Menico.--I'iles of the Registro Off cial Of the city of Mexico, down to the 20th March, have been received by the way of New Orleans. The most inter~ esting intelligence which they contain is that of the surrender to the government of the town and port of Acapulco, Inc last fortified point on the south coast which remained in the hands of tiie par- tisans of the late Guerrero. II appears that numbers of the disafIected were daily presenting themselves, to claim the pardon of the Government.

The Captain of the vesselinterfered and forbade this course. The man, being by this time nearly ex-

Edinburgh & Quarterly Reviews

As organs of sound criticism, as repositories Of lite.
rary reference and scientific information, these Re-
views continue unrvalled They are sought after and
read not only Great Britain, but in every court and
nation in the European continent They are acknow'
lodged to be the most interesting OF all European re-
rodicsl Works, nothing that is valuable pohtcs IN
science, in general literature, escapes their notice.
No periodical works have ever attempted the vsst
range which they take of human affarsi nor can any
legislator, philosopher, scholar, entirely neglect
them, without feeling the Inconvenience attending this
deficiency
The present extraordinary agitation among the ma
tons of Europe, calculated to render these Reviews
at th time unusually interesting. and the strength OF
talent which has distinguished them, appears to
rise with the OCCASION and their pages exhibit depth
Of and development OF intellectual
wealth and energy. that must command the admira
ton of every inte ihgent reader.
Since their republication here, Reviews on similar
plan have been commenced in this country, that are
conducted with great ability. 1t should be recoect'
ed however, that many works of extraordinary merit
appear in Europe that do not reach this country I'M
I'll long after their publication. if at ALI and those
among us who may be learned, orcurious, search

their character be their existence, but through
the medium of foreign Review; nor should The

meagre view of politics which is afforded by the dis

FORE to te,ract from the acknowledged and increasing
merit of own literature, permit us to say; that 50
long AS the valuable portion OF literary and sceE-
