CONDITION OF MEXICO.

Our sister Republic of Mexico is In wretchso
condition at present. Such things as law and
order are urknown, and everywhere the work OF
civil war engages the attention OF the people,
This we all know has been the condition OF that
country for wears. Without permanent gov
ernment. controlled by alawless and mercenary
banditti. she can hardly be called Nation.-
During the last session of Congress, Gen. Hous-
ton, of Texas, proposed the establishment OF
protectorate as the cnly means fer relieving our
neighbors from the sufferings and horrors of an
archy and civil war. The suggestion was then
received with bu. little favor. 1t Ii said, how
ever, that President Buchanan will recommend
the measure to the favorable consideration OF
Congress in his next message But this OF course
is nothing but mere rumor. The successftf
leader at the present time is demagogue named
.Juarez. who calls himself constitutionalist. OF
