WASHINGTON. Feb. Q.

WASHINGTON, eb. y.
We have received highly important news in
a Picayune Extra, under date Of Feb. 2.
From Anton Lazardo, Goth ul;. letters state
that the Mexican Congress on the OH. after a
stormy session. approved the LIST section of the
bill authorizing government to raise fifteen
millions of dollars by bypoIhecation or sale of
certain goods Of the Church. Santa Anna
opposed sternly this measure, and it is ru-
mored that the opposition So cxaspcrated his
soldiers. that they had sho, him. This re-
port requires confirmation but MANY cir
cumstances render il not improbable. The
Amy is in great distress.
The passage OF the law created the great
est excitement in the city of Mexico. The
Churches closed their doors, the ordinances
of religion ceased. and every indication of
mourning was manifested, and tokens of resis-
lance were evinced by those who were in
clined TO support the religious establishment.
The Mexican Congress, and the Mexican
press everywhere, appear 10 be thoroughly
reused. They are alarmed almost 10 despair.
The issue they make is Scr no Ser to
he or not 10 be-
The Legislature of Virginia have rcque ST.
ed the Governor OF that State TO return 10 the
Executive Of Vermont the resolutions adop-
ted by the latter State, on the subject Of the
Mexican war and slavery. The same dispo-
siIion had previously been made of similar
resolutions from Maine and New Hampshire.
