FoREIGN HELP FOR MExICo.-The

rumor that he has made overtures toward
an alliance with some of the European pow
ers. There is such rumor in Madrid
The Didrio ESPanol, Madrid journal says:
at appears that the new CHEF Of the
Mexican Republic has claimed Spanish pro-
lection as the only means of making front
against the invasion of the United States,
the danger of which Is every day more ap-
parent ard for preserving what remains of
that rich country against the conquest of lis
powerful neighbors. .4ccording 10 the rer-

communicated 10 The Cabinets Of London and

ably received"
The editor then goes on to say, in this
matter it will be necessary to proceed with
much tact and caution, 'taking care both of
interests in America and in our island OF
Cuba" Ell Hraldo another Madrid Jour
nal, does not credit this, and republished it
only as curious story. Ell Uamor Publ
co has heard that such was Santa Anna's
thought, and that it had been communicated
to London and TO Paris. The other Madrid

Hear it:--
THIRD DisTRicr--BoGus DEMocRATic
CoNvENTIoS.--This assemblage took place
according to arrangement at the time ap-
pointed, and all was done as arranged -
The Democracy would have nothing to do
with ii; and Fox Jackson having traded
with the Bogus Wings 10 make him dis
trict to stiit him, and having traded with his
brother Antics for a clear track. he was
unanimously nominated. It will make a
ticket of its own on the notification anti Ben
ton principle, and then there will be Wing
ticket and democratic ticket; and each Of the
three will have its own appropriate support
and IN which, according to all reports from
the district, the Democratic will come out
foremost, the Wing second, and the bogus
Anti third best. Fox will endeavor to raise
the old hackneyed cry of a regular nomina
tion, and that Whig will be elected if YOU
dont SUCK TO 1t. This will be worthy OF
Fox. He has been trader with Wings, or
whoever would trade with him, all his life.
He refused to meet the Democracy in con-
vention at the organization Of that body and
at the senatorial election-always refusing
TO go into convention, when he could no,
cheat and win the game. He negotiated his
present district with TIE Wings, and sold
them district 10 purchase it. What right
has such trickster and trader 10 talk about
Wings? A real Wing is friend TO the
Union; and so far preferable to a nuhfier.
A real Wing is in favor of the Central Pa
citic road, which no nullifer is. In answer
to his Whig danger we have to remind him
of his eternal trades with the Wings, and
that an honest Wing is preferable to him.

for the sale of which heis the agent In the coun,
ties Of Augusta, Rockbridge, Rockingham and
HIGHLAND. It is an imperial octave volume, OF
more than twelve hundred pages, illustrated by
seventy maps and seven hundred ,engravlngs.-
The price is S., or bound in two volumes, 81
Take it all in all, and it is the most valuable and
universally interesting work of which we have any
knowledge. 1t is precisely the book we desired
to have-a dictionary of universal history, I'D
which may be easily found the substance of every
important event that has occurred since the re-
collection of man." The engravings and maps add
greatly to the value of the work and in reference
to STYLE it is only necessary TO say that the sa-
thor is glorious old ''PETER FARLEY" S@bscnp-
tons will be received in the Corporations OF Staun-
ton, by Mr. JAMES F. PATTERsoN.-S taun. Spec
This work is the result of great labor and re-
search and is valuable contribution to history
We close our notice by remarking, that the work
displays not only Mr. Goodrich's accustomed In
dustry, good taste, and talents for description, but
high degree Of ability as philosophical hstorl-
Observation-Disclosures.
We cannot too highly commend it as one OF the
most correct, complete, and faultless historRcai
compilations that has ever come under our ooser-
walton; and book that will vastly increase the

There is no work extant, which is better calcu-
lated to meet and satisfy general want than this,

in historical matter it must be invaluable, forming

The work is illustrated by a variety OF engra-
wings, and what is Of still more Importance, 1t IS
supplied with abundance fneat stylograPhic maps,
ancient and modern, which place the geography
of every country directly under the eye of the
reader. The work displays the same persplculty
of arrangement. with the simplicity and vigor OF
style which characterize all Mr. Goodrich's wri.
tings. 1t is also enlivened with sound practical
observations, and is marked, as far as we have
seen it, with that elevated moral and religious
sentiment which has won for the author the spe-
cia confidence of the rightihinking portion Of the
American people.-Boston Courier

work, says, before long no library will be thought
