We are happy to inform he public that four of the
five mails due from New Orleans, reached this city
yesterday afternoon. They contained some highly
important intelligence from Mexico
The advlces from Vera Cruz are to the 18th ult.
Our relations with Mexico appear to be rapidly
approaching crisis. The Hon. Mr.. Slidell had
made peremptory demand upon the Mexican GO
vernment to either be received at once as the Anne
rican Minister, or to have his passports forwarded
to him.
This movement had created considerable excite
ment in Mexico.
1t was uncertain what the Mexican government
would do. 1t was reported, however, that Mr. Sill
dell would be received as an Envoy to arrange the
Texas matter, but in no other capacity.
The advices are 30 confused that 1t Is difficult to
form any correct opinion of the real state Of our re-
lations with Mexico. We, therefore, give the INTEL
gence asst appears in the various New Orleans pa
pers-each It's own story.
But apart from the news relative to the move
ments Of our Minister the intelligence from the city
Of Mexico is important
ut appears from the accounts that the effort to e.
tablish monarchy in that country, daily finds more
favor.
