Late From Mexico. -- By our late advices from Mexico, we have the letter of the Mexican Minister to Mr. Shannon, closing all correspondence with the United States, and, also, the protest issued to the English, French and Spanish Ministers. The following extract from the document, will elucidate the feelings with which Mexico receives the news of the Annexation of Texas:

" The undersigned remits to his excellency, Mr. Shannon, the protest already directed against annexation; and, moreover, would add, that the Mexican Republic will oppose the measure with all the decision due to her own honor and sovereignty, and that the Government ardently desires that considerations of loyalty and justice should yet outweigh with the citizens of the United States, designs for extending their territory at the expense of a friendly Republic, which, in the midst of its misfortunes, disgraces, seeks to preserve an unspotted name, and thereby the rank to which its destinies call it," &c. &c.

Here follows a few extracts from the " protest"

" The undersigned, Minister of Foreign Relations, has the honor to transmit to his Excellency, The Minister of , the following circular, being compelled to employ this means of transmitting to his [your] government, in this note, the solemn and formal protest of the Mexican Republic, suggested by an act which, wounding to the last degree the rights and honor of Mexico, is equally destructive to the universal principles of justice, to the respect due free and intelligent nations, and the good faith which civilization has fixed as the basis of international intercourse.

'The American Government having been the first to acknowledge the independence of the Republic of Mexico, showing itself a zealous partizan of liberty, has been the only one which has endeavored to usurp a portion of her territory He would also add, that, as it appears from recent declarations, the designs of the United States have been as old as the friendship, which it was sought to conquer - first, by a treaty of amity, and by another for the adjustment of boundaries -- which has now been completely violated. In aiding Texas to sever herself from the Republic, the United States were wanting in good faith ; but in aiding to incorporate Texas with the American Confederation, and declaring that this be her policy for twenty years, she has pursued a course which has no parallel in the history of civilized nations The Mexican Republic will employ, in opposition to this measure, her power and her resources, and, trusting in the justice of her cause, does not fear to give assurance that, whatever may be the result, she will preserve the honor which, at any cost, she ought to defend in the very grave matter under consideration."
