Mr Fish, the United States Secretary of State, has received advices from Mexico, announcing that a very serious revolution had broken out in that country, which, it is believed, will result in the overthrow of the Government. Nearly all the States are in revolt. The nomination of Mr Dana, as Minister to Great Britain, baa been rejected. The Manchester Guardian states that it is authorised to say that there is no foundation whatever for any of the various intimations that have appeared in the public prints, that Mr Gladstone is engaged upon a theological work. It understands that the few and brief intervals of leisure Mr Gladstone can command are given to the slow preparation of a work which he proposes to call “ Thesaurus Homerikoß,” and which will aim at setting forth, in a form convenient for reference, the vast stores of fact (in a large construction of the words), or what the Germane call the realism, of the poems.
