~ "tiSCELLAN1EOUS. S -J&WOILTANT FROM MEXICO. : Thsteamer Prince i arrived at the duihwest-Pass on the 31st ul'., and af -er placing on board asteamboat Mr. Par , bearer of' despatches foF this govern ' 4&ieut on her vay t-Pensacia. Below we copy what news he has di :ilged to the New Orleans Tropic: .-'We rergrtunateib hnvthg a free conggs"fkm with Mr. 'Perroit, from whom - .gaihered the fillowiug par'iculars, the most-important of which is his decided =cbnviction that all exristing difficulties be - 'teer -this Government and Mexico will bc amnickbly adjusted. The Mexicans begin ':.. -to think that the Uniteddtates are their best friends after all. rrest change in this respect has taken place within the last six weeks ! The improved feeling is sotnlmmon to all parties. It bag 'been brought about by the late difficulties with the french Minister on the one hand and the protest of the British Minister against the proposed revision of the Santa Anna contracts by the present Congress. In re gard in the British protest, it seems that the last Mexican Congress declared that the acts and contracts of Santa Anna should be revised and certain ones annull e.1- ''he-duty of revision devolved upon the present Congress. But the British Government, through its Minister, has no tifiud Mexico that it will hold her to the perfbrmance of all the contracts auJ agreements made with British citizens. Mexico, of course. is forced io yield with the best grace she can. The consequence 'ii, that-the revision which has been trans titted to the President for his sanction 'will probably ie retained, and thus flail of -becoming a law. These with the thou sand and one difficulties, that now con vulse Mexico to her very centre, all cows sbinu to set the people and the Govern ment in a more friendly position towards this country, The presses opposed to 'Government are fierce, even to malignity and a speedy revolution, with a over ;hro . of the powers that be, is expected daily. Parades, it it said, has several thousand troops within 120 leagues of the capital. all prepared for such events as may transpire. lerrera's power is dear ly held, and will he as brief in existence as it was brilliant in its origin. The ten or of the despatches is unknown. but they can be inferred from the above. The indemnity of which so much has ,been said since Mr. Shannon's return, it would appear Mexico has paid. Accor ding to the correspondence of our Gov erunment with its agents. the payment w as made on the27th of August; $844; where as a copy of the receipt certified by the United States Agent, bears date the 20tn 'September 1844. Mexico seems to have paid the indemuiiy in good faith and the amount, though it never fonnd its way in : to.tbe United States Treasury, must be ' paid therefrom to-the claimants. The Mexican Government have effected loan of half a million.

Commerce will rot in the harbors of ihe sea board.'-rade will be suspended itn the interior-t--he fairmner will exchange his plough-sha~re for a musket-the doors of the temple of peace will be closed, and - war will be the pretsiding genius-the pcrvadipg genius-the pervdin1gseti'l - - on.
