The veto of Gov. WRIGHT, of New York, on the canaI bills, which passed the late legislature, and his signature to The convention bill are pro durng consid,raL e excitement in New-York.- They wiI probably bring {, issue the con 1icls within the democratic pnty of that State, which hay given rise the ep Lets of the 'od hun CTS" and the ''harn burne:s,' as ap- piled to different positions O. the party. The Gold hIakers" so called the 'conseryal ye' puiton of tue ptrly who accused oI being favor of banks liberal appropriations for internal improvenen,s
 'nd consequently, if not in iv,r ofa pabc debt a,
 'sl indlspoed 10 very TIE i'd nn,ie for it's early liligui hment. The 'barn burners" are tn radical porii In, who go against any further expenditures on public improvements until he public debt is paid or largely reduced-who opposed 10 bank charters, who deslre ihe constitution amended so as to pro. hbt any loan by the State, except atera vote of the people, and who in general for stficest c1nsti- ''""n '''n'Is upon legislative power, m r aIion 10 de'' and expenditures. Tue Governor is one of the latter ca7s-a radical of the .barn burners" clsss, 'h forN paIance, and of coprse, in these Stale questions the antagonist of Gold hunkersm."

The summary which we copy from Saturday Pic ayune, of he latest Mexican accounts W i'll be fouud 10 be vt'y nt resting. The de,enpemenls of Brl
