summary of Mexican News.

Recent arrivals from Mexico have made
some startling developments.
The facts show that President Jones, Of
Texas, has made overtures to Mexico for
the recognition of Texan independence.-
The overtures have been favorably enter
tanned and resolution of the Chamber of
Deputies has authorised the Executive Of
Mexico 60 open negotiations with Texas for
this purpose.
Captain Elliott, the British Minister, who
left Galveston some weeks ago under pre-
tence of going TO Charleston, has all this
time been in Mexico, and has just taken his
departure with the Texan Commissioners
appointed by President Jones to negotiate
on this secret mission. They have doubt
less received the terms from Mexico and are
now Fastening home TO Jones 10 make the
other steps in the conspiracy
There can be only Two constructions put
upon this juggling and lodging, and secret
manoeVering Jones IS either traitor to
annexation, and busily engaged with Elliott
in conspiracy to defeat il by getting Mex
leo to ralify Texan independence, which il
is pretty generally understood she will not
do, except on condition that Texas shall
stipulate to reject annexaton; or his object
is to get Mexico into such position that
she can cecede from her present attitude
on the subject and avoid war with the
United States if annexation is consummat-
ed. This latter and more charitable con-
struction is the one we hope is correct;
though we confess that the CO operation Of
Elliott in the business goes far to show that
no good can be intended Whatever though,
may be the des' 'gn, we are convinced that
annexation will not be defeated
Santa Anna and Canalizo have been given
their liberty on condition that they leave
the country for 10 years.
No war has been declared by Mexico, MOI
! Of course will be while this new scheme OF
hone fug!ery is pending, if ever.
