Correspondence ofthe N. o. Bee. LATER FROM MEXICO.

PENSACOLA, Sept. Ist, 1S45.
 Messrs. Editors.-The U. 5. sloop ofwar Sara oga arrived here at late hour yesterday in fifteen days from Vera Cruz, where she remained nearly week anchor-salutes were exchanged with the authorities al that place.
 The only news which have been enabled 10 glean is, that Gen. Herrera has been elected President cabinet has been organised with Gen. AL monte, late Minister to the United States as I un derstand at it's head Congress has adjourned with out making formal declaration of against this country. Resolutions however adopted, 10 borrow fifteen millions of dollars for the purpose of carrying the war for the re conquest of Texas It IS also among the "on dts" that Il large number of troops from the interior marching 10 the banks of the Rio Grande-the old story,
 ]. is sincerely hoped that the Government of Mex co will not be mad enough 10 invade Texas, 10 declare against the Umied States; for if they had neither the courage nor the means to recover lost province, during period of ten years, they can hope for little m struggle with country of twenty millions of people, and with exhaustless re- sources.
 The men who direct the public affairs of Mexlco, beray an extent of folly, not to be expected even from unfedged statesmen.
 They should remember lthat the Governments of Europe and of the United States, have long since acknowledged the independence ofTexas-nay, that Mexico herself has (conditionally) offered recog nise it. Texas therefore, by the laws of nations, has clear right to institute her government and aws or dispose of herself in any way she might
  ago, throw of her allegiance to the king of Spain. But must not disturb Vattel, or writers of his dis cription.
 Mexico with all her undeveoped wealth, is now dra ming lhe last drops of poyerly's bitter cup She IS already indebted more than sixty millions of dol lars Great Britain; and for lhIs sum that country has cast longing, lingering look on the Caiornias, Under these circumstances, if Mexico be caioled to plunge still deeper in the mire of indebtedness, sine will not only lose the Calfornias, but her den lty as people, and a nation. "A word to the wise is sufficient"
 Nothing can evince more clearly the great neces- sity for Dry Dock at this place, than the delay and difficulty in the repairs of the 'Potomac,' which under favorable circumstances might have been com pleted m a few days. More of this hereafter Wis dom even in oar climate, is plant of slow growth.
 Some one writing for the Mobile Herald and Tribune.' from the Pensacola Navy Yard, abuses Commodore ConnOr, for remaining SC long m port, and for preventing the CommandAnt of the yard from firing evening gun, Mc. &c.
 The delay has not been caused by Commoredore Conner and for untiring exertons to stop danger ous leak in large skip, wthsut the convenience of Dry Dock, he deserves unbounded praise--not censure. The remaining vessels of the squadron are ready for sea, but he will only send them, when in his judgment it is necessary; regardless of rid- cuIe and sneers, from the buffoons and sycophans of others. r lo
 It is fortunate that Commodore Conner has the chief command of our naval forces m the Gulf of Mexico at this time- he is brave, cool, and expe renced and with gallant officers, and efficient crews, he will effect all that frmness and judicous course can achieve for the honor and interests Of the coun- try.
