Wo haiccnnirifcd uill a f.ciitlc.uan who m lived from Mexico, in the Ann Fiir.a, yesterday, and who gives us muci. inicr-Mint; il formation not to bo oblninoil finm llio Mexican fnpers. Unsays that u p.opoiition was actually Hade in CongicM, u few dais before lie loft, to de clare war against (lie United State, on llio gionnd of the occupation of Nacogdoches and ae.iatnnce rendered the Tcxam. The proportion was under dUcns-ion when hu left, the icfiill ofcoiiife lie does not know, I" lllc belter opinion w.iMhat it would be icjccled by a large majority, all the reasonable members and ofli. cials being opposed lo il.fiieli as Toinel, Al.unan, Goroslka, and oll.es. The hostility l" llio Unilcd Suites is among the piicsts and their paili.ans. Our informant was in lh city of Mexico when Buslanientoai riled; no rejoicings took place, and his reception so far f.om being enlhnsiasl.c, was not even cordial. The uucclions of the people, gen orally, In the capital, and ihionghonl ihe country, arc strongly fixed on S.uua Ana, and our informant s.ijh llicre is no doubl thai llio moment he appears all party sulfa will subside, and all voices will unite in one glad shout of welcome. Husui.r.ente has no chance ofbeing elected to llio presidency, The elections of Ajunlamientos-sim-ihir lo our chaiter elections-were defend! in Oc toberor November by the Congie.-s ; the object was undoubtedly to give Saula Ana the benefit of failhcr lime, il being wry doubtful then whether he would be liberated; and our infoimant s.iis if lie (Santa Ana) does not aniieln season, llio presi dential election ilsdf will in nil piub.thilily bo do fencd; so unwilling aie ihey lo'cleet Uuslamente, even as a matter of necessity. General liavo had icsigucd the command of the army a thiid time, owing lo disappointment by I lie Goiermnenl in not fulfilling in pledges ; and this was occasioned by actual inability. The na. lioualTieasury was exhausted and b.inkinpl J and affairs generally in a w.elche.l condition. The commcicialcoinmunily was in a statu ofgieat des pondency, and a gieatmaiiy foreign icsidents wcio talking ofrio.-ing theii affaiis and coming away. Our informant thinks thai Santa A.ia will set himself against thu pi ie.-ts wheicver he can do so with safety, . ind lh.it hois sineeiely dcsiious lo unite all coull cling iule.esls and opinions, and cs tab' sh n government ih.it shall alliance iho welfare of the country. l.'nt he had gi eat difficulties to eon ten I with in, ihe Cougiess, which is composed principally of pi ic-ls nnil their p.irli..un, and it is probable- thai he will bo compelled lo sicld in ma ny things to lliulr inllucnce against his own inclina tions. Our in'brmant says that tho English in (In. cnecis very now or Ai I in Mexico especially w.tli the 4ovi riitncnl, and thai this influence: is exceedingly hostile lo Texas and in its in- , corporalion with llio United Stales, i Mr. Ellis did not come away v.vdiout his' past-ports, but Ihey were given to him very ' ungraciously. After waiting for thoiii ten i dajs, they vvcru sent to him lata in the eve. ning of the day pievious to that which was, fixed for his departure, when all his prepara- j tions were raade, bul our informant thinks 1 this delay was not owing to their unwilling- , ncss thut he should corao away, but rather to a disposition to treat him with incivility. J Coin. Advertiser, j Mission to Fiia.ici:. Rumor siiys, and J vvc credit her ladyship fur mice, that Gov j ernor Cass, our present able and uccotn. j plishcd minister to France, is to be menfi-1 ccd to the demon of misrule at Wishing ton, and that Jo.

Mf.xico. Mr Ei.i.is, our Into charge d'Affuirs to Mexico hns reached Washing ton, and another communication has boon made by the Presidont to Congress on the subject of our relations with that republic. From a despatch of the Secretary of State, Mr. Forsyth lo Mr. Ellis in dalo of the 20th July last, we perceive thai the depar ture of the latter from Me.ico, win in con. sequence of instructions scut him from hence under that date. FnoM Cinr.i and I'niiu. Letters from Lucnos Ay res to November 4, received in Boston, via Havana, state that information reached there from Chili that hostilities had actually commenced between Pi:uu and Ciiti.i. and had been officially communica ted by thu British ministers to the mer chants at lluonos Ayres. A letter from I'ayta stated that thu Chi lian brig of war Achilles iuid been in the harbor of Callao, and captured three or four Iferuvian vessels. Nuui'oi.k, Jan. 30. General Santa Anna and Colonel At. month, his Aid, from Washingto, via Hal timoro, arrived hero yesterday morning, in the 6toutnboat Pocahontas. The President having directed him to be conveyed to Mex ico in one of our public vessels, the barque Pioneer, Lieut Comdl. Tattnall, (one oftho:ploring3quadrons,nowin this port.) has boon ordered for that service, nnil will sail with the General lor Vera Cruz this day. The result of his mission to this country in as yet imperfectly known, though it h j rumoured that il has secured thu friendly 'officer of Iho American Government, lor the adjustment of the dispute between Mexico and Texas. Wo lake it for gran ted that the intlepeudencu of thu latior country, is to he made tho hnsis of the ad justment. Ii. is well understood that Santa Ann is prepared to meet the question on this basw, and indeed is pledged to usu his inllucnce to effect the proposed nrrango mcnt. Hut whether tho Mexican Govern ment will consent to such hiimilial iug terms or whether Santa Ana will even ho permit ted to land in Mexico, is quite problemati cal. If it be true, as reported, that hu has been outlawed by the .Mexican Government, it is plain that ho is not in u condilion to exert much influence with that government. Thu Vera Cruzmis have always been en ihusiiistic in his favor i it was Ihey who formed tho nucleus of the revolution by which he rodu into power; and it is possi ble they may again rally around him, not withstanding Ins reverses, and indentify their furl unes with his own. The manner ol lits reception in Vcrti Cruz will form an important pngo in tho history of coming events in Mexico. The news of it will be awaited with much interest. St. Aubustine, Jan. CO. On Sunday night Inst, tho sentinels sta tioned at thu gales and bridge, hoard dis tinctly thu report of three muskets at nati on's plantation, anil early next morning it was ascertained that nouio Indians or ne groes had made their appearance there, and had attempted lo steal some horses. They had broken nil a board from the stable and laken n saddle, when tho 6entiuol hearing the noise fired. He was instantly fired up. on by the intruders, who immediately fled. Cant. Ilau-ou lollowod Iho trail lor snv oral link's and di-tovered signs, which ac cumulated as hu went, and he judged it prti dent to return. On the next tin v he sturl- d with a larger force and followed them to William's plantation, 00 miles from this. and discovered their firo about 10 o'clock at night, and a number from !J to 112 around it. The parly crent up and fired n volley which killed 3, and the retnainaer fled, lea ving every thing, rifles, inositols, packs and blankets. There were two rillcs and six niuskelb. which were brought to town. The wlio'c gang were principally negroes. Not more than two Indians wore supposed to be among them. Those killed were ne groes. Oiio of them was a free negro, whose name was Jot: Meiuutt, who had gone oil' with another about six weeks since. The others Indian negroes. Trails of blood were teen nn the ground. They hud with them powder, nuckshot, cal ico, lobicco, needles and thread, which had been bought in town a few day'n since. There is no drmht, n cuiiiiiiiiiiicntion be tween tiiiui iiiui llio negroes in town. A package of tobacco was taken, which had not yet been opened. These negroes have no iluubt been prowling around lor some days. Strong suspicions are now entertained I hat these supplies have been furnished by some free negroes, who reside on Anaatatia Island, and a warrant is now out for their apprehension. It is ascertained al what store the arti cles were bought. A letter from an officer of tho arniv, da. ted Camp Dado. lOth Jan. 1337, slates:--"To day Gun. Jesiip arrived from Tampa Hay. A scouting parly captured 15 ne groes near the Wahon Sivami), who state that Powell was then in iho swamp with a lew of the Micasuky Indians, tho resl having left him.

To give the experiment a fair trial, they put a fow dozen of live her rings into thu pond. Tho second year after, a few herring wcio observed ascending tho outlet into the pond, and since, their iiiiuibers havo been annually increasing. Last year '25 barrels were taken. THE KING'S COUSINS.
