MEXICO - SANTA ANNA-ANSExATIoN. - The
late experiment Of General Cevallos in turning
the Mexican Congress out of doors, la Cronl-
well has inaugurated, as the supreme authority
in Mexico. the managers Of the late revolution
ary movements for the overthrow Of the govern
ment. Now. what is to be done General
Uraga was sent for to come to the aid of the
usurping party at the capital in putting things
into shape again, as far as possible with the
incurable anarchy with which our poor. helpless,
and most wretched neighbor is afflicted.
But the hopes OF the revolutionists, it seems.
centre upon Santa Anna, aud his expected re-
turn to the country. Perhaps, for the time
being. he may be their very best man. He is
dictator in power, and does not stop at trines
Arista was too amiable and weak. Santa
Anna understands the Mexican character much
better. His policy Of keeping his army about
him. and of making everything subservient to
the army. and Of grinding the people to the
dust with taxes and forced contributions, ap-
pears TO suit the taste Of the Mexican much
better than the weak and amiabIe policy OF
Arista Santa Anna is man Of very
considerable abilities. Even as o soldier he
las been moderated, when we consider the
miserable materials Of which he has had to
mako up the staff and the rank and file of his
armies; and we doubt not that his superior
talents - civil. diplomatic, and military az
compared with other Mexican leaders are at
The bottom Of his popularity.
There is one thing VIC may also mention, In
connection with the expected return Of Santa
Anna, Of the very highest Importance, not only
60 Mexico, but to US and the world at large.
1t is the question Of annexation. The overtures
which he made to Gen. Scott. while in occupa-
ton Of the Mexican capital, contemplating the
annexation Of the whole republic to the United
States Of the North, (as they call us in Mexico }
should not be forgotten. We have no authority
to say that Santa Anna has changed his views
on this subject He is the owner of several i'm.
mcnse estates in Mexico. They would be forth
with enhanced teniold in value with the annex
alton Of Mexico to this Union Santa Anna has
had enough Of Mexican glory 1t is poor stuff.
California gold Is much more desirable But
il he in favor Of annexation! Let US wait
| till he returns. lie il either for us or
against us, and in the pay Of the emissarics
| Of England. France, and Spain. His re-
| turn, one way or the other will very likely
| soon bring the destiny Of poor degraded HcSi-
co to crisis. But We rather suspect that Santa
| Anna IS in favor Of amexaton; and VINO knows
but that. upon his return to power, if he does
return. hc may provoke another rupture with
our government IN order to afford us the oppor-
] tunity fer oyerrunnng and annexing The whole

THr COINAGE BIIL--Congrcss has at last
done something thanks to Senator Hunter.
The passage of the Coinag bill is a good
beginning The provisions of the law are
very good. so far as they go; but they
do not go quite tar enough. The only new
coin adopted is the three dollar gold pieces;
thisw will be very convenient in making change,
but we want twelve shilling and two dollar
gold pieces. The circulation of such gold coin,
would have done away with the necessity for a
large amount of small silver change. A person
purchasing fifty cents worth Of any article, can
give three dollar gold piece, and receive a
two dollar and a-half gold piece in return
An operation similar to this, could be made with
two dollar and one and a-half dollar gold pieces.
However; we suppose it is better to be thankful
for what we do get from Congress, without
new Coinage bill does not provide for any
increase in the variety Of silver coin, but its
provisions are such that there will hereafter be no
scarcity Of small change. The depreciation in
the actual value OF silver coined after the LIST
Of June, 1853, without any reduction in the
market value, will put stop at once to
expectation; and if the mint turns out the new
coin as fast as its facilities will permit the
difficulties now daily experienced in trade will
be soon removed.
It is in contemplation, we understand, to
change the dollar gold con A new die has
been submitted to the Secretary Of the Treasury,
and some change will probably be made. 1t is
very inconvenient coin as it is. 1t is proposed
to enlarge the size, and have hole in the
middle, 50 Mat it can be easily distinguished
This would be decided improvement. We
shall have, before many years-even with the
slow progress made by Congress in providing
for the wants of our domestic or internal trade
one Of the most convenient coinage systems in
the world The issue of three cent pieces was
a very important and necessary movement.
and the issue of three dollar gold pieces will
add largely to the metallic currency of the
country. There is no better way to restrict the
circulation OF bank notes than to give the
people coin of convenient denominations. We
are not yet satisfied and shall continue to urge
upon Congress the Importance Of still greater
improvements in the gold and silver coinage Of
the country.
