to Matamoras He distributed that documen,
through the American camp, saying the
American government Is unworthy of a chris
tian name. 1t is directed to English and Irish,
under orders of Ampudia. Gen. Taylor appears
to them as being born in Great Britain--refers to
our antipathies to their birthplace, and to the ef
iorts 70 take Oregon, and calls on them with conf
dence, to come TO the Mexican ranks, and guaran

arrival at the beautiful capitol "Germans, Poles,
| French, and individuals of other nations, separate
butte to robbery and usurpation, which civilized
Europe will look upon with the utmost indigna-
ton. Come and array yourselves under the tr-
coored flag, in confidence towards that naticn
| that has got armies to protect you and the Mexi-
can flag equally with English"
