CORRESPONDENCE WITH SANTA ANA.

The Diario del Gobierno, Of the Goth utmo, pub
shed in the city of Mexico contains an interesting
spondence of Col b. E Bee, of the Texan lega-
ton and General Hamilton, respectively, with Santa
Ana. Col Bees letter dated New Orleans, Decem-
Der 27 1912 compliments Santa Ana for his frmness
and isdom and tells him he can never conquer lex
as that the people of the valley OF the Mississippi
would unite with Texas to oppose his designs, and
that if he will submit the question of recognition to
the INTERPRETATION of Great Britain and the United
States existing difficulties may be amlcaby adjusted
Col B. concludes with recommending the Santa Fe
prisoners to the kind treatment of Santa Ana. Santa
Ana's reply expresses much personal kindness for
Col Bee but disdanfully rejects his oyerures boasts
of the courage and resources of Mexico; abuses the
Texans designing, usurplng and ambitious race,
of which he regards the Santa Fee expedition as evil
dence of IT. declares his determination to prosecute
his designs against Texas, and insists that he has
treate, the Santa Fe prisoners with humanity, and in
accordance with the usages of war, and that he be-
rated Van Ness and Combs account OF the respect
ability of their families and as an example OF the clc-
| mency with which justice is tempered
Gen. Hamon's letter is dated on board the frigatc
Forth January Is, 1912. He opposes to Santa Ana
an indemnify of So 900 100 and bonus of $780, 600
to be secretly placed the dspo of the agents OF
the Government, the consideration OF treaty OF
peace and limitation with Texas. The reply of San
Ia Ana long and rude one abusive OF General H.,
styling his proposition insult and piece of auda-
CITY, and expressive of determination never to CON
tribute to the recognition Of the Independence OF
Texas.
Appended to the letter is the protest drawn up by
him in June 1886, against the government OF Texas,
for having violated certain promises OF KIND treatment
made towards himself and Gen. Woo-for infringing
treaty for the exchange of prsoners for violence
offered to his person, &c.

THE UNIoN.-Despte the predictions of the enc
mics of the National Government or Constitution, we
apprehend danger for years to come TO the Union
Sectional interests may shake it to its foundation
ambition may assault it, mistaken views with regard
to its powers may warp it for time erroneous but
honest notions of expedency may produce serious
dissensons, still believe shall hold together
till our territorial extent and our population is so
great that division is imperiousy necessary. The
North is devotedly attached to the Union, and with
the exception of few hot-hcadcd we think that
the same can be said of the South. 1t must, how
ever, occur to every rejecting mind that safety
consists in adherng nearly possible TO the letter
of the Constitution. That is our chart, and while
continue to be guided by it may reasonably sup
pose that as it has for long pereod carried us hap
PLY through the of life the advantages deriya
BILE from il will not for very years be less than pre-
sent. Every innovation prepares the way for an
other SO that if this be permitted in single instance
we shall at last be left without any certain principles
to direct us. So unquestionabe is this that whoever
may differ from the strict constructionsts will at least
give them the credit of being honest They must be
admitted to pursue the only safe track. To pretend
to be governed by Constitution, and yet make mere
expediency, under any circumstances, the rule of de-
termination for ITS provisions is udicrous it is
dangerous. 1t is to all ntents and purposes intro
ducng a new Constitution without the consent of the
people. II is altering the form Of Government with
out the assent of the governed.

CAUTION TO NOTE SHAvERS.

A case of some Importance has lately been decided
in the Supreme Court of this State. The assignee of
an msolvent debtor sued Joshua Bennett for three
times the amount of interest money formerly loan
ed to the nsolvent and recovered The amount was
about thirteen hundred dollars. The defence was
that the as ignee had no claim but the Chief Justice
decided that although laws against usury, in former
days. were penal yet the present laws on the subject
in this Commonwealth were of remedial character
The right which the insolyent had to recover for
taking this usurous interest was IN The nature OF a
vested interest, which passed to the plaintiff
sionee with the other assets, SC. of the lnsolyent
The result was that the plaintiff must recover, and
the court ordered the bill and answer to be referred
to master in chancery, and report how much was
to be paid

should be with the determination TO make It's IRON manu-
press heavy upon her proud and graspng aistocfacy
and to make her own soil reek with their blood
BY making our Navy what II ought to be, we Gun

she has offered to every nation on the globe l nc

ficling upon her purse proud nobility some OF thost

While the nation has grown up into giant youth

From this it will be that Exchange notes have
deprec lated still farther and also Atchafalaya.
We have the most heartrending and painful accounts
from the country relative to the losses arising from
the possession Of this A. E. |. o. currency. The
amount afoat is immense.
In town, hundreds and thousands of laborng peo-
pie have been deprived of their all by the losses on
this shin plaster currency
We are informed that every Bank working under
the new Bank law will be in position to pay specie
on the LIST Of July next and maintain specie payments
This is the inevitable result of the workings OF the
Law, and nothing can prevent il but mal-admnistra-
ton of the Boa Of Currency, and of this there is
not the most remote danger The good effects of the
law have already been experienced and so soon as
the outla,c Banks shall have been disposed of, the
result will he triumphant.
We have now to record the fact of the disappear
ance of
EDWARD YoRKE, Pres. of Exchange Bank,
RICHARD BRENNAN, Cashier Of do.
The name of the Teller of the Atchafalaya Bank,
who has also disappeared, is SIMON O'CALLAGHAN.
Why these persons have left the city, 1t is not
fully known. OF Mr.. O'Callaghan, they assert that
he IL deaulter though nothing is known positively.
1t an error OF ours, yesterday when we said, that
he had reimbursed his securities II appears that his
bonds had out and they had never been renewed,
such confidence was had in him.
In regard to Mr. Yorke and Mr.. Brennan, the
causes Of their disappearance, at this uncture,
not known. Various rumors afoat respecting
them. A few days will xplan all. The excitement
against them has grown to great height among the
unfortunate note holders.
Monday is the last day Of grace for the outlaw
Banks If they persist, they will dig their own
graves for the laws must and will PROSTATE them and
II is Just j, should be so.
We understand that Messrs Yorke and Minturn
were securities on the bond Of the Canal Bank, for
the imprisonment Of Comfy.
