If Jerry Dilatory would pay us the

lor him two years ago, we would pay
Mi. Iirygoiids the dollar we owe him;
he would pay Sam Vulcan for shoeiui:
his horse; Sam would pay Bob Charcoal
lor his coal; Bob would pay Joe Axe
man for his last two days' clioppiuu; Joe
would pav Jack (iiist fur his last luer of
corumeul; .Mr. (i list would tiny Doctor
Ksculapius for thi medicine that came
so near rrettiurr ihiwu his child; 'Doc '
would pay widow Broom for her two
last days' washing; s e would pay Hill
(Jrncer the dollar he owes him; (j voce r
would pay 'Cuke upon liitllelon' his fee
for counsel in the case of, the Stale of
Ohio n. Bill (rocer; 'I'oke upon Lit

stack the dollar he owes him on the hay
lie bought of him last week; and Tim
is such ait honest soul (hat n know be
would come right in and pay is the
dollar he owes us; on inscription, and
then e would buy a chicken, a dozen
eggs, a half bushel cornmeal to make a
'dodger,' ai.d we, otirself, individually,
and our Wife, and our 'todlin wee things,'
would have a feast of 'fat things,' and
we would hare a dime in our pocket,
'baby in the cradle, and a little wife to
rock it.' ;
Bui, because Jerry Dilatory is not
honest enough lo pay not one of these
debts can be paid, and we cannot have
the fi ast ol 'fut things' at 11 Ah, Jer
ry Dilatory! You are the cause of all
this trouble. You prevent all this hap
piness. . It rt-quired ajl our forbearance
to keep from qivingjou 'particular Jess.'

to take a scythe and mow down a ten
acre field of iucH mem i Thiy are ex

Still men are so, and we suppose they

do hope there is better time coming-r
a time when to owe a man, and not to
pay him, will be considered ukin . to
stealing when all will adopt the scrip-

is in a tafeoí revolution;1'' 7nVi,(com
inandel' of the revolutionists, has suc
ceeded in getting possession of every
town, it is said, in the Stale, and is now
advancing toward El Paso, (the inhab

main object being, Ho doubt, to get pos

BRILLIANT IDEA ! ABANDON
MENT OF NEW MEXICO. ! i
We cal! attention to the letter of our
.Washington 1 correspondent, which we
give below, and .especially to, tne pro
position of Mr. Conrad, Secretary "of
War, in relation to New Mexico. It is
4 brilliant specitnei) of that fo,i -reaching
ttalewanthij) wuicn nas oeen so char
acteristic of the present Administration.
Mr.' Contad has" eitheil had his brain
fuddltd aver'the leoent Presidential
election, or he bat been gloriously ,tpfcjt
jed by some incorrigible wag, who Wish,
1 ed to 111 ike a public example of liis in
,Jtrnuhj.
The real property of the citi of Santa
Fe alone, we believe, would cover the
Secretary's "outside" estimate of nil
the real property of New Mexico. The
Taos Valley alone would more than co
ver it, to say nothing of the I'ecos Val
ley, the Mora, and the great valley of
the llio Grande. - With a Kail Road out
let to the Slates and to the Pacific, N.
Mexico would soon show a table of
l.",a,i'",s Hint wonKl not only astonis
Mr. Lonrad, 111 his sionilicilv, but all
otheis who, like, himself, know almost
nothing of our territory. ;.Tlie policy of
;,lr, L""rn(. "owevi r, would not be a
huil Aii.i Is.h no I ..... 1 7 1 ...
bad one for our territory, m-ov'uhd we
did not have to sell out at hit ftthriuU.
When our bills came to be footed up, the
government would get its eyes opened
a little.
But where was our "Delegate" that
he .should permit such an outrageous
statement lo he published official! y, di
rectly under his lijse, and make no ef
fort to coirect it. Of all the 'monstrous
uiisrepieser.lations of New Mexico that
have been made in ihe Stales, none bear
any comparison lo this one of Secretary
Conrad, and yet our "Delégale" has
not one word of contradiction to offer
to H'c public Nolhing has evef been
published, privately or " officially, so cal
dilated In blasl all the prospects of out
territory for the future, as tins ollicial
statement, and yet our Pelegate says
nothing, thus by Ins silence attesting the
truth of the'staleiiieiit. Why'lhis crim
inal neglect ofdu'v? Whs it because
he liim-'f was really as ignorant of the
real value of properly in New Mexico
a the Seen taiy nf Win? Or vvns it
because lie was still clinging lo the foi
lorn hope of fretting an appointment
from thai Depiirtn ml, and was vfruid
to do or Sity anything that might injure
ins jii ospeeis in tnnl quarter.' vveliope
the .constituents of Major ' Weight man
will get llieii eyea opei.i d at length lo
the true character of the man who, while
he has worn the title of their rftwtnw
tuli.ctns lib ndoned their intuesls in
every lime ol need.
We could not in just ice conclude this
article without noticing another feature
f Mr. Conrad's policy, as indicative of
the linlliaiicy ol the 111,111. Mr. Conrad s
o1 ject appears lo be that of econimizing
or Ihe government,, and he imagines
hat by abandoning New Mexico, ihut
object would be accomplished. Let us'
see When the cowrnnient came to
buy out our citizens, at a price at which
they would be. willing to sell, it would
require a sum nearer iji 100,000,000 than
i 2,700,000. But suppose Ihe govern
ment willing to pay this price, or even
more, and all our citizens were w-illing
also to sell out and remove to Cali
fornia or elsewhere,, what then?. The
territory then becomes a strong-hold of
the Indians, and no longer having the
flocks and heids of New Mexico to prey
upon, they naturally fall upon Texas,
Utah, California, and Old Mexico for
plunder they will from some one. ,,
W'e aie bound by our treaty stipula
tions lo protect Mexico from invasion
by those tribes, and consequently, in
stead of forts scattered o.er different
portions of the territory, wa should then
be compelled lo establish a line of forts
along the northern frontier of Mexico.
For these foils 110 subsistí nee could he
obtained from the teiriliiryj bttt 'they
would have to be supplied wholly by
transportation fioiu the Sítales. ,
From the increased. peril to the por
tions of l'exas, Utah and California, the
military posts and military forces would
have thereto be greatly increased, to
afford security so that the.' present mi
litary force mid expenditures of,Niw
Mexico would be absorbed in the new
ones that would necessarily have to be
created.' On the whole, (hen, .Mr. Con
fad's system of economy would be one
that would work "over Hit Itfi" with a
yeltgeance..':, , ,;; 1 ..
. But we give, place to the letter of our
correspondent: .-
V Washington, D. C, Dec. 8, 1852.
, Since the result of the Presidential
election everything has gone on smooth
ly. 'Diereis no cloaking nor complaint
anywhere about it. The Democracy
are everywhere triumphant, and will
probably carry everything their, own
way., Senators Douglas and Weller re
cently declared at a dinner here in
Washington, that' they Were advocates
for the acquisition of Cuba, and for the
aweeptng clearance ol every ihig trout
.r: ti. - -i :a.. n .... .i ..
office the geneia) idea is that , the
decks will be swept of the Whigs every-i
where. ' Says Senator Weller, "The
Whigs miist turn out of the offices that
the honest Democrats want." No doubt
there will be hardly a single Whig left,
Congress seems disposed to go to work.
They were 011 the TarrilTyesterday, but
by a majority of twenty in the House,
resisted every attempt to change the
existing measure. .
In the Keportof the Secretary of Watf
the oulside value of all the property
reai esvaie, 01 new Mexico, is set
down at !f2,700,000 , to protect which
costs this country $1,000,000 annually!
In view of this, Mr. Conrad suggest
buying out the present population there,
transferring them tn some better ' loca
tion, mid leav ing the country altogether
to the Indians, Cotnanches, Apaches and
Navajos, to fight over. He says it is d
country not wo.'th keeping possession of.
In casu such a policy should be pur
sued, 1 would recommend the people to
go southward lo Texas, or westwaid to
California and Oregon; the means theV
would get would he sufficient to estab
lish them handsomely. Peihaps aftei
ten or fifteen years, the Indians would
have become so few as to make a re
occupation of New Mexico in spots
an object of desire. 1
Your delegate, Mr. Weightman, urgJ
ed the House to print five thousand co
pies of the President's Message in the
Spanish language. He could not get it
done,'' 1 j ' í
The President's Message is highly
spoken of, uid will become quite a plat
form of Whig doctrines in the future.-
On the subject of the tariff, it is especi
ally clear, distinct, and conclusive. '
The fuss between the Captain-Gen
eral of Cuba and the' celebrated "P11N
ser Smith" has been closed by the let
ter's disclaiming any illegal or improper1
action in tegardto Cuba, or the'filibus.
teros." Another breere has arisen res
peeling the seiznie and Sale o( an Am
erican vessel, the Lady Snffolkj by the
Spanish authorities of Havana, charged
with being furnished as a slaver. " NothJ
ing will come of it. 1 ' :., 1 , n n ,J
The 'Filibusteros," and those who
are anxious to acquit Ci jterfaidut
fitus, will feel much checked by the
settlement of these differences. 1 1 think,
the will find the acquisition of Cuba
quite vna otra earn from the capture of
Texas from Mexico. Juding from the
President's Message on the subject,
France and Enclainl are disiinFrl fn
eunraiitee Spain in the continued un.
session of the Island. The recent asnect
that Cuban affairs have taken, will in.
dlicte General Pierce. 1 think, tn iU
nothing towards attempting ils acqui
sition.
Our weather here is sinetilailv milit

ARRIVAL OF THE MAIL FROM

MESSAGE, ETC..
The mail fiom Independence, Mr. J.
Rupe Conductor, arrived on last Sunday,
(23d hist.,) being the quickest trip made
j el, save one. 1 he news from the State
is geneiallyof little importance. We
received by this mail the last Annual
Mesfage of President Fillmore. It j8 a
long, well-written document, dt cidedly
Wiigyitit, and our W ashington corres
pondent remarks that it will hereafter
form the basis of a Whiij plafimn.-
Whether there will remain a Vi iurj par
ty to rally upon any platform: in the fu
tuie, we think a little quien tale.
l ie Message gives an elaborate cx
position of our foreign relations, width
are generally of a peaceful nature.-
The acquisition of Cuba he thinks, at
present, would be fraught with serious
consequences to this country, a Very
reasonable conclusion, as England end
France have volunteered to stand by
Spain in the suppoit of her right to that
island. The President is' imposed to
internieddlingin foreign difficulties, how
ever we may sympathize, ami ought tó
sympathize with the struggles ot the op
ptessed everywhere. ' " '
