current yesterday, At the second boar] Harlem advanced % per cent, with small sales, Operators are not so much frightened at the move- ments of specie as they were at first. The bugbear has jostits terrors. In tho panic realized, when specie be- y from us, all reason is abatidoned, and we should judge from the excitement produced, that many believed the precious metals were destroyed, in- stead of flowinginto the channels of trade, for the pur- gins to move pose of regulating balances. ‘The Mechanics’ Bank of Baltimore has decl ared a dl- Vidend of three and a half per cent for the last six months, The Patapsoo, Bank of Maryland, has declared a divi- dend of three and a half per cent forthe last six months’ The position of Mexico, and the probable result of the second conquest of that country, are exciting a vast doal of interest in political, financial and commercial circles. We have got through with the fighting part of the business, and we must now turn our attention to the commercial resources of the country and the rege- neration of its political condition. There is not the slightest doubt but that the administration will make as much out of Mexico as powible. The resources of that country will be rapidly developed under the supervision of the present Secretary of the Tressury; and if we can cnly hold on; if the Mexicans will be good enough not tomake peace with us; if we can only keep possession by force of arms long enough to bring in a revenue large enough to psy more than the expenditures, there will be nothing left but annexation. The people of Mexico are @n incongruous mass, and, so long as they mix with each other, Spanish and Indian and Indien and Mexi can, producing a mongrel and depreciating race, they will, ia time, become even worse than they ha’ ‘The emigration from this country, imthe shape of mili- tary recruits, from time to time, will not only American- ise the country, but the intermarriage of these emigiants with the fair senoritas of Mexioo, will Americanise the people, and im the course of time a fine race will Spring up; race equalto anyin any section of the world. Au army of fifty thousand American soldiers ia Mexi- CO, will necessarily regenerate the natives of that coun- try; and our volunteers will have an immense influence ‘upon the institutions and the people of Mexico; as their period of enlistment expires, they will engago in nther employments in that country, and settle down, increase and multiply, spread civilization in every direction, and change the social and political complextion of that re- public, The present population of Mexico is about eight millions, and the population of this country about twen- ty-three millions—the greatest and strongest must ab- sorb the smallest and weakest. We do not expect to yegenerate Mexico in a year; but we do in less than one geacration; our accounts from the places our army oc- cupy, already show an improvement in the habits of the people of those sections. American manners end cus- toms are rapidly revolutionising the peeple of the cities and ports in our possession, and as these places exert a great influence upon the interior, the im- provement and change spread, in every direction. The prejudices of the Mexicans are strong, no doubt, but it will be impossible to resist the efforts made by our young officers and soldiers, in ingratiating them- selves imto the good graces of the fairer and softer sex. ‘The progress already made im individual annexation, gives us some idea of the result. A revolution of this kind isirresistable, there is nothing’ like commencing in the right way, and it is our impression that in a few year, , the‘ Northern barbarians” will be as much respected in every part of Mexico, asin any other part of the world. As soon as the tide turns in our favor it willrush on with the greatest rapidity. With this influx of Anglo Saxons into such a rich coun- try us Mexico naturally is, we expect the most productive results. Our people have seen therich resources of that country; they have lived under its beautiful climate, and have seen and felt what they have heretofore only read of. We have learned more of Mexico since this war commenced, than we should have known, perhaps, for years. The working of the mines has been the principa purault of industry in Mexico, and with the most beau-! tiful country and olimate in the world, its resources have remained dormant. It requires a different people to de- velopethem. The government of that country having for so many years been in the handsof a few military leaders, who have extorted from the millions the most enormous taxes, and have oppressed the people in every ‘way, there was no chance for improvement in national wealth and prosperity. The rule of these leaders is at an end; their race is run, and &@new power has tecome absolute, The change will be most favorable for Mexico, and the world at large. The revenues derived from Mexico by the old govern- ments were large. The average of fire years from 1763 to 1768, was 6,169,964 piastres ; from 1767 to 1769 an average of 8,000.000; 1778 to 1776, 12,000,000 ; 1777 to 1779, am average of 14,500,000; 1760 was 20,200,000 nue were from the mines, (which in 1793 produced a revenue to the government of 4,600,000 piastres,) and from the manu- facture of tobacco. T: ese two sources were the most important, and gave about half the revenue. We annex a very carious table, showing the sources and amount of revenue at two periods. If the progress of population and public prosperity was so great at that time, what can we expect in this age, when a new race is exerting gies to increase and develope every source of to 1785, 18,176,479 ; im 1802 the revem piastres.

This revenue, it will be seen, is independent of any income from{customs; it is merely from @ system of internal or direct taxation. ‘We can form some idea from this of the revenue which can be derived from that country, under @ more economical and more energetic administration of the government. The populaticn and wesith of Mexico are now greater than at the close of the 18th century.

With # population of only about one-third that of this country, she has resources @ large revenue. An import aud an export duty, in connection with direct taxes will répidiy swell the income, and soon give us an amount equal to the expenditures. All we want is, one to offset the other; we want the people of Mexico to pay for car- ying on the war, and pay for giving them free and libe. ral institutions, and freeing them from the tyranny and misrule with which they have been so long afflicted. fog ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH, fe From the South.
