A aight alteration in the celebrated epigram applied to Geoffrey, the adle but venal critic of the Journal des Debdats, would exactly describe their preeent condition— Quand Santa Anna fait un pet La presse dit qu'il sent ls rose, Et jlen est qui tenterait De prouver le vrai de la chose. There can be no doubt that his Serene Highness is bent on reslizing all the shadows, as he has already grasped all the substance, of imperial power, Ia his efforts to accomplish the objects of his ambition he has exhibited considerable tact and adroitess, more, indeed, than was to be expected from him, As his assumption of the imperial purple is to be brought abeut by the usual Pretorian mancavre, # good deal of his time and¥olieitude is devoted to the organization of his forces and to those military cajoleries and flatteries, a la Louis Nepoleon, which are supposed to contribute to the end ia view. In all these attempts to conciliate the army he al ways contrives to keep defore the public the memory o his own deeds—at least such of them as he is not ashamed of. The celebrations of al! national days, for instance, are always preceded by some great military display in honor of Santa Anna, Thus, the anniversary cf the Indepon dence, on the 17th of Septex:ber, was preladed by 8 grand military fee on the 10th in honor of hia victory over the Spaniards, The troops were called out and reviewed, the Alsmada was decorated, popular addresses prevented, and the day wound up by grand exhibition of fireworks, In short, it far surpasred the display cf the 17th, with ono exception, namely, that the fags of other nations paid the customary honors to that day, whilst they suffered the anniversary of Santa Anus’s victory at Tampico to pass unnoticed. It was even aaid that the latter csle- bratien ‘ralred the dander” of the Spanish Minister, and that it had some influence in originating the late dis- agreements between the Spanish and Mexican Mintsters. The former took his leave, but has since returned to his post, He seerms still however, rather crusty, aad full of vindictiveness against the Mexican rebels. This aff.ir of the 10th was, after all, but « sorry affair, although every effort was made to give it cclat, The muster of the treops, which, it was said, would amount to about 10,000 strong, dwindled down to about 3,000—all that could be got together for the oo- casion, Still, hia Serene Highness: swelled like a frog with ill-ooncealed pride, and it was almo:t feared would explode before the close of the exhibition. He reviewed the troops in a carriage, and it is ramored that when he got back to the Palace of Tucubaya he exclaimed, in the falness of bis exultation, tbat with such troops he could drive back American aggression and recover California and Texas. M. Bonilla, Santa Anna’s Prime Minister—formerly pettifoggicg lawyer, and an eleve ot Mr Poinsett, of the eft shell cemocracy, bat, allured by the spoils, now a Minister of ?tate for tne empire—is the propristor of the Universal newspaper, which may, therefore, be tal as the exponert of his opicions. This gentleman appears to think that he is contributing to build up the new regime onasure foundation by abusing American institutions, and what he is pleased te call the Goth and Vandal spirit of the States, There attacker, however, fallas stillborn an did the attempt to get up a ridiculous farce calied ‘The Yankee in the Valley,” and which, by the by, was first repudiated by the Universal It appears that after being exhibited for a few nights in the Boweries of Mexico it was thought that it might be played at the Eanta Apna Theatre. Heacbills were accordingly profurely distributes, inviting the public © wituees this carricatare of American manna ‘The American Minister, it is eaid, was advised not go leat he should hear and ree somstaing offensive; but he took a diferent view of the matter, and secured one of the Tost conspicuous b xes in the house, Accident #0 willed it that the box which he occupied waa situated bext to the central and oortained loge where sat the utnre Empress—a beantifal women, modeat pers avd address, but at the same time erceetingly graceful and impssiog im her aprearance. She was sur reunded by Senta Anna’s rteff, glitvering ia all the eplendor of gold and feathers, the Dictator himasif maizing ip hie retirement at the Court of Tucuba: the Versatiles of Mexico. Next to that of the Empress the Americen Mivister’s box was the brat filled. The other parts of the house, ine!uding the pit, were, contrary to expectation, rather thinly attended, but here and thera might be seen conspictously “sloping down the valley” 's few veritable San Slicks and Yankee Paul Prys. The whole affair turned out s miserable failure—so mnch so, in fact, that the Prime Miviater’s paper—the Universal— ‘was the first te condemn what it had ortgivated, and to consign “The Yankee ia the Valley”’ to the oblivion that it Cenerved, by the old but sppropriate remark that ce ré was but one stepfrom the sablime to the ridicu appointment of Copanl ior New Or- in to reside in your city.

With an air of candor and eleganse, he msn ogee with great adrottne+s to throw a veil over the mos! deeply meditated designs of treachery and fraud. He is, in short, a complete soldier of fortune, with the most unfortunale passion for money.

They will quietly submit to any authority or power which is admiuistered for their proteciion and intereste; and Santa Anna might maintain the @ apire, and possibly transmit it to o'hers, if he oould be im presred with these facts, But he is misled by his vanity and the ignorant partisans and flatterers who sdmioia er to his weakoesees and inflame his passions by d: nonvein, all progress, and more especially that of the Uuite: Btates, as adverse to his iatercsts.

If this be the case, it must fellen like « bombshell oa the Palace. The Ameri can Minister is sald by his colleagues to be no diplo tatiet, but he carries out the object he has in view with perhaps more success that if he had been regularly train ed inthe school, He mases a straightforward dash at them. without troubling bimeelf about forms; and as he is not to be diverted from what he considers right by vain fears, and bes «fim and determined will to inrist op what he considers due to his country ana his own po sition, he is just the sort cf man to disconoert the pe ty intrigues of which Bonilla is the soul and centie.
