VERY LATE From MExico.-We learn that the
Juniata arrived at Havana on the I'D ui, from
Vera Cruz, whence she sailed on the 10TH
This arrival has placed us In possession of facts
confirming the intelligence we published yesterday,
relative to the probable settlement Of our Mexican
difficulties. II is said that there has been great
change in the public feeling OF Mexico towards the
United States, and that Paredes has intlmated TO
Mr. Slidell that he may yet be received as American
minister.
The probability is that our difficulties with Mex
leo could be satisfactorily settled, on the basis Of
million Of dollars or Whereabouts.

SHUSrrKEs great object Of the day, as citi-
zens Of New York, is to secure a railway TO our
political capital and Western customers, at ell
seasons. That railway, direct to Boston, is desira-
BILE, we admit; equally SO a connection with the
Housatonic Railway; but until our Legislature se-
cures road 10 Albany, we would ask them to pause
on all side cuts

MORE ESrERrRIsrSG PiLoTs We received, at
an early hour yesterday morning, by Harnden &
Co, a London Chronicle Of the 4th ult., which was
obtained from the packet ship Yorkshire, by the
splendid pilot boat Isaiah Sturges OF Holmes Hole
This fine pIloteer boarded the Yorkshire on Tues
day neon, about one hundred miles west ,f Sandy
Hook, obtained two OF the latest English papers,
and run TO Stonington. Thence one OF these papers
was forwarded to us and the other TO Boston. We
received ours before o'clock yesterday morning,
and we return our thanks to the pilots OF the Isaiah
Sturges for their kindness, and to Harnden & Co.,
for Its early delivery at our office.
BATTLE OF THE GRAD Es.-We hsye had the report
OF the British Parliament on the "War of the
Gauges" In this country, we believe, our eng;-
among the fret to take ground that, prac-
tically, rice Of twenty.one feet to the mile, was
not equal 10 one mile in distance. FIVE recolect
Edwin + Johnson, g. + came out this subject
II 1913, if not at prior PERIOD. Much stress is
pla ed on the levels OF the rver route. Maps and
proes have been circulated by the advocates Of this
measure. IL il not sll-imporaui tina, we have
more light on this subjectf

SHir ST.. PATRrcK.-This ship received pilot on
Tuesday morning at 1OA. M, and was at that time
about SO miles southeast from the Hook. We give
the following extract from her log book =" Made
the Highland lights at p. M, Tuesday night,
(civil time)-weather thick and rainy; A. NJ,
Highland lights still in sight; IA. NJ, wore to the
eastward, in consequence Of the weather continuing
thick and rainy" Therefore, the inference drawn
against this ship, in paper yesterday, was moor
rect; her arrival into port was prevented by the
thick weather. The Henry Clay went ashore on
Squan Beach about IL o'clock on Tuesday night,
(ciyil time) II will be remembered

GREAT BRITAIN COMING DOwN.-lt
seems after all that Great Britain has come
down at last: Resd the following.
"One Ofthe b-hoys," on the day Of the
late celebration of the glorious fourth, des-
canting upon the final settlement Of the
Oregon question, seriously took the position
that the treaty was concession on the part
of Great Britain unparalleled in her his
tory.
"How do you make that QUIT" said his
companion, with BOwery shake Of the
head.
SNAKE it out May | never kill for
Keyser, sing Hail COlumby, or give three
hundred and sixty five cheers for the Star
Sprangled Banner, ifyou amt thick head
ed customer. Didn't we offer the bloody
British as far up as 81 deg. and 40 min,
and didn't. they come dOscn to 40 min. ?
They didn't do nothin' else"

INFLUENCE OF THE PRESS.

In no country is the influence of the
press more widely felt than in the United
States, where its full liberty is guaranteed
by the constitution, and papers devoted to
politics, religion in all its shades, literature
and morals, are to be found in almost every
town throughout the land. Newspaper
under this title we include papers of all
sorts--are mole generally read than any
other productions of the press, and hence
their influence for veal or woe.
AS, from the nature of our government,
almost every man is a politician that is,
attached to one or the other of the parties
that spring up, or change names to suit the
temper of the times political papers greatly
predominant, and from them the people
gather their opinions Of public men and
public measures. Whatever may be said
to the contrary, the editors Of political pa
pers. in no uncomfortable degree, form
public opinion upon all the great and eX-
citing topics which, from time to time, agi-
tate the nation; they may be said even to
think for large portion of their readers
because they are supposed to have carefully
investigated the various subjects upon which
they write.
Thus, it will be readily seen how imPor-
tant II is that the editor Of a paper-a polit-
ical paper OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES be well in
formed on all subjects which he ventures TO
discuss, and how important it is, that be-
fore giving his opinions to the public they
should be well considered. The people
when properly informed viii do right but
without impeaching their general intelli.
qence. they are liable to be led astray, and
mistake the good for the bad.
The great fault Of all papers exclusively
devoted 10 the interest Of political parties
Is. that in their too great devotion to panty,
thew forget the higher interests Of theirco
try. and hence they often become entang-
led IN embarassments, from which they
find Il difficult to disengage themselves. A
press truly independent, that would express
he oDinions on great questions Of national
noliev without regard to their bearing upon
hearty interests would be blessing to the
eo1niry-the people would be able % Judge
more correctly, and its effects would be
widely felt 10 its influence upon our tree IN
stihHions.-Nash. 0EthCpOtitqn.
