As / leave for Acapulco to morrow send you
such items Of news current in the capital,
trusting they win reach you in time to be Of service
Within the past week the probabilities and possible
Titles of q coup d'Gtat, a la Louis Napoleon, have
been openly discussed only in the public prints
but in the cafes and places Of public resort ana ~
is not little surprising to remark the strengh
Of the party in favor Of such measure IL Is true
that the application Of the government for extra
ordinary power" met with signal defeat, but the
VOTE nevertheless indicates that there is party in
Congress favorable TO it.
For some time past negotiations ave been pend
ing between the United States and Mexico in re-
gard to the Tehuantepec treaty, and to the Next
can claims for indemnity, arising out of the Indian
dep,edatons on the Texas frontier. All attempts,
however, TO make the Mexican Congress recognise
the former have proved fruitless while the govern
Dent at Washington seems equally indisposed to
counter ance the emo fmous claims which have al
ready been forwarded for payment In the mean
time, Arista, conscious of the slippery tenure by
which he holds his power, and fearing his own
throw in the threatened enforcement Of the Garay
grant, has proposed to Mr.. Letcher the idea of
a coup d'etat, if the United States government
will guarantee to him the payment of six millions,
on condition that he declares himself dictator, des
troys the obnoxious article In the treaty OF Guada
Iupe Hidalgo, restores the rights Of the Tehuante-
pee Company, modifes the tariff, adopts liberal
system Of public education, overthrows the existing
system Of peonage. &c.
This proposal, it is understood, has received the
sanction Of Mr. Fillmore's administration, and is,
therefore, the basis Of the discussions agitatng
Che capital 1t is rumored moreover, that the ap-
pointment of Mr. Larrainzar as Minister to Wash
Sngtop, had direct reference to this object, because
II is well known that Larrainzar the leader of
powerful faction in Mexico, Of whom it was necessa
ny to dispose. 1t is therefore, more than probable,
In the present exhausted condition Of the public
treasury and in view Of the helpless state in which
the late Congress has left the country, that IL
reaches you some stirring scenes will have been
enacted. The reasons now palpable for Arista's
recent application to Congress for the conference Of
extraordinary power.

5HK CRISIS IN THE REPUBLIC-wHAT is TO BE DONE
WITH POOR MEXICO?
from the New Orleans picayune; june %
The Mexican Congress adjourned the 2lst
ult., we have stated, without making any provi-
zion for the necessary resources which the admins
tration must have at its command to carry on the
government during the interim That is, the Mexican
is placed in the predicament that we
imagine the government Of the United States
would be in if the United States Congress adjourned
sine die without making any~of the usual appro-
priations.
The Mexican administration fully appreciates the
condition of the distracted country which it is called
on to govern without means. THIS will bs seen by
tho note addressed by the cabinet to the Chamber
of Deputies, just before its adjournment, and by
President AIista's speech at the adjournment We
transete the Cabinets communication, as follows:-
Already, several occasions the government has
made known to the National Legislature the yertab,e
situation of the republic and to day a. the moment
ef,he 6na adjournment it again asks the august Cham
1ers 10 take decided step whereby to rescue the
government. from the difficult position in which it will
Do placed without powers resources and to save the
nation the necessary consequences of such crisis
Tie measure demanded might consist in the simplif
the action of the in circumstances
or case which might arise during the va
Government Council with special committees to be
named by Chamber both the resolutions necessi-
tatedsuch resolutions to be put in execution under the
responsibility OF the ministry
The Cabinet does not misunderstood the position in
which places itself in demanding measure which seems
to embrace en- increase OF the powers Of the Executive
but does not hesitate to accept this position because
that reality IL is not the ministry which will have to
exercise these increased powers and further that in
taking this step it Accompanies its imposed duty-to
hesitate at personal sacrifice for the safety oil the
county.
This communication, signed by Messrs. Ramirez,
Fonsecca, Esparaa, and Robbez, was referred to an
appropriate committee, which Immediately rendered
report. 1t concluded thus:-
There Is no reason why the demand made to day by
the mt, for extraordinary powers, Should be
granted.
The report was Immediately taken into coasidera-
ton and discussed; long aud animated debate fol-
lowed, and the committees report was finally
adopted by vote of seventy four yeas TO thirteen
nays 1t was thought that after this decided check,
the Ministry would resign, but it did not.
The Presidents address to the Congress, at the
last moment Of its session, was as follows
