Important News from Mexico,

Our readers will find in this days paper, some
very important and interesting intelligence from
Mexico. That country appears to be on the verge
OF great crisis, the result of which may be its
ACKNOWLEDGMENT and the annexation of great
portion of its territory to the United States
1t appears that fr'onnnciamento has been issu-
ed in Tampi co, proclalming not only the indepen-
dence OF that State, but its annexation to this re-
public. To say the least, this is decidedly cool
on the part of our neighbors. 1t has always been
matter OF dipsute among our citizens, whether
or not we were too hasty and preciptate In annex
ing Texas; but now, it seems that whole State
OF that republic has, without as much as saving
"by your leave" shaken off its connection with
the federal government, and annexed itself to this
country. To all appearances it never occurred to
the inhabitants of TampIco that to consummate
the annexation which they propose, and are appa-
rently soeeager for, requires the consent of the
other party. They may, however, be of opinion
that our "manlfest destiny'' would lmpel us to
overlook all formalties, and take them into
our confederation without delay
Mexico is truly in threatening position. With
this Tamplco 2ronunciomento the expected return
OF Santa Anna at the invitation of the army. and
the disordered condition in which that whole
country appears to be, we would not be sur
Prised to see terrible state of anarchy there be-
fore long. If Tampico succeed in carrying out
her designs of independence, her example will be
followed by other States of the republic, and in
few years the whole country will be begging to
be annexed to the United States. The recent war
has, probably, given her people insight into our
power, resources and stability, and induced them
to wish that they were as happily situated as
we are.
II may possibly be, that the question of annex
ing the whole of Mexico will he the great issue
in our Presidential election In the year 1852.
Stranger things have occurred, and take place
almost every day.

GEN. TAYLOR AND THE VKTo.-An effort is
being made, by interested parties in this region, to
prove that General Taylor is unquaIlfedly opposed
to the exercise of the veto power, and to produce
that impression on the public mind Gen Taylor
has, TO be sure said that he would not for sli ght
reasons, veto any measure passed by the peoples
representatives In Congress; but to argue from this
that he would not the veto at ALL would be alb.
surd. In case any particular clique or faction
In Congress, should attempt to control him, in the
discharge of his executive duties, we apprehend
that opposed he says he is to the use of the veto,
he would apply it as promptly as any man. He is
no more opposed to it, we think, than General
Washington or Mr.. Jefferson was.

WANTS OF CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATEs-A
Tree sou paper states that majority of the cand-
dates, now before the people of New York. as
members OF Congress. want Offices of some kind
or other. II says that Mr. Law wants a contract
that Mr. Brooks wants an office, which is very
likely; but that Mr.. Fields wants nothing. The
question then arises, what does Mr.. Greeley want7
We do not know whether he aspires to an Office or
not, but we certainly do know that he wants
new coat, for the old one is becoming seedy; and
we are sure that his pantaloons might be replaced
with better ones. AS to fresh new hat we pre-
sumo tina, no one will question that he stands
much in need of that.

REVOLUTIONARY JOURNALS IN New YoRK-We

by Mr.. L Darcy MCGEE, who was associate
editor IN the Dublin Nation, and who has recently
arrived in this country, refugee from the perse-
cutors OF his native land. New York is rapidly
becoming, If she Is not now, sort of neutral
ground, where the revolutionary spirits of Eu-

REVIVAL OF OLD NAMES AND OLD DocrRINEs-
We perceive that our contemporary, the Courier
and Enquirer, Is trying to revive some of the old
doctrines which prevailed at the common cement
OF the present century, and make them available
at the next Observation-Disclosures which were main
tanned by the old federalists, and which were the
means of consignlng that highly respectable or
ganzation to the tomb of the Capulets-and, with
that view, publishes famous correspondence tina,
toon place between the politicians of that sect and
the celebrated Rufus King, in which that dlstln-
gWshed statesman took very uncompromlsing
ground on the Missouri Compromise, as it is call.
ed. is certainly very strange that the Courier
and Enquirer should take ground In favor of the
ultra notions of the last century, in this age of the
world, when it knows that they have been long
since repudlated. II is, however, in conso nance
with putting before the public, as candidates for
high stations, such men as the Kings, who have
recently taken the field, and, no doubt, has some
thing to do with it. James G.. King, fnancier
OF Wall street, has, 1t appears, been selected by
the farmers of New Jersey to represent them in
the next Congress, and John A. King, gentleman
at large, has been taken up by the people of Long
Island TO ctfor them In the same capacity These
gentlemen are the descendants of old Rufus King,
and, no doubt, If they be elected to Congress, they
will endeavor to revive the exploded nostrums of
past age. This may account for the attempt. by
our contemporary, to revive the old tactics of the
last century,

at home, to manage his paper for the brief time
which 1t will yet be IN existence. He certainly
has good reason to be alarmed For long time

Convention in Philadelphia, he exerted himself to

VACANCIES.
1t will appear from these tests that the next Con-
gress will be composed of more mixed n,ate,ia
than probably any that has ever assembled in
Washington. We perceive that an effort is being
made by some ultra wing journals in this neigh
borhood, to impress upon the public the idea that
none but ultra wing members ought to be elected !;
but it isvery doubtful whether such will be the case
nor would 1t be advisable to have Congress either
ultra wing or ultra democratic. We want Con.
gress that will represent opinions of every kind
even those of the advocates of Fourlerlsm and
on this account 1t would be we'll to electMr. Gree
ley. We would then see how Fourlerism would
get on in the American Congress. We know the
success which it met with in France Louis Blanc,
Its great advocate and exponent was obliged to
run away as fast as his legs would carry him. 1t
evidently cannot get along in the representative
assemblies of that country SO we ought to give it
a chance here, and see whether Mr. Greeley will
be obliged to run away, too Let us have no ultra
Congress. Let 1t be as mixed as possible, and let
