We have reflected upon the plans offered by
our numerous great men TO conquer peace with
Mexico, some of which have been tried and fail
cd, and others have been pronounced as impr lcti-
cable. One thing we know, that is, nothing is
impossible for Brother Jonathan TO accomplish
when he goes about it in a business like ma rGer


Therefore VIC propose that war be made a bu.
siness transaction, and that adopt something
like the following arrangements, namely


lst. Send $4,000 Infantry, and $4,000 mount
ed men, 10 Mexico, in addition TO The troops aread
there.


I'd. Fay no cnsh for any thing that we can pro.
cure Of the Mcxcans. Take what horses, mules
cattle and provisions we want have them valued
by American officers, and for the same. give I'm.
Gle Sans due bill, payable tpeire months ntle,
peace, without interest, and subject to a discount
OF 10 per cent. for every year that the war is
procastinated.


3d. Equalise this manner of procuring supplies
among the whole people much as possible, and
these Foor military men, who have nothing to lose
by tate OF war and whose interest it may be 10
keep 1t up, as they are captured, should be sent
TO Tho United State, 10 work for living, on our
public improvements, until The war is closed.
4Ih. Let Uncle Sans accounting officers open
un account current with Mexico, and on the debit
side place the following items: The claims of
our citizens for spoations and expenses of the
war. On the credit side place Upper and Lower
California, Chihuahua, Santa Fc, The valley of
the Rio Grande aud the amount of our Due Bills.

If they owe balance we can hold on TO Vera
Cruz. Tampico and Tchuantepec, until it is paid.


9Th. As the Mexicans do not appreciate the
right of suffrage, and much oftencr exercise the
right of cartridge box, than The former; instead
OF Il poll lax. cartridge boa tar should be levied
uP"n-the different corporations and communities
III the rate of 5 per head. The whole commn-
n!ly being responsible for the tax upon each ind-
viduaI.


We believe that when the Mexicans see the
manner and terms, VIC have adopted 10 carry on
the war. they will soon conclude peace; and if
Is procras!nated, our Indebtedness for supplies
will become liluidatcd by the operation of our Sc
cond proposition, and continuance of the war
will be 10 Brother Jonathan. a fair business trans.
action and tho magnanmous Mexican nation
will be accountable TO the world for It's evils.
