It is reported that private adyiees re-
ceiyed in Washington represent the political
condition of Mexico as worse than is reported
in the Published accounts, and the next advi-
ces thence are looked for with deep anxiety by
the Mexican legationin that city.

seS- 1t is now understood. in Washington,
that the Administration, during the sitting Of
the Constitutional Convention in Kansas, had a
secret agent engaged in advising its members,
and through whom portions, if not the whole,
of the schedule, as published, were dictated by
the Executive. There is stated to be also,
abundant evidence that. instead of singing
their names 70 MI engrossed copy of the con-
silt ton, the memh. rs of. the eoavenio on placed
their signatures toa blank sheet of parchment
which could be ppepded to any document at
leisure.

MoNMoUTH COURTS.

We give below a list of the cases that have
been disposed of thus far at the present Term
of our County Courts. We observed at the
bar on Monday last, Hon. VIM. l.. Dnyton.
He was not present at the opening of the
Term, an omission on his part which has not
occurred for many years. This was owing to
his engagement in the Court of Errors, on the
Donnelly case. Judge Nevius, also, who, even
since we can remember. has been. a punctual
attendant at the opening of our Courts, has
filled to visit US this Term.
