New York Papers to the 24th ult., and Philadelphia to
the 21st, were received yesterday. The following, which is from
Philadelphia Paper of the 17th of May, is the only article we find
in them of any interest:—" Mr. Morier. the British Coenmissiorer
to Mexico, who recently landad at New York, left Mexico in
March, without having succeeded in his nerciation with the W.
remittent of that republic. The British Minister was very desirous
that one of the Mexican Ministers should be deputed to England. in
order to explain the objections to Mr. Crnning's proposals. Presi.
dent Vic oria yielded w this desire, and informed the Senate of his
resolution. The body replied, that they had a right to participate is
the nomination, as hue Constitution says expressly, that all diplo-
matic envoys will be appointed with the consent of the Senate.
The President disagreed, and urged that the Minister in question
would be sent to continue in London, the negotiations which had
commenced in Mexico: the Senate persisting, die President re-
luctantly submitted the nomination of the Secretary of %Var.
Gomez Pedraza, for their approval. Senor Perinea had but one
vote. The debate in the Senate on the subject, as reported in the
Aguilu, is not without interest, and the di.tincfioe take) by the
Presideot not a little singulas. This matter bears a remarkable
affinity to one of the questions which have been .• lengthily"
debated by our own Senate during the prevent Sessions of our
Congress."
Hazard and Co. respectfully remind the public chat the
period which terminates all Lotteries is fast approaching. Ths
great demand has already caused an advance in the price of Tickets
and Shares, and a further rise will take place next Monday, June
19th ; a purchase this day is therefore recommended. Hazard and
Co., as Joint Contractors, have formed a brilliant Scheme, contain-
ing Six Prizes of 30,0001.! All in one day, July 18th, when Lot-
teries end for ever. Hazard and Co. sold In one Lottery all the
30,0001. prism ; and within these few weeks, three 20,0001. Prizes
in one day.—Royal Exchange Gate; 26, Cornbill ; and 324,0 x turd •

IVHAT'II GOOD FOR THE GOUT, RHEHMATIAM, AND
LUMBAGO ?—A Noble Lord, who had been for years most sore',
and grievously afHicted with the gout, rheumstism, and lumbago.
went to Charles Wright's last Masquerade at the Argyll Rooms, in
the character of the Devil. lle was, as till Devils deserve to he,
hunted about from one end of the room to the other, first by a
Haslrgnin• then by ■ Paul Pry, and next by a Don Glovarisr
and a Plutr,terntun ; until at last he was DO completely exhausied
that he was compelled to retire to one of the private boxes, abets
he refreshed himself, not with one or lwo, but with no kits than
three bottles, of Charley Wright's superior sparkling and elTelm-
illr Champagne! Although when he entered the rOOlllll he expe-
rienced some queer twinges of the above complaints, yet, ere he 1,3,1
tintahed one bottle, the gout had left him, at the conclusion of the
second the rheumatism had made its exit, and at the end of th •
third the lumbago had been served with an ejectment ; and
so n,i-
raculmts have been the effects of this said Champagne, aided by
the natural excitement attendant upon a Masquerade, that tU
Noble Lord has been entirely free front all aches and pains from
that period to this present writing. Who would not go to a Masque-
rade and drink Champagne?
