MUNICH, Nos. as.

In Art. 10 of the commercial I onvention concluded between
the kingdoms of Bavaria and Wurtemburg on the one band, and
the kingdom of Prussia and the Grand Duchy of Hesse on the
other, it is stipulated that the Consuls of either of the contracting
Powers residing in foreign sea ports and commercial towns shall
be.instructed to afford protection and assistance to the subjects of
the other parties ; in reference to this article the Minister for
Foreign Affairs has published a list of the Consuls and commercial
agents of Prussia in foreign ports.
His Majesty is still waned to his room by the hurt in his foot,
which. however, is gradually, though slowly, getting better, and
does not binder him from devoting the greatest attention to the
affairs of Government. A change In our Ministry Is still spoken
of.—Franifert Papers. Noe. 49.

A Mexicin Mail has arrived this day, bringing files
of the Curreo de Mexico to the 17th Sept. The news
from that quarter has been anticipated. We give the
following extracts to thew the determined spirit of oppo-
sition that animated the Mexicans previous to the defeat
of the Spaniards :
MEXICO, Sm. 13.
We have before us letters front New Orleans to the 50th August,
which affirm that the second expedition from the Havannas was to
sail on the 24 or 3d instant, and that its foree would amount to
3,000 men. Many asserted that it would go to Vera Cruz, but we
cannot believe this. It Is most natural that its plan should be to
reinforce the division of General Barradas, which cannot be very
strong at present. However, we must not neglect any point, as
the enemy has the advantage of knowing where be will attack us,
and we cannot obtain certainty on this point.
The invaders have published a commercial notice, in which they
exempt from all duties provisions of every kind, except flour, which
is to pay half the duty feed by the Tariff of the Havannah—i. e.
four dollars per barrel.
Many Spanish vessels were at New Orleans, preparing to sail
with such articles for the expedition. At Tamaulipas, at Tornado
los logieses, there were 1,300 or 1,400 Spaniards, ready to em-
bark for some point on our coast, opposed to be Matamoros or
Soto de la Marina.
The Spaniards are making their last efforts to assert imaginary
rights on a free people. We have received no news from the Said
of battle, but we know that the enemy's force was daily growing
weaker, and that our army was actively engaged in the necessary
fortifications. General Santa Anna was to attack the enemy be-
tween the Bth and 10th inst.
The Mexican troops were eager for battle, and besought the
Commander-in-Chief to lead them to the attack. Our forces are
about 0,000 men. under Generals Santa Anna, Fern, Corlazar,
Velasquez, and Valdrureso. We do not know to what point the
,Army of Reserve is to go, which is commanded by the valient Ge-
neral &momenta accompanied by able and brave officers.
Sam 14.—The Dorm of this date contains a Decree of the Pre-
sident, by which the widows of the bikers who have died during
their banishment, on account of the plan of Montano, are to be re-
lieved by the Monte Pio; and the officers themselves implicated
in that plan. who may be in many parts of the territory of the Rs-
public, are immediately to present themselves, in order to be re.
stored to their rank, as their services may be employed so Mon-
uge in the present commotion. of the Republic. This, says the
Caro, may serve to quiet the alarms of those who realty believed
that the eztraordinary powers granted to the Executive might be
abused. We see that it is most inclined to show moderation
and indulgence, and to offer a reconciliation between all the
Mexicans, and has began by pardoning those who were banished
on account of the affairs of Tuiandngo. We have reason to expect
that this amnesty will be extended to all those implicated in Moe•
tano's plan.
An express from this army, received to-day, brings word that
our General would begin his attack on the Bth. As the 24
Spanish expedition was to sail on the 6th or 7th, It will probably
reach our shores about the 23d or 24tb, by which time the division
already landed will be nearly ruined.
The Corm of the 14th and 13th contains an article en the jostles
of declaring war against the United States of North America.
Great rejoicings were making in Mexico to celebrate the anni•
versary of the independence of the Republic.—Corree xis Maim,

The character of General BOLIVAR does not stand in
need of support against the diatribes of libellers ; but
when there is a systematic attack making on the illus-
trious Chief of Colombia by anonymous ;though well
known—newspaper writers, and by persons styling
themselves historians of the President LIBERATOR
and his Country, because the LIBERATOR has taken
measures to put down anarchy, and combine order
with liberty—it is a duty to 'put the world on its
guard against these machinations. In such a feeling,
we give publicity to the following letter from the brave.
General O'LLAiv, commenting upon a work pub-
lished last year by Cot. Dunn, and ushered into the
world with all the authority of an authentic narrative,

EXTRACT Or A• LETTER PROM GENERAL O'LEARY
TO A TRIEND IN TOWN.

I have by chance seen a few extracts from a work
entitled " Recollections of a Service of three years,
during the war of extermination in the Republics of
Venezuela and Colombia," by an Officer of the
Colombian Army, published last year. The author seems
to be a clever man, for his capability of invention is cer-
tainly very great. I doubt if William Tell pulled the bow
with more spirit. In about three columns of the Albion, in
which I found the extracts I allude to, the apple is bit in
every line. I shall only take the trouble, notwithstanding,
of giving the author a dementi formel as far as my name
is concerned. The gentleman has been pleased to say,
that " at the .further end • sat Colonel 01.ziatv,
then one of his Excellency's Secretaries, on the ground,
with a small writing-desk on his lap, writing dispatches of
a military nature, to the dictation of BoLIvAL, who—at
the other end of the room—was sitting on the edge of
a large South American cot, slung from the ceiling. To
avoid the inconvenience of the hest, he was unencum
