FROM MEXICO.

The New Orleans Bulletin has papers from the
City of Mexico to the 9th ultimo, and from Vera
Cruz to the 30th. The City of Mexico quiet,
and every thing proceeding in its usual manner.
On the morning of the 18th utimo, the cannons
announced TO the inhabitants the raising of the state
of siege to which they had been subjected during
the late troubles.
SANTA ANNA still remains in the Castle OF Perote,
subject to the rigid surveillance. 1t has been
decided to try him for malpractces in his late ca
pacity of Commander-in-C Chief, or President, and
not as a traitor, which indicates that some mlder
course will be pursued towards him than what had
been predicted from the fury of the people generally.
This clemency appears to have emanated from the
two Chambers of Congress, according to the Cour
| rier Francois of the 18th utimo,) which paper
gives beautiful speech from Senior PEDRAzA, be-
fore that body, on the occasion of the mission OF
Gen. HARD TAMAREz, who it viii be remembered,
was deputed by SANTA ANNA to request a safe pass
port from the Government The more violent por-
ton of the Chamber wished to seize the General,
who bore flag of truce, but which course was frus-
trated alone by this speech, and doubtless has in
huenced the subsequent action of Government.
The Government has decided TO try by court
martial all the officers who obeyed the orders of
SANTA ANNA after the election of Gen. HARRERA as
President of the Republic. They have already
been displaced from their command
The effects belonging TO SANTA ANNA, at his re-
sidence of Manga de Clavo have been seized by the
authorities of the department of Vera Cruz, and
moved to that city for sale.

THE OREGON NEGOTIATION.

The following information, copied from the New
York Courier and Enquirer of Thursday last is
highly interesting at the present uncture in public
affairs
We referred yesterday to the favorable account
: given in recent message of the President of the
. amicable spirit in which this negotiation has been
8 conducted.
"Since then we learn, upon authority entitled to
the most implicit reliance, that, in the event of
failure on the part of the negotiators at Washing
ton to agree upon the respective rights OF the par
9 ties, the British Government have suggested the
reference of the whole question TO the arbitration
Z of any European Sovereign 10 be designated by
: the Government Of the Uaifed States, agreeing
: to abide by his award.
" With such an offer this nation must close, IN
less we be prepared to assert EXTREMIST claims
at every hazard, without regard to the claims OF
! others, and in utter contempt of the moral sense
of the world.

SATURDAY, MARCH /, ls45.
CONGRESS.

The reader viii learn, from the statement of the
Senate's proceedings of Thursday, that the Joint
Resolution of the House of Representatives for the
admission of Texas into the Union, having acquir-
ed the support Of Mr.. BENTON and others by in
cooperating his last project alternative to the
provision OF the House resolution, has passed the
Senate by majority of two.votes; in effect by one
vote, as a change Of one vote would have reversed
the decision, by producing an equality of votes.
The proceedings Of Congress Yesterday though
very limited in the number of subjects disposed of
were, in some respects, of the highest importance.
Not having space for detailed account Of the trans
actions of the day, we subon summary statement
In the SENATE, after rejecting motion to post
pone the previous orders and proceed to consider
the bills for the admission of the Territories of Ioioa
and Florida States of the Union, the bill Of the
other House making appropriations for the civil and
diplomatic service of the Government taken up,
and the Senate spent the remainder of the day s
sitting, until five o'clock, in discussing new items Of
appropriation, or changes OF pre-exisng ones, pro-
posed by the Committee on Finance or moved by
individual members. Among the numerous amend
for Minister Plenipotentiary to Austria to the sum
required only to maintain Charge d'Afaires an
other was the reduction of the appropriation for
outfit and salary for Minister to China to the sum
of $4,000 for g Commissioner to reside in China
and another was inserting an appropriation OF
$275,000 to pay the April and July instalments OF
the Mexican indemnity due in 1914, provided it
La
been las was asserted in debate) paid by the Mexi-
can Government to the agent appointed by the Gov
eminent of the United States to receive them.
In the HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES the first
transaction of importance was the passage and
transmission to the Senate of the Hdrbor and
RiUer bill, making appropriations of some two
millions of dollars for various objects Of internal
Improvement. Then came up, in course, the
report of committee on the Dorr rebellion, and
the delivery of two speeches on the subject,
when the hour allotted to reports expired. Mo-
tons were then successfully made to take up
up the Army and Navy appropriation bills but the
majority resisted these motions, and insisted on
first clearing the Speakers table," on which lay
| the Senates amendment to the Resolution for the
| annexation Of Texas. Accordingly, that subjec
was soon reached, and the House having adopted
an order virtually prohibiting debate, the amend
ment Of the Senate was forced through Commit
tee of the Whole House, Careful to observe til
/ forms of the Constitution in small matters,) ant
was then concurred in by vote of 1872 t
to rs. The House then took up the Navy appro
priation bill, and at o'clock 1.-THE latest period
which we heard from it was quietly going throug
its details.
Weekly national intelligencer. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1841-1869, 1845-03-01

i Our readers viii perceive, by the above notice o
yesterdays transactions in Congress, that the Reso-
luton for the annexation of Texas to these United
States has passed both Houses, and that nothing
now but the veto of the President prevent its
becoming the law of the land. Notwithstanding,
however, his hailing from the school of strict
structionists, and his remarkable course in regard
to other measures, approved Of at one time and We
toed at another, we do not pretend to anticipate
that the President will negative this joint resolution
utterly repugnant though it be, both in its object
and in the mode of effectng it, to the Constitution
of the country. We must regard it therefore as
having received all the sanctions of law, and SUBJ
nit to it with the best grace that we may. Depre-
eating the measure from the first as deeply preud-
cal to the highest interests of the country as well
as at variance with the Constitution itself, we have
exered the utmost of our humble ability to avert its
consummation. Our own efforts, and those of much
ADLER and wiser men, having failed to arrest an act
which few years ago any man would have been
deemed insane who had seriously proposed it.
we must bow to the will Of the majority. We
could have wished, indeed, that decision preg-
nant with consequences vast, and so deeply af-
feeling the destnies of the country, had not depend
ed on one man, and been carried by single vote. |
Had itreceived more emphatic approval, we could
have been better reconciled to its passage.

Candless, esq, Of Pittsburgh.
This work contains the best productions Of Eng
llsh law authors without regard to priority Of claim
ON the part Of any American publisher. Such books
are now VIGOROUSLY too dear The reason is that
rs fast as they appear, they become monopolies in
the hands Of booksellers in the Atlantic cities I'M
der the plea Of right, acquired by the addition Of
notes Of American decisions, the latter claim an un
divided title to those works, and set burdensome
price on them. The publishers Of the work now
offered 10 the profession throughout the Union, will
not respect such titles, but will reprint the standard
British law books as fast as they cmanate from the
London market. Should new editions Of the works
Of such writer's as StaIkie, the Chttys, Stephen,
and Archbod, appear, they shall also be included;
and diges,s of equity and law decisions-works
which have been studously kept out Of the Law
