our Government and Santa Anna had consPr-
oil together to establish the latter in kind OF
life dictatorship; also to get Ampuda and 9TH

and the number of Mexican troops reduced
within manageable bounds; and finally, upon
the death of Santa Anna, to "annex" the dit
fereRt Mexican States to the contederacy of the
'S,ars and Stripes" lie has wisely determin-
ell that it is not necessary to add any more oil

intrigue.
FRONT STREET THEATRE. We visited this
theatre last evening, to witness the performan-
ces of the celebrated Gravel Family" The
praise of the "press" of other cities, had led us
to expect rich treat, yet their encomiums fell
far short of the qualification we realized from
their truly delightful exhibitions. Where all
are so meritorous it is hard to partcularize,
but we must be allowed to speak of the dancing
of Mad. Leon Javelli, which was the admira-
ton of the whole audience, and from the APP
plause she received showed she was an artistic
of no medium order. Gabriel Ravel in his feats
and tricks is certainly astonishing, and far sur
passes any one we have ever Scent his line
Gle Petit Amour" and others on the tight rope
are well deserving Of praise. AS this is the
last night of their engagement, no one who has
not yet seen them should let the opportunity
pass.
TIE "WEsTERN CONTINENT" We have ne
elected to notice the association Of William Fl.
Carpenter, Esq, in theeditorial department, in
connexion with VIM. T. Thompson, Esq, of
the "Western Continent" MIR. Carpenter is
we'll known as writer of eminence and abili-
ty, whose productions have been read with avn
dity in the various popular periodicals of the
country, and his association in the editorial de-
parlment of this excellent paper cannot but add
to its already large and increasing popularity.
We arc pleased to learn that the "Continent"
is rapidly extending its circulation, receiving
that support which its character, and the abIi-
ty with which it has been conducted, entities
it to; and with two such popular and interest
ing writer's as Messrs Thompson and Carpen-
ter, it cannot fail becoming still more accepta-
BILE TO a discerning public, Its columns are
filled with variety of excellent and interest
ing matter, making it acceptable to all classes.

The GALE OF TUESDAY. The gale of Tues
day was the most violent one which has recent
ly been experienced. 1t seems to have been
wide spread and every where destructive. The
Boston papers are full Of the details of the mis-
chief which was done in that city among the
shipping, and to buildings. Several houses in
Boston, and barns and out-buildings in the vi
cinty were blown down. Ono length of the
railroad bridge over the Connecticut river, near
Windsor, Conn.,, was blown down. A building
just finished, was blown down at Great Falls,
N. H. The gale was severe at Portland. The
Boston papers fear that there were serious dis
asters IN the bay. Some fears are expressed for
the safety of the New World, which sailed on
Monday afternoon for New York. She had
only about four hundred tons gravel ballast in
her bottom.
