that as soon the intelligence of the passage OF tue
Texas resolutions in Congress reaches Mexico, that
government will issue decree confiscating all
American vessels in the Mexican waters, and all
property of American citizens in Mexico, on land
and water This must, of course, at once lead to
war. Our government must do something immedl-
ately or the difficulties will increase step by step


Well there is spirit enough in this country to Jump

mind in resistance to any attempt on the part oi


Mexico to despoi any Of our citizens. In the event


ofsuch war, France and England would ultimate

trict Attorney, and the appointment gratifies him
personally, as it enables him to remain here ard
attend to his private business. Mr.. Purdy will 60
very we'll for Surveyor, and Mr.. Wetmore will
make an excellent, attentive and faithful Navy
Agent. Some of the papers say that LeviD Slainm
is likely to be made Marshal. We hope not.
That is an office, trustworthy and responsible, and
Slamm's associations have not been exactly of the
character to create great deal of confidence


CAUTION TO THE PUBLIC The residents of this
and other cities should be on their guard against
certain stores recently established here and in ad-
joining towns, with high sounding titles which
profess to supply the public with superior articles
" direct fromth manufacturers" "pure and una
dulterated," or "neat as imported" at "much
less price" than other long-established and well
known and respectable dealers. These firms are
generally got up "by the Lord knows who" for
there are no names sci forth; they last but for
short time, in the meanwhile take in the public
with inferior articles, obtain goods to considera-
Die SAlSHt lIOIt IneTCuhHtS anu OtHtIs, ou dCCOuut
of the respectable show they make, and then be-
come non est inventus, and proceed to other parts
"to DO likewise" This was common practice
in London and Pafisa few years since, and to such
an extent it carried, that the authorities and
corporate bodies obliged to interfere for their
suppression, and some of them having been driven
from these places, may be found in this and ad-
joining towns, carrying on their nefarous proceed
inss with impunity. But the remedy lies IN the
hands of the public Let them not patronize any
establishment which have not the names of the
bona fde proprietors, and at the same time let
dealers beware, even when names are given, that
they are not those Of "men Of straw" who are
the willing tools of still greater knaves in the back
ground; by these means the public will protect
themselves from imposition, support honest and
fair tradesmen in their business, and do great
service to themselves and the community gene
rally.
