MEXICO.

We have received from Mexico files of El Monitor
Republicans, Le Trait d'Union, and El Universal, to
the 17th inst. We translate from them the following
news:—
The question of extraordinary powers, to permit the
Government to extricate itself from its difficult position
—where are the finances of the country ?—was not re-
solved at the latest dates. This special committee pre-
sented the report on the 14th ult. The committee con-
ceded to the Government the extraordinary powers, but
limit them more carefully than the House of Deputies
' did. Thus the Executive Power is authorised to dis-
charge the paid einploy&, and to call others without a
salary; to lower the tariff of the Custom House to five
per cent. below the tariff of the United States; to re-
ceive the 1,680,000 dolls. detained upon the remaining
American indemnity ; to pay the interior creditors, but,
after their consent, not individually, but by classes; to
occupy the national property; to pursue the application
of the law upon the public credit; to take the revenue of
tobacco and mints, but giving an indemnity to the present
administrations•, to suppress the direct taxes, and substi-
tute in place indirect taxes, &c. This report was dis-
cussed for a long time, and was voted by twenty-seven
against nineteen votes. The discussion of the articles
followed then, and it appeared, after the first resolution,
that the Senate would adopt it without many changes.
The House of Deputies, for the question on the
treaty of Tehuantepec, had resolved that the report of
the special committee should be privately discussed.
This report was adopted with some slight modifications.
