Through the attention Of a hi ; '!illy re sponsible commercial I louse. we hale jtmt been placed in pos, , ession of the subjoined highly ,ititportant ink II igeth'e from Mexico. The news was received by the British man of war, which touched at the Balize with despatches from the British Minister at Mexico, for his goVernment. The pur port of the despatches are that the United States have taken possession of California and that the Revolution in fa %or of Santa Anna is complete. We publish the follow ing letter, from which it will be perceived that the steamer Arab, having Santa Anna on board, was in Fight of Vera crux on the I;ith inst. VERA CRUZ, Aug. 16,"1840. Availing ourselves of the opportunity of a British man of war, we have just time to state that Mexico and Puebla have just pronounced in favor of federalism and San ta Anna. General Bravo's Government had hardly been established when it was 'overtlu•otvtl, and General Sales has put himself at the head of the Government un til the arrival of Santa Anna—tranquility was restored. Gomez Fareas a l ided the partizans of Santa. Anna to bring about the revolution. Ills sons have come down to hid welcome to Santa Anna, tVho left I la vanna on the Bth instant in a British steam er called the Arab. accompanied by Al monte, Lanariz, I:cjow, and Beeves, and they ought to be here every day. Gener al Paredes was taken Prisoner, and is kept in the citadel of Mexico. Gen. Sales has issued already a letter of'convocation of Congress on the principles of 1824, and the members arc to assemble in Mexico on the 6th Dec. next. The present conveyance carries the news of the annexation of California to the States, received last night by express, that the British vessel might carry it to Orleans and to Great Britain. The N. 0. Picayune of the 25th August Saws that the British brig of war Daring, ar rived off the Balize last evening from Ve ra Cruz, and two of her officers came up to the town this morning with mail and despatches. The steamer arrii;ed off Ve ra Cruz on the itith, August, - with Santa Anna on board. lie immediately placed himself at the head of the move in the De partment. The Departments of Puebla and Mexico have declared for Santa Anna, and Paredes has already been taken priso ner. The revolt at the capital was headed by Gcn. :ales. LATE FROM THE AMERICAN ARMY. Later from thei=vlrmy=== - ,grrival of the Mckim=•Capture of China by Copt. ':McCulloch—.lrriedl of Gem 'Taylor at Comargo—.Rdrance of Capt. Thmran. The steamship McKim arrived from the Tirasos Santiago, at an early hour on Sunday morning, bringing dates Iron Point Isabel, of the 17th, and from Camargo, the present Head Quarters of the Army, of the 13th of August. The news by this arrival from Matamo ros is not of general mOment. Col. Clark has succeeded in re-establishing order in the city, by putting into execution the or ders dictated for that purpose by - General Taylor. The town of China, on the river San Ju an, 65 or 70 miles from Camargo, was ta ken on the sth inst., by Capt. 'McCulloch, of the Texan Rangers, without opposition. Col. Seguin, with 100 Mexicans, were in the town, but on the approach of the Amer icans they retreated. The regiment of Rangers, under Col. Jack Hays and Lieut. Col. Walker, left Matamoras about the 10th inst. on an ex cursion into the interior. The precise rout to be taken by them is not known, and will depend, probably, upon circum stances. We hope to be kept fully ap prised of the movement of this corps, to which great importance is attaced in the, army. SANTA ANNA.—The N. Orleans Picay une says before Santa Ana left Havana he took letters front Gen. &Campbell to Cont. Conner, and, avower himself, in reply to some inquiry as to his intentions as follows: "If the people of my country are tin• war, then i am with them ; but I would prefer peace." 'IIIE BEAUTIES OF WAR A correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, writing from Matamoros under date of Aug. 5, draws the following picture of the crime and demoralization that lie concealed beneath `•the pomp and circum stance of glorious war:" ' "War engenders vice of , all kinds, as you well know ; and Matamoras had be come so disorderly from the." loafing popu lation poured in upon it from the States, that Gen. Taylor has been under the ne cessity of putting it and the country in the occupancy of his army, under martial law. You can have no idea of the number of ormorants tbat . follow the army, armed with revolvers and bowie-knives, and car rying about with them the implements of their calling—dice, cards and roulettes, sweat-cloth and thimbles-----a flagon of whis ky and a jug of rum. The gambling es tablishments and grog shops had become so numerous as to call for suppression, and old Zack has done it. Murders of late have been frequent, and the military hos pitals have been taxed for attentions to the ..cut up" to an unprecedented extent.— Some men have been literally butchered alive, all sworn to the Meiicans," but it would be fair to divide between them and l'ohoitcci - s the odium of the damning &Yetis." DRINKING ON THE FIEI,II OF BATTLE.- During the heat of the action of the Bth, - Col. 'Belknap sent a mounted servant to the rear to get him' some claret= as he re !tuned, Gen. Taylor was near, and he called him to take drink. While the ser vant was opening the, wine, a bail• came and.killed horse and len ant, and :.-initA etl the !Joule to atom ; .

Our renders are no doubt already informed of the fact that a Copper Mine has been opened in Liber ty township, in this county, and that a company from Pittsburg; has been working it for the last six months. A few days since we were shown several specimens of very tine ore from the mine, which, if fair samples of the products of the mine, cannot fail to yield ;in ample remuneration for the _labor and expense involved in ini•Vorking. Loco!6co Com'ention. On Monday last the Locofocos of this county met in convention to nominate a county'Picket. As the prKeedings weft all had beyond the gaze of the vulgar, we can know but little beyond what appears in their official publication. An nexed is the ticket recommended to the support of the faithful: Congress—Joel B. Danner. Assembly—lsaac E. Merman. Commissioner—Jonathan -Ray»zontl. Director—.lbratana ,S"pangler. Auditor—Jos. Bi(linger, (of Bow 4k) Of the most of the candidates we know but lit tle, but believe them generally to be "clever fel lows." At all events the Ticket will do as well to be defeated as any other. Mr. McClean and Free-Trade. Mr. MeCLEAN- seems not to have consulted the Free Trade leaders in this County prior to the making of Mat Tariff speech. At all events it has been the signal for his sacrifice, and accord ingly in the Locofoco convention on Monday last Messrs. E. W. Stable, Daniel Sheffer. and Win.. Yeats i%t e ere appointed Congressional Conferees with instructions to drop Mr. MCCLEAN and sup port Mr. IfAxsr.n! Much as we might regret the reward thus accorded to Mr. McClean for his manly resistance of the British Tariff of 15.16, we are gratified at the prospect of having a fair tight in this district upon the Tariff question.— Home industry rs. Foreign Pauper Labor—Amer lean vs. British interests—will be the issue ; who can doubt the , resultf The vote in Convention stood 19 for Danner, and 17 for McClean. The delegates came in 18 for each, but Danner proved h imself the better maneuverer. Frank. ITT . The Compiler is extracting liberally from the speech of Free-trade WlLmor, the only one of the Pennsylvania delegation in Congress that dared betray his State by voting for the British Tariffßill, and pronounces Mr. W.'s principles to be 'the principles of a man, a christian, a demo crat—principles upon the dissenfination of which God himself will smile approvingly!" Our friend is getting along finely—no mistaking that lan guage. Vork Count y. The Locofocos of York county on Tuesday last nominated the following ticket : Congress--John Rankin.

Let her rally arouml the TARIFF CANDIDATE, and let it not be a party triumph, so much as a triumph of principleof the Tariff of '42 over the abominable British act of '46. it is really amusing to observe the shifts to which our locoluco friends of the Press are, in their extreme misery, compelled - to resort in order to escape the charges incessantly pouring upon them from the Tariff presses of the State. The richest of all the expedients, however, is the por traiture of a most wicked and horrible dissension in the Whig ranks that is likely to prove the im mediate death of poor "Whiggery," with which the Locofoco editors are at present - treating their patrons. The Tariff of 1S 12 has been repealed, and a British Free-trade system established in its stead ; American Industry has been sacrificed to, Foreign Pauper Labor; Pennsylvania betrayed into the hands of Southern slave-drivers; ruin and dis tress are being scattered throughout the industrial' population of the land ; the wails of a betrayed anti ruined people are coming up from work shop and counting-house ; loud and bitter denuncia tions of the treason anti traitor may be distinctly heard all over the State, among members of all parties, presaging aught else than good to Loco focoisrn at the approaching contest : but no mat ter for all this—it is discovered that Gam:l.l 2 , of the New York Tribune, and WEen, of the New York Courier, have taken issue upon the subjects of "Fourierism" and "Anti-llentism," and forth with the poor, frightened, miserable wights that preside over the Locofoco presses, clap their hands in joy, and, forgetting all the ills, and dissensions, and well defined broils that are effectually break ing up the hitherto impregnable discipline of their own camp, send up a shout of mingled grati tication and indignation over what they are pleased to term the "insincerity, and dishonesty. and fatal dissensions" of the Whig party! Well, it is in deed awful "to think about," and we do hope that Messrs. Greedy and Webb will see, ere it. is too late, the mighty mischief - that is to ensue to the Whig party, unless they at once adopt some common faith upon the doctrines of Fourierism and Anti-Rent ism.

The wort of those who voted for the Tariff of I Sl6, never intended an that. The most timid or those who arc to suffer by the abomina ble law, nevel ' expected such a. result. But in the midst of gene rat propeiity: in the ball flow of business ; in the security of tho,e checks against a foreign debt that once annoyed us; in the con-qatitly improving condition ut the working classes ; in the steady development on the great mineral wealth of the country, we are met with a law wantonly. foolishly passed; that disturbs the current of business, thatparalyses VII. terprise, that strikes down the 6ii g aspirant for acthe exertions. and closes the avenue to compe tence of those who are able and willing to work ; ;ma we, and others, compla'n. From one'end of the country to the other, a voice of lamentation is heard.

The attempt is tirade to awaken the people to a just sense of their danger, and especially to the proper, the con stitutional means of avoiding,. or mitigating the evil. But:in presenting the matter fairly to them , it is deemed just towards them, and towards truth, to say, that bad as are the measures of this Gov ernment, we are. yet this side of utter ruin ; that thorigh every great interest is jeoparded, (except. ing, perhaps, great interest for the use of money,) yet all these great interests Ste not destroyed. flow poor, how low, roust be the appLeciution of the powers and duties of a a republican govern ment, that shall find mitigation for its errors in the admitted fact, that it has not yet succeeded in de stroying all the great interests of the country ; that though blow after blow has• fallen, yet the youthful energy of the people can still sustain themselves—prostrate, perhaps, but still alive— 'cast down, but not destroyed .- A blow is aimed at the iron and coal interests of Pennsylvania—interests that were beginning to flourish, beginning to have influences beneficial to individuals and the public, and there seems to be a disposition on the part of the advocates of the present administration, to excuse that blow, because it is not entirely destructive. Why should the blow be given 1 Why should any interests be jeoparded 1 No call had been made in Con gress for such an act, and nothing in the circum stances of the country rendered the blow necessa ry; and to us it appears an insult to the people, %rho cry out against the wicked law, to tell them that, perhaps, they are not utterly ruined. 'Cat down Trage3 to a Lower Standard,' "Ten Cents a Day The Doylestown Intelligencer states that an ar ticle from the Philadelphia Ledier,, is going the rounds of the Locofoco Free-trade papers, in which it is plainly shown how easy a matter it is for Pennsylvania to hear the impositions of the British Tariff. The pith of the argument is con tained in the following extract : . "The profits of the mine holders, the miners, the Boatmen, the State and the railroad companies, must be brought down to a closer standard." There you have it, "just as easy." REDUCE the WAGES of the MINERS! and the BOAT MEN !! Bring them dow to Buchanan's stand ard of TEN CENTS A DAY !!—that will chea pen the cost of Coal considerably. Then cut off a large slice more from another expensive item— the TOLL ON THE PUBLIC WORKS—the rail-roads and canals! No matter iPthnse works do produce little revenue. Our State interest can easily be paid by TAXING the FARMERS!— And where's the Farmer that would not be willing to pay an additional Tax. for the sake of allowing our Free-trade Locofocos to swell the profits of the Duke of York on his Scotia Coal Mines to half a million of Dollars pe annum ?

Prints that pronounced the act of •.Itt the hest passed for half a century—politicians NOW pier voted for and applauded it to the echo, are . about to promise that it silndl he ropeoled and mod- ' Med to accord with the wishes of Penn sylvania, 111 mi, the old trick revived up on the heels of its discovery and disgrace ; —even so. )VC! \VII/ find Journals in au- thority huying up theireaneelled falsc hoods , and reissuing them; and statesmen, great onus too, whose brows are branded \‘'illt convicted perfidy, comitn* forth with a da ring that no discovered juggler could inns ter. and attempting - the tame fraud, in the ! same manner, upon the same people. Po litical history has no parallel for such an attempt upon the credulity-of the people. Let them try it. We ask no better issue . in Pennsylvania.

American Comrress. \V hirp the • act has smitten down almost every Ameri can interest, tt seems that it has elevated almost every British one. English iron has risen under the excitement, and every English interest will feel the effect of the . anti Anterean policy. And now our people may prepare for the results which every ! sane statesman anticipated.

How stands the case .f f—The news by the Caledonia states that a fitrthe r decline lit the prier of grain has taken place in Eng land. So it seems that the opening of the ! English ports operates to the direct injury of the Farmers in this country. Ever since the passage of the Tariff l Bill the price of Flour and Orlin has been • going down. The Baltimore Patriot notes a considerable decline in wheat since Sat.. ; urday week. The best new prime red t will not Rpw command more than H 5 cents per bushel. Oats has also declined to 2'2 cents per bushel. Flour is likewise, dull of sale. And Hai ti in the face of the passage of Sir Robert Peel's hill in EnLrland, and i ßob-: ert J. Walker's bill in the U. States ! Ve rily, our farmers are to be benefited by Free Trade l'acts like the above should teach our Farmers a lesson of wisdom. They eau' now see, and will continue to learn every I day, that the British Tart:ll' Bill will op- i crate quite as disastrously to their interests as to those of the manufacturer. It is a truth which experience will teach, that the interests of the farmers and Manufac turers oh' this country are one—and what ever tends to depress the limner will op erate against the latter also. l'iticrs or WllE:yr.-IVheat is selling in Ohio fur 52 cents per busliel, and in lowa' at 31 Cents. These facts do not look as it' the farmer has been benefited by the re peal of the British Corn Laws and the: establishment of a British Tariff. 'rho; western produce will supply our markets in a short time, to such a degree, that out thrmers, will quickly become convinced', that a hoMe market is of more value than one three thousand miles off.
