LATER FROM MEXICO.
An Armistice Granted--Gen. Lanes Ex-
petition and Fight with the Guerrille-
ros--The Mexican Congress.-Santa An
mas Designs, &c.

AS we were led to anticipate by news previously
received from Mexico The negotiations of the Mex
lean commissioners with those appointed by Gen
Butler have terminated in an armstice. The d0cu-
ment is too lengthy for insertion to-day and is said
10 have caused great deal of satisfaction in private
circles.
By this news from Mexico, it appears that the pub
lib dissatisfaction concerning the Treaty is very
great The Governors of Jalisco. Guauajuanato, Ia
catecas aad Oaiaca to be opposed to the treaty
while San Luis and Tobasco have declared their cor
dial support fthe action ofthe Supreme Government
The chief ground ofopposition the treaty appears
be that it has been made public, while it very
well known that it would be unprecedented to pub
lish . treaty until after its ratification.
The Mexican Congress have not yet met

present.

should posse ss-that they should be great ma.
tlon--and that through them all mankind should
receive in future ages blessing The obedi.
ence required of Adam, merely to retain all the
blessings he enjoyed; the obedience of Abraham
was to sacrifice all that he possessed for the
vague and distant prospect of future compen-
sation to his posterity; the selfcontrol and
self-denia required of Adam, was in itself the
slightest that Imagination can conceive,-but
its failure was punished by the forfeiture of all
his enjoyments; the self-dominion to be exer-
cised by Abraham was of the most severe and
painful but lis accomplishment will ul-
timately be rewarded by the restoration of all
that was forfeited by Adam This restoration.
however, was to be obtained BY no ordinary
proof of obedience; the sacrifice of mere per
sonal blessings, however great could not Law
the foundation for the retention Of mankind
from death; the voluntary submission of Jesus
Christ to his own death, in the most excrucia-
ting and ignominlous form, was to consum-
mate the great plan of redemption, but the
submission of Abraham to sacrifice his beloved
and only son Isaac-the child promised by God
himself, and through whom all the greater
promises were to be carried into effect, the feel
ings of nature, the parents bowels, were all
required to be sacrificed by Abraham to the
blind unquestionng principle Of obedi-
ence to the will of God. The blood of
Isaac was not indeed shed-the butchery of an
only son By the hand ofhis father, was a sacri-
flee which merciful God did not require to be
completely executed, but as an instance Of
obedience it was imposed upon Abraham, and
nothing less than the voice of an Angel from
Heaven, could arrest his uplifted arm, and
withhold him from sheathing his knife in the
heart of his child: 1t was upon this TESTING
NAL of obedience, that Gods promise of re-
demption was expressly renewed to Abraham;
''In thy seed shall all the nations OF. the earth
be blessed. because thou hast obeyed my voice. >
Gen. xii. Is.

THt OPINION OF A CONGRESsMAN.

N.
The following is from the Hon. Lewis c. Levin,
Member OF Congress, from the First Congressional
District, Pa, and formerly Editor of the Philade-
phia Sun
1T has been said ;that were influenced by selfish,
considerations; in bearing testimony in favor OF
"Jaynes Expectorant, and that as reward tor our
services, he pays largely Advertiser in the sun
Now, long before the Editors connection with this
paper commenced, he had been relieved from hoarse
and oppression OF the chest by the this
rivalled remedy, and from a sense of duty, recon-
mended it TO the public At that time, he had not
the most remote idea OF editing daily paper; and
DIR. Jayne gives preference the Sun, not only on
OF large and aidly increasing circulation,
but because the paper opens 10 the Advertiser
class OF readers who were in the habit OF taking
the daily penny papers of the city In hearing our
humble testimony TO the virtues of the Expectorant,
do not stand alone. Thousands in this city attest
its curative powers, and although opposed to the
ofwhat are termed ''Quack medicines" generally,
yet, when in this case, have felt the benefit OF
the remedy-when, we freely acknowledge, we
keep it constantly in our family, a certain and
prompt remedy for Group or Coughs, feel that we
subserve the interests society," when state such
facts to the public. The Misrepresentation OF inter
ested individuals, have forced this explanation upon
us, which we cheeriully give"

BEEF STEAKs.-Beef steaks arc said to
have been invented by Traian, for some
offence, to act as one Of mental sacrlicers
Of Jupiter. The fragment Of the victim be-
ing laid upon the fire, the unfortunate SEN
a.or was compelled to turn them. In the
process, one of the slices slipped oh'lhe Goals,
and was caught by Plaucius in the fall. 1t
burned his fingers, and he instinctiveIy put
them in his mouth; in that mo ment, he made
the grand discovery that the taste Of slice
thus carbonatcd was infinitely beyond all
the old sodlencd cookery of Rome. Turn
Ing the whole ceremony into the matter Of
appetite ne swallowed every slice, deluded
Traan, d2fraudcd Jupiter, and invented beef
steaks.
