Correspondence Of the Herald.l
TRENTON, Oct. 30, lS43.

DEAR Sir
have quite budget of news for you. Having
taken seat in the cars, my attention was directed
to my. fellow travellers, and, upon looking around,
who should l find opposite me but the "godlike
Daniel" His philosophical physognomy peered
out from beneath his broad-nmmed hat, and his
gigantic proportions were covered to the neck in
sRuf colored surtout, with horn buttons. He was
reading the Herald OF yesterday, and when he came
to that prophecy OF yours, he raised up his head TO
see whether he was observed, and then giving a
semi philosophical smile, very quietly folded up the
aforesaid Herald, and deposited It carefully in the
right hand pocket OF that 6 snuf-colored surtout"
is rife here that his presence is required IN
Washington, in order to keep the Captain right
about ceraiH appointments and removals IN and
about that marble building facing on Wall street
In the same car that contained the "Godlike,"
came his Excelency, Daniel Haines, Governor
elect of New Jersey. He WIS greeted on his arrival
by six cheers from large delegation at the depot
He has takon up his quarters at Howell's =" Indian
Queen" AT nall past three he came into the Coun-
Gil Chamber, and was orn In, signed the roll, and
took his seat President OF the Couacll. Before
taking his seat, however, he made short and per-
| tlnent address.
The address was listened to by large auditory
with intense interest. The lobbies were crowded
to perfect Jam to get sight of the new Governor,
who. promises thus far to make a most efficient
chief mag istrate.
Yours, truly, ANXIOUS.
Laguna to the 4th instant, was received in New Or
leans on the 23rd.
Active preparations had been for some time
making, and hostiIities were about to be recon-.
menced between Mexico and Yucatau.
The latest accounts received at Laguna from
Vera Cruz stated that there was no probability of
the Yucatan Commissioners coming to any AMIGA
bic understanding with the Mexican government.
We may now look for a renewal of the warfare
that made up almost the sum total OF the reports
from that country during the last six months or
year.
We have also dates from Tobasco to the Path
Sept. The port Of Laguna was closed at least
far as the commerce of the department OF Yucatan
was concerned.
The yellow fever was committing great ravagee
among the troops stationed in San Juan Bantista.
The State of Tobasco, at the last sitting of its
Junta departmental, had proclaimed for Santa
Anna 'the well deserving OF his country, the vrtu-
Gus and talented man, the hero oil Vera Cruz and
Tanpico, as their choice for President of the re-
generated Mexican Republic
FROM HAYrI.-We are informed that Captain s.
Thomas, of North Yarmouth, and his mate Joseph
p Curts, Of Leeds, ct the brig Zebra, OF the former
place, had AZ the beginning OF this month been con-
hned in prison at Gonaires tor sixty days, on ac-
count OF a transaction, which we mentioned some
DAYS since, in which an Engshman, we believe
was killed in trying to get away part Of Captain
rhomas's crew. The authorities have not vet pro
ceeded so far 10 ind bill against the accused
and it is said that there will be no jury until next
year, and that In consequence ct this datorlness oil
the Hayden government, our countrymen viii con-
tnue to be confined, without trial, unless our 60
vernment interteres.
