We hear by the last arrivals, that Santa Anna has just left Car-thagena and returned to Mexico, at the request of the successful revolutionists, to take charge of the government. It is now about two years since this singular personage quitted Jamaica for Carthagena, where ho continued to reside, at a place called Turbaco, near tho canal which unites Carthagena with the river Magdalena.

Here the ban ished President-General dwelt with his family, dispensing an agreeable hospitality to strangers, venting his hatred of our country and countrymen, on all; occasions, and enjoying those favorite pursuits which, in Mexico, were wont to divide his time with the cares of government or the command of the army. A late traveller in'New Grenada visited Santa Anna at Turbaco, and, in an interesting letter to the Courrier des Elats Unit, relates some anecdotes of his way of life, llis style was quiet and nor did the presence of guests interfere in the least with his daily routine. Every morning, after a cup of coffee, the General mounted his, horse and rode for a con plo of hours. On his return he bathed, and breakfasted at ton clock. At noon, precisely, he entered his private cabinet, where he received all who called on business, and "calculated interest so nicely that he might have told you the productive value of a shilling for a quarter of an hour." In fact, it is said that he played the part of an adroit and most successful money leader.

After theso daily toils were over, the customary siesta of the country refreshed his jaded senses and then, fivo times every week, the neighboring sportsmen flocked to his house wHh their choicest game cocks. The pit was immediately filled. Santa Anna took the scat of honor, to preside over tho gladiatorial poultry, and every main absorbed enormous bets, in which Sauta AxNAwas cummunly a loser of the dollars he had gained in the morniug by bis commercial usury. the patient exile lost bis doubloons apparently with as much coolness as he had made them. Before the six o'clock dinner tho General in dulged again the luxury of a bath and when ever his table was honored by the presence of on ominAnt.

The two would make a proper match, perhaps, in which both would probably be cheated.

While on this; theme, we cannot refrain from adverting to what all must have noticed in most of our- social circles in the Southern country, We mean that negligent, careless nonchalance which "young men too often put on. Wo presume that this detestable plant is not indigenous to Southern soil, but whether it bo or not, itia certain that it has taken deep root and flourished; like a "green bay. tree," under our Southern skies.

An exchange paper, referring to the refusal of the late Congress to jfcass the bill to create tjhe office of Lieutenant General, says, "General Scott is the only officer whi fought in Mexico that returned home unrewarded for his exploits. And more than this, tha country owes him atowment, as well as reward. On the scene of Ms triumphs he was subjected to ignominious treatment, deprived of his command, brought to trial before his inferiors, humiliated in "th4 presence of the enemy, whose capital he had, won by his valor, and whose hearts he had gained by his magnanimity. We did hope fcliat this great wrong would ere now havo been recompensed; but it has not, and we press it upon the attention of the incoming- Administration.

TIIE Mill A writer from the Arkansas region says that looking forward in the distance, one could swear that a beautiful lake, surrouuded by tall trees, would soon be reached, where we could en.oamp mlder refreshing shades, and bathe iu water an illusion, however, which was as mile after mile showed an inter- miuablo waste, with no friendly tree to rest the eye upon nothing but the droves bt buualo and an occasional antelope, to break in upon the monotony of tho We bhould like to see a mirage in the desert. It must be pleasant when one is very thirsty, to see a lake of water, though it be only a cloudy one, looming up in the distance. But it must be terribly unpleasant to be Received thereby, to hang one's hopes of a good flrink on a lake in the clouds to find the refreshing bathing place unsubstantial vapor. A kind of political mirage has deluded a great majiy patriotic people who hang about Albany asd Washington these days. Visions of snug berths' in tho Departments the shadows fat slices from the public stalls nice Collectorships with from a modest number of hundred dllars up to generous thousands, annexed capital appointments out of which they were not to be ousted for fjur years at least all these have loomed up, coining so near at times as if they could bo reached the next moment, whim suddenly into the presence would bound some ukase from Secretary Marcv or a herd of riv.il oitice-seckers, formitjable as buffa- los, breaking the spell obscuring the bright i vision by a more substantial cloud of dust.

How like the rising up of a long samly desert before a traveller, who has expected that the next turn Iwoujd reveal to his burning eys a clump of trees, overhanging and nourished by a living stream, must seem those Senators at Albany, who join with the wicked Whigs to vote a return to legislative business whenever tho time for an excutive session arrives. Without a doubt most of them will perish in the de scrt. Their parched lips will never taste the water which the promises of candidates before election caused to loom as large as life and seem immediately at hand. Times.

"l- 1 JEWISH NEGROES. The Rev. Dr. Phillip, missionary in the north of Africa, gives the following details concerning that country. A Russian Jew, resident at Meadah, gave him information concerning a great number of Israelites inhabiting the oases of Sahara, and dwelling also at Bathhor, liis-Wrabi, Tauggurt, Bousra, Rein Uzab Loquas, etc.

There arc in each of these places even more. In one place he found six hundred fami- ment, ome. of which were iflorff ancient tniln But 'this' is not all; other curious dotails reached Dr. Phillip from another source. A Jaw, who had accompanied a German Iravdlor as far as Timbuctuo, found near tho boundary of Bambara a large number of Jewish negroes.

Nearly every family among them possesses the law of Moses, written upon parchment. Although tliey speak of tho prophets, they havo not their writings.

These Jews haVo mingled some of the superstitions of "oral Law" (which they have not committed to writing,) with those o'f their neigh-ton, the Mabomedans and the heathen. They equal liberty with the other subjects of ue cuieis, anu nave ineir synagogues nd their rabbis.
