GEN. SANTA ANNA IN MExIcG.-Gen
Santa Anna, on his arrival at Vera Cruz,
was conducted through triumphal arch
erected on the grand plaza, from whence
he was escorted to the Church, where a
solemn te deUm was performed. During
the night there were Examinations, fire
works and numerous serenades. On tie
following day he issued manifesto to
the nation, in which he assures the
MeXicans that he is resolved to devote
all bis energies to his country, and i'm
plores them to forget past differences
and rally to sustain him. H. begs his
enemies to be assured that he presents
the hand of friendship to them, and to
all the Mexican peoples; that he shall
cultivate relations of friendship with all
nations, though he will at all times up
hold the national honor. The army, at
whose head, he says. he placed himself
to repel an ''inimical INVASION" and
with which he says he has so often
fought, is also implored to listen to his
counsels, in order they may still have
country, national honor and a name
which they will not be ashamed to own.

EARLY WAEAr.-A specimen of
growing wheat, from the plantation of
the late Col Greene, on Hutchson's Is
land, opposite the city, was left at the
office yesterday. The stalks measure
some four feet, and the heads are full
of ripe grain. We should think that
in two weeks more 1t would be ready
to harvest. 1t was taken from a field
Of forty acres, all equally forward.

THE EXODUS TO THE FAR WEsT.-
There is a vast emigration to Oregon
and California, principally to the latter
State, the present season from the North
western States. The Illinois State Reg
lister says it is "sure that Ohio, Indiana,
and Illinois, will send as many beyond
the mountain this Year as in any prevl-
Gus year, and we hear of no falling off in
any other quarters" The Register
says:
A new feature in this movement west
ward is seen this season. Hundreds of
men who have made fortunes in Cali
tornIa, and returned here during last
fall and summer, are among those going
out, most of them taking fine trains of
wagons, cows, mules and horses, In
droves-nearly all purchased by money
obtained at the mines. Thus we see
that our people who sell these products
are sharing in the profits of gold dig
ging.

FROM MExlco.-Dates from the city
of Mexico to the 2Sth ult have been
received at New Orleans, from which
we gather the following additional
items:
A war of castes is said to be on the
eve of breaking out in Oajaca, on ac-
count of the proceedings Of Gov. Marti-
nez. All the arms in the capital of the
capital of the State, 1000 stand, had
been distributed to the different depart
men's. Bands Of Indians had appeared
in the capital crying death to the
whites"
A forced loan of 100000 had been
levied In Guanajuato by the Governor.
OF this sum $4,000 had been demand
ed from Senior Munoz Ledo, $4,000
from Godoay, and sSO,O00 from bur
goengotla.
The affair Of Senior Falconnet rela-
tive to bribing the deputies was making
much noise, and it was said that he was
preparing TO leave the republic. Fifty
two deputies had combined to prosecute
him.
In Durango the Governor offers a re-
ward OF 5000 for every head of an In
dian, and the same for each prisoner
killed or taken within the State.
Col. Cruz has been named chief OF
the Northern frontier. Three hundred
additional troops have been sent to his
