LATER FROM MoyrEvIpEo. - Files of the
Concrete del Plata to the llth March, have been
received at this office Several numbers of the
British Packet, published at Buenos Ayres, have
come to hand The U. S. frigate Brandywinc
was at Montevdeo on the 14th of March. The
brig Perry, Lieut.. Tilton, was at Buenos Ayres on
the 18th. They were expecting Baron eros from
France a special Minister to the Rosas govern
ment and he and the Hon. Capt. Gore, from the
English government, who had arrived as far Rio
Janciro, it was supposed, would enter into a new
series of negotiations with Rosas. We suspect,
however, that they will have been disappointed in
any calculations made on the French Minister, as
in the present changed condition of France, that
government has other things TO attend to besides
dplomatizing in South America.

TAYLOR MEETING AT LAFAYETTE HALL.-A
meeting was held last evening at Lafayette Hall, by
portion of the friends of General Taylor, for the
purpose of celebrating the victory gained at the
Rio Grande, at the commencement fthe Mexican
war. A report of this meeting will be found in
our columns. 1t ought to be observed, however,
that the meeting was called together by club of
the old Wall street wings, who have associated
themselves for the purpose Of assuming the direc-
ton of the Taylor men in New York. In fact.
however, they only form clique of the friends Of
General Taylor, and they enjoy no more influence
and Importance TO make him President, than any
other friends of President who can light a hall,
pay the expenses of the oil and gas, and engage a
place to make speeches. The leaders of these
cliques are merely the old broken down politicians
of both the old parties, wings and democrats, and
their influence in any administration that may
spring from General Taylors elevation, ought not
to be greater than any other clique. In this cityw we
have dozen ciqs, and the reason is, the effect Of
General Taylors popularity gives them encourage
ment that he will be elected.

GREAT AND NATIONAL REVOLUTION IN THIS CoUN-
political revolution in Europe, or whatever may be
the new notifications of society, both of the arts
tocracy and democracy in that region of the world,
there is one result which certain as the light
of day from the sun, and that is, the destruction of
all the existing financial and commercial systems
and establishments of the old world, and of all con-
nected with them elsewhere.
The public debts Of the governments Of Europe;
the existing system of banking In Europe and Ame-
RIGA; the great banking houses and large CONNER
cial establishments there, have all grown up
together, during the last two centuries The
public debts and public securities of Europe
have depended entirely upon quietness and peace,
which permitted the revenue to be collected and
poured into the Golfers of the government The re-
evolutionary state of the world destroys now all the
springs and sources of revenue, and consequently
the public securities Of all of them must 60 by the
board-of England as well as of the others. 1t may
be year or two before this result takes place; but
Of the certainty of this result no man can entertain
a doubt All the commercial and financial systems
connected with the great debt of England, will go
TO min; and as the revolution in politics pro-
gresses so that in finance will follow.
From this prospect in view, the merchants, bank
ers, traders and others in the United States, ought
TO make their arrangements to change whatever
may be necessary to change in connection with af-
fairs in Europe. All those houses in this country
which are involved in the European system
finance, must 60 by the board, as much as was the
case in the year 1887.

THE WEST INDIEs.-A highly important crisis is
impending over all the West India islands, but
more particularly those possessions which be-
long to the English, the French, and the Spaniards.
The interests of the British West Indies have been
long since sacrificed, in order crafty their rival
of Hindostan. This interest, centered in London,
combined with the action of the fanatics in Eng
land, has destoyed the property of those islands
The new French republic now bids fair, by some
limitations and DEGREES made, to bring about the
same state of things in the islands making part of
the colony there. In the French West India islands,
no doubt the slaves will soon be liberated and set
free by DEGREES that effect, to be issued by the
approaching National Assembly at Paris. Such
political colonial movement will soon reach Spain.
1t cannot be expected that the Spanish peninsula
will escape the great revolution which is now agi-
tatng all Europe alike. A revolution in Spain
will first affect Cuba, and afterwards the other
Spanish West Indies where the slaves will be set
free, and the destruction of all slave property fol-
low. II appears there is escape for Cuba and
the French West India islands, unless they deter
mine to take care of themselves. What will Cuba
do! What will be her policy? How will she be
able to avert the threatening tempest, and the ruin
which impends over all her interests 1t is for
Cuba herself to think and reflect well upon her
course. That she will do so is almost certain.

Defeat OF the Mexican Trcaty-Its Results.
Further accounts seem to strengthen the impress
sion that the recent treaty with Mexico will be de-
feaed by the government of that country, and that
no treaty will ever receive the sanction of the Mex
lean representatives The causes of this result
may be various. Ii is well known that the treaty
was framed under the auspices of certain English
bankers in Mexico. The provisions of the treaty
in which they were interested, were expunged by
the Senate, at Washington; and hence exercises
an influence in procuring its confirmation. Mr..
Trist, also was ordered home in disgrace, and the
recent court martial in Mexico may produce
a conviction in the mind of that government, that
the government at Washington disapproves of the
conduct of the generals and the negotators who
made the treaty, and rely on the trial of the annex
alton of all Mexico.
Whatever be the cause of the defeat of the treaty,
il becomes more than probable we shall have none
at all In such case, what is to be done in Mexicol
Will Mr.. Polk cause the American army to evacu-
ate that country, or will he await for any further
development of the future! The question will
soon have to be decided either way.

FJ;rEAr LITERARY AND DnxMArrc PRoBrrw--
a great problem in LII, and tn, drama, is now
pending before the audience of the Bowery
Theatre, who, since the revolution In the
mlnagem mt that took place there, have be-
come quite critical, and almost the best phi
losophers in the city in th,t Inc of art.
new play on a new SUBJECT, by new author, is
performing at the Bowery. 1t is written by Mr..
Cornelius Mathews, who is considered by some as
one of the fairest candidates for the fame of the
American Shakespeare, as ranked by authors, as
any pretender in any description of literature.
The play is on an American topic, and the audi
ences, coming from all classes will have to decide
on this, whether Cornelius Mathews is the descen-
dant of the legitimate Shakespeare or not.
Another important question is also before the
Bowery audience and that is, the position of MIR.
Murdoch who is considered by his friends the RI
val, if not the superior, of Forrest and even, in
some branches of the drama, of Kemble himself
The critics are ranged into two classes-one con-
demning, and the other supporting Mr.. Murdoch
so that the discriminating audience of the Bowery
theatre, must decide. So far as we have heard of
Mr.. Murdoch, he has more taste and finer feeling
than Forrest but he wants some of the energy and
passion, almost " torn to rags" which distinguish
the great Edwin, when played in theatrical style
Murdoch, therefore, seems to be more accom-
plished actor, but less energetic tragedian. He
may surpass Forrest in some particulars, but he
falls still behind him in deepest tragedy.
Many Still insist that Murdoch is better, more
finished superior, and even more classic than For
rest, whose style Of acting, at the BEST is only of
the tomahawk school of the Indian race Let the
discriminating audience who now crowd the Bow
| cry, determine this important question

Gus thoughts.
There are the majestic rivers winding
in spiritual tranquility amidst the green
meadows; the myriad wings OF insects
will flash in the sunbeams like molten
gold: there nature will spread before your
eyes her choicest treasures, and YOU will
bless the fate that led your feet to these
haunts of bright and blooming magnif-
cence. But YOU will behold something
more than nature.
There you may gaze upon the mounds,
the burial-pIaces and the Notifications OF
race who have ruled and gone down,
generation after generation to the ''silent
land" They loved and feared and wept
and rejoiccd as we do, they walked be-
meath the same broad blue canopy, they
were famed by the same wild gales OF
hcaven-the wave rolled on, and they
sunk amidst the general ruin.
What earthquake cngulphed their CT
ties, what conllagration envclopcd their
temples and burned their gods, what OF
science, wealth, power or glory was
theirs we know not, nor what hordcs
swept over and desolated their plans,
nor how terrible was the struggle upon
that brink over which they were hurled
to oblivion.
Deep in the banks of our western riv-
ers we sometimes discover an implement
of art or of industry, sometimes a mould
crng skull, very different from that OF
the Indian. These are sad mcmentos Of
a nations greatness, but they 60 to i'm
press our minds with the solemn lesson,
that however illusrious that nation may
be, how many fields may have been cr!m-
soncd with the blood oi'its enemies, how
many fields may have smoked under the
hands oGits generals, that fortune works
by turns.
1t is the lesson which was uttered by
Babylon, Palmyra and Nincveh amidst
the ring OF bucklers, the shouts OF iniuri-
atcd soldiers, the crash Of walls and the
light af burning temples-which was re-
echoed by Rome, Carthage and Jrrusa-
lem, and which is breathed by the mel
ancholy winds that daily around the
crumbling sepulchres Of Egypt and Nj
bia. It is, that Time end Death mlngle

howell and the palace. 7.
