bic annexation To this Union IS anticipated
by those who DO not consider that the coun-
try is peopied, and that We should not only
annex some territory, but also embrace a
people whose language, religion and tradi-
tons are different from our own, and where
capacity for free government has never YET
been developed. There IS, in some of these
States, portion of sugar-producing land,
and It may possible BE Of sufficient yalne tc

information. If these States should even
come into this Union, it is moro than proba.
bic that each Of them will, for long time,
be represented By as many senators as repre-
lsentatives. Even CalifHnia, though fol
three years it has attracted immigration from
IAN parts Of the world, is not yet entitled by
its population to two representatives, Du-
ring the debates i'll Congress on the bill tc
admit California as a State, it vas urged as
Ione of the arguments against 1t, that Califor
MIA had not, so far as we know, sufficient
number Of inhabitants to entitle them to two
representatives. It was then answered that
the population exceeded two hundred thous-
and, and would soon be doubled The re-
turns Of the late census show that the repre-
sentative population will be less than one
hundred and forty thousand. The Superin-
tendent of the census says, that on this &C.
count South Carolina will return six repre-
'sentativcs under the appointment for the next
ten years, whereas if California were entitled
to two members, South-Carolina would lose
the benefit Of her position, which is over
twenty-four thousand, after allowing for
five representatives. When the bureau shall
receive the full returns from California, the
Secretary Of the Interior will, under the law,
mako tic appointment of representatives,
and inform the respective State Executives Of
the same.
The Mexican Minister now here, Sonor
De LA Rosa, will it is said, resign his post
and leave for Mexico next month He has
been elected Governor of Tueatecas, and ac-
cepts the Office This is one of the States
which, it is supposed, will be involved in the
revolution nog\in progress, and will form a
portion of the PROJECTED new Confederation

The failure Of JACOB LITTLE & Co., Of
New York, astou4d 5 the public. But ii
would seem that We have here experience
enough as to the chances and mischances Of
stock speculation, to render such an event
very probable, if not certain. This failure
will involve the failure of many smaller op
orators
1t appears, according to an estimate lately
made, that the amount Of gold received from
California is hundred aud thirty millions
But at the present time, gold forms no par
of the ordinary currency in New-York anC
New-Engl as every one who has latcl,
travelled that was must have noticed. The,
have in circulation neither gold, nor silver
nor city bank paper, nor any paper readil,
convertible intospecie. The currency consist
of small notes of country banks, which, ifyol
take them at one corner, will be repudiatcd i
you offer them at the next When thepres
ent policy Of country banks, whose issues ar
to be based on stocks, shall be more full,
carried out, the precious metal will disar
pear entirely as currency.
