come forward in the cause of commerce, humanity
and good government above all, we presume,
for the security of British creditors of Mexico-to
putt stop to the disgraceful state of things lin.
stantly and without interfering in the slightest de-
gree with public liberty"
The last intelligence from Mexico is that Zuloaga
relies upon alliance with the friends of Santa Anna
TOR assistance and that several agents of the ex.
dictator bad passed through Havana en- route for
Vera Cruz Whatever may be the issue of the ap-
preaching crisis, we have confidence that any
ruler can be found in Mexico to reconcile the ambi
tious clergy, the hostile military cheftains and the
ignorant and fierce populace Even should the
United States tske sides with any party and estab-
lish Protectorate it must maintain it's possession
permanently, in order to secure continued good or.
der This would be. tantamount to forcible appexs.

that neither subjugation nor Protectorate enters
into the mission and purposes of confederated Re-
public, constituted like ours. Intervention NAV be.

which his friends were constantly making,
until be had reached a tolerably advanced
age, and he himself began to feel the need
of, or, at least to have new ideas Of the
comfort of being nursed with wolnan's
gentle care Shortly after entering one Of
his circuits, maiden lady, also Of ripe
years, was strongly recommended to him,
and his friends again urged that he had
better get married, representing that the
lady named would probably not refuse to
acccp. him, Notwithstanding his reputed
ecceutricities.

THE WATERING PiACEs.-Last summer the
proprietors Of watering place hotels had their
eyes somewhat opened 10 the bad policy they
had been pursuing, in regarding only the profits
they could put into their purse from the bust
ness Of the season, and paying the very slight
est sort Of attention to the comfort, convenience
and pleasure Of their guests. But the falling of
in visiters to these places last year was attri-
buted more to the GOODNESS Of the summer and
the tightncss Of the money market than to its
real cause. IL requires pretty forcUse argu-
ment to convince landlords of watering place
hotels that the universal feeling among those
whom regard for fashionable habits induce
TO leave their comfortable homes in the city, and
10 put up at such establishments, is one Of dis
satisfaction aud disgust. The substitution Of
sufocating cells or attic pigeon holes, for hand
some, well ventilated bedrooms, may be tolerat-
ed for a short time under the pressure of fash.
ionable necessity; but common sense win make
itself felt at last: and when common sense is in
full operation watering place hotels as at pre-
cent conducted will have precious little bust
ness
Our correspondence some of which we pub
lished last week. and some Of which we publish
today while suggesting the historical know
ledge that fashionable tourists may acquire,
docs not give very aattering account Of
the prospects Of watering place establishments
Last year was bad This year is no better. And
next year win be still worse, unless hotel pro-
prietors come TO reason. When they can make
their guests feel 30 comfortable as not TO miss
and regret too much the comforts they have
left behind them at home, then they may have
reasonable grounds for expecting their houses
to be well paironized-- but not till then. The
financial difficulties of last year have dissipated
q Great deal Of fashionable nonsense. and among
