Mexican Government in ainst tue United States,
I, an important fact tba cannot fail to exercise poii
cal influence on current events II shows at least that
the feeling Of hostility. which is camorous against
this country at the capital does not extend to the remote
departments The province of Yucatan has ever been
distinguished for its liberal notions. II fought against
Santa Anna and resisted the establishment Of Centrasm
successfully. And for time past, its position has
been OF almost entire independence of the General
Government The event is doubt within the recol.
lection Of our readers that during the revolution which
broke out there several ago, Yrcaan formed an
feet, under Commodore Moore, in waging upon
Mexico. The population, told, are superior as
great mass to the rest OF the Mexicans The proportion
OF whites, Of the European Spanish blood, among them
Is greater and education is more extensively diaused
The people Of that province have shown decided capa-
by for seligovernmen but their remoteness has pre-.
vented the exercise Of influence, that il exerted
might yet redeem Mexico Considering the character
and the position Of fncatan, it is not at oil surprising
that the public authorities have refused their sanction to
hostites against the United States. We should rather
expect them to favor than oppose the progress of
ncxaon The same feeling to great extent, doubt
pervaces the liberal and classes throughout
Mexico They are conscious Of the total iucoml leence
OF the Mexican rabblc to govern themselves and la.
mcnting over the certain ruin which turbulence and
anarchy are bringing their country, would gladly
welcome the extension OF American institutions and
Ioce to SEQ tho area Of freedom advancing its boun.
dary south of Tchuantepec.
