Correspondence o. iHe IfeP oiitutS Dec
A GOODNESS BETWEEN UNITED STATES MIN
lister GApspEN AND SANTA ANNA.-DoMEsTIC
TROUBLES OF TIE MeIic0, Oct D,
lS5l.-The Mexican government is just now ON
terms of marked GOODNESS with the entire diplo-
matte body, and particularly with your, or rather
our, minister, Mr.. Gadsden
The cause of this difficulty is question of ct
iquette unskfully aggra, ated by Santa Anna
aud his Minister of Foreign Affairs. 1t is not
worth while entering into minute details. Suf-
fceit, that u grand ball being announced to take
place on the eth uiimo, at the Hall OF the TX
change, his Exceency expressed his desire to
appear in uniform, and II circular was transmit
ted to the several diplomatic Representatives.
questing them To wear their full costume.
The Foreign Ministers declined the request, al
legng that the bnll was private one,and did not
present official character, and that their APP
pearance in uniform WAS therefore neither obi
gatory nor agreeable. Great excitclaent follow
ed The President swore he would not attend
the ball. The public tunctonarles and employ
were forbidden to GO; and, in short, the ball
was not given, but in its stead there was Soiree
dansante. such usually takes place,and where
uniforms are never worn.
The other difficulty, which concerns Mr.. Gads
Cen alone, is somewhat more serious. You will
perceive by the papers, tina, on the occasion of
the teteS of the 9th ult decree was issued
commanding general illumination under pen
atty of n heavy fine. This was n most tyranni
cal order. As no exception was made IN favor
of foreigners, Mr.. Gndsdcn behold in this decree
a slight east upon the dignity and prerogativcs of
his countrvmen. Consequently he addressed
them u circular in which he stated that they were
not bound by the decree of the government, and
might illuminate their houses not they
should think best.
Not content with this semi official protest, Mr..
Gadsde wrote TO Bonl,a informing him of what
he had done and on the day of the tete the Amer
lean minister neither Illuminated his dwelling nor
displayed his eountrs flag.
Mr.. Bonila replied to MIR. Gadsden in sharp
note, in which, am told, he considered the com
mumcation of Mr.. Gnde len as offensive and inSuI
ting. Here matters stand. All that Is positive
" known is that Santa Anna and his cabinet are
excessively irritated at the conduct of MIR. Gads
den.
The disposition of Santa Anna to return to Tur-
baco has produced quite domestic quarrel
Madame his wife, VOWS she will never consent
again to leave til country; nor have all his han-
dishments and caresses induced her to revoke her
decision. According to the Mexican, law "A wife
is not bound to follow her Spouse beyond the from
tier, and if Madame Santa Anna persists H. :. +.
must consent to remain or TO depart unsoothed
by the presence of the companion of his fortunes.
This is the current gossip,and is generally beciv
ed.
General La Taga. accused of being AN accom-
plice of Raeusset, was arrested and taken to MAJ
allan. Having been liberated ON parole, he fed,
and at the last accounts had not been retaken.

CoUNTERFEIT CHAMPAaHE.--A trial in New
York has just brought out some singular facts
touching the manufacture of Newark cider into
the choicest brands of champagne. Empty
champagne bottles are bought at the hotels and
other places, the labels are ingeniously initiated
and the whole finishing and packing are in exact
resemblance to the genuine article. The etferve-
-cence is given to the cider by forcing air into
the bottles. The spurious champagne is sold in
great quantities to the hotels and dealers, aud
the quantity of it drank, it is said greatly ex-
cceds that of the genuine Importation.
