THE RESULT IN MASSACHUSETTS.

of the late election throughout the ancient Common
wealth of Massachusetts, says:
: "Our Whig brethren of the South and West will
perceirej through the results of this election, that
the 1 Whigs of the old Bay State are determined to
maintain the intesritT of the Whit Part

Republicas the only safe hope upon which we ean
rely, for: the establishment of a wise and good admin
istration of our Government, for the enactment and

Reservation of peace abroad, and for the protection
of the greatest Interest of our country at home.

tional commencement of tbe Mexican Warthe
manner of itsnansgenient, its ruinous expense,
and the terrible sacrifice of human life? have bad
an important bearing upon the late elections, rnd
contributed materially to the defeat of the Ad
ministration. Therf ifnVdrfuhiof it Tbereat
majority of thinkiojr meb of ill parties, there
and here, anil throughout- the -country, if re
may except the extreme South,) are utterly opi
posed to the Administration which wantonly and
unlawfully brought on tbe war, though they may,
and dn, with true patriotism, sustain it now that
we are encased in it- This is a duty not more
Imperative, ttan the condemnation of those who
wrongfully involved us in its horrors.
The Executive! doubtless imagined, that tbe
existence of war would excite the patriotic feel
ings of the people 'to surh a pitch, as- to' break
down all party lines, and drag In the whole coun
try, not alone to the support of the War, but to
the support of the Administration-which waged
it. He bad the xample of 1812-15, when the
Federal Party was annihilated 'by the-War with
Great Britain. s A great portion of thtt party, op
posed as they had been to President Madison and
the-Republican party; at once ceased their oppo.
sition and lent a hearty support to the war," in
the field and in the public councils ; and. those
who still resisted, became "so odious that their
party name became a ri'proach. If wss doubt
less in the hope of a similar reBult;that Mr. Polk
plunged the country in war. lie hoped to break
up the Whig party in the same way, and to per
petuate and increase tbe power of his. own. But
there is an all-essential difference between the
cases, The wsr of 1811 was waged by the con
stituted authorities of the land, after mature de
liberation, in defence and assertion of the dear
est rights and most sacred honor of the country,
and against tbe greatest power of the world
This Mexican war is tbe act of tho Administra
tion, which Congress was 'called on to sanctify
only after it hod been begun. Its plea was that
Mexico owed us money which she had iwt been
prompt in paying. 'And.it was believed that she
was so miserably weak, that a march to the Halls
of the Montczumas would be bat a holiday af
fair. The people have discrimination enough to
see the immeasurable difference between the
two cases, and instead of rallying to the support
of President Polk, bs in 1812 they did to the sop
dort of President Madison, they are in fact rally
ing to the support of ibe country giving to the
President and his followers a more lhau Monte
rey defeat. ' " '
We trust, however, that good will yet come
of this Mexican war. The dreadful criminality
of unnecessary war will be impressed upon the
public mind, with a feeling of horror at the suf
fering and death of so many gallant spirits, and
of indignation at tbe burdens imposed in paying
for this wholesale slaughter. , .
When it is to come to an end, do man can tell.
i& doubt that the Administration, not less than
Unpeople, woftld now be glad to secure a peace.
But every indication from Mexico ia of a more
and more bitter hostility, of a sterner determina
tion to avenge themselves, and of a thorough u
nion of all parties aud classes in the eBort.
