R. a. WILSON, ESQ, of Rochester, N. Y. has
just published 70 u!ne on ''Nezico and its
Religi0a," to the collection of the materials
tor which, and their preparation, be has devo-
ted several years, in order that he might pro-
duce work deserving of the public respect
and approval. Among the testimonials to the
merits of the work, which We have seen in the
papers, is letter to the author from Mr.. Pres
eott, the historian, the highest authority on
such a subject, who says:
IN al unpretendiDg form it contains good
deal OF matter quite original. hat portion OF
tie ork relating to the exaggeratiOn of the
early conqnerors, is particularly deserving OF
attention by the students Of our early North
American annals. YOu have dealt with bold
hand, stripping off the fine robe OF romance,
and in some cases, indeed, tie flesh beneath it.;
reducngit TO an unsghtly skeleton. The skele-
ton, however, may be nearer the truth; but yet
il will be hard to prove it. There does not app
pear TO be much inconsistency in the various
testimony OF the old chroniclers. Your strong
ground, therefore, must consist in the contra
dicton afforded by present appearances, to the
staten ents Of the conquerors."
Tie author advances opinions relative to the
early history of Mexico, which throw entire
discredit on the received accounts. He styles
Cortez the prince of fLtibuster0s; as malig-
nautly cruel utterly unprincipled, and an I'M
mJigated liar.
He makes statements equally startling of the
fabulous account of mineral wealth which lies
directly upon the proposed route of the Pacific
Railroad. lie AYERS that in Sonora and Goa
hula there are 'alnost innumerable" oHtcrOps
of silver, sometimes So exposed that the bur
nished surface glistens in the sun.
The volume is neatly Illustrated with engra-
wings, and sold for 81 10y the book sellers, and
by the publishers, Harper IL Brothers, through
the mail free Of postage. -H0chester Paper.
We are indebted to the author tor copy of
the above work, and most heartily endorse
what is said in the foregoing remarks of Mr..
PREsCOTT respecting it. The work should be
read by every one who wishes an insight into
the affairs of Mexico, her religion particularly

Calhoun and DemOsthenes.

In the volume of Mr. Benton's Thirty
Years View" not yet given to the public,
there occurs the following passage relative
to the great debate between Mr.. Calhoun
and Mr.. Clay, in the American Senate
1t is interesting as graphic description of
the great speech to which it refers and
does infinite honor to Col Benton, as the
tribute of great intellect to the genius
and worth Of two of his greatest contem-
poraries, and withal his implacable, polit-
cal enemies. Speaking of Mr. Calhoun he
says:
lie did reply, and at his own good time, which
was at the end Of twenty days; and IN way TO
show that he had "smelt the lamp" not Of Dcm
AIDES, but of Demosthenes, during that time. IL

Mr. Fletcher, of Cooke, offered the fol-
lowing resolution, which was unanimously
adopted:
Res0lred, That the present administration of
the Federal Government, by the appointment
Of ultra sectional men to leading Cabinet and
Judicial otfices-by its open interference with
elections, aud by its wholesale prescription Of
large masses Of the American people, for no
other reason than The support of the time
hOnored doctrines of their fathers, has viola
ted every principle which brought them into
power. 1t has been vaci!lating and insincere,
and has forfeited all claim To public confidence,
aud deserves the condemnation of all couserva-
tive men.
Judge Brien offered the following reSo-
luton, which was unanimously adopted
Resolred, That in the opinion of this Con-
ventiUn, the sen iment of the American Party
