Annexation of Mexico.

The annexation Of Mexico is no idle dream
We have reason to believe that powerful league
is now forming throughout that unfortunate coun-
try to effect this result. The sections contiguous
to our soil ripe for revolt at any moment when
the scheme shall be sanctioned by the active NOV
ers in the interior. In the present disorganized
condition of our sister republic many men who
secretly favor annexation united in the recall of
Santa Anna. They concluded that his energy
backed by an Obedient military, could save the
land from anarchy and the sway of guerillas
They thought that his presence would secure a
lull III the fierce storm that was already breaking
around them. Many suppose, and with some
reason, that Santa Anna himself is not opposed to
annexation. True, he banislled Arista, alleging
as reason his revolutionary tendencies; but San
ia Anna is ambitious. If he favors union with
the United States he must assume the initiative;
he must conduct the negotiations; he must himself
achieve tho glorious consummation. Besides,
Arsta is not man of very vigorous intellect, and
Santa Anna might with much proprety conclude
that his leadership would fail to combine the
strength of the land to accomplish SO excellent
object. We believe that no long period will
elapse ere Mexico will knock at our door; she
cannot exist in national capacity much longer.
No binding cement connects the States together.
Earring and discord is heard from one end Of the
domain to the other On the outskirts hover tribes
OF remorseless Indians, who sweep through the
settlements with impunity Each crevice of the
mountains ID gorged with freebooters who dash
down upon the plains. They carry in their right
hands carnage. As as one daring political
leader is disposed Of another springs up in his
place to distract and paralyze the public mind
Tho treasury is empty, and starving officials ca-
NOR for change. Growing creditors surround the
capitol They CANNOT be appeascd, for every
source of public revenue is pledged, and Mexico
owes one hundred and twenty millions of dollars
There is no power in Santa Anna to resurrection
ize his country. We say strong annexation bvsr
pcrvades Mexico. Her pride is humblcd by the
very people whose prowess she affected to despse.
Az the naughty beauty who in an hour of passion
has YIELDED up her virtue. and then humbly be-
seeches an alliance with her destroyer, 80 will

England may have 10 that island. Servi would

We will not speculate uPan tho curious
oomp,cmiss sader which the right II prayer h
to be oemmsasd inss the right Of anshoraes for

tensts result in the acquisition of a coal depot;

to 90 to war with Greece for the injustice done
our citizen, DR.. KING. It however affords nm
opportunity Of realizing the inaugural assurance
that citizens of the United States shall be pro-
tected in foreign countries.
We see no immediate reason therefore that
the United States should in any manner inter
fsre in the general war with which Europe
seems 70 be threatened. We have fair op-
por.unity for just neutrality, in which our
commercial interests may properly derive any
advantages which present themselves in the
carrying trade fur the belIigerents. In the
event however that Russia should implicate us
in any manner, we beg leave to remind the
Administration that she has certain possessions
north Of $40 40, which would be very useful
to IN for the purposes Of fishing, trading, trap
ing, and furnishing lumber for our badly tim
bored possessions on the Pacific. They would
in connection with the coal depot and har-
Dor Of Servi. greatly aid our naval and com
mercial marine cruising in foreign seas. A

WASHINGTON:
FRIDAY MORNING, JULY Is, 1853.


The Presidsnt at New Xerk.
We are informed by telegraph that the PaE-
s.pEnr and suite reached there yesterday morn
ing, and were received with enthusiastic de-
monstrations Of welcome. The PRESIDENT was
escorted by an immense military and civic pro-
cession TO the Crystal Palace. During the
movement Of the procession heavy shower Of
rain and hail fell:
New YoRK, July IA, 12a p, m-lhe fRksI-
DENT and suite arrived here about ten o clock tins
morning. They we're greeted with a salute Of
twenty -one guns from the Battery. Salutes were
also fred from several vessels in the harbor and
from Governor and Bedloe's Islands.
At IN early hour the whole population Of our
city, together with the vast number Of strangers
who have been drawn hither, appeared to be out
and moving. Many of the stores are closed, and
business pretty much suspended. rs
Mayor WEsrERyRLr met the PRESIDENT and
his party in the Garden, and babe them welcome
to the city of New York in a brief and appropri-
ate speech, to which his Excellency replied in a
very happy manner On concluding his remarks,
he proceeded to review the military, which is out
in full force and makes imposing appearance.
The procession then proceeded en- route for the
Crystal Palace. 1t is immense, numbering in all
probability one hundred thousand persons. The
streets through which it passed were literally
thronged with human beings, of all ages, sexes,
sizes, and colors.
The doors and windows of the houses were COM
pletely filed, mostly with ladies, who signifed
their appreciation and welcome by waving white
handkerchiefs. 1t is, without doubt, one of the
most gorgeous and imposing spectacles ever be-
fore seen in this city, perhaps in the country
Flags and banners flying all over the city. Peo-
pie vending their way to the Crystal Palace by
thousands in every avenue leading thereto 1t is
now crowded for squares on the outside.
The opening exercises at the Palace commence
at one o'clock p. m. They will not probably close
before four clock in the afternoon.
There have been some rowdy demonstrations
among the disorderly persons ON the outside, but
thus far all has passed off well and free from ac-
cident. There was quite heavy shower of rain
between 10 and II o'clock
The PRESIDENT looks much faded, though his
health is good
CRYSTAL PALACE, 81 p. m.--Thc Palace is
well filled but not crowded. Many distinguished
strangers are present. Among the late arrivals
are General ScoTT, the venerable Archbishop OF
New York. and General Wool.
The police are out in good order. The pro-
cession is now approaching the building, and there
is every to believe that the display will be
magnificent. The crowd outside the building is

AMERICAN SiLK.--At Newport, Kentucky, OPP
posite Cincinnati, there is an unpretending silk
factory, which will hereafter be memorable in the
history of American industry. 1t is carried on by
Messrs. Jones & Wilson, who employ some half
dozen more laborcrs, with FIVE looms and some
$50 spindles, consuming annually several hundred
weight of raw silk. The manufacture is directed
by Mr.. Wilson, while Mr.. Jones, who is of the
Quaker persuasion, and is universally known rs
Friend Jones, sells the products. These are
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES, cravats, vestings, and plain
and plaid dress silks As far as possible raw silk
of American growth is used in the factory, but
the imported article has to be relied on to make
out q supply. The raw silk raised In Ohio, In
diana, and Kentucky, when tolerablc care is used ;,
is not surpassed by any in the world, being equal
to the best Italian, (Which Is all consumed in
Europe,) and better than any imported into this
country. This is owing to advantages of soil and
climate, which imparts peculiar ustre and strength
Of fibre, and cannot fail, In time, to make the
United States one of the greatest silk-prowing
countries in the world. For the best nativereeled
silk they pay rs to IS so per pound while the
price OF the best imported does not exceed S4 SO.

''That it will prove creditable, as whole, we

Governor General Of Canada, the Earl Of Files

sion. Of the extent and character Of the goods to
be displayed, it is, as yet, impossible to speak
with confidence, but enough is known to make it
certain that many truly beautiful. specimens will
attract and delight the eyes of the VISITORS
The New York Times says:
"The public probably are not aware of the i'm
mense amount of goods which have already been
introduced into the Crystal Palace. We under
stand that over 1900 packages have already been
received; that over 400 more are in the custom
house, waiting to be passed; that 700 or 300 more
are known to be on board ships already in the
harbor; and that large number, of which no
accurate estimate, of course, can yet BIO made,
are on their way across the sea. Probably not
more than onc-third of the articles intended for
the exhibition have yet been introduced into the
building"
