It was mentioned in the Times yesterday, on the authority

of a Li- verpool correspondent, that news had been received at New York from Mexico, how Santa Anna had seized 2,000,000 dollars on their way to- Tampico for shipment to England. It was added, that a revolutionary at- tempt to overturn the existing Government of Mexico had been made in the capital by parties favourable to the annexation of the republic. The statement looked very apocryphal. It is repeated this morning, with an explanation that the intelligence was received "at Boston by telegraph from New York," immediately before the departure of the steamer. This explanation is not calculated to strengthen belief in the authenticity of the story.
