Spain.

Spanish naval force consisting of one ship Of
the line of IA guns, two large frigates, corvette
two briggs two steamships, schooners and three
barques, in all eighteen vessels, is now at Havana
1t Is the largest naval force which Spain has had
the West Indies for many years, and is the remains
of her powerful fleets Some of the journals ask
the meaning, supposing that its object is the
quest of Mexico the seizure Of Cuba, the cong est
of st. Domingo
Spain cannot conquer Mexico, and therefore will
not make the attempt She cannot furnish fnrce
enough for this purpose, for a Spanish invasion
would unite the whole Mexican nation. Will Britain
aid Spain in the re-conquest Of Mexico! Britain
would gain nothing by its RELOCATION to Spain, for the
Spanish government would regulate its commerce for
the exclusive or principal benefit of the mother
country Britain would much prefer its surrender 10
us, for such surrender would still leave IL market
for British manufactures. Indeed next TO Britain
herself. should be its best for British inter-
ests Aud considering how much more rapidly the
Old Thirteen States have increased, than the British
North American colonies, and that this increase has
been beneficial to British manufactures, may
that Mexico would be more valuable 10 Britain as
American than even as British. We may therefore
dismiss the hypothesis of Mexican re-conquest by
SPAIN with without British aid, as the object Of
this Spanish feet.
Does Spain mediate re-conquest Of St. Domingo
This is not improbable France and Spain once occu-
pied different portions of 1t together and France,
having large fleet in the West Indies, may conteu-
plate re-conquest of Hayti. Spain may have taken
the hint and have prepared for seizng her share Is
the defence of Cuba against Britain the object !
Britain has long tcled to seize that valuable colony
Britain and Spain not the best friends in the world
the Spaards having refused 10 make Methuer
treaty" with the British, and to prevent it, having
expelled Espartero, their tool for that purposes the
French nation viii wage war against Britain upon
the death of Louis Philippe, and the British would
make such war pretext for ro5bing Spain Of Cuba
Spain all this, and therefore ready 10 defend it
Spain knows that she cannot reconquer Mexico, ant
that the attempt might embrol her with She ha.
no interest in quarreling with u.s. her guarantor o.

MExIco.-The Union says that letters have been
received at Washington from the city Of Mexico, to
the 18th of January, at which time, Mr. Slidel was
in the city, but was expected to arrive at Jaapa on
the nth. He had obtained an escort TO that place.
Not the slightest insult had been offered to him, as
has been reported but he had been received with
much courtesy, and welcomed in the society of the
metropolis He had not yet been received by the
government in his official capacty-nether had they
declined his reception; and in fact judging by ap-
pearances, there was reason to believe that he
would not be as acceptable TO the government Of
Paroles to that of Herrara. Rumors and specuia-
tions were still afloat about calling an European
prince the throne of Mexico, and supporting him
by the aid of French and British soldiers. 1t was
SAID and believed, in Mexico, that Gen. Arista had
published PronUHciamenio against Paredcs, and that
he was in San Louis de PotOs, or on the advance TO
that place. the head of O0OO troops, his march
