LATER FROM MEXICO AND CnrNA-.4rriual
Of Mr.. Cushing-Do,ontaH Of Santa .Gnna, SC.
The Hon. Caleb Cushing, late Envoy Extraor-
binary to China, arrived at N. York on Tues
day morning from Vera Cruz, in the bark Eu-
genia. BY him, says the Journal of Com
merce, we have important news from Mexico
and 26 days later from China. Mr.. Gushing
while in Mexico was robbed of all his papers,
except those about his person, among which
were fortunately his official dispatches.
Mexico has again been the seat of another
evolution-bloodless, however. Santa Anna
had been proclaimed Dictator, and all seemed
to go on well, but about midday the troops bar
racked in the Accordada Saint Francis, and
the citadel pronounced against Santa Anna aud
Canalizo; at the head of the movement was
General Don Jose J. Herrera, President of the
Council, who addressed proclamation to the
city, calling on it to sustain him. The whole
Congress Immediately threw itself into the
arms of Herrera, who Immediately took pos
session Of the National palace without blood
shed. The Congress constituted its sessions
permanent. The Ex-Ministers fled. Canalizo
is in arrest at his own house.
An attempt was made to destroy the statue
OF Santa Anna in the vestibule of the theatre,
and the people wished TO break the bronze one
III the market place, but were prevented by the
authorities. On the next night General II err
rera had it privately removed. The new au.
thorties maintained perfect quiet The Cham
bers were occupied in devising means to rem
edy the incalculable injury the country has
suffered.
The principal towns and indeed all the coun-
try, have pronounced against Santa Anna.
