[Correspondence of the Herald.] Maracorpa, March 81, 1842. The Position of Texas—The Conduct of Mexico to- wards that Country—Call on the People of the Unit- ed Stutes and Texas. Taxians Your soil hasbeen desecrated by the unhallowed feet of the ruthless and barbarous mercenaries of that arch-fiend in human shape, Santa Anna, the dictator of Mexico; at the same moment three hundred of your fellow-citizens are laboring in chains in the city of Mexico at the most servile em- ployments, which the most mischievous invention can hatch, to degrade, to humiliate, and to torture. Humanity is shocked at the treatment they have, and are now receiving at his hands, and shall we, who have the endearing connexion with them of fellow-citizens of a free Republic—shall we, with the apathy of an enlightened people, incapable of estimating the blessings they are now deprived of, and which we now enjoy, reaign them to their pro- tractad sufferings, their cruel fate, which is literally death by inches, without making a united, a despe- | rate fort for their liberation and restoration to their friends and homes? Shall we not make a united, a desperate, a mighty effort to punish the late hostile Mexican incursion into our coantry ? Not gontented with glutting his inhuman vengeance on die unfortunate survivors of the ill-fated Santa Fe expedition, this savage leader invades the sane- tity af the tomb, and with a sacraligious and lying tongde, pronouncing your fathers robbers and thieves ; the citizens of our father-land are alwo, by this disgrace to our common nature, treated with the same brutality as our brethren and fellow-citizens— and despite even, in some instances, of the pusaports of the acknowledged agent of his own government. Shall the bad faith, the treachery, the perfidy, the murders of this iniquitous monster still go unpunish- ed? Shall not rather our whole people, who haye been so often duped by his arts, be aroused, and proceed against him, until they have swept him from tne earth, and made to be extinct the savage nation of which he isthe chosen chief? ‘The en- lightened state of the human mind in the nineteenth centary, forbids that power should continue to be vested in hands, whose only use of it has been ite abuse, by degrading, oppreasing, and torturing hu- man nature. 1t would be acting traitorously to our own cause—to its best interests—to the manes of our fathers—the honor of our native country, and humanity, were we not in our might to arouse in their defence, and proclaim to this proud boaster and feveller in human misery and its degradation, that, in place of allowing him to plant his eagles on the banka of the Sabine, we will, with the Divine aid, plant our banner, with the single star, on the battlements of the Montezumas. ‘The present is, by Divine bleaming, a propitious moment. Indeed, it would seem as if appointed by the Divine dis- poser, that our arch-enemy should at such a time commence his attack upon our frontier, when the United States are full to overflowing with provisions for the sustenance of an army, and have also, from the distressed state of commerce there, a large number of the population of their eities unemploy- ed; and they have motiyes, not of a secondary nature to those of the ‘Texians, in the extermination of the exeerable ‘libeller,” the traducer, and the villifier of their fathers, their country, and themselves. It is ardently to be hoped and believed, that the people of the United States, whojhave been thus furnished with just cause of de- testation, and utter abhorrence of this cruel and vil- laingus hibeller, and who are our kindred by birth, will rush like a mighty torrent to our aid in #0 holy a wérfare, capo sant appease the insulted epirits ot their sainted sires by hurling from his boasted emi- nence this unhallowed reviler of the peaceful dead. It is considered that at this junctere the vocation of the buebandman is of a vital importance to the peo- ple of Texas as that of the soldier ; for should agnicul- ture be negleeted, so that provisions for the eupply ot our entire population for the ensuing year would have to be imported, it would cfecteally break u the country, which would have to be abandoned, for moat ol habitants are utterly unable to meet so heavy an expenditure. It ie, therefore, much to be desired, and eminently essential, that in draft- ing or foreing ont the mili that due regard be had to this all important consideration. Harvey Krnpnick. Tros. Srewarr. Mobile. [Correspondence of the Herald.) Motte, April 25, 1842. Farenp Bensett— I have but little of interest to communicate, but such as it is you shall have it. The Balloon, which was to have taken three persons on a voyage of dis- covery above the clouds, failed to take one for the lack of sufficient gas; it got entangled, and was badly torn. Somebody suggested to the wronaut the propriety of putting his head in the balloon next time. An elopement came off a few days since. Miss K. could not obtain the consent of her Ma to wed Mr. M., #0 she ran away, and was married without it. I saw the man this morning: he looked like a dancing jack on strings. nor Nagle gave ‘two concerts in Mobile last week, arsisted by Mra. Sutton. He could have drawn full houses for a week. He is certainly the greatest treat we have had this winter in the ie of music. More than half of hia audience were ladies. Mobile bonsts of many fine forms and pretty faces. It isa y for me to look at them, for I can’t‘ dress i do you know that an expert “‘ aallad drese- he use a litle sweet oil and some perseverance, can take a lady’s heart by storm, I love to “ dreas sallad” for the Tatien, but the “ Notary” says that it shows a leaning towards something “green,” #0 I rave up the business. There are so many “ sallad ressera,” and the young ladies are eo ‘* smart,” that an ordinary man “can't shine.” The “deacon” says that the young ladies at the North eat chicken giz- zarda for the purpose of making themselves delicate. He iaa “northern man with southern principles ;” and I think he must have a sore place, or he would ot slander the ladies thus. ‘‘ Stationery” thinks it “Fowl” busines, anyhow. The business of this season is about done. Ex- change on New York is steadily improving, and I hope will continue to improve. “Give us your idea of what we ought to do for the improvement of Alabama money. | will write ry fanything new turns up. _ Y Spanner. Loutsville. (Correspondence of the Herald.} Lovisvin April 20, 1812. Business and the Herald in Louisville—Newspapers— Doctore and Druggists—Law and Lawyers. Dar Bennett :— Amidst the general depression of business in out country, and the gloom and despondency that per- vades all ranks of society in our romantic “city of the falle,” occasioned by the unfortunate failures of our business men, expectation is en tiptoe, for the arrival of the “Uerald,” to read your opinion in regard to the best expedienta to be adopted for the alleviation of this distress. The rush is always great to the post office at the hours of opening the eastern mails, and the desire such, to receive your paper, that the bundle your xetive and worthy agent receives, is soon distributed. This speaks well for the reception of your paper. Succees to Gordon Bennett, the independent politician and faithful ad- vocate of the rights of freemen. I suppose you are well acquainted with the cha- racter of the presses of thie place. Notwithstand- ing your knowledge of them, I take the liberty of esting afew items. There are four that take fide in politics. Two of these, of whieh J will now only speak, are devoted to the advocacy of lo- cofocoism. For a long time the locos supported but one paper, edited by the talented Shad. Penn, jr., who has left this. State and assumed the edito- rial chair of a paper in a neighboring State, ‘The party, ambitious to supply this vacancy, by number, da Syn, and thereby obscured the e of the ‘a, which only now can shine in borrowed rays. Its friends are despairing, and fear that they willsoon have to sing the requiem parodised, that was sung to old Father Grimes. It will run thus : Ol Fathor Bluff ix dead and gone, We ne’er ahall see him more, Ho used to wear Tom Hood's big coat, All buttoned down before, &c. The Jews have retuned to their father land, and lon lost home. ‘The reformers, and the numerous sects which have sprung from them, have seen the error of their ways, and, like the “ prodigal son,” repented and returned to the fold. In fine, the first and oni rf true religion now prevails, and a Roman Pontif!now The party have called their Pope, (not like a sect } rules supreme. Byery thing in this country seem of religious fanatics with their Pope to take charge | fast merging into a state of perfection which never of their souls, and with the Key of Heaven to un- | before was attained by any people; railroads are lock its gates for the admission of his followers) to take charge of their luminary, and with the key of locofocoismy, to distribute on their favorite prin- ciple, ‘to the victors belong the spoils.” Mental thraldom has had its day, and may you, friend Ben- nett, continue to condemn political agrarianism and levellensm, I promised to say nothing of the other to political papers, and will only under this head, add that there are several other amall_but worthy papers devoted to the cause of moral reform. The mercantile business of our city is dull, and our merchants tulle of nothing but past and pros pective failures. Whilst depressed pecuniarially, they effect to be exalted. in spirits. Such “ fantas- tic tricks do they cut before high heaven.” One of them, whilst on as bad business as can be followed now, that is collecting money for long standing ae- counts, endeavored to gull a poor ignorant country- man, but in #0 doing the poor fellow got, what Weatern folks call the worst end of the bargain. Tt was thus—He persuaded the countryman to take all the sassafras root on his land and wagon it to his store in Louisville, well boxed; perauading him that it would command a high price, as it would be- come a favorite beverage in these temperance times. The advice was followed to the great mortification of the merchant, who thoughtlessly brought an ig- norant man in debt, Two loads were hauled, and the root, if sold, will not pay the expense of one wagon.

It has been decided by them, that * Ex nudo pacto, non oritor actic and that man can act as agent in every thing, save that of propagating. ‘This association is managed with much spirit, and governed on the Lancasterian school principle. Some of these junior lawyers have advanced high in their profession and arrived at an eminence that would do honour to me mature in years, When a defender of innocence and the peace of our commonwealth is required, these superior sons of Coke and Mansfield, ise like the goddess, from the troubled waves of the Egean to espouse their cause.

Dull Times—No Money—Charter Election—Politics —Newaspapers— The Churches. James Gorvon Benxgrt, There is little doing here at present worthy of note; money has been very searce with us the pas winter, our splendid fairs and liberal donation par- ties to the contrary notwithstanding; but summer is fast approaching; Congress Spring has been im- proved fifty per cent, and, doubtless, we shall soon see millions of dollars fluttering through our Broad- way, in the shape of silk dresses, ribbons, hats, &c. Our charter election was conducted without re- gard to politics; a feeble effort was made by some silly persons to elect temperance candidates, but the individuals who advocated their cause were unpo- pular, and as Deacon Davison did not put his shoul- der to the wheel, | suppose the attempt was prema- ture. Our town meeting was held the 5th inst.; ertions had been made by prominent mento make outa nomination which would be satisfactory to all. Caucuses were held—some ended in nothing—other in rows. The Toronto, or upper village men, were promised, flattered, deceived, and, inreturn, became refractory, bolted, and prevented the contemplated union. The locofoco candidate for supervisor elec- tioneered for himself at the polls; his oppooent at- tended to his ordinary business, and was defeated by the unprecedented majority of 136, while the loco candidate for town clerk was defeated by a young butaspiring and patriotic democrat, who, born for- ward by his political enemies, hesitated not to break the ranks, and forfeit the confidence of hia own party for the paltry office of town clerk. Some of our officers reflect much credit on the Saratoga electors, and others visa versa. But the caucuses, town meetings, and some of the officers, are “small and I must apologise for the space they upy in your valuable paper, and proceed to hody.

Conspicuous among the papers of the day, is the Saratoga Senti- nel. It was established, and for many years edited by Gideon M.

What dolts! are they not aware that the day ha adyarrived when malicious attacks upon pi pe bee and unmeasured abut ‘aped upon the heads of individuals for imaginary wrongs, only serve to call down the indignation and contempt of honorable men, upon the source whence they ema- nate? The Presbyterians have nearly completed a brick church corner of Broadway and Caroline street, for which our visiters last summer were called upon to contribute liberally, as it was located where stran- gers would naturally congregate to hearthe gospel expounded, and where they would t be wel- come, as in its construction their accommodation andiconvenience would be particularly consulted. The architecture reflects little credit on our village, and its size is entirely inadequate to the purpose for which it wae designed. The congregation 1s high- ly respectable, and comprises a large portion of the aristocracy of the village. Itis under the pastoral charge of the Rev. Mr. Chester. The Methodists have # brick church, pleasantly situated in Wash- ington street. There is something about its appear- ance, ax well inside as from the street, which strikes the observer as being very neat and appro- priate. Mr. Goss, their minister, is a man of fine form, good address, and quite a favorite with the ladies. His mild and heavenly features bespeak a heart at peace with his Maker, and he is withal an eloquent speaker. The Baptists have also a neste. old church in Washington street, of neither brie noretone, on the top of which has recently been placed an apology Tor a town clock, with a face about as large asa basket.

(Correspondence of the Herald.) ‘Winenester, Va., April 14, 1842. State of Things in Virginia—Business—Crops— Temperance—Literature—Religion— Philosophy. James Gorvon Benxerr, Esq. Drax Sir, Yesterday it rained all day here, and every thing around was gloomy and cheerles, but to-day the weather is delightful, and the genial rays of the sun add’ new life and beauty to every thing around. The fair belles and gallant beaux, as they pass along our etreets, seem to partake largely of the animation which prevails; they are all smiles, and their looks indipate that the remembrance of the gloom which prevailed yesterday only enables them to appreciate the more the loveliness of this charming day. Basinees here is at a stand still—news of import- ance we have none. Allis gloom, and you hear no- thing but the ery “hard times,” and the query, “in heaven’s name when will there be a change for the better 1” and echo answers “when?” In looking into the future, however, we have a few hopes to cheer us, and which fill us with the belief that our day’ of deliverance may not be as far distant as we might imagine. One is, the promising appearance of the growing crop hereabouts, and the information that the prospect all over the Union is not leas flat- tering. ‘The valley of Virginia, certainly, never pre- sented a more flattering prospect of an abundant haryeet ; the fielda of wheat look luxuriant far be- yond what they have heretofore at this season of the year,and it i#expected that the harvest will be at least two or three weeks earlier than it was a twelve month ago; and whenever such has been the case in former years,we have rarely failed to have a good crop. Another hope ia, in the speedy resumption of our banks. If they do not resume immediately after the Maryland banks do, they must toe the mark on the first of November next. An abundant harvest and specie paying banks are our greatest hopes of relief ; and should we be blessed with those in due course of time, business of all kinds will undoubtedly revive —the country will very soon be restored to her for- met prosperity—the blighted hopes of thousands who now deapair will once more revive, and many whose energies have been paralyzed will receive new vigor, and then may we look for the enjoyment of Ronin. So far, the vote stands as follow: roaperity and happiness of by-gone days. , ow ped oa here te tlgiowalt ourdenomina- 7 Gidding Edwards. ions are getting on in the good old quiet way. ‘The | Painesville, — - ir! 126 temperance cause some short time ago Was prosper- corn, boy 8 < ing ata rapid rate, but its advocates seem to have} uney, It ma) tired, and have become q lukewarm. ‘This is all Perry, MapeTia® suf y 49 maj wrong. on you send ua u Father Matthew to wir | jinrperafield, Ashtabula co. #2 maj. them uy x Genera, do. 160 maj. ‘On ‘Monday evening last, the seventh lecture be- | —Paineville, Ohio, Telegraph. yyceum came off. leo- heeter fore the Manche: lawyer by profeesion : Norick To Avrricanrs vor Passronts.—Appli- of uo ordinary talents, and who pe rs avivid | canta for rts are required to furnish the De- fmagination, as the character of his lecture fully | pai iment of State with evidence of their citizenship, oves.
