From the New York Courier. MEXICO. Wc gave yesterday the heads of the news contained in the "Censor." of the 4th (alluding to the writer of the following letter) with other articles of intelligence culled from other journals. . Our correspondent, it will be Been, fully confirms our worst apprehensions
in regard to the future tranquility of Mexico, and adds tome further interesting particular! of late events there. Vera Cruz, Jan. 4, 1832. To the Editors of the Courier and Enquirer: Gentlemen. Enclosed, I send you a copy of the Censor, which contains an exposition ofthe causes which have induced the Garrison of this city to take unarms against the Government. On the 3d inst Gen. Santa Anns arrived in this city about half past C o'clockin the evening, and was meet by the military and part of the people with the grito of "Viva San Anna'' "down with the Ministry," and "death to the oppressors." He took quiet posses sion ofthe city. On the morning of that aay a detachment of cavalry marched hence and took possession ofthe Fierto National, an important pass -which commands the road to Mexico. The people and the army here, are for San Anna, who has taken possession of the Government funds in the Custom House, and in the Commissariat. Pri vate property and persons are protec- ' ted. The professed object of San An na and his party, is the removal or the present ministers of Government. He feat despatched an express to Mexico, and it is ssid has written to the minis ters, that if they will retire quietly, he will lay down his arms, but that they shall answer with their life for the first gun, which they order to be fired. To llustamante, it is said he has written, tkat all he wants is the removal of the present obnoxious Ministry that he disavows all office for himself, but claims the right of nominating the new Ministry subject to the approval of the fctatee. Report says that Bravo has take possession of Acapulco that Alvarez is in force in the South, and tlilt the Governor of Zacaticas has armed and equipped 18,000 militia; that the Garrison at Jalaps-, Orizala, and Cordova are disaffected towards Government. One thing is certain, the states of Jalisco, Zacaticas, Daranjo, and San Louis Potcsi are very highly excited, on account of the late illegal conduct cf Col Inclan, whom jjovcrr. mcnt seems disposed to uphold. It is difficult to sa Vj how these things will terminate. San Anna has passed the Rubicon, and with him it is victory or death. He has no middle course. The Government is strong in men and in rnoney, and will fight hard, I should think, before they will succoinb to Lis demands. -Foreigners and their property, will, I thick be perfectly safe here, hut for fear ofthe worst, the Consul has written to Comodore Elliott to send a part of his squadron to this coast. The Spaniards may perhaps f.nd the times rather warm tor them. A great number of them have retursed here within a very short time. ' In the packet goes Mr Jameson, bearer ofthe Treaty lately ratified by the Mexican Congress, formed between this and our Government. In great haste, I am most respectfully, Yours, "&.C. SMYRNA. It will be seen from the date of the "postscript to the following letter, that trie Cholera has assumed a milder form in Smyrna and that its ravages had become less afflicting. Though there is some contradiction in the accounts, yet taken altogether, we think, there can fee no doubt upon this head. We learn that Dr Decay of this city who weat out with Mr Eckford, in his ship United States, had experienced ah at tack ofthe Chalera but recovered. Smyrna, Oct 17, 1831. Dear Sir, On my arrival here from an excursion of a few days to the an cient typhosus, 1 heard with much pleasure that th treaty as amended by the Senate, has been exchanged by the rone ana is now m lull operation, and - nag piacea on i;ie same looting as those ofthe most favored nations. This circumstanceha s eiven preat rrra. tification to all our countrymen here. K must do to all those who are either residents or travellers in the Empire ofthe Ottoman Porte. W. B. Hodgi son Esq. who was the bearer of the ireaty out, arrived herefrom Constan unopie on the 12th inst and departed on me loth, ,n the brig Angeline, Capt Johnson, for Boston. In the final hegotiation, I must not omit to give our r;V"5c. ne forte, the credit tf bringing it to a termination; but not Wore the dismissal of Mr Navoni, the arisinted Droroman bvth &n.t. Tis town isin much alarm, owing to thft appearance of the Cholera, whirh
a lew wests ago taade its appearance in a mild form, since which it has ex
tended, and many have fallen victims. The Turks, Jews and Greeks suffer the mots. Perhaps that may be owing to their manner of living, and being huddled together, as they are in various quarters. Many of them have fled their homes, and sought asylums in the neighboring villages of Bournebat, Boorgas, kc. and many of the mountains. This is an awful visitation, as scarcely a month had elapsed since the Plague disappeared from among them. I contemplate leavicghere in a few dap for Alexandria; from thence to Grand Cairo, Pyramids, to the first and second Cataracts up the Nile. I shall then cross the desert, along the Red Sea to Suez, pursuing the course of the 600,000 of the children of Israel to the Promised Land ; from thence having passed over the allotments of the Tribes, I shall proceed to Russia by this route. The editor ofthe late paper, Courier dc Swni published here, has gone to Consttntinople, where he has received employment from theGrand Seignonr, to edit a paper to be published in the Turkish and French laaguages. Thus you will preceive the "march of intellect" is daily gaining ground. Yours very sincerely, Oct. 21st. Our Treaty was exchanged oa the 6th inst. The cholera, which has been raging here for some dajrs, is now Fast abating. A change of 1 1 degrees in the atmosphere, the themometer beine at present ST de grees, The opinion of well informed persons is, that there haa been about 4.XK) attacks and about TOO deaths-5 Yours &c. PHILADELPHIA. It is indeed a matterof marvel, as well as admiration, that this magnificent City should have been blessed with the wisdom, patriotism, and muniucence of three such eminent and extra ordinary men as Penn, and Franklin, and Girard. Neither of them natives of the city two foreigners of dificrcnt countries, always rivals enernics-the other an adventurer from New England ; one born in London, one in Boston, the other in Bordeaux: yet all vieing,as it were, in doing honor to the home of their adoption, and leaving a monument of gratitude to perpetuate their names and theirmemories. What is it that has given Philadelphia this pre-eminenceover every other city of the union. Is it not that influence which the practical virtues of the folowcre of George Fox, have exerted and diffused through society! We hardly know in what terms of commendation, to speak ofthe excellence of that beautiful creed of this peaceful sect patient, under persecution, rendering good for evil gentle easy to beentrcated full of fiith and rood works, without partiality and without hypocricy. Among them are no sudden changes of heart, no miraculous awakenings of conscicnce,no compassing Heaven nnd earth to make proselytes. Yet they exert a salutary and pon crful influence on society that commends their creed to ths love and admiration of all denominations. Wc think weean see in the unexampled prosperity of Philadelphia, the transmitted virtues of its early founders, which have been cher ished and practised by every succeeding generation. The public spirit of renn was the bright exemplar Frank lin: the liberality of Franklin, an ex ample for the muaifience of Girard. Boston paper. PATENT OFFICE. From the report of the Superintend ent ofthe Patent Office, we learn that the number of patent issued during the last year was five hundred and forty. ; and the corresponding amount ol lees paid into the treasary, 16.200 T. he current expenses of the office for Clerk'e hire and contingencies, durine the same period, were 3,990 Leaving a ballance in favor of the revenue, of 10,210 From the establishment of the Patent office in 1790, to the close of the last year, the whole number of patents I6sued,is six thousand nine hundred and eleven. We expect the recotdsofno nation upon the globe exhibit such strong proofs ofthe progress of the arts and useful improvements in every branch of industry, as are here presented. The cause will be found is. the freedom of our political institutions, and in the unshackled condition of the human intellect in every part of our favored land. Louisville Adv. When a French peer, a man of wit made his last will, he bequeathed leg acies to all his domestics for, their long and faithful services-but to my 6tewart added he, I shall leave nothing, because he has served me more than forty years.
A gentleman 6ent for his tay!or,who
was an Iriihman, and ordered him to let out the last suit of clothes he brought home, as they were too little for him, Some time afterwards'the gentleman wondering that the tailor kept them so long, sent for him;and being asked about the clothes, said that had punctually obeyed the gantlemans commands.and had made a very good bargain tor he had let them ont to a countryman of his own, at a whole thirteen a week, aad he had engaged to wear them at that price for six months certain, whether he lived or died.

ZEAL.-The river that runs slow and creeds by the banks, and begs leave of every turf to let it pass, is drawn into hollows, and spreads itself in smaller portions, and dies with diversion; but when it runs with vigorotfsness and a full stream; and breaks down every obstacle, making it even as its own brow it stays not to be tempted with little avocations, and to creep into holes, but runs into the sea through fnll and useful channels; so isarhan,s prayer; it moves upon the feet of an abated appetite, it wanders into the society of every trifling accident, and stays at the corners of the fancy, and talks with every object it meets, and cannot arrive at heaven; but when it is carried upn the wings of passion and strong desires, a swift motion and an kungary appetite it passes on through all the intermediate regions ofclouds, and stays not till it dwells at the foot ofthe throne, where mercy sits, and thence sends holy showers of refreshments. Jeremy Taylor. Manners.-! make it a point of morality never to laid fault with another for his manners. They may be awkward or graceful blunt or polite, polished or rustic. I care not what they are if the man means well and acts from honest intentions, without eccentricity or affectation. All men have not the advantages of good' society as it is called to school themselves in till its fantastic rules and ceremonies, and if there is any standard of manners it is one fouded in reason and good sense-, and not upon these artificial regulations. Manners; like conversation, should be extemporaneous, and not Studied I always suspect a man who meets me with the same perpetual smile on. his face the same congeeing of the body and the same premeditated shake ofthe hand. Give me the hearty-it may be rough grip of the hand-the careless nod of recognition and w hen occasion requires, the homely but welcome sal-utation-"How are you my old friend!" Notice.

During the oratorio in St. Paul's Church in the civy of New-York, while the choir, engao-ed in one ofthe choruses of Handel's Messiah, were singing the interrogation who it the King of Glory ? a vivid flash of lightning blazed in at the windows and startled the audience with its flash. But the impression rose to sublimity, when, as the response was sung--fAe Lord! strong and mighty a peal of thundei uttered deep bass in heaven! The coincidence of circumstances in this case was so unexpected andyetso much in unison with the grandeur of the subject of the chorus; and the most unmusiel ear could not but detect the
harmony of Handel's Messiah in the strangd duet human voices with the voiDcofthe thunder. Uadgr s JtlesscnWhat a pity it is," said a lady to Gar rick "that you are not taller!

Terre-Haute,Feb. 12, 1S32. 15-3 AtAiiiRon'e Casket, Or Gems of Literature, Wit aad Sentiment A MONTHLY PERIODICAL Each number containing 48 royal octavo pai ges of letter press, embellished with at least one copperplate, and eevaral wood engravings, and one or more pieces of mu Bic, Th work forms at the end of a year a volume of about 600 pages, to which an elegant engraved title page and a gener al iadex are added. THE number of volumes of the Casket which have already been published and the faithfulness and punctuality ofthe pablieher in fulfilling his contracts with his patrons, in respect to their contents, are sufficient, with those at all acquainted with the work, to show its true charrcter. The constantly increasing patronage bestowed on the Casket, has enabled the pub? lisher to make considerable improvements in the work. Its typographical appearance is much changed for the better, and its contents arc enrichtd. He believes that the volume now proposed, will not he exceeded in respect to typographical execution, the quantity and quality of the engravings, and the value f the contents, be any other periodical; and he safely asserts it to. be the cheapest publication of the kind in the country. The facilities for obtaining suitable articles for this work have of late, much increased. Some of the best literary publican tions of Europe are regularly leceived at the office of the Casket, as well as the prominent American periodicals. From both selections are made with much care. To secure a sufficient quantify of original matter, aad to enable men of taients to- prosecute their labors with success, and contribute to advance the literature and science of our own country the publisher gives a compensation to his correspondents, commensurate to the support he receives. In respect to the Embellishments which will appear in the work, the publibher believes that no other periodical has such a profusion of elegant and expensive engravings. Executed in general by the first artists in the ity they will suffer nothing by comparison. These form a considerable item in the expenses ofthe work, and in one year, exceed the whole cost of printing some periodicals for the same length of time, the subscription price of which is no lower than the Casket. The subject ofthe engravings will continue to be as heretofore Portraits of distinguished characters; plates oftha iNewest r ashione", both of Europe an America; Views of American Scenery, partic ularly striking and interesting; Natural History; Embroidering; foreign and Domestic Architecture; Botanical Plants, and whatever other objects may be deemed cal culated to instruct, interest and amuse. To inculcate sound and virtuous precepts' & guard the thoughtless against the snaves of vice; to lend the youthful mind to tha con templation of those sublime and all impor tant subjects which deeply affect its prosperity; to give a taste for the rich, pleasingand beneficial enjoyments of literature and learning, and to hold out inducements for the young to cultivate their powera and enrich their understanding with substantial information, are natteri. which the publisher trusts he will ever keep in view, He i gratified in looking over his past labors, to fiad no language or sentiment recorded, calculated to detract trom the beauty of virtue, or to show vice in a less hideous aspect than it really is. Due attention is also paid to Poetry, Anecdote, Light Reading, Amusing sketches, and those etceteras which relieve the miad from the labor of close study, which refresh th understanding, and give, a zest to graear and more important compositions. " Each number of the Casket contains at least one piece of Music, which ia selected and arranged expressly for the work. The popular and newest airs are always at command to afford a judicious selection. rtTOrdersre of postage will meet prompt attention. Persons at a distance wUl find the mail a safe conveyance for ordering the work and enclosing remittances. FOR SALE AT THIS OFFICF,
