The Last Revolution In Mexico.

On Sunday, the 18th of November last. we re-
ceived a communication by telegraph from one
of our correspondents, and which we published
in our paper of that day exclusively, announcing
the important fact that dispatches had been re-
ceived from our squadron in the Gulf, to the eff.
feet that the Mexican administration had been
dissolved, and that Almonte was going to Eng
land 1t further stated, that Santa Anna was
compelled to refund the two millions Of dollars
which he had taken from the conducta, and de-
liver it to the owners, who were British mer-
chants.
This intelligence was copied from on. paper
into almost all the journals of the country South,
North, and West, with comments Of various kinds.
The Union, the official organ in name, but not in
fact, undertook to deny its authenticity, and say
that there was no foundation for it whatever
Recent events, however, have shown, that in this,
as well rs in other instances, the Herald waacor-
rect. II is now pretty web known that the admi-
nistration of that country was dissolved at the
time we mentioned the fact, and that a partial
revolution had likewise broken out. The informa-
ton was conveyed to our squadron by the officers
Of the English vessels, likewise in the Gulf, VIII
IN their turn received it from the owners of the
specie that was on its way to the capital.
We have on other occasions received importan,
information in that way-being conveyed to the
capital by those in charge of conductas, by them
communicated to the British merchants, by them
to the officers of the British vessels of war, by
them to the officers of our squadron, and by them
transmitted in the form of dispatches to our gov
eminent

LAUNCH OF SHIP SEA WTcH-NEw LINE OF
BELFAST PAcxETs.-The splendid ship Sea Witch,
whose peculiar model, and sharp bows, have for
the last few months attracted so much attention,
was launched about noon yesterday, from the
yard of Messrs. Smith IL Dmon, foot of Fourth
street.
She was built f)r Messrs Rowland & Aspm-
wall, for the Canton trade, and is to run in con-
nection with the fast sailing ship Rainbow, also
owned by the same gentlemen.
The Sea Witch is, for a vessel of her size, the
prettest vessel we have ever seen, and much re
only on a smaller scale.
She is built of the very best material, and
although presenting such light appearance, is
NEST strongly constructed. Her figure head is
intended to represent the black dragon-the
symbol Of the Chinese empire.
Captain h. II. Waterman, of the ship
Natchez, like Captain Bailey, Of the Yorkshire, is
celebrated for quick passages, is to have CON-
mand of her.
Her length is 1872 feet over all, 81 feet beam, 10
hold, and 800 tons burthen, making as fine spe-
cimen Of New York ship building as we have
seen in long time.
The new line Of packets mentioned by us few
days since, as about being formed, is, we learn,
now in operation, and is composed of the follow
ing hne substantial vessels, and commanded by
skilful and experienced navigators new ships
Gienmore, Monterey, and bark Thetis, and ano.
ther, whose name we forget. Messrs. Richard
son and Watson proprietors of the line deserve to
