Krom tho N.O. Picayune ot the 23m AFFilfiS IN MEXICO. A gentlemap of our acquaintance who has just returned from a visit of some length to Mexico, and who during his so journ thcro has various good opportunities for becoming acquainted with the political condition of the country, has handed us some memoranda of his conclusions, which qs is a sagacious and cool observer, will prove of interest,, particularly as they aro Opposed in the chief points to what the peo ple and pfesi of the United Stales believe to be the true condition of Santa Anna’s administration and policy. Ho says, nnd it astonishes us with San ta Anna’s precedents o£ absolutism, ener gy and lovo of personal control before us, that the President leaves tho management of everythin* to his Ministers, and they are afraid or.too lu2y to act. Santa Annacamo into power breathing hostility to every in habitant of tho United States, ho pub lished his hatred ; constantly harped on that theme, aDd hts official journal has abused this country in tho most unmeasur ed torms. Me decreed tho roising of on ar my of 91,000 men ; ho prohibited the cir culation of American coin; he enacted that any Mexican who spoke in favor of annex ation to the United States should be pun- ' ished with doath by sentenco of court mar-i tial; he threw himself into tho hands of the Spaniards,the monarchists, and thochurch; he abolished the liberty of tho press, and fi- j nally established, in a clandestine manner, i a system of titles for priests, j These measures, however, have not roi lalized his expectations. Tho Spaniards and Monarchists were too feeble to assist j him or rake funds; the church would not loan him some $510,000,090. Ho has tri ed to get rid of the Monarchists fto'bftd pla ced in office, with the intentto replace them with-Liberals; ho has had to explain in a published decree that ho did not intend to establish the priest titles; his Ministers have had to acknowledge that the gover nment is bankrupt, and is obliged tosuspend payments in somo departments. There is not revenue sufficient to meet | tho wantsofan economical administration.! Tho army estimate has had to bo reduced. Santa Anna has been obliged to call on the Governors of tho States to suggest a mode of raising money, although he seized upon tho funds of these States for his own purposes. Finally, in tho public interview he had with our late Minister, Judge Conklin, a notico of which was published by the offi cial journal, the Universal, on tho 17th inst the President expressed tho greatest friend ship for tho United States and the Ameri- can people. He said to the Minister. It is with deep regret that I witness the departure of your Excellency, and I hope you will express to your govermvnt tho sentiments manifested by the Mexican Ex ecutive; tho good wishes that animato us tadrnw oloserevery day tho friendly rela tions between both nations, particularly the prayers uttered for your prosperity, and that of the American people! Santa Anna’s hatred to the Americans exists,it is vain for him (odisguisoit, is dead ly in the extreme. Ho would no doubt gratify tho feeling even at a desperate risk; but just now, as our acquaintance thinks, tho Mexican President is afraid to move. Ho can raise neither troops ndr revenue; He has tho church against him.' A pow erful party, waiting only fora leader, is working for his overthrow. But ho will withal make no concession to the instances of tho United States Gover- ment, Tlioro will be no adjustment of tho Mesillu boundary question, or of any other than the United Slates Executive may have at heart. Our informant’s memoranda concludes by saying.- “■Tho Mexican people are friendly to the Americans, and as soon as a now Govcrment comes into power this will be socn.” Bonus Deeds.*— We are assured that there havo been executed in this city since last January not less than two hundred deeds for lands located in the old Military Bounty Tract, Illinois, and purporting to be made by soldiers of tho war of 181 SJ; nearly nil of which have been officially certified ns acknowledged upon the oath of one person as subscribing witnoss—the makers in no caso boing produced before the Commissioners. Of course, there is foul/plny somewhere; and tho probability would seem to bo thnta gang of scoundrels have conspired to forgo those deeds in the name of soldiers who are known or pre sumed to be dead, and aro intended to bo sold to immigrants or to squatters on the lands, or to those! who. may have settled on them under Tax Sale titles.

SEYLER, of Brody tp, OUR COUNTY TICKET. Ihe names of the candidates placed in nomination by our Into Democratic County Convention, will be found in their appro priate placo at the head of this column. The Convention was well attended, nrid j among the Delegates, we noticed several | of the oldest, most steady, and most relia ble Democrats of our county. JSpch men have no selfish purposes to accomplish,— They may ho mistaken, and they may sometimes be deceived ; but such mishaps will be of rare occurrence. That the tick et is the best that could have been select ed, or will give full and entire satisfaction, we do not claim; but that it is composed of men fit for tho stations to which they aro assigned, and men who will exert their best efforts honestly to carry out the prin ciples of the Democratic party, and faith- j fully discharge their duty to the public, we may well claim. The Hon. James Burnsides, the nomi j nee for President Judge, is well known to l our citizens, and wo presume he is as much like a citizen of our county, as any other person who is not such in fact. Having practised in the courts of our county stea dily ever since he was first admitted to the bar—consequently he understands the bo siness of our county, much better than most other non-residents could be expect ed to. His cordial nomination forelection is alike complimentary to our distinguished Chief Magistrate, ns it is tho free-will en dorsement, by his neighbors, of one or his most important and most delicate offirinl acts. For Assembly, tho Convention has giv cn us Alexander Caldwell, of Pike tp., i a gentleman of sound Democratic faith, strict moral honesty, and good understand ing. If the other counties concur in his nomination, his election may be consider ed certain. In this wo think there should be no hesitation. Elk county hadithe mem* heir two years ago, and M’Kcan last year; and as M’Kean has the Senator also, we presumo she docs not insist on having the membor again. Our candidate, ifolected, will fairly represent tho whole district, and we think ihero is no reasonable grounds why the other countios should not cordially unite upon him. Mr. Porter, the candidate for re-elec tion to tho office of Prothonotary, &c., is well known to our citizens genornlly. He has proved himself to bo one of the most obliging, punctual und gentlemanly officers that' over held, that station—and this is saying a good deal, for'that station has been filled by some of tho cleverest fellows in these parts. 1 His nomination wpa gen- erally expected—it was deserved, and ho will bo again triumphantly elected.' For County Treasurer, we havo our ex cellent fellow citizen Jqiin M’Piierson, Esq., of this borough—who is truly a worthy citizen, an honest man arid soum Democrat. Hisnomination was really de served, and his election may be consider ed certain; —and when elected thedutiosol the office will bo discharged in the raosl faithful manner. Rodeht MahapfEy, of Bell towbship, i tho nominco for County Conimissioner, is a man of very excellent, busies?;, habits, fully qualified to discharge the"(|qties,of the office, .and a Democrat of-the right stripe, und shnll, without a doubt; bo tri umphantly elected. J. H. Seyler, of Brady township, ouf candidate for. County Auditor, ii also a democrat of tho right stripe, ciuinenlly qualified to discharge) the duties of tho of- fice. He justly merits, orid; he doubt will receive the support of the party. 1 1 J " 1 • ■ •*' ' ■ -f'V' •!:{} aw j Roswell Luther, the nominee for C 0. ,! DEMOCRATIC COUNTY CONVENTION.

Mr. John Leonard, was arrested at or near his residence in tin's county, the be ginning or this week, and tnken to Brook ville, whero he is to havo a hearing on a charge of having passed a considerable quantity of counterfeit monoy on citizens of that county. It appears that Mr. Leon ard had been travelling round among the furmers of Jefferson, under prctenco of| buying up. a drove. Ho would give a j counterfeit $5O note to the person from! whom ho purchased any cattle, receive his | change in good money, agree with the per- 1 son to deliver the cattle nt a certain place! on a certain day, and pass on to the next.' He was finally susjjceted, pursued and cap-! tured, and will doubtless bo dealt with as: hejustly deserve?. j The notes are on the ‘Merchant’s Bank of Boston/ and the ‘Merchant’s Bunk ofi Salem,’ and aro said to bo woll executed, I and difficult to detect. Since the arrest ofl Mr. Leonard, it has been discovered that quite a number of the notes have been circulated in this county, and heretofore considered good. Efforts have boon made to capturo others, or at least one other who is suspected of having been engaged in cir culating these notes, but have as yet prov ed unsuccessful. The following resolution which was sub mitted to the Democratic County Conven tion, on Saturday last, and rejected, has boon handed to us with n request that we would give it a place in our columns. Resolved , That tho Democratic Con>- mittccs of Vigilance, which were appoint ed in tho several townships, to hold the primary eloclions for the year 1853, are hereby directed to hold an election of the Democracy in their respective townships, nt the time and place of holding the general elections on the 2d Tuesday of October next, A. D., 1853. Tho object of said elcclion.ehall bo to determine whether tho nominations of the Democracy of Cleo rfield county shall here after bo made by tho Democratic voters at tho primary elections, voting directly lor tho candidates, according to what is called tho Crawford county system, or whether they shall vote for delegates to mnko the nominations, ns at present. Tho tickets shall be headed “Nomina tions,” and those favorable to the Craw-! ford counly system shall have on their 1 tickets “Crawford Systom,” and those fa-1 vorablo to the Delegate system, shall have on their tickets, “Delegate System.” And the Committee for holding 'said! election is further required to send one of! their number or some Democrat, duly au thorized by them, in order to mako return of the voto castin a Convention to bo held: by those bearing the said returns, at the' Court House, in Clearfield, on the Friday! after the said election. I The Convection thus held,shall receive tho return vote and publish the result in the “Clearfield Republican,” and tho sys tem receiving a majority of the votes in its favor, shall thereafter be adopted by the Democratic party in Clearfield county in making nominations.

While Colonel in Mexico, ho was taken sick, and was received into thehouso of one of the richest and most rpspoctiblo* Mexican citizens, whero ho received tho 1 kindest attention until his restortltion to : health. There was a daughter of tho house ' young, beautiful and accomplished. He’ was brave and she was fair, and of course’ they could do nothing else than get dcs. peratoly in love. She was rich and lib : wns .ds proud as poor, nnd this was tho 1 barrier of their earthly felicity.
