WAR WITH MEXICO.

1t is said that the government has in
augurated second war with Mexico, by
invading its territory. Col McKenzy
commanding a detachment of our troops
has crossed the border and persued for
sixty miles into that i'll fated and i'll gov
erned territory, party of Indians which
has been depredating on American cit
lzens, and it is said that even one so poor
and weak as our Mexican neighbor can
not afford to brook such an outrage. That
the administration has ordered this stop
we are ready to believe, aud that the ne
glect of Mexicans, as to the effort to pre-
vent such annoyance to our people, has
justified the President in this step, We
regards as more than likely.
IfthiS be 50, there is no good citizen
who should regret that Mexico has at last
taken fatal step Of omission which may
Justify great and civilized people in
placing her fogcibly upon the car of prog
reSs, and compelling her to come and sit
at the feast of law and order. Merico is
a national outlaw and is liable to the fate
winch throughout all history has overta-
Ken such nations as have failed to pre-
serve the liberties bequeathed them

FORTUNATE.

We learn that one of the Lynchburg
dailies has been so fortunate as to secure
the services of Oliver p. Baldwin as its
Editor. We have seen no public an
nouncement of the matter, and can only
wonder why the fortunate journal should
keep 50 great light hid uHder the blshel
Of private statement o. 2. Baldwin
is one of the very first journalists in Amer
irca and his name, if made regularly
knoyn to the public as the Editor of the
paper in question, would cause it to wear
an immencc coat of popularity at the ex-
Pense of the two others. Whether it be
the Republican, the Il1gamR or the
Nacs we should ike to hear.

How q Bin of Fair Puzzled the
Indians.

At dinner, Whitewasb-in-h his Eye called
to him waiter, who said .'ugh!" as
delicate compliment, and headed him a
bill of fare. The chieftain pointed to the
first item, and said ugh ~ The waiter
said ugh and returned with cup of
coffee. Now, even though cup of coffee
is good thing, it is hardly a meal for a
man. Another interchange of ''ughs ],
resulted in cup Of black tea, again in a
cup of mixed tea. In despair, the brave
psfered alb angry SUCH" that made the
waiter turned pale, and pointed to the last
item oh the bill, evidently anxious to get
as tar away FROM the teas as possible.
The waiter faltered ugh !" and hurried
back with tunlbler of iced tea The
ofhcers, warned by the example and fate
OF Their comrade, attacked the bill of far
In medlas res. One struck pay eat,
Under the head fbroiled, and had an
abundant, IT not varied, meal of mutton
chops, veal outlets, broiled chicken, pork
chops, slrloln steak, porter-house steak,
Boston steak, &c. Combining their IN
formation, the remaining members of the
party wandered over the bill of fare tax
ing every division by starts, and none of
them long. The result was eminenfiy
to the aboriginal stomach, |
which is capacious, and has nocpreiudices |

THE BATTLE.

The more recent actions OF the re-
publicans in virginia are a pre-ac-
acknowledgement of defeat. In the hour
when supreme victory seemed about
TO perch beautifully upon the standard
OF Colo. Hughes, there has been, in
the twinkliDg Of an eye, wonderful
change. The Lewis faction gave a
slight witch to the kaleidoscope and
the prospect tumbled Hike the unsub-
stantial fabric of a vision. Then the
horison presented the unexpected
spectacle of the conservative people 81
Virginia moving beautifully into line.
To shrewd observers there was peril
in the situation. The children of the
royal house of Ham were dismayed,
aud their secretary, Mr.. Jno. w.
Volt, of the City of Richmond, sent
a message to Gov. Wise, asking him if
he would consent TO lead them. Then
there arose visions of "Ebo shins and
gizzard feet" and Notwithstanding
that age has power to temper arpbition
and cool the ardor of ones blood, the
Gov. felt himself sorely tempted and
wrote the following reply, which
leaves the reasonable impression that
he would like the support of the re-
publican party if he could get rid of
the odium Of being its leader.

These are very important indications
touching the coming canvass. That it
was Che recent purpose of the republicans
to nominate Hughes there can be nc
more doubt than of their overweening
confidence that they could elect him.
That they now would be willing to nomi- |
nate Gen. Wise, the same official char

well grounded doubt.
Gcntlemef of the republican party We |
dare you to nominate either Hughes or
Wise We are ready for you.
