Mexico.

In another column of the Union may be
found the message OF President Aris.a to the
Mexican Congress, convened in extraordin-
AIRY session 10 deliberate upon the alarming
condition OF the republic, and, if possible, to
avert the calamitiss which menace its exis-
istance. With every inducement 10 magni-

and taint Of official corruption; the intoler-

ing ruin broken only by the fitful violence Of
domestic insurrection or border forays-un-
der this unexampled accumulation Of cslam-
tiles it is too evident that the Mexican re-
public must soon sink. There is no vigor in
the nation to bear up uuder the crushing bur-
den; the principle Of validity is decayed; the
source Of life itself is stagnant and corrupt.
When men have lost their manhood, when
the voice Of justice and law is unheeded,
the promptings Of patriotism depressed, and
the principles of morality extinct, the decay
Of the Stale is fastening to an inevitable dis
olution.
To sggravate the perils its position, the
Mexican republic is threatened with the
wrath both OF England and of France. She
isindebted to them--they demand payment;
she hasno money and no credit--they are in
exorable, and ynesnce coercion. To meet
this pressing emergency the Mexican Con-
gress was convened in extraordinary session
on the 18th of October. Just at this painful
junctNre the effort of the Mexican govern
ment are embarrassed by the depredations
OF the Indians and the ravages of successful
rebellion. But yesterday we announced the
defeat OF a portion Of the Mexican army sent
10 suppress revolt.
