The correspondent of The Nep- Orleans Bee says:
There lie lit stirring at present, but grave events
looming in the future. Such is, 10 a word, al
epitome OF our political condition. In my last letter
stated that the seven millions of the Mesilla treaty
bad been expended 10 the last dollar. This almost
incrt dibe fact is now fully confirmed. The treasury
presents huge vacuum, and the means of filling il
so siffcult that Mr. Oozagarre, Minister of FL
nance, has resigped his Office in despair. do not
know if bis resr nation has been accepted or when
bis successor will be appointed. The seven millions
have ds8ppea AIRED without the slightest benefit TO the
country the currency has not been expended to the
value Of obolus. Business is exceeding, languid
aid money scarce. The whole amount went into the
Lands Of balf dozen socs jobbers 1t Is said that
the 100000 sent by II. s. E. in the last conducta,
was a slice Of the Mtsilla purchase money. think
this is more than probable.
OF the actual state of the revolution we know little.
Rumors prevail by the thousand, but nothing positive
is ascertained.
The position of affairs is grave that Santa Anna
thinks the game lost and talks seriously of retiring to
Bis Hacienda at Encerro, which would be the certain
preliminary TO his fight from the Republic. His de-
parure would be considered taDtamOunt TO an absn-
dObment Of the supreme power, aud the day succeed
ing such event would witness revolution in the
City Of Mexico. The disposition Of santa Anna to
return TO 1urbaco has pro fuced quite domestic
quarrel. MadaIne his wife, VOWS she will never con-
cent again to leave the country, nor have all his
Establishments and caresses induced her 10 revoke
Der decision. According to the Mexican law, wife
is Lot bound TO follow her spouse beyond the frontier
and il NJ ad. Santa Abpa persists, III 5. K. must con-
sent ain, 10 depart unsoothed by the pres
euce OF the companion of his fortunes This Is the
current gossip, and is generally believed
The Mexican Government is just nov on terms OF
marked coldDess with the entire diplomatic body
and particularly with your, or rather, our Minister
MIR. Gadsden.
The cause of this difficulty is question of etiquette
unskillfuly aggravated by Santa Auns, and his Min
lister OF Foreign Affairs Is is wor while enter
ing into minute details. Suffice it, that grand ball
having been announced 10 take place nthe 9th ult
at the hall Of the Exchange, His Excelency expressed
his desire TO appear in uniform aud circular was
transmitted TO the several diplomatic representatives,
requesting them TO wear their full costume. Tbs
foreign ministers declined the request, alleging that
the bail was private one, ind did not present an
official character. and that their appearance in u0i-
form was therefore neither oblg atory agreeable
Great excitement followed. The President swore be
would not attend the ball. The public iunctoaafles
and employees forbidden TO go; and in short the
ball as hot given but in lite stead there was source
dansonte such usually takes place, and where uni
forms are never worn.
Tie other difficulty which concerns Mr. Gadsden
alone is somewhat more serious. You VIII perceive
by the papers that the occasion OF The tetcs oil the
9th ult decree was issued commanding general
illumination under penalty OF very neaVy nue.
This was most tyrannicdi order. AS no exception
war made in favor of foreigners, Mr.. 6au1eh oeneu
in this decree slight cast upon the dignity and pre-
rog,tives of his counrymen. Consequently he ad-
dressed them circular in which he stated that they
"a ere not bound by the decree OIL the Guvernmeps,
and might illuminate their houses or not, as they

protest, Mr.. Gadsden wrote to Bonilla, informing
him of what he had DONE and the day Of the tete
the American Minister neither Illuminated his dwell
ing nor displayed his country flag.
MIR. BoDilla replied to Mr. Gadsdenin sharp note,
in which am told he considered the communication
of Mr.. G. a. offensive and insulting. Here matters
stand. All that is positively known is, that Santa
Anna and bis Cabinet are excessively rritsted at the
conduct of Mr.. Gadsden.
