 On fhe aay prior to the sailing of the Watel Witch. the British man-of-war Enydice set sai for Galveston, with despatches just received iron the ely of Mexico, for the British Minister ir Tex.s. The purport pf fha documents had mol trnnsniFed hut it was rumored, and generally cred iEed. fbat fhev contained a complete recognition
 u, ne part of Mexico of the independence oi Term, s.pcn As condition that she rejected the uroposed Annexation to the United States.
 Owing to the lateness of the hour at which the Wager Witch arrived, we have not vet received our correspondence by her, or been able to examine win ninuteness our files.
 Santa Ana still remained prisoner at the Castle of Perote. We find hts written defence in the pa pers which we have rereived. but t tfhrowslitfle light upon the transactions of the revolution. He endeayors to throw upon others the responsibility of all the most fragrant acts which provoked the insnrrcction.
 The difficulty with the prosecuting officers ap- pears s0 be under what character to proceed against him, he having acted under the orders of Canalizo during the critical events of the reyolu- ton as d simple General 0f Division.
 The Mexican Government had received Intelli- gence otthe passage of the Annexation resolutions 9by both Houses of Congress, but they had no ofI- cai notice that President Tyler had given his as sent to them. However, they entertained little doubt of their receiving his approval. Our fiies from the capital are not so late as dusbu we tn- fer that the Government was really iu possession of The latest intelligence and that the departure of the British vessel of war for Galveston was copse- qaent upon the information.
 On the 2ist of March, the Chamberof Deputies took into consideration the subject of the Annexa- tion of Texas. Resolutions were introduced, and warmly supported for dccaFing the provisions Of the Treaty of 1891 (rati6ed in lS32l al al end for closing tfe ports of Mexico against all vessels of the United States, and prohibiting the introduction ofour manufactures; and, finally. thai no propssi- ton from our Government for the restoration of friendly relations should be listened to, save upon the condition that the United States should re- nounce altogether the plan of Annexation.
 The Government was making vigorous and com mendable exertions to assist the inhabitants of the Northern Provinces to repel the aggresslons of the savages. The attention of liberal minded men in Mexico appears 10 be fixed almost exclusively upon re- form of the Constitutional Buses of Tucabava -- They wish to limit in some manner the powers oi the Executive.
 There were several shocks of an earthquake felt in oajaca lon the 10th uit h Many persons were killed, and scarcely house was let uniniured ,- Thefe was the greatest constefnation among the inhahitants lest the city should beFuined. & We mentioned yesterday that Santa Ana was struegling rather to save his money than his iife.

 By the steamship Marnora, arrived yesterday. says the New Orleans Pcavune of the Sth April, we have Texas files to the 2nd inst the day of her de- parture. The papers are mostly taken up ia dis cussing the Annexation resolutions
 V Were we to infer the opinions If the people from the tone of the press, we should think the Texans aiearly unanimous in favor of coming into the Con- federacy on the terms proposed. We have seen nothing further touching the views of President Jones and his Cabinet in regard to the measure. powerful appeal in favor n Annexation has been ad dressed to the people by committee appointed by the citizens of Galveston. sss gss ststksf k Major Donelson, U. SA Charge to Texas, arrived at Galveston on the 27th uItmo. and proceeded im- naediateiy to the seat of government.
 At the date of our last advices from Galveston, British sesssl of var had just reached that city with espaiches for Capt.
