Gen. Santa Ana, lady and family, who were ban

Every thing that has any tendency
to throw light on our relations with
Mexico is interesting a. the present
time. The last Washington Union con-
tains the follcwng:- :
Surprising tina, these statements were
correct, or nearly so, what are we to
infer! That, in the presen. unsettled
state Of our relations with Mexico
whilst rumors of her troops advancing
to the frontier are floating on every
breeze-it is natural to suppose tina, the
administration would take measures to
guard against any possible contingency.
These arrangements may no, be requir-
ed. The Mexican troops may not march
10 the frontier. Theft movements to.
wards that direction may be dictated
more by political considerations. affect.
ing the election of their own President,
or the clamors of their own people, than
by any serious design of crossing the
Rio Grande. Ii does not follow, there.
fore, as the Washington correspondent
OF the New York Courier surmises, that
the administra,ion''expect declaration
OF war and active hostili,ies. Such
an event may indeed. take place. Amid
the unstable councils of Mexico, which
are more or less subjec! to The influence
OF turbulent and excited people. we
scarcely know what 10 expect. But,

Sheriff Killed.

The anti-rent difficulties in New
York have arrived at fearful cri.
sis. Recently as deputy Sheriff 0.
N. Steele, Of Delaware county, was at
tempting to sell some property that had
been levied on by virtue of distress
warrant. he was resisted. Not being
able to obtain bidders and in conse.
qnence of various threats, he postponed
the sale until Thursday. On Thursday
another trial was made. There were
about $50" lndians" on the ground and
as the Sheriff was attempting to remove
the goods, the "chief" of these mock
"lndians" gave the word to fire. A,
the first volley constable Edgerton's
horse was shot in the breast, and at the
second, Deputy Sheriff Steele fell. NOR.
tally wounded. His horse was also
shot and died in a few minutes. Grea,
excitement existed in that whole region
of country a, last dates. More than a
thousand persons attended the funeral
of Steele. The Sheriff has called out
500 men. Three or four of the "Indi.
ans" have been arrested, and it is hop-
ed that this last outrage may lead the
Governor to take some decisive stems
IN putting stop to these disturbances.
Tennessee will be represented in Con-
gress the same as at the last session,by
