BY this it will appear, that during many Of
these years the receipts amounted to nearly
twenty-eight millions 1t is very evident that,
under proper administration of the finances of
Mexico, our government may be able to support
the American army in that republic, as long
as it is necessary to maintain it there. 1t is
even said, that there thirty millions Of specie
now ready for expectation at the several mines
in Mexico, belonging to the English and German
companies who own them. Probably it is with
reference to this amount OF specie, that We hear
Of an expedition being sent towards these mines

TIE ITALIAN OpHAA-The opera Of "Lucre1ia
Borga" was brought out last night at the Astor
Place Theatre. before the most brilliant assem-
blage of beauty and fashion which has yet been
seen within the walls Of that establishment
The style in which this opera was given, we
shall reserve for another opportunity. Benedict
and Truffi received much applause-but Madame
Rossi is a poor substitute for Madame Pico,
whose rich and splendid voice cannot be equalled
in the eontralto, by any vocalist in this country.
Indeed, she is equal, in many respects, to Albonl
But what singular ups and downs are to be observ-
ed in the attempt to make the Italian Opera perma-
nent in New York! On Monday evening :" Pu-
rtani" was performed to the thinnest house we
have seen during the season. In short, if
we look over all the portion OF the season
that has passed, we shall find that the full and
the thin houses have been pretty eq ualy distri-
buted. The comparative success of the Opera,
so far, has been such as to shut up the Park, to
cause reduction of prices at the Broadway,
to demoish the legitimate drama in New York !;
and yet the Italian Opera itself is but half estab-
lshed. Thus far, its success must be more at
tributed to the subscribers than to the manage
ment. Ridiculous blunders have repeatedly been
committed by these managers, from the Begin
ming of the enterprise to this day, every now and
then. Their stupidity has been only remedied
| by the constant attendance Of the subscribers,
whe, composing the very elite Of the city, have
| brought all the crowded houses which have on
| any occasion graced the house. We hear, also,
that it is reported that "Leonora"-a feeble
attempt at an opera made by young amateur of
Philadelphia few years ago, and which failed
there's about to be brought out at the Opera of
Astor Place in few weeks. This will be ano-
ther great mistake of the management. From a
refuse to make any selection, and are going to
give us a ridiculous production, which has been
pronounced upon, several years ago, in Philadel-
pha.
When will the managers and their advisers
learn common sense and common prudence!

The OHIO NOMINATION OF GENERAL CAss-
The nomination Of General Cass, by Demo-
cratic State Convention IN Ohio, 10 a very
important step in the progress of the Presiden.
tial canvass. 1t is the first distinct movement
of the kind taken by the democratic party,
throughout the country. From appe arances, tn is
step will be followed by the democracy in the
other North Western States-in Michigan, In
diana, and Illnois-to say nothing of the
chances which he has in other parts, in the South.
West 1t is said that the Pennsylvania State
Convention will nominate Mr. Buchanan. Be
this as 1t may, General Cass may proceed from
nomination to nomination, with great strength.
We understand, also, that preparations are
making in this State for demonstration in
his favor as a candidate. A war meeting
will be held soon at Tammany Hall, and we
learn that Mr.. McKeon, who is the United
States District Attorney in this city, and who is
a strong friend of General Cass's, will bring for
ward his name as democratic candidate. We
also learn that State Convention has been
called, to meet the 26th Of this month, at Albany.
This is done by the old hunkers, or conserva-
tives, or anti-Wilmot proviso men, who ere OPP
posed by the friends of Mr.. Van Buren,. How
ever, it is good deal to have the first foot in
the field. If Mr.. Polk should not be candi
date, we should not be at all surprised to see
Gen. Cass obtain the nomination.
All these movements indicate that Cass will
be formidable candidate in the Democratic Ma
aonal Convention. The other candidates, Wood
bury, Buchanan, and Van Buren,will, of course,
do their best in opposition. In this State, the
friends of Mr.. Van Buren, have already thrown a
rocket into the camp, and are resolved to oppose
Cars, tooth and nail. because Of his rivalry at
the last Baltimore National Convention, which
was the Cause OF the defeat of Mr.. Van Buren's
nomination.
