Polk turned upon Mexico, and by his unwise and imprudent course involved us in an unnecessary and wasteful war with that country, which war has just terminated, after more than two years duration, the expenditure of millions upon millions of the public money, and the loss of the lives of many thousands of our best citizens. We find General Cass still true to party, sustaining and defending the Administra- 11 tion at every step from its inception to its termination. And after Mr. Trist had negot...iated a treaty of peace, and the Senate of the United States had rati- fied it with a few modifications, which rendered it necessary to return it to Mexico for the approval of the Mexican government, General Cass still urged upon the Senate the passage of the Ten Regiment bill. It finally passed that body by a party vote, and was only prevented from becoming a law by the Whig majority in this House; and results have made it manifest that the only effect of its passage would have been to increase the patronage of the President by giving him the appointment of some five hundred officers.
