I would try to find a 2X4 wall stud and then put a good sized screw into it. A #10 screw about 2″ long should do the trick.Put a washer on the screw before installing. This will give you a larger hook for the mirror. From what you are saying, your house is real plaster over wood lath strips.

NOT HOME DEPOT OR LOWE’S. They will recommend what will work, and tell you how to install them. You won’t need a stud. Just the proper fasteners.
