We have received the following letter from Capt.
Moves, who arrived at Philadelphia yesterday after

one 10 u.s. II shows that the Mexicans have already
issued letters Of marque against American CON-
merce or that pirates are taking advantage OF the
position of affairs between the two countries, by
cruizing for plumber in the Southern ocean.
Il may be that Mexico has issued secret orders to
her small marine to cruize against our vessels
This outrage on the Sea Flower may be one of the
results Of the secret military movements spoken OF
by the Dia,fo del Gobieyno a short time ago.

scented to, and they promised to return forthwith
This however, they did not do, and the next day
passed over in like manner, until Sunday coming
on il prevented the removal Of the corpse to Ran

this evening. Some blame is due TO those persons
who interposed to prevent the last rites from being
performed at an earlier time and breaking their
