under Captain Gibson ; and 200 from Washington, 1
two miles above the crossing; 50 thirteen miles east
of Seguin, under Lieut. Lubbock ; 50 with no com-
mander, about four miles from the St. Marks ; 70
from Brazoria, at reach Creek, near Mrs. M'Clure's ;
and 200 from Bastrop and Travis counties, between
Austin and San Antonio, under General Burleson.
There are also with General Burleson 40 Tonkeway
Indians ; and 50 Lipans, ten miles east of Gonzales,
are waiting to join him.
Many of the French emigrants arrived last spring
at Matagorda, have been sick, and several have died
during the summer.
Four British men of war touched at Velasco few
days since, and took in a supply of beef, &c. They
were bound it is said for the Mexican coast.
The schooner Eliza, last from Galveston, was
wrecked at the mouth of the Brazos a few days ago.
She had a cargo of plB,OOO worth of goods for Messrs.
Smith and Adriance, which are a total loss to the
owners, as they were not insured.—N. 0. Bulletin.
FROM MEXICO.

The New Orleans Bulletin has dates from Mexico
city to the 15th, and from Vera Cruz to the 19th ult.,
being 1. days later than previous intelligence. The
expedition against Yucatan sailed on the last of the
above dates, under the general command of Don Jose
Vincent Minon. General Bravo has taken upon him-
self the responsibilities of the Executive office, and
President Santa Anna has retired to his• plantation for
the benefit of his health, which had became enfeebled.
In a proclamation to the nation he promises, as soon
as his health shall permit, to resume the Executive
functions in accordance with the expressed public will.
MOSEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS.
Nov. 16.—A fair amount of business was trans-
acted in State Stocks this morning. State Five per
Cents. advanced per cent., and Kentucky a ;
State Sevens sold at a decline of f.
Southern Exchanges were dull, with hut little va-
riation in rates.
Our Stock Market shows a decided improvement
in the Stocks of the State and city, their rates having
gradually advanced from 1 to 3 per cent. Ohio, Ken-
tucky, and Pennsylvania Loans have also advanced,
and a better feeling may be said to pervade the market
generally, though no disposition is evinced to specu-
late; the purchases made are altogether for invest-
ments. There is a total absence for all foreign demand.
Money is still quite abundant, though the amount
of paper caused by the renewal of business in the
south gives employment to more of our banking capital.
Foreign Exchanges have been in fair demand at
our quotations, and the departure of two steamers has
left the market rather bare at present. The supply of
paper from the south has thus far been limited ; but as
shipments have commenced, and exchange there on
the north is becoming equalised, we think it probable
the supply will soon increase considerably, which will
scarcely be met •by a corresponding demand—the fall
business being now pretty much over.
In commerce generally, we are sorry to say the
same stagnation prevails as before, and the period of
its revival can only he a matter of vague conjecture.
