ANXIETY FOR THE ABSENT PACKETS There is
a great deal of anxiety now felt for the safety OF
the packet ships United States and England. They
have been at sea over two months, and sailed from
England IN time to be in the terrible gale of the
Ilth and 18th of December, which caused so much
devastation from one extremity Of the Atlantic to
the other In this gale, it will be recollected the
packet ship Dorchester was totally lost
The United States and England have valuable
cargoes on board. They had not, we are glad t.
learn, many passengers The England, we believe,
had none in her cabins In the United States, if we
mistake not, the Rev. Weir Tullocb, Scotch
clergyman, was a passenger. This person com.
mtted forgery at Perth and fled, intending to reach
America, by taking passage in the United States
This is the only passenger on board of her to our
knowledge.
These two packets were very streng ships. They
were built mere, and commanded by good and ex
perienced men, Captain Bftton, OF the United
States, is brother of the comm ander of the Gla
daor, and aIso Of the captain Of The Rochester,
WHO saved the lives of those on board the Dorche-
'er, which, singularly enough, was wrecked in the
same gale that either destroyed or badly disabled

III retirement OF Captain Waite, and better man
never walked deck.
Notwithstanding that appearances are against
them, there is yet hope, and not very weak
oue, OF seeing these packets again. They may
have become dismas.ed, and in that case could
hardly be expected TO make very rapid passage
from Longitude 20, while strong westerly winds
have been blowing

The STREETS AGAIN Fer the last ten days the
streets have been in even a worse condition thar
when pedestrians were up to their ankles in mud
The clouds Of dust, palp pabe and penetrating, have
been most disagreeable TO all who were obliged
lo.traverse the streets. The truth is, no one who
values comfort or cleanliness, and can possibly
avoid doing so. dares to venture into Broadway,
either in wet weather or dry. In wet weather it is
all mud, slush and dustin dry weather, when the
wind blows, the dust is SO thick that one cannol
see across the street. This is one oil the reforms
of the present reforming corporation.

That Mexico is at liberty"to author

arrange their differences, or lead 10 a

LATER FROM MEXICO.


The barque Anahuse, Capt. Wilson,
arrived at New York on Saturday
morning, in twenty-five days from Ve-
ra Cruz. Governor Shannon, our late
Minister to Mexico, came passenger.
Capt. Wilson, with Mir. Shannon and
his passengers and letter bag, came up,
says the Express, in the eight o'clock
boat from quarantine. The political
condition OF things was very unsettled.
1t was the general belief that there
would soon be another revolution in
Mexico. The government was very
poor; and unable to pay the army or
navy with any degree of promptness.
The general belief among all classes, IN
Mexico, was that Texas would not ac-
cept the terms offered by the Congress
of the United States, and that conse-
quently the codatry would not be an
nexed. There was very hostile feel
ing against Americans, and the people
believed that, should Texas be annex
ed, declaration of war would follow.
Mr.. Shannon represents that the
drafts on the Mexican treasury, receiv-
ed by the American agent for the I" 0
instruments due, had not been paid for
the want Of funds; James M. jorale-

A pEcJLIAR SITUATION. Mexico pla-
ces herself, says the New Orleans Cou-
rier, in curious fix by her treaty with
Jones of Texas. She has threated to
make war upon the United States for
annexation to the confederacy State
which she claims as a portion of her
own territory. But she acknowledges
the independence of that State. Be-
ing independent, one would suppose
that Texas has the right of disposing Of
herself as size thinks proper. The con-
dition attached to the acknowledge
ment is Of no validity in depriving her
Of the privileges Of independence; for
Mexico treating with Texas on an
equal footing is ipso facto an admission
that the latter is her own mistress.
