Later from Mexico.

Our papers by the ship Lemuel Dyer are TO the
22d ult from Vera Cruz, and to the 18th IRON the
city OF Mexico. The news is not OF great noinett5
but still not uninteresting.
Senior 0tero has resigned the portfolio OF M.his-
ter of Relations, aud beep succeeded by ID. LUIS
u. Cuevas, who took the oath and entered upon
the duties Of his office on the l5lhult. The change
is not much remarked upon, and yet we see Is not
thought favorably Of.
The Government continues i'll the utmost dis
tIess for funds. No one has come OrWaru 10 take
the loans advertised.
The National Guard Of the capital is represent
ed as being in a state OF almost complete disor-
gsnization, growing out OF the want oil energy on
the part OF the Executive Government.
The Sligo denies that the Government has con-
niyed AZ the escape of Paredes. On the contrary,
il declares that orders were despatched to Vera
Cruz and Tampico 10 have him arrested, TO one of
which ports il was supposed he had proceeded
The runoI was current m Vera Cruz that he got OIL
on the last British steamer.
The pretended pronunciamenio IN Mazatlan
turns out 10 have been without foundation. There
was a numerous meeting OF the citizens OF the
place, by which energetic resolutions were pass
ed in favor of the protection OF the commerce OF
the port.
We get no further authentic details from Tampi-
CO. The eyes OF the country sppesf 10 be turned
towards Tamaulpas as likely 10 be the theatre OF
events of the utmost importance TO The integrity
Of the Republic. The independence OF that State,
il is thought. would lead at once 10 further annex
alton TO the United Slses. Gen. Arista is accused
of favoIng the designs Of the disunionlsts, and
letters from this city are published which are said
To nculpate him, but has friends tepel The attacks,
saying that they were only designed 10 weaken
the Government by tomentng enspIclona 81 10 one
of its principal members.
The new Minister OF the French Republic TO
Mexico had brilliant reception from his country
men and other foreigners. Balls and entertain
menth were given To him, at which the diplomatic
body assisted.
In the papers we have read we do not recolect
TO have met with any renewed attack upon SANTA
Anna nor is anything said of the probability OF ms
return. The Government is urged, however, To
arrest one of his notorious mnons now in the
country, and send him packing.
The most scandslOus robberies continue 10 be
committed in the city OF Mexico, and II is assert
ed that two hundred notorious free-booters left
town at once for the great fair OF San Juan de los
Lagos.
On the night of the 10th ult., the diligence
from Vera Cruz TO Mexico was robbed within half
league of the former city. The passengers, among
whom is said 10 have been our Consul, Mr.. Black
were scandalously matreated One man was ar
| rested in Vera Cruz with goods which appeared TO
have been taken from the passengers. Tie pre-
tended 10 betray his confedeTates, and was taken
by the police 10 place outside the walls TO identl-
| ~ them. When once outside, the police officers
7, were themselves surprised and surrounded by the
mans accomplices, and the culprit made his es-
cape. -,
There was an outbreak al Orizaba on the 9th
ult, between some Indians and the National
Guards. II was promptly suppressed with loss Of
| fifteen men killed OF wounded.
| Religious toleration is just now the subject o.
much discussion by the press Of Mexico The ed
/ tors are rluch more liberal in their views of Il
than the clergy The latter oppose il bitterly.
Letters from Sstillo, written near the end OF DC
| tober give sad accounts of the incursons OF In
dams in that section of country. In all the en-
counters which the whites have had with them
the former have displayed unheaId of cowardice
They seem totally unacquainted with the use o
arms and ly at the first sight OF the ruthless in
vaders. From almost all the Northern States we
have incessant complaints of Indian depredations
