APOLOGY. We awe an apology: to those of our renders, who take little or no interest in such things, for having devoted 30 much space, in this, and one of our preceiling numbers, to the refutation of the calumnions libel racently promulgated: against this establishment. Had the foulslander proceeded notoriously polluted source, washould have treated it with silent contempt, ne is our invarlable practice in analogous cuses. Bul, when sent forth by tho authority of a public inceting, and under the unmet of persons who inny be thought worthy of credit, we should he faithless to our sacred duty as an Elilor, were wo' to suffer il to pass unnoticed, or fall to meet it In the most direct and, ladignant terms. -To those personally quainted with us, we need notsay, that troversies of this character are exceedingSy disagrecoble to dar taste and repugnant to our feelings.

Many years Ago, baring become disgusted at the indecent personalities which often disgraced the columns too many of our pubite Journals that they must exert a pernicinus influence upon the morals of the community--and beleving that it was possible to conduct a very decided party, or political newspaper, withant resurting to opprobrious language, vulgar abuse- -way upon making the experiment, Ta order to glen the inntter a fair and impartial trial, we. mnde our mind, when engaged in the discussion of any rather to suffer our articles to appear lame and spiritless, than to Incur the risk of transgressing the limits prescribed by decorum; and had long supposed allempt hail fully succeeded, when this and unlooked inr attack upon the purity independence of our press, convinced that it was possible we might have been mistaken. Having vainly tried to disarm assailants, by courteous and friendly expla-which should have been "satisfactory? to any true Christian, or real gentle. man -no alternative has been left us than to repel the unprocaked assauit with all incans al our disposal, and compel our FUNCTS to drain to the very dregs the hitter enp thoy had prepared for our lips. When this shall be effectually accomplished, the honor of our journal completely vindic.

nted- as we trust wilt be salisfactorily done in our next- -we shall resume the even tenor ofour course, hoping that nothing of the kind will again occur, at least for a long time come. It An ainusing necount of seine tricks, recently performed in one of the Pittsburgh by the colehrateil "Fakir of va," now on visit to the Weat, may found an our fourth page, first column. FROM MEXICO-IMPORTANT! Ily the steamer John Aull, which came up to St. Louis n39 Sunday last, the Editors of of the Missouri Stepublican received New. Orleana papers to the 21th containing as ndvices from Vera Cruz to the 12th, and from character the city of Mexico to the 8th.

Their, is highly important. It appears, that Gen. P'aredes, the leader of the late revolutionary movement, reached the capital on the 2d, without opposition, and iminodiately dissolved the Congress. A meeting of the principal olficers was then held, nt which it was rosolved that Junta of the should be called forthwith, In order to estublish a provisional Guvorament, anil elect soma persan to exercise the Executive The Juntn ancorlingly met on the 3d, and unanimously elected Paredes President, pro ten. Ife wAR inaugurated on the 4th, with grent ceremony; after which lse made an soldress, appealing in Heaven for the disinterestedness of his motives, and declaring that he would retire as soon as the Itherties of the country should ho re-established.

The new Ministry is composed aft the following gentlemen, viz: Don Juan N. Alimonte, former Minister to the United States, Secretary of War; Don Castilln Lauzar, Secrelary of Fareign Amales; Don Luis Porres, Secretary of tho Treasury; and, the Bishop of Chiapas, Becerra, Minister of Justice. The city of Mexico remained perfectly quiet; and no apprehension of counter-revolution was entertained. With the news come a verbal report, that our Minister, Mr. Slidell, having failed in the abject of his mission, had applied to the now for his passports, which had been dented him, on the plea that, an he never had been reongnized in bis diplomatic capacity, no passports were necessary, and ho was al liberty In go where he He then deinanded an escort, which was also refused; whorehpon he dispatched a senger to tho brig Somers, then at Vera Cruz, with a stateinant of the fuels, when a number of the atticers ut once determined to, proceed to Jalapa, for the purposo of escuriing him to the There appenrs to bo some doubts as to tho authenticity of the port in all ils ports; but it seems quite cortain that the failure of tho mission, and the demnanil for the passporta, are entirely rect.

What steps our Government inny take to vindicalo tho honor of the nation, thus outraged in the person of hor Minister, is yet uncertain; but will doubtless be lennwn in a fow is imagined by some that the British Government may have had soma, agency in the late revolution, and perhaps also lustigated the rejection of Mr. Slidell; but this, of course, is mere conjecture. 11 is, however, notorious, that Gen. Parcdes has been raised to the supreme command in conscquence of his supposed hostility to the United States, and his avowed tion to attempt the recovery of and that he will seek to retain his present positian, by at least aceming auxions fu carry out his views, is more than The nest arrival from Mexico will ho looked for with intense anxiety. TIER FOREIGN NEWS, Rreelved by the steam ship librenin, and which may be found in another part of this day's paper, will bo perused with deep interest.
