 PHrADELpH1A, Aug. 16-5 1-2, A. M. The recent intelligence from Mexico, IS the all ,hsorh;ne tonic here It has had its effect, not on- lv upon inc minds of the timid, but more eectual. iy upon those who have aided in bringing about the present state of affairs l mean none others than the leaders of the Locofoco party.

 New Orleans, August sth, lsl5.

 By order of His Excellency. the President of the Republic inform the Mexican citizens residing mined that this Consulate be closed, and that re. turn to Mexico, taking with me its archeves, in consequence of the state of our relations with the United States, In compliance with this order, will this day close my office, and will sail to.mor- row for Vera Cruz, on board the Mexican schooner Relampago F. DE ARRANGOIZ, Consul

 The Light Artillery from Fort Hamilton on Fri the ship Herman bound for Texas. It is presum- ed the ship will sail to-day.

 The New Orleans Bulletin of the 9th inst. says: -" The Mexican vessel Relampago refused yester- day to take the mail we had prepared to send to Mexico and the Sandwich Islands We learn that the other papers in the city have been treated in the same way. We are at loss to understand the proceeding. Can it be sulkliness: Or is it really an embargo or declaration of war, made known by the Mexican Consul to the commander of the ves- sel, which prohibits him from the carriage of A. merican mails? As straws show which way the wind blows, perhaps here may be found true in- dex to our international relations"
