WAR WITH MExIco.-The following article appeared
in the Washington Tntelligencer of Wednesday.
We learn that information has been received by pri-
yate letters in this city, of the ports Of Mexico having
been shut against the vessels of the United States
measure induced probably by the embarcaioa of so
many OF our citizens in hostes against the authori-
ties OF that country. We have no further information
however than the naked fact of the shutting of the ports
Tins measure will be very seriously felt in New Or
leans, the exports to Mexico from that city for which
specie has been usually received in return amounting
to six or eight millions Of dollars annually.
There rumors also, from New Orleans, of one or
two very heavy mercantile failures in that city.
1t will be reCoected that when the first movement
Was made in this city in favor Of Texas stated our
belief that negotiation had been commenced be-
tween Mexico and France, with view of menacing the
United States, and bringing government into the
desPicable condition of suppieating boon for an
honest debt of FIVE millions.
For some time past, there has been secret agent of
France in the United States, collecting information and
consulting most vulnerable points. IL we are
not mistaken the Hon. Albert Gallain knows something
of the agent but it is possible he received his nor
nation under the seal of confidence would not under
any consideration pry into any of his Heaven
preserve from such calamity! Ii would be more
than shoulders can bear. Should, however, the
from Mexico prove be true, and inclined
to believe So have no doubt our gallant President
viii be ready in few days deliver another Special
Message on tine affairs of Mexico and Texas. The i'm
pudence of shutting the Mexican ports to shipping
will not be brooked and be brooked by the United
States.
As the great drama of the present age is hicksnng
all around us, we have placed our famous EXPRESS
again ON the line between New York and Washington.
These are squally times truly.

If at all consistent with duty, never

An Erpunsing Precedeat.-1he Eng.
lsh Parliament OF 1921 were involved IN
dispute with their Sovereign, James L, IN
reference TO certain claims OF Parliamentary
privileges and liberties The monarch had
sent them message, communicating ms
pleasure that none III the House should pre-.
sumo to NEEDLE with any thing concerning
his government and mysteries of state.
ihis excited the Indignation OF House
quite as servlle as our present House OF hep
reseniatiyes; and perhaps, If possible, little
more so. In reply to a petition which the
Commons drew up touching this matter, tue
King told them politely that they were un'
fit for the duties OF government, aud that
their privileges we're derived from the grace
and permission of his ancestors and himself.
| The Commons became alarmed tor their
personal security, as we'll as their existence
as a delberatiye assembly, and after long
and warm debate, entered protestdfion IN
their Journals, in which they declared that
their liberties, franchises, and jurisdictions,
so far from being derived merely from the
grace OF the Crown, were the ancient aud
undoub,ed bir,hnght and inheritance OF the
subjects Of England.
To this the King demurred, and ADJOURN
ed the Commons. lie was now bent upon
exercising his propensltes for erpungtns.
To this end, he adopted somewhat more
summary mode than that now proposed by
MIR. Benton. He sent for the journal OF the
Commons, and erpmged the offensive re.
cord with his own hand. This Is one OF the
: few precedents IN history, IN which the re-
cords OF one branch of Government have
been erpmged for the qualification OF the
Executive. Ii was reserved for the present
times to exhibit tanner compliance with the
Executive will, than could be comprised II
