We received by yesterdays mail from New Or leans tine accounts by the arrival from Vera Cruz, of which runior reached the day previous The in ballast, chartered by the Mexican government 10 bring dispatches 10 it's Consul m New Orleans, and passenger who has dispatches for the British Min ister at Washington. This gentleman passed through Mobile on hIs way north on Wednesda,.
 The contents of these commun cations had not transpmed The Inst impressions were that ihey brought intelligence of the actual declaration of war This was, however, inconsistent with the official communications of the Mexican Secretary, which were received by the way of Havana, asking for new powers enable the Executive avold the "terri- be responsibility" ofwar with the "American Re- public" The next report was th0t the Mexican Congress had actually passed an act recognizing the Independence of Texas. This is far true that both branches of Congress have concurred in au- thorising the President to negotiate with Texas on the basis of independence. The New Orleans Jet- ferson'an speaks of this as from positive inorma- tion, and adds that the enemies of annexation are making the most of their time in promulgatIng the news; that Captain Elliott was waiting at Vera Cruz for his despaches from Mexico, for to hIs departure for Texas, in the frigae "Eurydice, and that Commissioners on the part of Texas had sub- sequently left Vera Cruz in company ~i,h Captain Elliot, bearing with them an acknowledgement by Mexico of the independence of Texas, on condition that Texas shall reJect the measure of annexation. This is curious sort of condition which these Eu- ropean functonaries endeavoring to engralt upon the political condition of Texas. IndepeDdeuce. which Texas has in fact, and which both France and England have expressly acknowledged as fact is to receive the sanction of one feeble power which has srugg led to defeat it in vain if there shall be given a new pledge that will not be used adversely to the incllnatons of other nations, some of them three thousand mi les of!
 The act of annexing is undoubtedly passed. A less credited rumor is that Santa Anna is at the head of the Mexican army.
 There IS furtler that California had re. voed and completely established it's independence.
 We copy the following from the New Orleans Picayune:
 Upon reliable authority than mere rumor. We may state that His Excellencv Senor Juan de Di os Canado passed through Vera Cruz about the first month. upo" mission, AS sad. from the Gov. ernmen o Mexico to that of the United States - This crcumstanc taken in connection with the ne gotiation then pending with Texas and the secrecy with which the object of his mission was kent from the public, caused no little commotion in that city, One Of the jOnrnais, apparently more favorable 10 than peace, m remarkng upon this mission, ex claims: "Everything, il appears, has been coniided diplomacy-the hands of strangers are thrus into fhis business-How shall we liqudaie? ?-What will become of the countr, 2--The storm IS raging over our heads-the thunder reverberates above usi"
 We have been permitted 10 publish an extract from letter written al Vera Cruz, the 8th day ofMay, the purp0r of which took Us so completely aback that were it not for the respectable source from which It comes, one would pay little heed tn it in- deed. The letter is from an individual whose word ght challenge the belief of every man in the coun- try--not to say of the Government itself--and yet the announcement make upon iIs authority will stare all of our readers The extract IS in these words-we transcribe them literally.
 "Elliott and the Texan Commissioners about leaving this Vera Cruz1 in an English frigate for Galveston, with the treaty acknowledging the inde- pendence of Texas. But they little dream of lheir reception at Galveston. These people the Mexi. cans think that the acknowledgment of Texan inde- penience will prevent Annexation, and thereby they will get clear Of declaring war, as they had threaten ed They swear, however, that If Texas prefers Annexation 10 acknowledgment, they will declare war"
 What will aslonish the American people in this

Can it be that Capt FL liot, who Jeff Galveston with the avowed purpose of going to Charleston, $. C., has sneaked off 10 Mexi co 10 get sly advantage in negotiation which the people will bAiile should every scepire in Europe be raised in menace over theml
 Can il be true that President Jones' in the cir cumsiauces which now surround him, has had the temerily despatch secret agents 10 Mexico to form treaty in which the people of Texas are to be sacrfcedl We have seen much duplIcify and double dealing in this whole affair, and heard so much official lnendac ty in regard the purposes O men unfortunately in high places al so momentous crisis, that prepared to believe hal some of the actors in the busy before capable of doing anything however low, and asserting any thing however false; but confess that these two little 'lcna in a letter from hgb source excited our a. mazepeni.
