The following items of Mexican news are from The
New Orleans papers of April 10.
IL appears that the Mexican government had learn
cd the final passage OF the Texas resolutions through
oolh Houses of Congress On the 2lst March the
subject was formally introduced in the Chamber Of
Deputies, and resolutions were presented. declaring
that the provisions of the treaty of 1881 are a, an end
requiring that the ports Of Mexico should be closed
against all vessels ofhe United States ;prohibitns tho
Introduction into the Republic Of the manufactures of
TINS country and stating in substance that propo-
ston for the restoration Of friendly relations between
the Two governments would be entertained except on
condition that the United States would abandon alto
gether the project of annexation.
We see no mention made of the adoption Of these
resolutions
In announcing 10 the Mexican Congress the passage
OF the measure Of Annexation Senior Cuevns took oc
casion 10 express the views ofthe administration of
Gen. Herrera. He said that the government would
at once address energetic protest to all friendly
nations, as well to the United States, against An
nexnton; that diplomatic relations with this country
would thereupon terminate. lie said the govern
ment felt itself strong enough for the emergency
without the grant Of additional powers, and trusted
that instead OFT grevious calamity, Annexation might
really prove blessing to Mexico by. uniting all her
people in determined effort to maintain their rights,
and preserve the integrity of the territory orthe Re-
public. The Presidents Of the two Chambers respon-
dcd in much the same strain.
These authentic reports put end TO the story
that the Mexican Government had sent a Message to
Texas, offering TO acknowledge the independence Of
Texns, provided that Texas would decline to be an
nexed TO the United States.
The vote by which the Mexican Grand Jury, COM
posed of the tWo branches OF Congress, found true
bill against Santa Anna, was ninety To seven. Gener-
ais Guevara and Veron the chief opponents of
the measure The public Journals load him with
continual imprecatons, and speUk Of his notes TO the
government illusions Of boundIess audacity
The New Orleans Bee says, "Tr we are to judge
of public sentiment by the tone of the press, should
conclude that the fallen Dictator is universally exc
Grated and that Mexico thrsts for his blood; and yet
strange to say, soPenly proclaimed, that his per-
son is in danger whatever"

! met once inmy girlish hours,
A creature soft and warm
Her cottage bonnet filled with flowers
Hung swinging on her arm;
Her voice was sweet as the voice Of love,
And hei teeth were pure as pearls,
While her forehead lay like snow.white dove
In anest Of nut-brown curls;
She was thing unknown to fame
Melodia was her strange sweet name.
/ never saw an eye SO bright
And yet so soft as hers:
II sometimes swan in liquid light,
And sometimes swan in tears;
Itseemed beauty set apart

But uh! Melodia's melting heart
Was softer than her eyes;
: For they were only formed to spread
Z. The softness from her spirit shed.
