The dificuity OF any solution of the Mexican ques
ton IL very greSk Placed midway between the Oc-
cidental and oriental worlds separating the Atlantic
and Pacific coceans-occupyng the position of anG ther
Egypt-it is however, for the interests of mankind
that the two shores, or at least the narrower and
more passablc portions should be under the rule AM,
authority OF the same government, otherwise the OBJ
staclss to transit will be increased To the people OF
the great valley of the Mississippi, now in
separately connected with the wealth Of the
Pacific, a route across Mexico must always
be an OBJECT of paramount Importance and it is
not therefore to be wondered at thati the Ameri-
can government pay zach underwriting attention to
the route that might so easily be formed across the
ambitious President Fillmore has always enforced
the rights alleged to have been acquired by his
c0untrymen under what is called the Garay grant
ever the moderate and philosophical Mr.. Everett
has adopted the doctrine Of expansion and it is
not difficult to feresee that under the forthcoming
presidency of the bolder General Pierce that ques
tion will in medately rise in interest Hence it is
that in ref to that Presidency, the importance
OF stale government being at once established
in Mexico beo ONES SO pressing.
But with the avowed designs Of the United States
on Mexico, an with the present determination Of
the inhabitants of the Mississippi to acquire easy
route to the Pro c; in the of such dangers
as now environ that republic and disturb its tran
quillity; looking to the important position country
situated must ereater play in the intercourse be-
tween the West an the East; and recognising the
fact that either tlrr ugh Mexico Central America
the relations Of Chin "a and Japan, to the rest
OF the world must ry soon undergo great change
: there can hardly be question of more general in
teres either to Europe or America than the tendency
of passing occurrences in that country
For conquest or arm lexation, Mexico is probably
too populous and too extensive. By degrees the
United States will no tdoubt, encroach further and
further on its terrtories stripping them artchokes
eaten leaf By leaf But the acquisition Of the
no conquests Of countries retending to selfgovern
ment. In California, ils6s ed, they got a desert
which has turned out an E Dorado. But in Mexico
there arestA left upwards OF. even millions Of people,
of different doubt, bN none friendly
to the Americans. Religio a, language, habits,
manners pride and vanity, all enormous difficulties
have to be overcome in Mexics'; and though Ame-
RIGA will, we may be sure, keep the acquisition Of
that country steadily in view, ankee annexation is
not the immediate danger which threaters Mexico.
It's urgent difficulty is that of establishing any form
of government that can be depen led upon Cor twelve
