LATE FROM MEXICO.

By the arrival at Galveston of the L. S. brig
Somers, Capt Gerry, we have later dates from
Vera Cruz.
From the Mexican news brought by the Som.
ers, and which is made at some length in the
Galveston Civilian, we learn that the vosnTo
still prevailed TO great extent
Active steps have been taken to increase the
strength of the Castle. Some heavy pieces of
ordnance have been mounted and brig from
the United States a few days ago laden with
shells and other munitions. AS much ignorance
seems to prevail at Vera Cruz as here in regard
to the movements and designs of France, but
these measures of defence appear to have been
taken against any sudden attack from that
quarter.
Information was received at Vera Cruz, on the
2ith of June, from the city of Mexico, that the
Mexican Congress had refused to grant President
Santa Anna the four millions of dollars and 30,
600 additional troops called for by him for his
proposed invasion of Texas
Considerable vaporng has been made against
Texas by those in the employ of the Mexican
Government, but it is believed by intelligent
persons at Vera Cruz, only with view to obtain
u better price for the claim that Mexico sets up
to the former country; and it is thought that the
prospect Of obtaining pay for this claim from the
United States viii make Santa Anna more averse
to an acknowledgement of Texan independence

Sourn CARoLlNA'--Amld tho tralorou'
cries that 90 up from the worn out soil o
old tory Carolina, for " Texas or Disun
ion" i is exceedingly pleasant to hear the
tstill small voice. Of the little band Of
patriots yet remaining in that state, raised
for their own country, with or without
Texas. The patriots OF South Carolina,
though few in numbers, as in the days
that "tried mems souls" are made OF the
right stuff, and would again combat for
their native land, were a British army on
aheir borders and gore-faced treason in
4leir midst. The following resolutions,
sscently passed by the Charleston Clay
Ciab, are worthy of the patriotic de-
scendants Of the Piuckneys and the Sum
tiers.
ReSoired, That this Association adheros
with unanimity and increasing zeal to
ahe nomination Of Henry Clay as the
Wing candidate for the Presidency Of the
United States.
ReSolped, That the policy or impoIi"y
OF the annexation entire Of Texas TO the
Union, is an open question, upon which
the members Of this Association may diff
Ger, without impairing their zeal for the
election Of Mr.. Clay, or their confidence
IN one another.
ReSolred, That We view with mingled
feelings ofregret and indignation, the at
tempts which have been recently made by
afew fanatics at the North and South, to-
raise the terrible cry Of Disunion. That
we regard the Union of these States as
indispensable to the preservation Of their
liberties and the promotion of their dear
est rights and interests, and that as we
received this Union from our forefathers,
r. bright and glorious Inheritance, so
will we as far as in US lies, transmit it toI
our poSterity pure and unsulled."
