MEXICO. The Spanish armament lately fitted out at the island of Cuba, and by this time probably on its way to invade Mesta), gives rise to serious reflections, and may eventually involve eeneetleetlere in European politics which a, first glance might not ;lead us to anti cipate. It it a maxim of British policy "not to interpose In the Internal affairs of any power; and ber Ministers have also declared that they would not interfere in any attempt on the part of the mother country to recover her ultra-marine colonies, but that they would not allow a third party to aid and assist." Now the situation of Mexico is singular. Formally recog- nised by Rngland Si an independent State, can the latter re main an indifferent spectator to an hostile aggression ? and will spe prevent the United States, whose interest Is evidently interwoven with that of her sister republic, and who will .undoubtedly come forward with her usual promptnesa sad energy. to lend assistance to sae of the belligerents? In an affirmative hypothesis, Great Britain may suddenly be brought into a conflict with North Ametica, and what *ill then become of the Canada.? That 'sarcasm Is too dainty for brother Jonathan to leave un touched : to ay Swains of the incalculable disasters to which our shipping would bt exposed• Troops have lately been sent to the Canada., and officers ordered to join their regiments : has this mea sure any connexioo with the recent movements in Cuba ? As to the klexicans, divided as they are among themselves, Uttle reliance can be placed on their resistance I the Spaniards have still a strong party in Mexico, who wiU no doubt second the efforts of the invaders : bribes and great promises will be held out ; and tan ks, some unexpected event comes In aid of the Mexicans, there is too ousels realist to fear ibis infant republic may once more be brought under the iron yoke of Spain• To blockade the port of Vera Cruz will be one of the first steps of the Spaniards: will the other Powers respect this blockade?

It has been said, that the cry of Greece for succour in her day of desolation to the Christian States around her, was only answered on certain political conditions ; and that, if Greece had accepted these, she would have been abandoned to the extirpation which awaited her. When the knife of the Turk was at her throat, and death or acquiescence the alternative, that she assented to these stipulations will create no sur prise : but in such a moment of helplessness, to extort' conditions on which alone the aid of humanity was afforded, argues a policy as unsound, as it and impure. Dismissing, however, as these discussions, all considerations of abstract morality, we are at a loss to conceive on what • so necessary for us to be tender of Turkish the disparagement of the best plan which suggested itself for breaking the unity of the despotisms, by the erection of a free state in —independent,though confining upon all. ,ity of uncontrouled Greece, in amity and al- England, would lie like a stumbling-block be , and her march upon the Mediterranean ; and guarantee, over and above, a bright liberty in other nations upon that sea, now groaning sceptre. from Madrid state, that the Mexican emi- in have offered to_ pay the expenses of an 12,000 • infantry and 2,000 cavalry, with artillery, to reconquer that Spanish colony. ago it was stated these emigrants had with ... Miens of dollars from Mexico. Supposing a to be true, do they not prove the actual productive powers of the country ? thd exportation of so much coin by compara individuals, and a proposition to hazard so an attempt to regain the possessions of have been dispossessed, make manifest those who, fl.om disappointment, occasioned ternal disasters (the almost inevitable con their stri:ggle for independence, not to ;citement kept alive by the intrigues of old ibe this Mexico to be totally impoverished, the attention of Great Britain?

How long will North America then permit Cuba to be held by Spain as an offensive station ? From that moment Cuba will be North-Americanising (as the ancient Greek States were said to be Atticising) and in a very short time the North American Union flag would be flyhig on the towers of the Moro Castle. It is the natural, inevitable result of North America's intervention. It is the price Mexico must pay for her security and repose, and which England must submit to pay for her indifference to the new States of South America, partiality for FERDIWAND, and injustice in the application of the code of neutrality. We have no doubt Mexico will repel the present attack, but she must terminate at once all the ills which the continued means of attack occasion. We have cried " Wolf" for a long time- we hope the bleat of the vic tims will not be heard, but fear the hope is vain. Can we at such a moment afford the loss of South American trade ? The minds of all men, poor and rich, are in the highest state of excitement : all are agreeing that some change must take place, or rather is taking place—com bination is the order of the day. Operatives are requir ing lower prices, hoping to drive their masters to mea sures they think indispensable for relief. The masters attack the landlords, and say rents must be lowered — and the landlord and operatives say consequently ma chinery must be taxed ; but yet at this moment we see with complacency eighteen millions of capital put in jeopardy, and the whole markets of the New World exposed again to the prejudices of a desolating war, the object of which is to introduce Spanish domination and monopoly. It is true that the Mexicans and Colombians have not paid their bonds, but Old Spain would not re cognize them, and total confiscation Is Certainly worse than suspended payment. To prove this it is only ne cessary to look at the price of the Spanish Cortes, and South American Bonds, and to recollect how much the price of the latter is influenced by the offensive station of Cuba, and the Spanish armaments continually as sembling there. By the Flanders mail this day, we have the Prussian State Gazette, and the Algemeine Zeitung, to the 24th instant. The former gives a loose account of •another victory over the Turks in Asia, the news of which had come to St. Petersburgh during the celebration of the birth-day of her Majesty the EMPRESS.—WhiIe the Al gemeine Zeitung still speaks of prospects of peace, it in forms us of mighty preparations for the spirited continu ance of hostilities. In other respects the foreign papers of this day are uninteresting. The following are the most important selections we are enabled to give : ST. PETERSBURGH, Jinx 35. The day before yesterday, the birthday of ber Majesty the Empress, was celebrated as usual by Divine Service, and with every demonstration of public respect and attachment. The general pleasure was greatly heightened by the arrival of the news of the taking of Silistria. At t►e same dose wit► this welcome intelli gence, news arrived from Mils of another victory, gained on the 14th nit. by the united detachments of Major Generals Murawluo and Bartow, over large bodies of Turks. who had assembled is the defile of Portov. The enemy lost their rich camp, which was taken by storm, a large quantity of ammunition and provisions. 400 prisoners, five standards, and all their artillery. The Turks, whose force amounted to 15,000 men, lost 1,200 In killed and wounded ; our lose is small. The details of this seders are not known. Count Paskewitsch was still at Kars, but was preparing to attack the Seraskier himself, who, wit► an army of 50,000 men. is about 60 worsts (40 miles) from that fortress. His Highneu Chesrew Mires, Prince of Persia, arrived on the 10th of June at midnight,' in the fortress of Wiadikawkask, - icompanled by a numerous suite, by Major-General Rennenkamf, of the suite of his Imperial Majesty, and other Russian officers . A guard of honour was sent to meet him twelve worsts irons the fortress. Outside the gates be was received by Major-General Skweeselo, the Governor, and other officers, who accompanied his Highness to the residence prepared for Min, before which a guard of honour was ready to receive him with military honours as he alighted from his carriage. The next morning the Prince took advantage of the fine weather to walk in the gardens of the fortress, and to view from the surrounding hills the picturesque scenery of country. On the 12th, being the Persian festival of the Courant Beiram, the Prince received the compliments of his suite, and of the Russian Generals and officers. While his Highness stayed there, the bvsd of the regiment played every evening under his window. On the 14th he proceeded on his journey to St. Petersburgh, after thanking the Governor in the most flattering terms for the hospi table reception he ►ad met with.—Pros ices State Gazette, July 24.

General Geismar is forming moveable columns, with which hr intends to act on the right bank of the Danube. The Pacba of Nicopolis is said to be mach alarmed at this ; and the fan of Silistris is not calculated to encourage the Turkish garrisons. It is said that the heavy artillery found in Rachova is to be employed in the defence of that place; and that mote heavy artillery is expected from the principalities, which is to be embarked on the Danube and employed against Nictspolis. Congreve rockets, of a new kind, are to be sent to General Geismar. Since the energetic measures of the Government, the sanitary state of the principalities has began to improve. Some villages, where the epidemic disorder was peculiarly violent, are to be burnt, by order of the Divan ; and an indemnity given to those who will be sufferers by the measure. irtmitta.

' A report has been spread on 'Change to-Jay, that the Prussian General Baron Sidling is sent to Constantinople on an extraor dinary mission. This is considered as an indication of the inter vention of Prussia to bring about peace; and as a proof of the unanimity of the Powers, and of the wish of Russia to put an end to the war, the funds have risen. We have no news from the theatre of war since the fall of Silistria Count Diebitsch arrived before &Karla on the 29th, and took several measures which has. wised the fall of the plate. The corps of Count Udell was then before Shumla, but was preparing to march towards Bourgas, and was to be reinforced by ten thousand men, under General Koss. sow.ky, who leaves a garrison of five thousand men In Silistria.. The fine weather is favourable to vegetation ; and from all parts of the monarchy the accounts respecting the harvest are favour. able ; so that we hope the partial damage dose by storms and in. undations will be counterbalanced by the general prosperity.— Algesusitor Zeilimg, July 94. BRUSSELS, ivix U. The Nassau brings news from Batavia to the 4th April, which announce that hostilities are suspended. This repose was city advantageous to our troops. The chiefs of the insurgents had not yet positively declared upon what condition they would submit, under the pretence that during the whole month the Mahometan fast continues, no negotiations could be carried on. This hindrance would cease on the 6th April, and it would then be seen whether Dupo Negoro was seriously disposed to submit.

The public have also been selling in small sums. No speculations of any consequence have taken place in the Foreign Market, which continues dull to the present boor. We hear from the Hague that the Kiw o had set out for Amsterdam on the 26th inst. and was expected to re turn about the end of the week. Her Imperial Highness the Grand Duchess HaLEw of Russia was expected at the Hague about this time, with a suite, consisting of thirty-six persons. Honduras Papers to the 7th June, Cape of Good Hope to the 10th May, and Singapore to the 13th February, have been received at the North and South American Coffee House. In the Honduras Papers there is an official dispatch from the Commander-in-Chief of the united armies, stating that, at ten in the forenoon, he occupied the great square of the Capital San Salvador, after it had surrendered. Another dispatch to the Minister of War, from Mo- RAZ AN, states, that the actual position of the Republic, and the state of demoralization to which it is reduced by the civil war, requires the adoption of the most energetic measures to enforce the respect due to the laws and the authorities. Next follows an extract of a letter from the same Ge neral, stating, that on the 14th he put in confinement, in a decent house, the President, Vice-President, Aycenena and Sosa. Cordovita and Demengo has escaped. The Singapore Papers say, that accounts have been received from Manila, stating, that great agitation pre vailed there, owing to a plot having been discovered to declare its independence ; and that a great number of individuals have been arrested, and put into close confine.. ment. It was said, that the plin was to set the Theatre on fire, while the Governor, Admiral, and others in authority were in it ; and to secure and murder the rest of the Europeans. Little credit, however, is given to the above report. The Cape of Good Hope Papers state, that the Go vernment Gazette, of the 13th May, contains some ale rations of the capitation taxes. The head money (we believe 3s. 9d. paid by men above 16 years of age, and women above 20 and under 60). is increased to six shil lings; and is in future to be paid by every person above the age of 16 and 20, excepting married women. From the South African, of the 6th May, it appears, that the farmer there can now calculate upon a ready market and good price for his produce in Cape Town, or at any sea port. Wheat, during the last six months, has fetched front 90 to 130 dollars a load ; oats, 30 dollars. By the French Mail this morning, we have accounts from Gibraltar of the 9th July, stating, that the. Gover nor of that place has made sonic opposition to the blockade of some of the ports of Morocco. On account of the commerce of Gibraltar being reduced to the greatest ex tremity, most of the English and French merchants have gone to Cadiz. Letters from Belgrade, of, the 12th July, state,that accounts have been received fr o m C ons t an ti no pl e , of the 30th June, announcing that the camp at Adrianople has been broke up and marched fur Shumla, and preparations were making for the departure of the Sultan to take the field. The private accounts from the Havannah of the 2d of July state that the province of Yucatan had sent a Depu tation to Ferdinand, soliciting his assistance to free them from the yoke of the Mexicans, and they would join the Spanish forces, on their landing, with 3,000 or 4,000 men. It was reported at the Havannah that two expedi tions would sail for the coast of Mexico—one to Yucatan, to bring down the Mexican forces to that province, while another division would land on some other part. The people at the Havannah are much dissatisfied, being drained of their money to fit out the expedition. The Gazette &Augsburg says, that the Grand Vizier had no authority to give an answer to the propositions sent by General Diebitsch, who sent the dispatches to Constantinople ; and that Redschid Puha is much dis for peace. The great influence he has with the ru s l e l is such, that every hope is entertained that terms will be accepted to prevent the further effusion of blood. The report of two divisions of Russians having passed 'the Balkan might have been magnified from the follow ing circumstance :—lt was reported at Constantinople, that the Russian scouts were seen In the environs of Carnabet, in the Balkan, and in the Valley of Deglis- Boreal.

The time for action is fast approaching : h e policy will shortly be developed, and her fleet oppx. tamely concentrated at Tenedos, panting for an "pf tnnity to gather fresh laurels, is prepared for every event. The approach upon Constantinople will be the signal. l e concert with France and the Turks, or even singl e . handed, our fleet can easily annihilate the naval power of Russia in the Mediterranean and in the Black Sea, de stroy her arsenal of Sebastopol, and ruin the infant coin meree of Odessa. Cut off from supplies by sea, the Rus sian army must necessarily retrograde, and its retreat across a hostile country at an advanced period of the season, continually harassed by Turkish cavalry, may probably be a repetition of the French drama of 1812. Sweden, attentive to the events in the East, acting it perfect unison with, and seconded by the Cabinet of St. James's, will probably make a demonstration on the side of the Baltic, and that Colossus, now so threatening and terrific, may at length be brought within its proper limits.

Skene, of Robertalaw, visited, in the beginning of the present month, various parts of the &ewartry of Kirkcudbright, sketching as he went every object of interest, and more particularly the old castles of Threave and Kirkcudbright, the site of Torn, and the singular caves of Rascarrel and Barber°, at the mouth of the Suiway. Threave, with its ponderosa and main walls, over which the ele ments berm to pass unheeded, was deemed worthy of more than nee sketch ; and well it might, since a mere imposing relic of feudal grandeur is hardly to be met with in any part of Scotland. React the sea coast, the artist trode as classic ground, and has done ample justice, by the power of his pencil, to the site of a stronghold perched like the eaglet's home in the eliff, the frowning steep in (root, with the ocean beyond, and not far distant, more than we darksonse cave, which those who profess to be in the author's secret, have long identified with the localities of Guy Manner*.
