ANNALS OF VERMoNT.-We invite particular
attention to the advertisement of the old Anti
quarian, HENRY STEVENS, in this paper. Among
his collection are important and highly interes-
ting documents, which never have been publish
ed and yet without them the history of our State
is incomplete and unsatisfactory. The Stale
ought to purchase and publish these documents,
for they are, most Of them, official and properly
State papers; but in default of this, we trust the
proposition to publish by subscription will sue
coed

FROM MEXICO.

The New York papers by overland express and
Telegraph from New Orleans, have dates to the
18th June from the city of Mexico, as published
In Plcayune Extra Of the l2th.
The government paper publishes communi-
cation from the Minister of Foreign Affairs, ad-
dressed TO the members of the Mexican Congress
referring them to despatch from Secretary Bu-
chanan informing them of the appointment OF
MIR. Trst. Mr.. Buchanan's letter is dated A prll
18th. 1t acknowledges the receipt of the Mexi-
can Minister'S letter ofths Dad February, declin-
| ing TO accede TO our proposition to send commits
sioners to Jalapa, Havana, or any other point be.
fore the blockade the Mexican ports should be
raised and the Mexican territory evacuated by
our troops.
Mr.. Buchanan writes that the President holds
such conditions absolutely inadmlssible, neither
demanded by national honor, nor sanctioned by
the practice Of nations. lie urges that such pre-
liminary conditions would render war intermina-
BILE, especially between contiguous nations, I'M
| less by The complete submission of one of the
| belllgerents.
| lie cites the case Of our own country in the
last war, as sending commissioners to Client
while British troops were on our soil. Mr.. Blu
chanan tells the old story that the President wish
ed to avoid the war, and sent Minister to nego-
tate peace after the war commenced, and adds
"1here will never be termination of HOSTILE
ties, if Mexico refuses to listen 10 overtures which
have been prohered, and which tend to the re-
establishment of Peace. The President will not
therefore, make further oyertures for the opening
| of negotiations until he has reason to believe
that such will be accepted by the Mexican SOW
ernment."
Nevertheless, he says, such is the desire ofthe
President for peace, he has sent Mr.. Trst, who
is in his full confidence, in capacity of commits
sioner with full powers to conclude definitlve
treaty.
There had been no quorum of the Congress
up TO the 29th.
1t is said General Scott gave the Government
to The 30th ult, TO act upou the proposition, when
he intended to march upon the capital.

Important from California.

A letter from Washington in The Journal Of
Commerce, says
There Is letter IN the city, received by the
Western mail, with the startling intelligence that
the Mormon regiment and the Mormon settlers,
in California, have risen and rebelled against the
American government as established there, taken
possession OF the county, and established gov.
ernment of their own.
There may be some foundation for the rulnor.
The Mormons PRIOR to The origin of the Mexican
war, had designed to establish an empire in Cal
lorna, and had taken some steps towards the en-
terprlse.

CHILD LOST IN THE WooDs.--On the l9.h
inst son Of Mr.. Ira Wheeler, of North Fays-
ton, aged five years and hall, returning from
school, wandered into the woods. The alarm
was spread, and a search was commenced, and
was continued through the night and succeeding
day without success. On the morning of the
second day several hundreds assembled from
Fayslon and the adjoining towns, and leaders
were appointed to every twenty men who should
volunteer to search until the child was found
and it was unanimously Resolved, They would
use the same vigilance and care as if the lost
one were their own son or brother" The thirG
day the number had increased to nearly one
thousand The search continued until about
o'clock, when the main body of the citizens had
reached the highlands in Duxbury, some three
miles southeast from Cancels Hump. In addition
to the heat and fatigue of the day heavy fall
of rain now set in 1t was here party from
Duxbury discovered the child. He appeared in
good health, and, apparently, his sufferngs had
been less severe than was anticipated. z. W. b.

SIIGAR-

In another article we have already remarked
generally, upon the Tariff Of 1876: there is
particular feature, however, which calls 70
the notice of the sugar makers of Vermont
The following statement from Samuel Boyd, Esq
weigher in the New Orleans Custom-house
shows the astonishing fact that the importation
Of foreign sugar into New-Oreans, since the
first of December last, has increased SEVEN
HUNDRED AND FIFTY PER CENT IL
Instead of two millions of pounds IN 49, we have
now over sixteen millions.
From the New-orlouns Weekly National June %.

1t will be seen that the increase in the reye.
nue., with an aggregate increase of over rs mil
lions in commerce, is less than halfa million
over last year, and that this has been produced
by an increased consumption of foreign goods to
an amount of nearly SEVEN MILLIONS OF
DOLLARS in seven monhs-thus:

exclusive OF specie, $47,84l ,575

Increased consumption of for. goods $6,93O,3O
For every additional million of revenue under
TINS act we are therefore to buy FOURTEEN
MILLIONS of dollars worth of foreign goods |!
"a fact which pretty fully demonstrates the
objections which we made to the system of last
August, and on the strength of which, we called
TIA BRITISH TARIFF.
But it will be urged by free trade men that
the increase in the exports is to be received in
offset. Well--the increase in exports of do
