Late and Important Mexican News

and A. r. Hetzel, we are placed in possession of
our files of papers from the City Of Mexico to the
23d, from Queretaro to the Goth, and from Vera
Cruz to the 2Sth.
GT-A letter from Maj Gen. Butler to Gen.
Brooke, dated the evening of the Goth, at O'Clock,
P. M, states that the treaty had been ratified by
the Senate by vote of 80 to d. and that in all pro-
liability the exchange of notifications would take
place the following day. Gen. Butler also requests
Gen. Brooke to have transportation provided for
$4,000 men, who would be on the coast in twenty
days. The movement of the army from the in
terror would commence in a week.
Just previous to the departure of the A. R. Hetzel
the British Courier arrived at Vera Cruz from
Queretaro, bringing news of the ratification OF the
treaty by the Senate. Major Graham was hourly
expected at Vera Cruz with dispatches for our gov
eminent, containing the notifications by the Mexl
can government.
So confident, at the last accounts from Queretaro
was the administration of the final passage OF the
treaty through the Senate; that, Immediately upon
its ratification by the Chamber of Deputies, they
despatched an express TO the City OF Mexico, IN
wiling our Commissioners Immediately to the seat
of Government On the 22d, Messrs Clifford and
Sewer left Mexico for the Capital. The Star OF
the 22d, says:
Dezarture of the COMMISSIONERS Messrs. Cliff
ford and Sewer left here yesterday for Queretaro,
escorted by 60 or 20 men of the Sd Dragons. This
looks as if we should soon have peace, and we
opne that our Commissioners have not a doubt of
it. They will be four or five days in going up, and,
in all probability, will find the treaty ratified by
the Senate, when they arrive. If this be the case
their business in Queretaro will be soon ended.
puuccoEenfee Acoordipu tn the Debates
this State has been the scene of another attempt at
revolution, which it does not seem will be sup
pressed with quite so much facility the abortive
instruction in San Louis Potosi. The latter State
and also Guadalaara, said also to be concerned
in this movement. Aguascalientes is one OF the
strongest Puro States in the Mexican contederacy.
She was originally part of Zacetecas but not
liking TO be subjected to restraint, and feeling the
spirit of independence strong within her, she de-
termined to set up for herself She was according
lv admitted or rather forced herself into the Union
as separate State, and Zacetecas, after many In
effectual efforts to control over her, was
obliged to concede the point The case IS some
what similar to that of Vermont and New York.
In this recent revolution, the coalition which we
sometime since predicted would take place, has &C
tually occurred. We mean that between the ultra
Puros or Democrats, the Monarchiss and the San
tanistas or Centraliss. This is combination of
the disconnected and disafected of each Of the par
lies of the Republic, whether they will be able to
effect anything remains to be seen.
Los Debates understands the plan of the insur-
rectioniss to have three objects in view.
First-The destruction of the present Govern
ment. Second.-The removal of the Federation,
and establishment of the original basis of lS43
a DICTATORSHIP. Ihird.-To place ST.. d. Caye-
ano Portugal, for the present, at the head of the
Government.
1t is added that Paroles, in conjunction with
Santa Anna and two other Generals, is at the head
of the pronunc,an,aento.
The Debates seem to have forgotten that Santa
Anna is in Jamaica, and not Aguascalientes-yet
we have no doubt that his name was used by the
insurgents, and that his partisans are concerned
with them.
A correspondent of the Monitor alludes to the
revolution in very contemptuous manner, as will
be seen by the following extract from his letter:
QUERETARo Saturday, May 20th.-I think the
news of Yesterday will have reached you at five in
the afternoon. am told that the Government Ex-
press left very late, and will reach your city by
dawn on Sunday, to invite the Commissioners to
repair hither.
Lacunza, of the committee, took the Treaty to
the Senate to-day, who Immediately referred it to
the Committee of Relations. They will present
their report on Monday, since they are already at
work upon it, and understand that ID. Fernando
Ramirez has been appointed to draw it up.
The Puros are circulating rumOr to-day of
pronunciamento in Aguascalientes, by certain
Zavala, who has been commandante there, and
who was ordered to give up the command to Ar
teaga, which he declined doing AS Paroles and
Father Jaraua were there, it is feared that they
at their old tricks. | do not, however, attach any
importance to it, because an express would have
hap pSDppIalIV q
ton is represented to have taken place on the 18th.
Paredes American Star says that letter
from Queretaro states that the lady Of Gen. Pa
redes has asked the sum of ten thousand dollars to
enable him to leave the country. The National
Government is probably in arrears to Paroles for
services as President and General, but we doubt
whether he has any serious intention of leaving
the Republic-just at this moment of all others.
If Paroles receives the 900 it will tend to
keep him in the country, rather than take him out
of it. Money is an efficient engine in the hands
of Mexican leader. We extract the following
items from the Star of the Goth:
San Luis.-Letters from San Luis Potosi to-
Monday last Q5th) state that the Commentaries
General had taken measures TO inquire into the
origin of the late outbreak in that city, and ascer
tain the accomplices. Several subordinate officers
Montenegro and Ortiz had made their escape. OF
the nstigators one only deputy Mendiola) was in
chains The other, the deputy Pastor, his BROTHER
who furnished the insurgents with money, has fed.
Gems. Mejia and Ortega are accused as accom-
plices, and it was believed they would be arrested
by the Government
From Pachuca-A train came in from Pachuca
On Sunday morning, under command of Major
Lally, escorted by Lieut.. SchGnover's company of
Dragons. Among the officers who arrived are
Capt Webb, Lieut.. Glackin, Lieut. McNabb,
Adjutant of the 9th Lieut.. Simmons, Quartermas-
er and Commissary, Lieuts. Burton and Billings.
The two last have just received their commissions.
The train brought down some silver for one of the
companies at Real del Monte. 1t will take back
Quartermaster stores and camp equipage for the
roops on their march towards the coast. We I'M
1ersand they will cross the country to Perote
when the orders are given to move, and not to re-
urn to this city The boys of the gallant 9th,
nave, in all probability, the last of the Mex
ian capital.
Elections IN Morelia.-The intelligence of the
election of President and Senators on the part of
Morelia had been received at the seat of Govern
