LATE AND IMPORTANT FROM MExIco-Rtl-
morsd Reception of Mr. Slideu- The mail from
the South failed from beyond Petersburg last
night, and consequently we are disappointed
in receiving the news from Mexico, by the
vessel reported below New Orleans, in seven
DAYS from Vera Cruz. We have the following,
however, which we find in the New York Ga
zette and Times, obtained from gentleman
who arrived from Havana via Charleston in
8 days.


The Juaniti arrived at Havana on the even
ing of the 22d ult from Vera Cruz, which
place she sailed from the 10th ult., bringing
adhces up to that day, and by the Captain we
learn that great change had taken place in
the state of our relations with Mexico.
4. 1t appears that Paredes had been induced to
alter his tone, owing to strong manifestations
exhibited against war with the United States,
and that Mr. Slidell, our Minister, had been
duly notified that the Government were ready
to consider propositions he had TO make on be-
half of our Government, and that there existed
no doubt but that the matter would be speedily
adjusted.


Arista, and the troops under his command,
had pronounced against Paredes and the war
party.


The News FROM EURoPE.-The packet
ship Yorkshire, at New York from Liverpool,
brings only one days later news, and conse-
quenlly nothing of interest had transpired.
The Oregon notice resolutions, as passed by
the House Of Representatives, had reached
England, which somewhat increased the war
fever, and affected the money and stock mar
kets.


The London press Of the 4th March is filled
with comments upon the Oregon resolutions.
The London Sun says, in the case of war
| for Oregon: eff the last resort, then, must be
| assented to- we have here, as on the ban ks Of
the Sutlej righto on our side"


At present it is, perhaps, sufficient to infer
that arbitration IS extremely improbable, and
that the President persists in a war policy
"two facts of which the signifcancy is self
t."-London Chronicle Of Ah.
The effect Of the resolutions had been 10 de-
press the price of English and French funds.
Cotton was little frmer,-some circulars
quoting an advance Of l-Sd.


The general tenor of the articles in the Lon
don press is warlike, but the later news they
have received no doubt allayed most of the
| feeling existing when the Yorkshire left.
| A motion was made In the House of Com
mons on the Sd, TO repeal all duties on bread
stuffs after February lst, lS49. The motion
was lost by the following vote-ayes 7S, nays
265.
