news:
GUaIMAs.-There was a report in Vera Cruz
on the 81 inst, that Guamas had been attacked
by the Americans, and after the loss of TWEEN
ty-Gve men, they were obliged to dcsist, with
out being able to land.
Last month, (Septcnber,) at Angeles, there
was mutiny, which as not got under until
many were killed and wounded. The French
Consul at Monterey, Mons. Gasquet, had been
made prisoner, on the Goth September, by the
Americans, for having protested against the &C.
cupation of California. An English vessel
Immediately sailed for the Marquesas with
raj. The American squadron is represented
by the Mexcans as exceedingly weak The
hen disembarked are consequently so few,
that some of the points garrisoned by the
Americans, have only eight or ten men for
their protection. The whole coast of the two
Californias are under blockade. A story is
related of Z native chief, whose son was killed
some time ago, having, within the last three
months, appeared at the head Of 1000 of his
tribe, demanding PREPARATION. A United States
intention Of taking possession of that place;
but the captain of the port, Spencer, with two
or three guns, aided by a body of volunteers,
fired on her, killing and wounding several Of
her crew. She was obliged to retire. There
was only one ship-of-war of the United States
