We here been favored with a cursory perusal of the MS. notes of a New York tourist in Mexico, made within the last year. The gentleman who furnished us with the notes visited our sister Republic solely in a private capacity, and for the pleasure and information to be acquired by travel, and is not engaged in any of the fashionable humbug speculations of the day. We learn that the “ Notes” are to be published, and we predict a favor- able reception by the public. The fol- lowing is an extract, relating to the gos- sip of the court of his Highness the Dic- tator of the Republic; premising, how- ever, with the explanation that he seems to have been more or less « stuffed” by Some one or other, to whom the United States Senate’s alterations of the Gadsden treaty are by no means palatable: Santa Anna is an accomplished hypo crite. He has betrayed country and in- dividuals, when his instincts for plunder prompt him to do so. He has broken all the pledges he gave on being recalled, and abused public confidence to rear up power, absolute and transmissible, in Mexico. To accomplish his design, a church militant, with the closest affilia- tion between church sovereignty and in- fallibility, is the present texture of his one-man tryanny. Itis not to be re- gretted ; as in this policy the world sees the origin of the civil commotions that distract Mexico. A plunderer of the first water, it is already said that he and his Salamancas, have shared two of the seven millions of spoil paid by the United States Senate, which, by the by, was no part of the original treaty. It is truc that the treaty (not senatorial legisla- tion) appropriated a larger sum. Bnt the obligations of the eleveuth article were fully released, and it was expected that of the fifteen millons to be paid. eight would be distributed among the sufferers from the Indians on the fron- tier. They were all so told, and ar- rangements were made to ascertain valu- ations. This was necessary to reconcile this country to the treaty. Now, the senatorial legislation is ambiguous on tizat point, and as Santa Awna was only rec- onciled by the assurance that the ten millions paid by the Senate did not abro- gate the obligations under the provisions of the eleventh article. and not the re- sponsibilities incurred in the past. That, in fact, to indemnify the losses under the eleventh article remains an open ques- tion, With the other issues which the senatorial !egisiation has opened, and which were settled under the treaty as originally sent to the United States. San- ta Anna consented to the change, under the pressure of the want of money, and under outside assurances through a con fidential agent of Senators that indemnity was still open, and might be sought. This enabled his Serene [lighness to appropriate the whole seven millions paid, to be divided or plundered between himself and his confidential Salamancas. He has one that throws Christian's banker in the shade. Two of the seven kas been divided between them, and one more has been shipped from Vera Cruz. What direction it will take remains to be seen. Rumor whispers that it is de- signed to promote revolution in South America, and that Santa Anna is in per- fect understanding with Paez, in the lat- ter’s designs on Venezuela, Paez is an instrument to do the work of abso- lutism in all the Spanish revolted statcs. So he is understood to be here. Indeed, he passes here as the most effectual agent to re-establish Spanish power in the Americas antagonistical to Anglo-Saxon barbaric aggression. This has been re- peatedly affirmed as the policy of the one-man-absolute power which his Se- rene Highness 1s resolved to rivet on Mexico. In his progress to check out- breaks and opposition, the public are every now and then astonished on find- ing Santa Anna awakening to realize the truth and giving evidence cf a disposi- tion to conciliate liberty, when he gives out intimations that his ministers have deceived him, ana shall be held respon- sible. He has a private secretary, a Gen. Bassadre, a reputed liberal, who te.npo- rizes with his interests, however. See- ing Santa Anna traveling too fast, he en- deayored to check him by a friendly hint, The cabinet, for they are all of the kit- chen order, took the alarm, and accused Bassadre of a high crime. Santa Anna t mad, (an epidemic wlth him,) and f was to be reproved. On the next day, Bassadre, who was aware of the charge, came carelessly into the room or office where were assembled the kitchen. He is remarkable for impudence and bear- ing, and was not ss by the tribu- nalassembled. ‘ d morning, Gener- al,” (for he always addresses his chief with the freedom of confidence,) «you look unwell. Your night has not been disturbed, I hope ?” “No, no; FE am mad—mad with you. You used your influence to promote @bl. —— to be a general, and I am now in- formed that you sold that influence for thirty ounces.” “No, General, you are misinformed. It was sixty ounces! Surely you would not have me to insult his gratitude and kindness as to returnit offensively ? But, General, there is your Premier on your right. A few evenings since, his acc m- plished lady received a casket of jewels worth $5,000. No doubt it was a grate- ful return for some favor done by a friend. And, again, there is your minister of jus- tice, who makes as well expounds the law. He made the law to relieve it, and re- ceived ten thousand dollars! The jus- tice suarved— Santa Anna snorted—the justice retorted, | THE WEEKLY STAR, ' ‘This excetiont Pamity apd News Jpurnal—coatain ‘Ying & greaser variety of intereming reading than “} be found tn any OG Casu, mmvaRasLe mm advance. 8G Single copies (in wrappers) can be proeured ®@ the counter, immediately after the issue of the paper.

He drew forth from his pocket the laws or decrees of the week, and pointed to that which had been paid for. The Premier was mute until asked what he had to say. He replied that he was not in the habit of looking into such domes- tic matters amid the responsibilities which surrounded him. He had yet to learn that the reception of jewels and or- naments by his lady was a public of- fence. He presumed that Madame Boir.l- la, like her Serene Highness, could net, in courtesy, decline a present which gal- lantry offered. It seems that Madame Santa Anna had received several valu- a les—a brilliant cloak, a carriage and horses for the General, &c., from parties whe thus showed their gratitude in a delicate way for valuable contracts with Santa Anna’s government. His Serene Highness, on this investigation, turned his frown into a smile, and passed the whole affair of plunder off as a joke, say- ing: “It gratifies me to see near my per- son ministers and secretaries who can so well take care of themselves. It is to me the most grateful cuarantee that they will be careful of the pablie reasury.” Thus do public atfairs progress in un- hat py Mexico! Is not Santa Anna, in ius one-man power and civ'] war against the States and federation, brought within the category of abominations, political and colonial, which Mr. Munroe declared the United States could not look on with indifference ? Is not his policy the true annotation of recolonization ? Cross Reapincs.—Did you ever try to read across the columns of an advyer- tising paper, instead of perusing them the usual way? We adopted the first mentioned method, the other day, and the result was pretty much as follows: “Antique and modern books, bought, sold, and exchanged, and—washing made easy and pleasant by the use of—the fall style of hat—embracing 300,000 square feet of flats—only 128 cents each—it- cluding valuable advice as to choice of suitable occupations, and congenial part- ners for life.

No sub- scriptions taken for less than one year— at the well known hack, livery, and boarding stable—where particular attcn- tion is paid to customer work—children half price. «Those citizens who have changed their resicence within the city since the first day of May last, are requested to give notice at the—annexation of Boston and ‘harlestown. Mrs begs leave re- spectfully to inform her friends that she has always in her employ experience! and fashionable milliners, and first-rate —opinions of the Boston press—every article manufactured to order, and war- ranted to give entire satisfaction—a sin- gle table-spoonful being commonly a suf- ficient dose for adults.” Feottsh Pepestrian Feat.—Hughes, who walked 80 consecutive hours upon a wager at San Francisco, and was nearly killed by the feat, undertook. on a bet of $3000, to walk 100 hours. Commencing on Wednesday, he kept on the move until Saturday night, when he began to show the effects of fatigue, and staggered a good deal, particularly atthe turnings. He carried a stick in his hand, and a friend kept by his side continually and tried to keep him in- conversation. As the night advanced, Hughes became very drowsy; but by the application of stimulants and slight whipping, he was kept in motion unul Sunday morning, when the crowd became so great as to effect him considerably by the vitiation of the air in the room where he walked. The time expired at 12 o'clock at night, but before that time he presented a pit- iable sigh . His mind seemed to be com- pletely gone, and he would occasionally speak to the crowd, who were endeavor- ing to arouse him and keep him to his task by every possible means, and ask what they were doing there, and such other questions. So far was he gone then, that some of them claimed that he had lost the bet. He still maintained his position on the plank, however, until twenty minutes to 11 o'clock, when his friends gave up the task of ke ping him at work, as a hopeless one, and allowed him tocome down. He was walked off by them and properly cared for. Though failing to accomplish all that he had un- dertaken, he has nevertheless, performed the unprecedented feat, of walking with- out cessation or rest, for the space of ninety-eight hours and forty minutes. A Nation oF Atuetsts.—Silas E. Bur- rows, Esq., of New York, who visited Ja- pan in his splendid clipper ship “ Lady Pierce,” closes a lengthy letter as fol- lows: ‘*The Japanese are a nation of Atheists, denying the existence of a God, and selecting as an object of worship either the Spirtual Emperor of Meaco, or any other Japanese. He was told by the interpreters that formerly their religion was similar to that of China, but that the belief in a Supreme Being had latter- ly been entirely discarded; and they professed to be much shocked on Dee-yee no-skee declaring his beliefin the Deity, to whom, and not to the Spiritual or Temporal Emperor, he said his success- ful application for, and thankful acknowl- edgements of, deliverance from the drift- ing junk had been granted.” > “ You are “speaking your natural ife was a friend of Madame Gal-/ language,” said a person who was lately very, whose estate was involved ina suit. | addressing a popular convention to those who were rewarding his efforts with hisses, ‘‘you are speaking your natural language. Go on, I like to hear you.” The disturb- ance ceased.
