We were yesterday favored with the perusal of
letter from Mexico, received by the last arrival
here. 1t contained some speculations In regard
to Mexican affairs not without interest laH1lls5


The absolute refusal of the Mexican troops TO
move upon Mexico has been before mentioned,
and allusion has been made to P1OnunciGmentO
by Paredes as being moro than half expected. In
Tampico it was rumored that he was likely &c. de-
clare himself Consul In Vera Cruz the rumor
was that he would renounce in favor of a Regen-
cy or to Consulate, to be composed of three mill
tary mentioned, Valencf and himself This
report was believed by very shrewd men in Vera
Cruz to be altogether probable. Supposing these
three military men" to be perfectly pure and
patriotic, it is held that they. could do nothing
more acceptable TO the nation, md especially to
the business classes, than to overtarE the present
Administration, which is without money! without
credit, without energy and without power, and
which ought not therefore TO be allowed to stand


Americans in Vera Cruz were looking for
news of demonstration to be made on the Wes-
tern coast Of Mexico by our Pacific squadron.
They were so eager for consimmatiou as to
give countenance to a report afloat that Monterey
had second time fallen in the American hands.
We give these conjectures and rumers for what
they may be worth. Pieayune.
