 IMPORTANT FROM MEXICO.

 The Washington Union of Monday publishes a summary of intelligence received at the State De- partment from Mexico, via Pensacola. The fol- low ing document, translated from the Union, was submitted to the Chamber of Deputies on the 26th of July, by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and embodes all that the Executive Depart ment of the Mexican Government do towards pro- claiming hostties. So far that department is concerned, it is a DECLARATION OF WAR.

 The following Is the report :-

 The supreme government, after attentively eX- amning the affairs of Texas, and the annexation of that department to the American !Ininn-afte" weighing carefully all the evils which the repub- lie may suffer thereirom, It Its offended honor and the integrity of its territory, thus seriously endan cered should not be vinaicaed by the means and in the form established by the law of nations-haS decided with the unanimous consent of tine coun- cil upon the painful necessity of war with the United States: Although this resolution, resting upon clear and acknowledged justice, and provo Rcd by series of grievances no; to be borne with out disgrace, has long since been indicated, and is conformable with the repeated demands of the na- ton: vet the government could not but reflect up- on tine responsibility involved by such measure. and on the evident circumstance that, as the cleo. ton of constitutional president, and the estab- 1slment of administration, are near at hand the chamber might consider it more natural to leave to that body the decision of point of such transcendant importance. But the supreme government has not wished to appear, for mo. ment, less decided in favor of just and national war; than it was disposed for worthy and honor able peace.

 The government continues to prepare the most efficient measures for recovering Texas, and for placing the nation in the attitude most proper for it. If it does not effect all it desires, it certainly does all that it can ; and the chamber should not doubt either its efforts its patriotism. On this very day are prepared the financial measures which must, from their nature, precede the execution of the present initatory resolution.

 The chamber will bear in mind the part of the 3lth article of the treaty of friendship, commerce and navigation with the United States. In the ed over and above all that is therein required.

 In virtue of what is here said, and of the cir cumstances and documents communicated to the chamber relative to this important affair, and un- der the convincton that the facts to which the frat article of the following resolution refers will be confirmed. his cxcellency the President at council of the ministers, and with their full as- sent has been pleased 10 order me to address the chamber in the following terms, as approved by the council

 Article 1. From the moment when the supreme government shall know that the department of Texas has annexed itself to the American Union, or that troops from the Union have invaded It, 1t shall declare the nation at war with the United States of North America.

 Article 9 The object of this war shall be to se- cure the integrity of Mexican territory, according to it's ancient limits, acknowledged by the United States in treaties from the year 1928 to 1S33, and to insure the independence of the nation.

 God and Liberty

 On the o6th, proposition was also submitted 10 the Chamber hv the Minister of Finance, for a law authorizing loan of $l5,0oOO0o.
