IMPORTANT FROM MExIco.-lt appears by the IN
telligence from Mexico, which we received yester-
day. and give elsewhere, that the Hon John Slldel,
our minister 10 that nation, for the purchase OF Cali
fornia, &c had arrived at Vera Cruz, and that there
were indications of another revolution IN that I'M
settled and uncertain republic.
Apart from the safe arrival out OF our new minis
ter, this news is interesting and important Accord

of the last revolution in Mexico, and who was uii-
fortunately set aside the disposition OF The OIL

the latter enterprise, and, letters from Havana,
state that he was his march to the city of Next

will create some trouble at home. 10 the present ex-
cited state of the public mind in the interior of Mex

famed by the friends Of Santa Ana-and the non
payment Of the troops by the existing government,

is so inclined. We may, therefore, expect to hear
OF one, or an attempt at one, by every arrival.

INCREASE OF PoPULATIoN.-We have received

These are the returns from six States only. If
the ratio of increase be the through the coun-
try, the aggregate population in the United States
is, at this moment, not far from twenty millions
The annexation of Texas, the acquisition of Cali
fornia, and the settlement of the Oregon question
will give an impulse to the country-a momentum,
sufficiently powerful, to increase the population
to twenty-five millions in less than ten years
perchance in five years. We shall then be out of

for this objecta man who it was thought would his
friendly relations with him, be able TO make himself
useful to France. Such man found in the per-
son Of ono Captain Page intimate friend of Rosas and
his family. This gentlemen made the bearer OF a
secret message to Rosas and empowered verbally
on the part of the French ministry to inter- into terms
with Rosas The matter was profound secret and per-

nanmity and indignation OF President Rosas. Outraged
apparently by such double dealing he refused to lend
himself to be party in the intrigue and published to
