LATER FROM MEXICO.

.
BY The arrival yesterday Of the schouner Yuokaana
from Vera Cruz. have received full files Of papers of
the 2lsl from that city, and the l7lh from the city OF
Mexico.
Cen'l. hlmon,e had arrived a Vera Cruz. but had
not gone on In the Capital whom the Nuckalaua left.
There were at Ntm Cruz four American, two Span
lsh. one English. and one French men ,i war.
The ioint committee Of the Mexican Congress to
which had been referred the subject OF Texas reported
at lcnath N The IN inst. The report s document
marked with the usual characteristics of Mexican
hnsty rrollNty and bnmhast. II abuses the L. States
in ch9lce Casllan and calls many hard names com
pairing the Government at Washington 10 ancient Rome
which IN the nnmo Of Liberty and Republicansm, sub
Jugalod the world. Aoor many brave words about
outraged rights, honor, Mexican courage and the like,
HE report concludes by recommending two projects
The first Is preceded by preamble declaring that,
whereas the United States may have resolved 10 annex
the territory o Texas, and, whereas such mode Of ap.
propsilng foreign territory TO which other nations lay
clalm lnohslrous innovation upon the peace of the
world and the sovereignty of oher powers and where-
as This act had long been IN preparation while the
United States were protesting peace and friendship for
Mexico, and while the latter respected and observed
scropuousy the terms OF existing treaties between the
two countries and whereas. the said annexation Is
violation uf every conservative principle OF society,
assault upon the rights of Mexico an insult 10 her dir
nifty sovereign naton, and her Independence
and political existence; therefore, the Congress of the
Mexican Republic splemny declare that the law of the
niied STATES for the annexation of Texas 10 tho Amer
lean Union, IN no respect the impars the rights which
Me.ieo possesses aud will maintain to that depart
tnent.
Furthermore thai the United States, having disre.
garded the principles upon which based ireaties of
unity, commerce and navigation. and especially Of
boundary. Congress considers them violated by the u
nl,cd States.
And finally. that hs Unjust usurpaiion Of which il
is sought TO make Mexico the victim, makes ii her du.
~ To take arms in her defence oppose usurpation
and with the full and rghltul determination to nse all
hei r'sonTces aud power to prevent the xaon de-
creed by the United States.
The second consists of four articles, which are as
follow:
First-The Mexican nation calls upon her sons Ia de
frnd their national Independence threatened by the.
surpaon ol the territory Of Texas, which is sought 10

maintenance OF her institutions, and if necessary as
reserve for the army. the Government IN virtue of the
power granted 10 II on the 9Th of December 1874 may
