changes from the City Of Mexico, up to the DIST ult,
Very little is doing in the political circles of the
capital. The city seems to be too much taken IN
with Listening to Mad. Bishop and NJ Herr, TO
think or talk much about politics. The Sierra
Madre Instruction still attracts some attention,
and 1t is reported that Gen. Minon is to take the
place OF Gen. Bustsmente at the head of the army
against the insurgents. The cause given ior the
change is the ill-health Of Bustamente
A statement made by the Trait d Union in re-
gard to English mediation in Yucatan, had at
traced considerable attention. 1t was said that
England had offered to mediate between the whites
and the Indians but the Mosquito affair seemed
to act as warning, and it was suggested to the
Mexicans that the farce of another Indian King
| dom might be played off in Yucatan. The French
paper thinks that England may continue 10 add TO
her Mosquito territory on the North, and the Uni
ted States absorb the Mexican States, until the two
come in collision somewhere about Tehuantepec.
The Mexican papers published reports taken down
bv the steamer Trent, in regard to the enlIstnentof
| men in the United States for a secret expedition.
| The object. they heard by the steamer, was to
force GOV. Barbachano to pay certain dues to the
| American volunteers but the Mexicans appeared
TO think that they were intended for the Sierra
lladre.
The Government of San Luis Potosi has ordered
Manuel Verastegui to leave the territory of that
State. The motive for the measure is said to be
the relations existing between Verssegui and the
Sierra insurgents. He it was, our readers may re-
collect, who proposed the plan of paciication,
which was the basis of the treaty signed by Quiroz.
The Municipal Council of Tampico have adj
dressed petition to the Federal Government pray
ing for the reduction Of duties and the free entrance
of building materials and provisions. They hope
that Congress will consider the matter during the
present session.
The papers speak of disturbances in Mazatlan,
produced by an American shooting soldier who
was attempting to arrest him. The people of the
town was very much incensed at the act, and were
about TO lay violent hands on the American, when
he was taken to Jail by the civil authorities. The
mob began to cry, /" death to the Yankees " the
Americans in the town armed themselves and pre-
pared for the attack but the police succeeded in
dispensing the mob and restoring order and quiet.

GEN. TAYLOR AS AN ORATOR The Picayune
Of yesterday contains some strong remarks upon
the criticisms of the partisan press directed against
Gen. Tayor's efforts at speech-making. 1t is said,
with much justice, that oratory is not one of the
qualities essential for the proper discharge of the
Presidential Office and that Gen. Taylor's life and
pursuits have not been such as to enable him to
cultivate the arts of eloquence. Some of the most
useful and able men we have ever known were I'M
able to make the shortest public address without
stammering and confusion while among the most
fluent of our public orators are many in whose
Judgment, for the conduct of public affairs, we
would not confde moment But does not the
Picayune go too far, in saying so absolutely that
Gen. Taylor is " no orator." We have been read
ing some of his late addresses which, to our TASTE
read as smoothly as the Allison letters. But there
are differences in tastes about compositions as in
everything else.

The Release of Rev at Havana.

Il is a mooted question, whether the Spanish au-
thorties liberated Rey on their own motion, or in
compliance with the demand of our Government
made through the American Consul, Gen. Camp
bell. The documents received here from Havana
make the liberation a voluntary act in considera-
ton Of previous understanding but the National
Intelligencer, at Washington afirms that the Sec
rotary of State, by the Presidents order, having
instructed our Consul at Havana, to demand the
person of Juan Garcia, alias Rey, on the ground
&c that he was bound to maintain the invioability
OF the person of every man entitled 20 the protec-
" ton of the American Constitution and Laws, we
learn that our Consul accordingly made the de-
mand, and that Garcia has been delivered up to
" him and sent to New Orleans in obedience to the
| " Secretarys instructions" The information Of
Reys return here referred to- was sent forward by
telegraph, and it is probable that the Integencel
merely infers that the liberation was made in com
| pliance with demand. But we have no doubt
that the release was granted without Government
nterposition.
The Republic is more positive in affirming that
the demand of the Government effected this release.
But there are some anachronisms in its article which
do not strengthen our confidence in its accuracy.
It treats, for example, the knowledge of Rey's i'm
prisonment at Havana, as one Of the facts which
fixed its opinions of Rey's abduction, and called
for the interpositon of the Government. Now, the
first information received in the United States o.
| Rey's imprisonment, was by the Tarquin, which
reached New York on the 18th August. Rey's dis
| charge was given in Havana on the 18th. w,
must be pardoned for doubling whether commune
cations between Washington and Havana are quit,
so rapid as this. 1t beats lightning.
! Besides, we had the authority of the Republic
on the 9TH Of August, for saying that the Govern
ment was then engaged "in investigating the
facts" The examinations in this city did not ter
inmate until the l4th, and the Government, there
fore had in all probability, no judicial information
Of the facts, until after Rey had been set at liberty
Besides, there was no arrival at Havana from the
United States, before the Salvatore sailed, by
which it was possible for the order in question t
have been transmitted.
We infer, therefore, that the orders transmitted
to Gen. Campbell, could not have reached him be
fore the object had been obtained without the off
cial demand, which on the testimony of the Wash
ington papers, believe to have been directed by
the President Such was the understanding all
round, in this city, on Rey's arrival.

REMAINS OF A MAsTODoN AND Fossil ELE-
PHANT.-Dr. John C. Warren has edited the Ma
tonal Scientific Association, sitting at Cambridge
port Mass by an exposition of the varieties of the
Mastodon. He exhibited teeth of the u Anguish
dens, found in the State of Maryland, some fifteen
miles from Baltimore which he considered Miocene
fossils like many similar teeth in Europe; showing
higher antiquity than the relics of the MastodOn
gigdnteus. His specimens nearly resemble the mas
todon teeth of South America. DR.. Warren made
distinction of the mastodon race into two species
but his position here was cOmbatted by Professor
AgassIZ and Others who held to the existence of
additional species Prof. Agassiz exhibited the re-

Western Enterprise.-We were not little sur
prlsed few days since, TO learn that the enter
prising citizens Of Port Lavaca have opened a new
trade with New Orleans. The steamer Yacht has
been engaged to transport cattle from that port to
New Orleans, and about fifty head were shipped
on board this vessel on her last trip The success
that has attended this enterprise has induced seve.
raj capitalists to attempt to establish new line of
steamers OF light dTaught to ply regularly between
the western ports and New Orleans. These steam
ers will transport emigrants, their agricultural i'm
plements, ETC., and merchandise from New Or
leans to the western ports and their return trims
Will take back cattle, cotton and other agricutur,
products of the country. Capt. Brewer has been
out at the West soliciting subscriptions for the mr.
pose OF purchasing two staunch light-draught
steamers like the Ogden, which are TO ply betweenI
New Orleans and those ports. We understand tha I
they are TO be connected with the Morgan line
OF steamers now plying between New Orleans
and Galveston. II is said that Mr.. Morgan and his
associates have made profits exceeding $780, 600 in
the Texas trade, and they are endeavoring TO ex-
tend their business so as to control the whole trade
of the west Any enterprise that tends to deVelopA
the resources Of the State should be encouraged
and we doubt not that our western friends, who
have long been distinguished for their energy and
enterprise, will cordially aid in this undertaking.
The cattle Of western Texas ara distinguished for

and we are confident that they will command as
high price in the New Orleans market as the
| best cattle Of the Western States. We have been
informed that since the cholera has been prevailing
along the Mississippi, very few cattle have been
brought down the river, and the market Of New
Orleans has been nearly supplied by importatons
from Texas We hope that the new trade that has
thus been opened under favorable auspices will be-
come source of wealth to our citizens, and will
induce thousands of new settlers to locate in the
