflict with the
Indians on the Pacific coast. in New Mex
leo. and on the plains. All sppropria-
tions based upon this service. have been
rejected. heretofore. The present Secre.
tary Of The Interior has reversed the deci-
sion OF the former Commissioner. and
states, in his opinion, that the fact. not
merely the name. should govern the deci-
sion. The question. in my Judgment.
is. were these men sctualy engaged in
what was really a war? By referring 10
the bounty land laws, and the various
amendments thereto. il will be perceived
that Congress intends TO provide for all
cases where the circumstances actually
constituted uha: might with propriety be-
styled war, in which life was iminently
impefiled. There is not that close anal
ogy between The pension and bounty
land laws. which would safely make the
decision upon the former precedents in
regard TO the principles which should
govern the latter, as seems TO be in;ima-
led in the report.

there i'm the whole Northern Democratic
organization but a devoted nppendsge to
Southern slave oligarchy9 There is moth
ing of Democracy in its professions, and
as little in its material. A few good re.
main, because they fear if they leave it
they will lose the title to call themselves
Democrats. Conscioss that there is
nothing else, they cling to the name. II
has the sound Of legitimacy. If they
leave, where are they to goY
The answer is plain and simple; be Q
man first, ond never lay aside manhood
to become q partisan. Never forget hu-
manity. He who. under the influence Of
party rage permits himself to tolerate
cruelty even in sentiment, has reason to
fear that he has sacrificed his character
without an adequate return. There are
considerations now bsfore the people Of
