Mexico,

The news from Mexico is meagre. The Picayuue
OF the I'd ins mentions the receipt of Mexican papers,
and says
Hle proclamation of Gen. Scott to the Mexican ma
ton was produced in the Mexican Congress on the
18th OF May. From the statement of the Minister
II would seem to have been found among some inter-
cepted papers. The Republican, treats the document
with little ceremony, and without attempting to reply
to ITS reasonngs, denounces it as impairment and dis
respectful The Government has conceived the sus-
pcion that the document was eoncocted by some Mex
lean acting IN conjunction with Scott and - the fury
OF the nation and the severity of The laws are held
uptn tsyrorem against all who thus connive with the
enemy. --'.- e
The contributions of the clergy of the country by
no means correspond the demands and expectations
OF the Government the liberal editors Some bsh-
oprlcs are highly commended for their liberaty while
others are strongly condemned as nggardy in their
appropriations. Many, too, of the clergy made no
acknowledgment Of or reply to the circular of the
Government calling upon them for aid. They are
threatened with official and popular dspeasure
The law suPpressing the liberty of the press has
been found futile The press appears to US as bold
ever and instead of supporting Anaya, it now oppo-
SIS him. 1t has even compelled, by its influence, the
recent change of Ministers
