A PoLITIcAL CRIsIs IN MEXICO There have.
been so many political revolutions in Mexico,
that the announcement of a new one every few
months is looked upon as matter of course,
Recent intelligence from that country shows
that the hopes Of the Santa Annaists are reyiy-
ing, and they look upon the present pecnniary
troubles as favorable to their projects. During
whole year the attention of Congress, Of the
press and Of the most enlightened of the Mexi-
caps, has been directed towards one sole object---
thS creation Of a revenue. The last of the i'm
demnity has been spent and they now find
themselves without means, and incapable of
providing for the present exigencies There is
nothing to expect from the new Congress, who
meet in January next A very strong appeal
to the clergy is made. They are urged to pro-
vide means for the government wants out Of
their riches but they have been 50 often ap-
pealed to in vain, that the prospect of relief in
this quarter is very dark. In the mean time
the threatenings of an approaching storm are
heard in the repeated disturbances and OUT
breaks, requiring the aid of the military to sub
due. If any other party should prevail in
Mexico, how many months would it take, under
present circumstances, to produce another reyo-
luton ?-IuJLic Ledger.
