MEx1co-The Dario de la Habana contains
news which we had not yet received here Its
latest advices from the city of Mexico are to the
lst, and from Vera Cruz to the 9TH instant
The government had suspended all communl-
cations with Jalisco, and has ordered the troops
The general impression is that the government
of Arsta is at an end. His ministry is comPo'
sed of men who are very unpopular, and, on the
opening of Congress, complete change must
take place. The man who will most probably
be President is Senior Munoz Ledo the present
Governor of Guanajuata, who enjoys high rep
utation as a scholar and politician.
The country continues agitated by sedlt'ous
movements. Half dozen departments seem IN
open insubordination. At Orizaba, at Guadala-
lara, at Mazatlan, pronunciamentos have been
declared Feeble attempts have been made TO
suppress them, but the Government is at once
so weak and so unpopular that no energetic
means can be employed.
Congress has assembled in extra session Tor the
purpose of taking into consideration measures tor
the re-establishment of public order. With the
exception of decree greatly abridging the Ii,
berty of the press, nothing of Importance had
been transacted at the last accounts.
Advices were received at Jalapa, on the 23d,
that the reinforcement of the National Guard
that left Perote, onthe 10th ultimo, for Oriza'
ba. had been met by the insurgents at Cerro
Gordo, and the entire body surrendered to the
insurgents after a short fight.
In the midst of the turmoil and confusion that
prevail throughout the country, the partlzans OF
Santa Anna are beginning to take heart We
see that at the pronunciamento at GuadalaJara
the following resolution was adopted:
ssThe nation invites General Antonio Lopez
de Santa Anna to return to the Republic, that
he may cooperate in sustaining the federal sys'
TENS, and re-establish order aud peace."-N. o.

D1eEcr TRADE.-0n our first page we publish
a paragraph from the Baltimore American, an
nounelnc that arrangements have been made IN
that c;ty for the purpose of making advances to
Southern planters who are desirous of promoting
direct trade with the continent of Europe.
OF course until the circulars are issued, we
cannot know the details of the proposed plan.
If # is only to establish Baltimore brokerage
nnon Southern exports, we do not think the plan
viii ba verv popular with the friends Of direct
;mnortstion at the South For that matter the
same business could be carried on in New lork,
a copnle Of hundred miles farther North, with
equal advantage to the South. Political conslde
rations can never influence the channels OF com
merce, and the simple fact that Baltimore Is IN a
slave State, in which a free soil ticket is up tor
the Presidential election, would give no advan-
taees to Southern trade which New ork docs
not give What we understand by direct trade
is a Direct interchange Of the rich staples OF the
South for European supplies. This should be ac-
complished directly to and from the South, free
from the experse of coast freights and second
hand commissions both ways. In a word the
business should be conducted upon legitimate
commercial principles, in our own Southern ports
Savannah and Charleston are central Southern
sea.ports, having access by railroad to the vast
Inferior. to and from which this foreign commerce
must flow. These ports are therefore the points
at which the direct trade of which we have heard
so mucb of late should be conducted. Here IS
where the experiment should be made and If
there are capitalists who are disposed to make
the venture. they will do well we think, to con-
slider the important advantages OF central &C,
cess;ble Southern location, for the transaction OF
direct Southern trade.-Savannah NeacS.

which all should practice, and haste which
they should avoid. We should always make
the most of our time. Lost time can never

Childish Simplicity.

the Providence Journal, relates the following
incident. He was an excellent swimmer,
and, apprehensive that the boat would soon
go down, she being nearly covered with wa
Ter, swan off some distance, with n child on

Hurrah for Scott" !"

A correspondent of the New London
Chronicle, in giving racy sketch of re.
cent trip in the rail cars, adds the following
anecdote. 1t is rich:
Straws, they say, indicate the direction of
the wind, and must record little incident
which occurred in the railroad car, while
passing through the State of Delaware on
my way hither. The train had been stopped
to await the passing of another train soon
expected from another direciion-and while
in this suspense, Sin the dark and troubled
night which was upon u.s. one of the pas.
sengers vociferated at the top of his voice,
|Hurrah for Scott!' Again, the second and
third time he repeated it, but 10 response
was heard from any quarter. Then, said
he, 'as many as are in favor of Gen. Scott
for President, will make it manifest by ris-
ing But not even rustic of the feet was
heard, nor was there single man seconded
the proposition; and was almost disposed
10 think, that as no one responded TO the
call but the man himself, the genius, Nor
pheus, had entranced our whole company ;
but while thought was fitting across my
brain, the mover, as if determined TO know
whether sleep or Scott was the cause of such
marked silence, altered his notion aud said,
"as many as are in favor of Gen. Pierce for
President, will please rise.' Whereupon
euery man rose an his seat, and three cheers were
given for Pierce, King, and the Granite
State.
