MEXICO.

A fight took place near Queretaro on
the l4thi inst, Heavy losses are reported
on either side. The liberals were yicto.
rious, and dislodged their enemies nom
their stronghold on the mountain Of San
Gregorio. The engagement lasted eight
hours. The place is entirely invested, and
no Imperialists can possibly escape. Sew
eral brigades have been sent from the cap.
ital to reinforce MAMMALIAN. II Is con-
ddenty affirmed that the Imperialists must
soon surrender to hunger. +
The following is an extruet from letter
from a well-known merchant OF zacatecas
The blockade Of Queretaro was rigidly
kept up. Provisions were very scarce
and typhus prevailing. The result was
considered certain. Tho orders from
JuareE are not TO assault the place, but TO
reduce II by starvation, and oblige them to

A person who arrived from Queretaro
gives the following information to the
Union, published at the capital:
Although Escobedo gave his word to
Joaquin Miramon that he would not have
him shot, he received formal order from
Juarez TO do SO, and he was executed, al
though wounded, in the stable of the Ha-
cienda de Teputates. Escobedo made the
observation relative to the order to exc
cute the hundred foreigners, that the single
act would call upon the Government the
animosity Of the foreign nations. Juarez
answered, Shoot them; what are to me
the foreign nations 2"
The Monterey Periodieo publishes the
following letter from in front Of Queretaro,
dated March IL:
"In few days the place will be in our
power, together with the Emperor, the no
bility and the garrison, for we are besieg-
ing it with more than twenty-four thou
sand men Of well-disciplincd and enthusi-
astic forces, while those in the city are
demoralized and are short OF provisions,
and especially water. This we learn from
prisoners in three reconnoissances made by
them. In these three attempts we have
taken about thirty prisoners, and they lost
about as many dead. The forces with
which we have put them to fight we're at
least two-thirds inferior to their num-
bers."
The Courier du Merique, published at
the capital, contains a long protest, signed
by numerous imperial officers, against the
execution Of the prisoners taken by the
Liberals.

NEUTRAL PAPERs.

Many persons are accustomed to look
upon a paper that is neutral in politics as
Of but little worth. Why, say they, q
paper to live and do anything must have
a character. And so, indeed, ii must but
it by no means follows that IL must have
u partisan political character. To assume
that every daily journal that succeeds in
this country must be the organ Of one OF
the other political party is 10 beg the ques.
ton. We freely admit that every sue
cessful paper must have a well-defned
purpose, and distinctive character, but il
does not follow that that distinctive quail
i,y must be its advocacy of the peculiar
tenets of a political party. The field for
journalism in this country is wide, and
themes and topics Of vast interest to the
public veal press upon the attention Of
the conductors of newspapers, so that there
need be no paucity Of ideas or want Of sub
iects Of great and vital Importance to be
discussed and elucidated, and spread be-
fore the general reader.
We believe a readable and highly inau-
entail journal may be made, which will
commend itself 10 public favor, do good
and be supported, and not assume to be
the organ Of any party or clique in poll
tics. There are plenty Of subjects which
a thinking and rejecting person can con-
slider, discuss and lay before his readers |;
subjects which will interest the general
public infinitely more than mere political
essays And, besides, there are plenty Of
Journals devoted to the advocacy Of party
politics, while there are but few whose
speciality is business, commerce, local af-
fairs, morals, education and general intel
ligence. We do not say that political pa
pers do not devote much attention to all
of these topics but we do say that with
none of them are these subjects made par
amount.
1t strikes us that there is q field to be
cultivated and an opening for journal
that will make local news, general intelli-
gence, and commercial and business in
terests its speciality. For the present we
propose to make this paper such medium
Of communication with the public OF
Washington. We enlisted to make this
city, in a business point Of view, what il
ought to be, and what it is capable oi
being made. We know something Of its
power, its capacity and its means oi
Improvement; and though this power Of
growth and expansion is, to an extent,
latent; yet it can be developed and made
to yield in four-fold abundance rich
harvest, greater than the most sanguine
have ever dreamed Of.
When we speak of being neutral paper
we do not mean to be non-committal upon
any great questions Of national import.
ance; SUCH for instance, as have reference
10 the preservation Of the Union and the
maintenance Of the Government. We
never have, and never shall, ignore our
patriotic instincts, nor suffer any man or
body of men to 60 unrebuked who attempt
TO destroy the glorious Union Of States
which our fathers founded. Partisan poll.
