MEXICO.
The Minister of War has received the following
report from the commander-in-chief of the expedi-
tionary corps in Mexico, giving explanations on
several points already slightly touched on :
" Mexico, June 25.
" Monsieur le Marechal,—Your Excellency will
find in the journal which you receive the particulars
of the movements effected during the last fortnight,
so that I shall here confine myself to speaking of
certain questions which will make your Excellency
acquainted with the general state of affairs.
" I have organised at Mexico the municipal au-
thorities and the provisional Government, in accord-
ance with my instructions. A governing junta,
composed of thirty-five members, has designated
Gen. Almonte, the Archbishop of Mexico, and Gea.
Salas, as members of the executive power.
" I have called to the direction'of affairs honour-
able men of moderate opinions, belonging to the
different parties, who appearedtdisposed to labour
actively in the re-establishing of order in this coun-
try, so profoundly disorganised. These selections
have met with general approval.
"I have issued a decree for the regulation of the
press, in conformity with the legislation existing
in France.

" The governing junta has divided itself into sec-
tions for the administration of the different Minis-
terial departments. I preside over that of war, in
order to constitute the Mexican army, but its re-
organisation can only be definitively accomplished
after the establishment of a regular Government,

and the pacification of the country.
" Ever since my arrival in Mexico I have re-
ceived incessant complaints of the depredations and
crimes committed by one Buitron, who bears the
title of general. This man has done nothing during
his whole life but change from party to party, that
he might always have opportunities for pillage.
As it was necessary to put an end to such excesses,
which alarmed the populations, I caused Buitron to
be arrested at Mexico, while Colonel du Barail,
with a small column, captured all his band at San

Angelo.
" Robbers, under the name of guerilleros infest
all the roads, paralyse trade, stop public convey-
ances at the very gates of the town, plunder farm-
houses, and spread terror throughout the country.
I have outlawed all these brigands, and instituted
tribunals composed of energetic officers to execute
justice on all those who may fall into our hands.
"Before thinking of sending troops to a distance
it was first indispensable to purge the environs of
the capital of the bands which keep it in a state of
blockade. On the other hand, Negrette, seconded
by Aurellano, Carbajal, &c., was organising con-
siderable forces at Flascala to operate in the State
of Puebla and cut off our communications. The
occupation of that place thus became indispensable.
I have therefore taken measures to meet these re-
quirements.

"A French column, under the orders of Colonel
de la Canorgue, is marching on Fiascala with a
Mexican detachment commanded by General
Guttiera, who will establish himself at Apan. The

CRACOW, AUG. 18.
An engagement has taken place in the Palatinate
of Cracow. The Russians have burned two villages
and massacred the inhabitants.

THE CONFEDERA'T'E PRIVATEER
FLORIDA.
QUEENSTOWN, AUG. 18.
The Confederate privateer Florida was off Kin-
sale yesterday and boarded a pilot boat, to which
she transferred three pastiengers,,who were landed
here.

It is supposed that the Florida is still off the
coast.

PARIS, AUG. 18.
The Emperor has arrived at Chalons, and has
been very warmly received.
BOURSE, Aug. 17.--The market has been more
animated, and in the business done prices have
improved. Threes, for the Account, are now at
67f. 55c. There has been but little done in Rail-
way Shares, but in general previous quotations have
been well maintained. The market closed as

troops of General Vicario occupy Tlalpau and
Tepepa. Some of the troops of General Marquez
guard the embankments of Guanhtitlan and
Zumpango. Colonel Aymard, of the 62d, is in
position at Pachuca. General IVlejia, who has grew
influence in Queretaro, is going to that town wi
a sufficient force. Another column will soon go to
take possession of Toluca. Lastly, the cavalry is
stationed in the environs of Mexico, where it can
best find forage and assure tranquillity.
" By these arrangements I assure security in a
rather extensive zone round Mexico, and shall main-
tain my communications with Puebla uninterrupted
Nor have I at the same time neglected the occupa
Lion of the coast.

"The question of the customs of Menatitlan is
very serious, for their revenue is estimated at 30,000
piastres per month, half of which would be paid
into the Treasury and the other half employed in
paying the counter-guerilla as well as the persons
employed in the customs and police. On the pro-
position of M. Natzner, administrator of the cus-
toms, I have authorised the creation of a new auxi-
liary force to be called the Menatitlan Counter.:
Guerilla.

" General Juan Ortega has raised the province of
Chiapa in our favour. General Marin, at Carmen,
has organised an expedition against Tabasco. He
has taken possession of several points of the coast,
and will be able to afford aid to the Menatitlan
counter-guerilla. We shall soon hold the whole
coast from Vera Cruz to Yucatan.
"I am anxious to occupy Tampico by a French
force, which General Mejia will support by the
Indian corps under the orders of General Moreno,
who is in that neighbourhood.
" The artillery have found in the works round
Mexico 97 guns, most of them of large calibre ;
986,000 cartridges, 22,196 projectiles, 4,429 charges
prepared for cannon, 12,300 kilogs of powder,
300,000 percussion caps, and rockets of various
sizes. Thu artillery service will forward a detailed
inventory to your Excellency. Among the guns
found is the Pelerin, cast at Douai in 1744, and
which will be taken back to France.—l am, &c.,
