100000 sound, picked men, in the prime Of
their productive strength the annual outlay
required to keep up these armies and the
material OF war is over $500 1000, 900, not
including the value Of land or buildings oc-
cupied by Notifications. arsenals. hospitals,
foundres, schools. &c.. moderately estimated
at $3.50 100000 on which, at four per cent.
interest. the yearly expense is more than
$4,000, 900. To this add the value Of the
labor which these men would productivity
perform, which amounts to more than $3.50
600. 900, and we have an annual war expense
paid BY European producers of nearly $500,

s,yra ANNALS Reply ro GEN. PILLOW

s,yrA ANNALS Reply no GEN. PILLOW
Gen. Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna has
written manifesto. dated in Turbaco. New
Granada, which we find in the Havana
Diario de Ia Marina of the 29th ult.. in reIa-
ton to charges which General Pillow has
preferred. that money was employed by
General Scott to bride the Mexican c0mman-
der and authorities.
These statements of Gen. Pillow are denied
with the usual yehemence and yerbosity of
the Mexican hero. The " infamous calumny''
is repealed with all the lengthy and high
sounding adjectives with which he is so
familiar. "Who," says he, knowing my
pasition in Mexico, the fortune which Ipos-
sessed, and the elevation of my character,
can imagine me capable Of such base humi-
liation as having listened to so infamous a
proposition as is indicated in the statements
Of Gen. Pillow ? And who, knowing, as all
do know, the adherence which felt for the
enemies OF my country--an adherence which
led me to fight the aggressor to the last, can
believe ever stopped to such degradation 7
And even had been wretch so destitute Of
ofhonor and dead to the sentiments of virtue,
and determined to commit SO great crime,
do the advantages Of this bargain into which
General Pillow asserts entered, bear any
proportion to the sacrifice it would have
costp No! the paltry sum he
mentions falsifies the assertion"
The Mexican hero refers to General SCOTS
denial Of Pillows statements, and says that
his own mistaken integrity-his refusal to
betray the interests Of his country, which
should have awakened for him only admira-
ton and respect, only rendered him odous
to bands OF his countrymen, who conspred
against him, and endeavored to take from
him that power he would not prostitute to
mercenary uses. He gives brief history of
these conspiracies, and ends with a general
denial Of Pillows statements, and all other
reports ever circulated to his diseredit.

A gallant act has lately been preformed BY
