.ivew Yor/i papers to the 2d inst. were received yesterday. The following are extracts : N MExIM ~ ~~" NEW YORK, Ju1{E 26. Ex1 o-Accoun ts from Alvarado of the 27,h ult, confirm the intelligenc2 that the conspiracy at Mexico in favour of Iturbide had beei discovered, and ihe conspirators imnprisoned. The editor of the Baltimore Fcaeral Gazette, in his paper of Satturday, states that he has received, on the best authority, intelligence of a very agreeable nature relative to It exico, which had recently put on a calm and set- tled appearance; the pssions which had for some time agitated the country having been materially if not wholly tranquillized, and the asperities of party fined down and softened. The general Govern- ment had become more fixed and powerful, and its administration had been placed in the hands of men distinguished for learning, talent, energy, and a resolute hostility to Spanish domination. But swhat may be considered as of still greater importance, the finances of Mfexico had assumed a prosperous appearance; a large loan had been negotiated in England, the terms of which had been ratified by the Mexican Congress, and the securities arising therefiom, to a large amount: had actually been lodged with a respectable house in the United States. 'hlY, it must be acknowledged, does not offer a very flattering pros. pect to the self-created Emperor lturbide, who, we think, would not have been so rash in embarking in his new enterprise had he been aware of the situation of his friends, or of the flouri3hing condition of public afiTirs under tne management of the present Government. The step he has taken, even though approved of by the lHoly Alli. ance, cannot fail to prove abortive when it is considered that it is the interest of Great Britain to oppose every attempt to bri4g about a chiange. Not only haventhe capitalists of England embarked vast sums of money, but her merclants have formed such extensive con- nexions with Al exico, that the Governme'nt will consider it incumbent on them to guard tlese interests, by counteracting, which they pos. sess tire power to do, every attempt to excite a civil war in that country. " PIRATES.-It is now ascertained that the piratical schooner lately carried into Honduras, and which was reported to have been owned in the Uni ted States, is a West India builtvessel, commanded by a Canadian Frenchmau, whose papers represented her as belong. ing to St. Thomas's. The vessel has been condemned, and the crew, 12 in number, sent to the West Indiec for trial. It having been suspected that this was not the whole of the pirate's complemetnt, an armed party proceeded to one of the Keys, where they succeeded in making 11 men prisoners, one of whom, a negro, tbrned King's evi- dence, and stated that the vesscl he belonged ts (an English coaster) ,had been captured by them, near the i!losquito Shore, and aU on I bo4rd murdered, except himself, and that his life was saved in con- cequence of his joining the pirates. These men were in irons at Honduras. "JUNE 28.
