The Republic 1--WE copy the comments Of the
PicayuncD appears TO be in restless, almost te-
verish stato although we have no more political
outbreaks to record. Robberios upon the highways
and in the streets are frequent, the police Of the
towns is inefficient. the insurgents Of the Sierra are
not vet subdued the sovagca aro desootng the
/ frontier States. the Government is without funds,
and Congress does nothing. Complaints are rlio
through the press but it is impossible for Us 10 see
very clearly what the difficulty IS which wou.
/ seem to Oyershadow the country, causing uncasI-
/ ness and disalTcction. Apprehension Of the re-
turn Of Santa Anna, or wishes for that event, may
account for the air Of mystery in which every
/ thing is enyeIopcd.
The papers s1v little Of Santa Anna; they point
/ to him continually. Some OF :he ayuntarDiontos
Of the cities have pollionod Congress hat no be by
! law forever banishcd from the country.
/ We find in the papers proposals for n loan Of
$500 COG. based upon the indemnity to be paid by

/ paragraph in one paper, that the sum Of $780,
600 had been obtained. but that there was much
doub! whether the remajning $GO0,OCO could be
procured.
A card Of the editors Of El No'ici9s2 or Tam
pico, appears in the Siglo and I0ai0r, cTcusl ng
themselves for foroarrrng to comment upon the
events Of the 29rh and. 3Otn September, in Tnnpi-
co. They attribute their silence TO the necessity
/ of the casc-'' the want Of guarantees and Iiber-

Some Of the officers OF the National Guard. o.
TamPico. no refused to Join in the outbreak. have
justified themselves in a long exposition to the Co
vernon. They treat the pretended fear OF Santa
Anna's return rs 4 mere prctoXt. and o.!o-e that
the Iudendcnce OF the State, or irs annexation 90
the United States is the object of Plo Castillo and
his associates. Representations begin to reach
Mexico, from various parts Of Iamau.ipas, that
the fears expressed Of the buffalo hunters - are
quite idle; that there is no such body or men. nor
is there likely to be one formed; and that the in
Eo5itanls of IamauIipas. generally, have no zvm.

There h7s been n violent quarrel in regard to the
elections Of the State Of Mexico. We have not

ONO GOVERNORS ELEcTIoN.--We find the fol-
! lowing in the Ohio Shield & Banner, from waich
1t seems that the gallant Weller is after all olsc-
ted Governor of Ohio:
a report has reached here through gentle.
man direct from Columbus, that COL Weller is
elected Governor by 10 majority. This looks
plausible, from the returns and footing up of the
State journal of Tuesday, which says:
Official returns have been received at tho Of
nee OF the Secretary of Stuto Of the result Of the
election in all the counties oftha State. but Column
bnna, PIckoway, and Woodland authenlc re-
turns of maiorilics are on hand from these coun-
ties From all of which it appears that the ma.
jorjty for Gen. Ford is 336. This is an extreme
y close vote, when it is considered that there we're
about 100000 votes cast"
The above 336 claimed for Ford, will be offset
by 35S minority gwen for Col. Weller in the
townships and fractional townships cut of from
this county to Morrow, and from a misapprchen
sion Of the Justices who made out tho Richiand
abstract, were not sent on to Columbus until Tues.
day last, supposinS they did, that the votes of
these townships were to be returned to Morrow
