Gontlemen Senators, the political syications, of which the country hes been the theatre, aud which had com- promisod all its interests, rendered almost nogative certain branches of pa lic revenue; the rights of patent, the land tax, and house taxes, were no more raised; yet in epite of the return to she normal State, tho porooptien of those rights is still in suffer- ance; however, nothing is neglected to sucoced in tho entire reoovery of these fands By the oxamisation of tho general accounts, which will bo presented to you, you will discover that the duties of importation of 1350 have noarly doubled those of 1449; everywhere the crop and the territorial products of i550 offer an iasroase over theso of 1819 As to the coffves, the crop of 1850 exoveds, by twelve millions, that of 134: the crop of 1851, by a witlion, the crop of 155 The army end navy are on a respectable footing; and if their maintenance ovoamons groat expenses to thecountry, these expenses are largely compon- sated by the serviors they render and by the pre- cious advantages which the country may dorive from them. The army is well kept, discipline is observed in its ranks, and, entirely devoted to order, it is ready to mako it triump1 wherover it may be dis- turded. Eaglos have jus’ bcea distributed, and the equipments ef the army renewed. Its fine condition | does not a little contribute to heighten the noble boldness of the soldier, ia giving to him the senti- ment of nationality.

ALMONTH DUBING THE MEPIOAN WAR Nuw Yons, Feb’y 19th, 1847. To Gzn ALMONTE:— Dear Sir—On che recept of this Letter, you will be informed that yours to the 28th of Nov. was duly received by me; and | am very much oblige to you for the kind and expressive manner with which you write it tome. Although I am not a Mexican by birth, ot in feelings | am # Mexican, and as such, with your ‘ind invitation. I will write to you, from time to ss Shela oozes ag agreeable to you, as it wi o me. Tho communication that you fi to trans- mit to me, ‘thro’ some friend,” 1 wait for with the greatest anxiety, hopeing that it will enable us to make a counter-move in this country, while the energy of the government will be acti employed in Mexico. I have carefully examined the subject that I submitted to you in last Letter, and beg leave to say, that my view! ve not been change by time, ani J assure you, sir, that Tam ready to confront our enemy, and as soon as 1 hear from you, and the necessary arrangements can be mado for that purpose. My Dear Gen , I hope that you will be able to gee, that the plan can be arrango without communicativg its contents to more than two or three persons. and the vigorous manner with which I derign to execute it, it would enable me to paral- ize the energy of the government on the out set of the operation. The most of the troops of the line are in Mexico. or soon will be; and the arms that 1 designed to use, would enable mo to cope succedsfully with apy irregular troops that could be brought against me. But whether I suoceed in ob- taining the means necessary to enablo mo to take a part in the contest or not, I hope the result of the war will be advantageous tothe Mexican Arms. Tho subject that is paramount with me ie, to see & union, # unioy among the people and peoplo’s lead- ers, Which will enable you to present a soled front to the enemy of our country. [| feel some soticitude about the financial! affairs of the country, and hope that you may suc’ced in adopting some plan that will prove equal to the exegenoy of the war. lam convinced, however, that you will be oblige to issue Bills of the denomination of $5, $10, $20, $50, aud $100, for tho use of the army, and for the general purpose of ihe government. If the annual expenses ls greoter than the income, you must be able to make up for the deficency and if you fail in doing 80, it will prove desatrous to tho army. The emi- tion of paper money, we are told that it origicated with the Spanish army in Spain, and I think that if you refer to war in Europe, with Napolion, you will see that England depended mainly upon the Bank of England which for thirty years did not pay any specio, and J hope that it will be posable for your government to issue paper that woul be ro- ceived as a currency of the country in all the De- partments in Mexico. If each Department would gaurentee the redemption of a certain amount in so mavy years, and the clergy would assume a part of the amount, aud if the government would roceive the same for dues, I think you would be able to issue about $25,000,000 every 5 ear, for three or four years. But. it I should he able to take the field; the war would not last four years betweon Mexico and the United States. To Samblel gon to meet your ongage- ments, for the purchase of military stores, gc , if the amount contributed by the clergy aud the De- partments should be in part gold and silver, { think that you would be able to manage your financial af- fair with more facility then you over will bo able to do under the present system. Your annual income must be equal to your annual expenses, and if not, you must provide for the deficiency, ani bow will you do it upless you could obtain money upon the credit of the Government? The Ideaof the respect- ive States in Mexico paying a sufficient sum, or the church as a mode to furnieh the Government with the means for conducting the war will in my opia- ion fail unloss 1t could be done in such a way as to make it work with harmony. If the churches would thei¢ expenses, and charge 5 or 6 per cont for the use of it, and would consolidate the fntoroat with the lone, durring the war, I think it would add much to the vigor of the Nation in condacting the war against bor enemy 1 would like to finishthose views upon this fioancial question, but I must for- | boar, unless you should desired by you. I hops sir, you will appreciate my motive for adverting to this subject, and attribute it only to my anziety for you as iho financial egont of your country, and for ber | prosperity. J will ect to hear from you soon, and | in the main tie, you will bear from mo again. J} am, Dear, jour ob’t eerv’t. and a devoted friend of your country, Lewis H. Putnam. My Dgar Frrenn:— Dec. 21, 1816. Tho false, partial, exagerated, and inflammatory | statement in Polk’s message, of neh ta or pre- tended wrongs done by Mexico to the United States, is pee its eflect upon the ignorant and super- ficial, even among whigs and opponents of the war. Wo may bo able, in some measure, to do away this impression, by giving the fuers es to ourselves, aud | details of the wiongs and insults whish Mexico can | array, a8 an off-set; but you are awaro that it takes | along time for truth told by a private citizen to | overtake falschood flying onthe four wiad3 from the Presiden:’s lips. “Now, it does scem to me that | a certain document, issued with equal solemnity, and from an equally conspicuous source in Mexico, isdemanded. Permit me to suggest some points as proper to be treated of. 1. The real nature of the pretended injuries, as heing | to private persons avd private property, and not also the resuits of mistakes of subordinate officers in applying your laws, or the ordinary caro of taxing private property for public use, aa in the impress ment of yosscls and forced loans, for which Mexico has vever refused a due indomnity, nor indeed in ary casc, when it should be found to be due. . The wrongs and outrages committed by smug- gling and by national vesscls of the United States, elopement of vessels from your harbors, when in tying off to sea, in one instance, if no more, of one s. Also, the capture of your public essels by ours, mercly because they were engaged executing your revenue laws against smneeicrs, and endeavoring to enforce and maintain the au- therity of the vation in Texas, end on its coas:s 3. The cutrage of Com. Jonea, (probably tho re- It of secret orders.) at Monterey. You know Jones says that he aimed to do, in the new state ef things, (which he pretends to supposo,) what the govern- ment would order, wero they to communicate with | him. Also, the outrage committed by the Alert, (L think the vessel was called.) at San Diego, and tho pre-eminent outrage (under pretexts insulting to common sense) of Gaines’ invesion of Mexican terri- tory in 1856 4. The utter neglect and refusal of our govern- ment to make any satisfaction, or givo any indem- nity for pecuniary damege in any of these casos. They did not even bring Jones to court of inquiry, & thing never before omitted in euch a case, though the excuse were far more plausible than Jones’. Why sbould they not have ingutred into the mat- tert Jones was not within the oe of Moxi- co, and she, and, in fast, none but our government, could procecd against him, and elicit the facts which the two nations had a right to have spread before them. They wero, in my opinion, afraid of the defence which Jones could make. o 5, Tho repeated attempts to obtain Texas by ne gotiation; under Jefierson in 1505-6, as stated by Mr. Gorostiza; the military irraptions, with th connivance of the government, as stated by W: kinson; the final application fur a grant of a district as an asylum for Catholics, persecuted in the United States; theyperjury by which others obtainod land, and thcir fraude thereupon: the abolitioa of slavery and the slave trado in Mexico; the pertinacious and insolent attempts to make Mexico the s/ave-catcher of the United ‘States; the audasions throat (repeat- edly uséd for obtaining such » stipulation) that the American slaveholdors would come and tako thom by force, and the’gevorsment demand an indemnity for thein; the attempts of Poinsett to get Texas; hi intorferenee for that in the domestic dis sions of Moxico, and his agency in setting up a inili- tary usurper, giving thereby the first example of disorder @nd awareby; the condnct of Butler, kis | snocortor; the infamous protensions brought for- ward toa boundary at the Neeches as the Sabine, and then of a Saline emptying into the Rio Gracdo; the insolont demands and dirty intrigues of that fel- low, under the private invetructiona of the President of the United States, and his final attempt to bribo to the smount of half a milion, to obtuin the cs3- sion of Texne, Mr Adama saw, in the Department of Stato, Butler’s etter, in which he propored direst bribery, and asked for the money; and tho instruc- tions of tho President endorvod on the letter to thie «fect, vir:--That this govornment would have nothing to do with deignating persons to whom motoy should be patd; but that if halfa million more were required to effect the purchase, tho oy chould bs ready, aud be added te tho fizo ly offered You know that For- | i while be affects to di rovidont, of Butlers pro- telis him the Prosidontia Pg proviously promis There must | xivo who know whether b: Sutlec’y “precious colle ifyou want it.

There is an idea current among the peo- le thatthe Mexicans donot know how (0 take aim. i bas doubtless beon derived from the correspond: ence ofthe army. If this defect exist, it must be fatal. Anarmy of Julius Casar’s would be used up ine short time Gring at random themselvoi, and taking the fire of Americans, who universally loarn to shoot from their boyhood. It ia s tradition ofthe eountry that the troops of the United States had the advantage of the British in the war of the revo- lution, because ours took aim as they would to kill geome, #hilethe British did wot take aim, but only fired in the general direction of their adversary. The fate of the admirable Mexican woman who was killed while administering succor to the wounded, has excited universal sympathy. Should you write me, please pumber your totters.

I dovermined, of | course, to cross under the plunging fire of the ene- my’s escopetas. My order to advance was admirably exeouted. At the moment Lieut. Col. Bonham’s but- talion rushed forward, with a shout, the enoray poured down a heavy fire, by wuioh several of my men were severely wounded. Col Bonham’s horse was shot near me, and a ball passed through the rim of wy bat in a very digsgrecable proximity to my faco. Our men leaped the barricade, followed by Cap! Doperu’s company of cavalry, avd in less than ten minutes the enemy wore in flight in evory direction, and the American flag waved upoa the high bluff whieh they had occupied. Tho Mexioan foros, na they said afterwards, cousisted of 500 mon Had they possessed courage avd skill io the use of arms our loss must have been very great You oan hard- Ry conceive the strength of the natural dofoaces of the road over which we passed.

It was fierce and bloody beyond anything that has cccurroo in this war Tae battle differed There General Taylor received the enemy in a strong po sition, selected by himself Our force on the 20ch consisted of less then 9000 men; the Mexioan force, within supporting distance and epgaged, uadondt- edly exceeded 3),000 We attacked him in position | upon ground of his own selection, admirably forti- fied. You will distinguish, so far as numbers are concerned, between the battle of the morning and that of the afternoon, although spoken of ia oificial reports as one engagement, under the designation of “tbe battle of Mexico.” We took, during the Gay, thirty-five pieces of artillery, an immenso quantity of ammunition, 800 mules and horses, and more than 2 000 prisoner —among them eight gene- tals and any number of colonela. The Mexican loss in killed and wounded must have beon immense. Our troops buried five hun- in the morning at Contreras, and the loss in the afternoon was much greater. Our loss has been | heavy. With this small army we could not afford to purchase many such viotories at such a prio); oae of the regiments of my brigado (the thirteenth) lost in killed and wounded ono third of its entire foros. In killed and wounded we number nos less than one thousand, and among thera, | lamont to say. an | unusual proportion of valuable officers.
