In the first place, the population of Mexico in 1839 amounted to 7,044,140. Notwithstanding the succession of civil broils that followed the struggle with the armies of Spain, the country bad been gradually, though slowly, advancing in prosperity. It was then ascertained that the population had been increasing at the rate of 1 4 stha per cent. per annum; and taking this ratio for the. ten years that have since elapsed, the present inhabitants would: amount to 8,319,420. From this, however, we have to deduct the cessions of territory that have since been made to the United States, comprising 57,026 in , 33,439 in Upper and L ower Ct he al provinceirt o f i New 1 a,a rd 27e,800 xic(' in'r, ) xs , .

This was an action brought by Mr. W. Cobbett, a prisoner in the Queen's Prison, against her Majesty's Secretary of State for the Home Department, for an assault and false imprisonment, alleged to have been committed on the plaintiff within the precincts of the Queen's Prison. The case was tried at Guildhall, before the Lord Chief Baron, when a verdict was entered ge nerally for the defendant. Mr. Cobbett, in person, now moved for a rule to show cause why the verdict for the defendant should not be set aside, or a verdict entered for the plaintiff, upon the general issue. We understood the plaintiff to con tend, that the verdict passed for the defendant on the issue raised by the plea of " the general issue by statute," on the ground, that the defendant was a privileged person, and was entitled to demand that the action should be brought in the county where the wrong was alleged to have been committed. !Jere the venue was laid in London, and it was said it ought to have been laid in Surrey, where the Queen's Prison is situated. Mr. Cobbett insisted that a wrong view was taken of the Acts of Parliament relating to the venue, at the trial of the cause. After Mr. Cobbett had addressed the Court at great length, Mr. Baron PARKE intimated that the Court would take time to consider whether the plaintiff was entitled to a rule, although their decision on this point would only involve a question as to a small amount of costs, as there were other pleas going to the substance of the action on which the defendant must retain his verdict. Mr. Cobbett said the matter involved a principle. Judgment deferred. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Baron PLATT.) _ . _ THE Tlil.AL Of ZOLIN CUTTS APD WILLIAM EVANS FOR FORGERY. (Continued from The Sun of yesterday.) Evidence was then gone into at considerable length, but after hearing the case for the prosecution and the addresses of counsel on behalf of the prisoners, The jury, without troubling the Learned Judge to sum up, returned a verdict of Nut Guilty, adding that the prisoners would leave the court with as unblemished character. No evidence was offered upon the other indictments, and verdicts of Not Guilty having been recorded, the prisoners were ordered to be immediately discharged from custody. William Bailey, 31, was indicted for the wilful mur der of Henry Lamball, by stabbing him in the breast with a knife. Mr. W. COOPER defended the prisoner. The circumstances of this case have been fully re ported within the last few days, and it will therefore be unnecessary to repeat them on the present occasion. The jury found the prisoner Guilty of Manslaughter, and he was sentenced to be transported for life. t b efore h the v e a ig ne h e t d p in oo y r ea w r o s, me w n e , re m b o r s o t ug o h f POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. w orn were som Y e e w st h e a rd t a a ) d r Lord Mayor, by William Bunting, 632, of the City • police, under tbo following circumstances:— No charge was made against the women, but they had been taken up in a state of destitution in the neighbour hood of the East London Union, where they had applied for admission and relief, but were refused on the ground of the building being full. The LORD MAYOR, after an inquiry, censured the conduct of the officials in refusing relief to persons who were in absolate want, and who, as was stated, had be. hand with perfect propriety. Kiie Lordship expressed Daniel Donovan and Stephen Powell were brought be fore Mr. Cottinghana for re-examination, charged with criminally assaulting Mrs. Eliza Seal, the wife of a commercial traveller, in Coleman-street, and also with stealing from her person a brooch, ring, and four shillings. Mr. Binns attended for the prisoners. When the prisoners were placed at the bar, Mr. Cot tingham was informed by policeman 167 M, that the prosecutrix was not in attendance, although both she and her uncle, who accompanied her to the court on the former day were aware, that the further examination was to take place that day. Mr. COTTINGHAM said that in a case of this descrip tion, where the lives and liberty of two men were placed in peril by a complaining party, on an accusation of such a serious nature, she ought not on any account to have neglected coming forward, and he added, that he was determined to compel her attendance. The Magistrate inquired if the landlady of the Welsh Harper was pre sent, who, it was alleged, bad seen the parties together in that house The answer being in the affirmative, Mrs. Donne then ascended the witness box, and on being sworn, she stated in answer to the magistrate, that on the ni g ht o f S un d ay week, a b out n i ne o ' c lock, Donovan, acc om p an i e d b y a woman, w i t h a handker chief tied rou n d h er h ea d , entered the house toge th e r, and he called for a pi nt o f h a lf and half, wh i c h t h e y drank together at the _b ar . Th at w hi le in t h e h ouse the woman, who seemed to b e un d er t h e influence of liquor, endeavoured to conceal her face by holding up a hand kerchief to it and turning her Weir to witness, who, how. ever, thought she should be enabled to identify her if she saw her again. The prisoner Donovan and the woman talked familiarly together while standing at the , bar, and he advised her to apply eye water to her eye. Mr. Binns said that the latter circumstance showed, at all events, that the complainant was the woman, as it appeared that she had received a black eye from her husband on the night (Saturday) that it was reported he turned her out of the house. 1 hat the evidence of the witness distinctly proved that she did not appear to be under any restraint while in the public-house, for she drank and left the house with the same man that had accompanied her there. Mr. COTTINGHAM said that, in the absence of the complainant, it was impossible for him to proceed with the investigation that day. He, however, would not allow such a charge to pass over without further in quiry, and directed the policeman to call upon the com plainant again, and inform her that if she fail e d i n h er attendance on Wednesday, a warrant would be issued to compel her. Mr. Binns said that the prisoners could procure bail for their appearance on the next examination, and he trusttd the magistrate would accept of sureties for them, particularly after hearing what took place in the Welsh Harper public-house. Mr. COTTINCUAM, however, rejected the application, saying that he believed the complainant's account of the outrage. The prisoners were then removed from the bar. MARYLEBONE. A MAN DISGUISED A WOMAN.—E. Woodall was charged with having stolen a silk handkerchief, the pro perty of Mr. George Peach, a clerk, residing at West bourne-grove, Payswater. The prisoner wasat a a r t e tir y e o d u i: a mousseline-de-laino dress and slate - coloured polka, and a straw bonnet and black veil. Prisoner —noTaamuTaostba(nteot.tdhaeneperri, and am theatres. lam now engaged at the St. James's. Mr. BHOUCHTON.—And does the manager know that own c lo thes you are going about in the disguise of a woman ? Pri one r- -It was asunodner lynedauthn. Sergeant Walker, 5 1), deposed that on the previouse for a lark, sir, and I have my morning, between one and two o'clock he was spoken to by Mr. Pesch, who, pointing to the prisoner, said, "That girl has stolen my handkerchief from my great-coat pocket." Witness went up to the prisoner and told her what she was charged with, when she said, " Don't take me to the station-house, I want to speak to you, and will give you something to drink. lam no girl, but am a young man living in Pickering place." The young man who had lost the handkerchief also told him that he had been in the company of the prisoner for nearly an hour, and that he (prisoner) had put his arms round him many times; his belief was that the pri:oner was a girl. Mr. BROUGHTON inquired whether the owner of the handkerchief was in attendance, and he was answered in the negative. The prisoner, in answer to the charge, said "I was not aware of the risk I was running, and if I had in tended anything wrong by putting on female apparel I should not have had my own things on underneath. The person who said he had lost his haodkerchief was rather the worse for drink; when he met me he said, "Are you going home alone, miss,". and I said " Yes." He would not let me go, or I should have been glad to have got rid of him. I never put women's clothes on before, and am sorry that I should have acted so foolishly now, but I didn't dream of any harm co • ming out of it." Mr. BROUGHTON looked upon the off.nce in a serious light. The assumption of• women' s a ttire by a man was at all events an offence contra from such bones mores , a nd practices great abominations might probably arise. The prisoner was bailed, himself in 401. and two sureties in 301 each, for his b • the court; and it was directedeing again forthcoming at that a summons should be issued against Mr. Peach , whose evidence is material in the case. WESTMINSTER. FATAL OCCURRENCE.—J. Wardley, aged 49, a la bourer, was charged before Mr. Broderip on suspicion of having caused the death of Anne, his wife, by as saulting her. Caroline Donolly, a woman in humble circumstances, stated that the prisoner and his wife occupied an apart ment immediately ov er h ers, at No. 1, Leg-court, Peter street, Westminster. O n Saturday evening, at about tea-time, she heard the p r i soner and his wife quarre l l i ng in their room, shortly a f ter which the latter left him, an d as she came do% n s t a i rs made use of angry words. She then passed alon g b y w i tness's door, and went out. In about 15 or 20 minutes more she again heard them quarrelling up in their room, and on listening she heard what she thought to be a tremendous combat between them, and she made use of very low language to her husband, immediately after which there was a heavy fall which shook the plac e . A s witness was going out shortly afterwards she h eard a heavy sigh, wh i ch s h e thought proceeded from t h e prisoner ' s apartment. S he paid no particular attention to this, and went to market ; but upon her return in two h ours found t h at pr i soner ' s wife was dead. A great deal of evidence was gone in, but it appeared that a post mortem examination had not yet been made; and the prisoner was remanded for a week. LONDON INSTITUTION.--.ELECTRO Menem—The last soiree of the season took place on Wednesday night. when the institution was attended by nearly eight hun dred of the proprietors and literary and scientific visi tors. During the evening Mr. Alfred Smeo delivered a lecture on electro biology, or the relation of electricity to the functions of animal life, upon which subject he ha s recently published an elaborate treatise. Fo r . a nimal a l lire it is necessary to have a central portic! 0 blood, and connected together by nervaenti gement and peripheral or body, both supplied with bright Smee traced the analogy between this arr demonstrated that that of a double boltaic circuit, and den . l be fluid, or, in other the communicating portion might words, that tubes filled with fluid would serve as well for and that the nerves electric telegraphs as ordinary wir es, b r res a . rte lt ria r. l perform a similar office in the body. He stated that there were great difficulties in the way of ascertaining the presence of a voltaic current in any fluid, but that he had succeeded in overcoming that difficulty by the use of what he termed the electro-voltaic test, which was exibited to the audience. In imitation of the action of light upon the eye, the lecturer stated that he had con structed numerous voltaic currents in which the current was solely determined by the action of the sun's rays. In imitation of the other organs of sensation, Mr. Smee exhibited a contrivance in which the voltaic circuit was caused by odours; in another contrivance a similar cur rent was produced by savours; in others the current was sat in motion by heat or force. The effect in each case, notwithstanding the delicacy of the experiments, was extremely well marked, and elicited much applause. Mr. Since exhibited voltaie combinations in imitation of the consmissures of the brain, and of the theoretical structure of that organ, which he stated is sufficient to account for all mental phenomena. The artificial elec tric eel deflected the galvanometer most powerfully, to the great delight of the audience, and the artificial mus cular substance moved a long lever over the space of three or four feet. The functions of the blood corpus cube were strikingly illustrated by an analogical experi ment with artificial corpuscale made of menhare and per nitrate of iron. The injections of brain ex hibited under the microscope in the library , were of surpassing beauty, and well illus o f an imal illus trated, " How fearfully and wond er f u ll y we are made." Th e l ec t urer summed u p by s h ow i ng that sea- Swaetrienesn' timreilnyd,dutehotougvhotllaaicndacatlilon and fu n ctions obedient , to phy sicallife laws; but, nevertheless, that science no less leads us to infer, than religion commands us to believe, that man is immortal, though that which is mortal should never be confounded with that which gives to man his immor tality. In the library there were exhibited a number of scientific inventions, the most prominent and most admired among which was a series of daugereotype portraits, taken by the improved process recently in vi nted by Mr. Mnyall, of the American Institution, in the Strand. The portraits were equal to any that have been produced by the most celebrated photographists; indeed, they had all the appearance of steel engravings of the better class, but possessed this additional and startling peculiarity, that the portraits were twice the size of those ordinarily produced. This is a great and decided improvement in an art which seemed already to have reached perfection. Letters from the relatives and friends of the officers and seamen serving in the Artie seas, in her Majesty's ships Erebus and Terror, Enterprise and Investigator, will be forwarded by her Majesty's ship North Star, if sent to the Secretary of the Admiralty on or before the 15t of May. M. ODILON BARROT announced yesterday to the Assembly, that the French Government had deter mined on an armed intervention in the affairs of Rome. As a reason for such intervention, he stated, in substance, that the counter-coup of the victories gained by the Austrians over the Piedmontese would be felt throughout the whole of Central Italy; that a crisis appeard to be imminent in the Roman States, and that France could not remain indifferent to such a state of things. He added, that the protection of natives of France resident in Italy, the necessity of maintaining the legitimate influence which France had long possessed in Italy, and the desire which the French Government felt to contribute towards obtaining for the Roman people a good Government based upon liberal institutions, rendered it a duty to the Cabinet to make use of the liberty which the Assembly had granted to it by its vote of the 20th of March, to occupy temporarily a portion of the territory of the Peninsula. The Minis ter, added that it was impossible for him to enter into any further details ; but could affirm that out of the intervention of France would arise efficacious guaran tees for the interests of their (the French) policy, and for the cause of true liberty. In finishing his speech, M. ODILON BARROT read a project of law, granting a credit to the Government of 1,200,000 f., to meet the additional expense required for the support, on a war footing, during three months, of the troops forming the expedition. At the request of the Minister, the Assembly im mediately met in its bureaux, to appoint a committee to make a report on the urgency of the project of law in question. It is said that there were serious dirisions in the Cabinet as to the propriety of adopting the measures propounded by M. ODILON BARROT to the Assembly, and that their adoption may be considered as an ad ditional triumph of the extreme reactionary party, inasmuch as the proposition for an immediate armed intervention emanated from M. DE FALLOUX, the panegyrist of the inquisition, the apologist of the massacre of St. Bartholomew's•day, and the repre sentative in the Cabinet of the Parti Pretre and the Jesuits, who has succeeded in forcing on his colleagues this Holy War. The order for the embarkation of the troops: from Toulon was dispatched on Saturday by telegraph. General OUDINOT commands the expe dition, which has by this time possibly arrived at Civita Vecchia. The French Government has, it is said, received information of the invasion of Tuscany by the Austrians. The Count DE MONTEMOLIN, accompanied by two aides-de-camp and an officer attached to the Prefec ture of the Police, passed through Paris on Sunday, on his way to Calais. La Prisse contradicts a statement of the Patrie to the effect that the Austrian General' Asraz had marched against Florence at the head of 16,000 men, and that the representatives of the great Powers assembled at Gaeta had not yet decided upon any course of action. The Debars gives an analysis of the revenue re turns, which is worthy of notice : " The total receipt for the first quarter is 168,344,000, while for the corresponding quarter of 1848 it was 177,964,000 f., making a difference of 9,620,000 f. ; but it allowance be made for the reduction of the salt tax the difference would in reality be re duced to 472,000 f. There is, therefore, but 'Wile difference between the two periods. The difference, moreover, is upon the two first months, for March presents a surplus of 3,367,000 f. Several branches of revenue show, notwithstanding, a deficiency. Registry duties are less, by 5,963,0001. The stamp duty has lost 691,000 f.; salt, 3,557,000 f.; potable liquors, 553,0001.; and the Post-office 3,448,000 f. It is to be hoped, how ever, that the advantages gained by the country by the reduction of the post-office tax will atone for the loss in curred by the revenue. On the other hand the customs show improvement. Import duties give an increase of 5,590,0001., and on the side of exports there is an ameli oration, which is encouraging for commerce and national industry. An unfavourable aide of the picture is that which relates to direct taxation. There remains to be recovered of the 45 centimes a sum: of 11,593,0001., which is not very large considering that it is an extra ardinary impost; but there is besides that, on the ordi nary taxes, a sum of 19,862,000 f. not yet collected. These sums make nearly 30 millions due on the year 1848, no great burden if business should resume its wonted activity." M. DE PALLoux is endeavouring to revive the days of Al.

THREE O'CLOCK.—The rumour of an immediate in tervention on the part of France in favour of the Pope, and the sending of an armed expedition to Civita Vec chia, does not appear to frighten the speculators on the Bourse. Both Funds and Shares were uncommonly steady to-day, and roso considerably. There was no news of any kind, with the exception of some details of the fall of Genoa.

The French Minister M. DE LESSEPS presented his letters of recal to the QUEEN on the 16th. As we expected, the rumour so industriously cir culated that Canamta had been killed by the troops of BEP DEL OLI turns out to be without foundation. In fact, it would appear as if the whole history of that battle were a fabrication, for the Fomento of Barce lona of the 9th states that CABRERA'S wounds having re-opened, he had given the command of the insur gent forces to four of his chiefs. MADRID BOLA, APRIL 16 —Three per Cents., 24; ; Fires, 11. The Exchange was 49 95 money. G It Al AN Y AND THE NORTHERN STATES. FRANKFORT. The National Assembly of Frankfort, in the sitting of the 13th, rejected a motion for taking into imrne diate consideration a proposition to the effect that the recal of the members by the different governments should not be allowed; and that if their indemnity should be withdrawn, it should be paid by the Trea sury of the empire. The Assembly also rejected a proposition for printing and circulating 100,000 copies of the Constitution. M. Saisom was re-elected President. Some discussion took place on the abo lition of public gambling-houses, but the Assembly adopted an order of the day maintaining its decree for the suppression of such places. From what the Minister of Justice said, however, it is assumed that the Central Government will not be unwilling to allow indemnities to be accorded. PRUSSIA. In the sitting of the Prussian Chamber of Deputies on the 13th, a proposition to the effect that the prin ciples laid down by the Government in the German question were not approved by the Chamber, and that the German Constitution could only be modified in the manner the Constitution itself provides, was re ferred to a committee. It is stated in a letter from Berlin of the 12th that M. CAMPHAUSiN, the Prussian Plenipotentiary to the Central Government of Germany, but who is now at Berlin, has had a conference with Count D'Annix, the result of which is that all dispatches, notes, &c., respecting the affairs of Germany shall e forwarded in duplicates simultaneously to Frankfort and Berlin. AUSTRIA. The news of the defeat of the Imperialists, com manded by WINDISCHGRATZ and JELLACHICII, on the sth and 6th of April, is fully confirmed. Letters from Vienna of the 11th state that the Magyars hav ing taken up a position in the Plain of Riikos, they had offered battle there to WlNDisCtiGuaTz ; but the Prince, seeing the enemy were too strong for him, had judged it prudent to retire into Pesth. A letter from Vienna of the 9th says—" The battle of llatvan has listed for two days, and when the last news came away was still raging with great fury on all points." Another letter of the 10th 88 ) 5 "We have just received the intelli gence that the Imperial army is before Pesth, and that the retreat of the baggage has been going on for 48 hours." The Colog .e Gazette, in a Vienna letter of the 11th, says—" We yesterday learned that the greater part of the insurgent army took up a position on the Rakosfeld, half a league from Pestb, and that a battle was about to take place. To-day we learn that the insurgents have offered battle to Prince WINDISCHGRATZ, but their for ces being superior he retired on Pesth." The Breslau Gazette has a letter from Pesth, dSted the morning of the 7th, which states that the Hungarian army, under DEMBINSKI, was under the walls of Pesth and that the AustriAus were flying fiona the town. The Cologne Gazette publishes a letter which states that at the battle of Hatvan two brigades of the right wing of the Imperialists, commanded by JELLACIIICII, were completely cut to pieces, the right wing itself broken, and the greater part of the Aus trian artillery taken by the Hungarian Hussars. Fiume and Buccari have been declared in a state of siege, in consequence of the discovery of a plot for an insurrection. Should those towns expel the Im perialists, an almost direct communication will be opened between the Hungarians- and the Venetians. VIENNA, APRIL B.—The urgency of events in Hungary demands a speedy and considerable rein forcement of the Imperial army, now equipped in that country, as the ranks have been greatly thinned by typhus. Considerable bodies of troops from Galicia and Italy are said to be destined for the ser vice. The lately disbanded six battalions of Infantry are being speedily equipped, and will be sent in small divisions to the army. The constitution of a seventh battalion has already been decided upon, which will be taken in hand so soon as the mobilisation of the sixth has been completed, when a fresh levy will be instantly ordered.—Prussian Staats Anzeiger, April 15. SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN. - ----- KIEL, Aram 10.—The troops of the empire will not enter Jutland till the 14th. It is said that the Danish troops in the Sundewitt have unanimously declared that they will not fight against the Germans. General HERSCHFELD has established his head-quar ters at Flensburg. The advanced posts are close on the frontier of Jutland. The Danes have been ordered to leave the Sundewitt, and retire to the Isle of Alsen, where they will wait the moment when they may be able to engage their enemies hand to hand. Crn the 12th Baron HaINTZE, late member of the Schleswig-Holstein Government during the Danish rule, a brother-in-law of Count REVENTLOW-PREETZ, left for London, as is supposed, for the purpose of canvassing interest for the cause of the rebellious duchies with the British Government and the diplo matists in London. HANOVER, APRIL 12.—The Hanoverian Zeitung contains the official report of the engagement between the Hanover Brigade and the Danes at Ulderup on the 6th of April. From this report it appears that the Hanoverian brigade, which marched from See yard to drive out the Danes from Ulderup, laboured under great disadvantages from the narrowness of the road, which retarded the advance of the main column till an engagement had already commenced with the avant guard and the Danish outposts. The main body of the Danish army, of about 8,000 or 9,000 men, was behind Satrup, where a sharp argue busade commenced, which lasted several hours. The Hanoverian troops were driven from their position, near Ulderup, and compelled to withdraw to Baurup. The engagement lasted from half-past eleven to six o'clock. ITALY. Advices from Turin of the 12th state that the de legated councils of the municipalities of Alba, Pine rolo, Aosta, and Tortona, have been dissolved by a Royal ordinance. The KING has named General Mem' DI BOGLIO President of the Commission of Inquiry relative to the late campaign. On the 11 th of April all the forts and gates of Genoa were occupied by the Piedmontese troops, and the barricades were nearly all removed. General AVFnk had taken refuge on board an American steamer. M. PLEZZA, Commissioner of the Piedmontese Government at Parma, has issued a protest, dated the sth, against the acts of General D'Asrau in that city. It states that the articles of the armistice of Novarra do not warrant the occupation of Parma by the Austrains, much less a change in the civil and political state of the duchy. M. PLEZZA also pro tests against the dissolution of the National Guards, that being only a civil force; and also because, during an armistice, concluded as a preliminary of peace, neither of the belligerent parties is warranted in diminishing the forces of the other; lastly, he protests against the acts by which the Sardinian civil authorities are forced to suspend their functions de facto, which is contrary to the very letter of the ar mistice, and not within the power of the military authorities who signed it. In the sitting of the Tuscan Constituent Assembly of the 2d, GUERAZZI made the following declaration : —"Upon my soul and conscience, I do not think that the country can be saved unless the Assembly adopts the following resolutions :-1. That the full powers conferred on the Government be not illusory, and that it may act according to exigencies, for the weal of the country. 2. That the Assembly be prorogued for a time on condition that the Executive take no important resolution without consulting it, on pain of impeach ment. 3. That all discussion on the form of go vernment be suspended. 4. That the members of the Constituent Assembly remain in Florence, to be em ployed by the Executive as circumstances may require." After a strong discussion, the third reso lution was passed ; the Assembly prorogued to the lsth, but the members were not obliged to remain in Florence. It was further declared that the Executive shall take no steps to decide the future fate of Tus cany without the consent of the Assembly ; but leave was given to issue two millions' worth of Exchequer bills, to provide for the expenses of the war. The Chief of the Executive Power and the Minis try have issued a declaration, stating that there is not the least foundation for the rumour that they have made any overtures t en di ng to t h e re-establishment inTuscany of the house of Lorraine. According to letters received from Parma, several Austrian regiments are on march towards Tuscany and Romagna, under the orders of General D'ASPRE. The National Guard of Leghorn has been mobi lised for the defence of the country. Letters from Rome state that nine thousand guns have just been received, which have been manufac tured in France for the Republican Government. By order of the triumvirs, every citizen is bound to sell his arms to the Government within four days. Count CODROUCHI has been arrested at Rome. The buildings of the Inquisition have been changed into lodgings for the poor. On the 2d, about 1,800 Neapolitans, with half a battery, and protected by three gunboats, on Lake Frodi, attacked the fort of the Epitaffio, belonging to the Romans, but soon retired. The Republican troops on the Neapolitan frontier are to be concentrated at Terni, under the orders of General FERRARI. They are said to amount to about 40,000 men. Correspondence received from Ravenna and An cona asserts that Admiral ALBINI has pledged his word not to abandon Venice with the Sardinian fleet, and to receive no orders from Genoa, and the crews of his vessels have consented to follow his patriotic example. The Corriere Mercantile of Genoa, of the 11th, publishes the following letter addressed on the 9th to Lord HARDWICKE, commanding her Majesty's ship Vengeance, stationed in that port :- 1 " Signor,—You have entered our port with your ship under the flag of a friendly and honourable nation, and you have been received as a friend ; the hospitality of the city and port has not been refused to you.

JEPH AVIZZANA." The P os iti vo o f Rome of" th OS e 7th states that the Government of the Republic has intercepted some important correspondence coming from Gaeta, and directed to Civita Vecchia, discovering the plots for effecting the counter-revolution. Several arrests have been made in consequence ; among the arrested, who are chiefly priests, is a prelate, and canon of St. John of Latralz. Total 9,390,000 It will thus be sten that the population of Mexico approximates closely to that of the whole of the other South American States which belong to Spain, and, what is of equal importance to industrial pursuits, the, area over which they are spread is not now quite 900,000 . square miles; whilst the other states embrace a surface of 31,380,000 square miles. As far, therefore, as popu lation forms an element of national resources, the ed• vantages which Mexico possesses over any of the other states are obviously pre-eminent. Again, in reference to the value of `property. The National Institute of Geography and Statistics presented a return to the supreme Government in 1839, which made the aggregate income from the various branches of industry in the country amount to 300,000,000 dollars per annum, representing, at five per cent. interest per annum, a capital of 6,000,000 , 000 d o ll ars . Supposing, therefore, Mexico were to have recourse to a direct tax of five per cent. on the yearly income of the country, it would produce 15,000,000 dollars per annum, , which would be more than sufficient to pay all the current ex penses of the Government, including the interest on the public debt on a peace establishment. In order to show th e pro g ressi ve improvement in the resources of the country under the Government of Spain, Baron Humboldt, in his view of the subject, states that the yearly revenue of the vice-royalty during the five years from 1763 to 1767, both inclusive, was 6,169,164 dollars, and that the average of the five years from 1795 to 1799, also both inclusive, was 20,462,307 dollars. Such was the position of Mexico even under the old restrictive system of Spain, when the population did not much exceed 6,000,000. It is almost unnecessary to state that the great draw back on the resources of the country since it threw off its Spanish connexion was the rivalry of the military chiets that were the creations of the revolution. This rivalry was the fertile source of intestine feuds, which prevented anything like settled government, up to the aggression of the United States in 1846. A regular army, averaging upwards of 30,000 men, was kept on loot, at an average expense of rather upwards of 12,000,000 dolls. per annum, during many years; but notwithstanding this drawback there is not the slightest doubt of the country having been steadily increasing its capital. The present Government has, however, gives ample proof that they are duly sensible of the evil re mitting from keeping up such a lurge military establish ment, and the army is now reduced to rather under 10,000 men, which are considered to be sufficient to pre serve order on the frontiers. The next point upon which all the successive Govern• meats have chiefly erred has been in imposing by far too high a scale of duties on all articles constituting their fo reign;trade. This is a matter that has been remonstrated against by the ablest men in the state, including nearly every successive Finance Minister, as tending to di minish the revenue by not lets than one-half. The par ties that have chiefly supported the system of high duties were the wealthy proprietors, that had never had any in tercourse with general society, and were deeply imbued with the prejudices they had imbibed from their fathers, who bad supported the system of Spanish commercial policy. The minds of this class were artfully acted upon by a small section in some of the principal towns, who had some capital embarked in manufactures, and whose motives were purely selfish, and their actions altogether inimical to the public weal. It is on all hands ad mitted that the future progress of the country exclu sively depends upon a large modification of the tariff of duties, and according to the recent accounts there is every prospect that the Congress now sitting will ar range them on a principle that will give a vast stimulus to the national induitry, and a corresponding increase to the public revenue. There are plenty of men in Mexico that thoroughly understand the interests of the country in this respect, and it is a great error to suppose that there is any defi cit.i.cy of men of talent competent to conduct their financial affairs. Even in the midst of the contusion of the civil wars the Finance Ministers indicated no lack of ability, but as we have above stated they were baffled in carrying out their plans by the narrow views and prejudices of a majority of their representatives. Amongst others Dun Antonio Gray, from his published works, clearly showed that he was fully master of the whole subject. Some of these Ministers, from a careful investigation, showed that more than halt the imports into the country were contraband, by which the collec tors of the revenue were corrupted, and the public in come diminished i❑ proportion. It will be obvious also that the system would greatly check the consumption, from the disproportionate prices of commodities com pared with what they would have been under a moderate scale of duties. If these two main evils, therefore, are corrected, as they at present promise to be by the de facto Government of Mexico, no doubt can be enter tained that the Government will have ample means to cover all current expenses, inclusive of the interest on the national debt. Thu Mexican people are only a little later in waking this movement than some of the states on the Pacific, who have much less ample resources. Chili, for example, went on for many years in the same state of anarchy, arising from precisely the tame source—viz., keeping.up a large standing army, and the rivalry of the officers that had sprung up out of the revolutionary contest. They went also into the same error respecting the, com mercial tariff, and both evils were corrected in Chili by the individual energy of Don Manuel Ilengifo, who was fortunately called to administer the finances of that - state. acid succeeded in reducing the army to a police force, and opening the country to foteign enterprise by a free admission of emigrauts and a molerate scab.; of import duties. Peru more recently, chiefly also by the single efforts of an individual, has imitated the course pursued by Chili, end promises to meet with equal success. And with these examples before them, and the advantageous consequences, the Mexican Government sad Legislature have a power►ul stimulus to induce them to persevere in a similar course. There are some other points of the subject which our space requires us to defer to a future time. We have been at considerable pains to consult s variety of authorities, but we recommend those interes•ed in Mexican affairs to a compilation made by R. C. Wylie, who collected information for the committee of South American bondholders, and which work was published by Bally Brothers, Royal Exchange-buildiage.—Mors ing Paper.
