circles that the President would declare as the
policy of Tie government in di>p sing OF the
Mexican raids, and loss OF American lives and

taching thereto another stretch OF The Nlcx'can
territory. 1t is intimated that Gen. Mckenzie is

Cakes RIncS.

New YORK, April 3.-Oliver Amcs, %,
has addressed the following to the Evening
Post: In the Evening Post of the 3Oth OF
March | observe the following paragraph !:
1.-The Hartford Post says that 1t is said the ex-
ecutors OF Cakes Ames have discovered by his
accounts that the money he claimed to have
paid to MIR. Colfax and others was IN TACT used
ior his owu purposes at the tune he was hard
pressed by his financial embarrassment. AS
an executor of the estate of the late MIR.
Cakes Ames, | prooouace the above statement
of the Hartford Post to be untrue. On the
contrary, all the information in MY pc. esslon,
both as an executor and an individual con,
yinces me that at the time Mr.. Am@S alleged
he paid the money 10 Mr.. Coltax aud others
he was hard pressed By financial embarrass-
ueuts am also thoroughly convinced that
the payments which Mr.. AmeS claimed to
have made to Mr.. Coltax aud others were
made at the time, in the manner aud Tor the
purpose stated By hlm.
