MEXICO.

Commercial letters from Mexico, represent barlsejess
matters at Tampico and Vela Cruz as in a most depres.,4l
condition. The continued alterations made in the

consequence was felt in several heavy failures. i"000
however, considered that the want of goods will 50
convince Gen. Santa Anna and his government oft
error they have committed in their late arrangeraen;
with reference as well as to the increase of duties 89iiig
the prohibitions effected in various instances. Sc!t,

Lord Aberdeen and the Mexican representative at.hes
British Court, Mr. Murphy, nor has it transpired ifilek'ne,

A hope is in the meanwhile expressed by the mereba of

Santa Anna appears to have conceived some exceedlogo
strange notions respecting this country, and while he vi
so vitally affecting our commerce by his insane interfereece
with those engaged in it, rendering by his conduct
speculative enterprise, with a view to the future, P,_er„l;nus
in the extreme, he was occupied with certain azio"gt
plans for his own personal and individual aggrandisew..ebie
which betokened a selfishness altogether incomP3,ll4o
with that superiority of mind for which credit bas.
givuu him. With these there would be the less 1115P;olt
tion to find fault, were the interests of our corarnereeias
substantially damaged by the inimical steps taken by h
upon the other points noticed. His petty vanities, in col
junction with his gross invasion of the recognised rig
and privileges of foreigners settled at Vera Cruz and Tilt
Pico, call for remark, inasmuch as they would certant
lead to the fair conclusion that the intellect of the to
vidual is in some degree disturbed. The fact that this'll;
personage was at his farm of Mango de Clavo, in ted
vicinity of Vera Cruz, making preparations for an expeeith
attack from the British naval forces, for the bad (.031
shown in the non settlement of the commercial claim
made upon his exchequer, and which have hereto ;85
formed a subject of comment, may perhaps be regaraild,
some confirmation of the justice of the suspicion m_'o/
many must naturally have formed concerning the statet to
his mind, for, on the whole, it is almost impossible en
fancy that his late frantic proceedings must have been "
effect of at least a partial or temporary aberration.
