From late advices received from Halifax, it ap-
pears the Britannia, which sailed from Boston on

supposed she had been detained by fog
Further news is anxiously expected from Eng
land. The Great Western sailed for this port from
Liverpool on the Both ult. She is now out nine
days and may be expected to arrive in three four
days from this time. One of the Cunard steamers
sailed from Liverpool on the 4th inst for Boston.
She is out five days, and may be expected to arrive
about this day next week, that in about a week
from this time, if nothing happens, we shall likely
hear what the English and French people-the Eng
sh and French press-thnk and say Of our gallant
little war against Mexico. 1t Is always agreeable
to know what our nelghbors think and say about
With cause clear and just as II is, we have moth
ing to fear from the opinions, frowns smiles of
others. We are Of age, and must manage our own
affairs, redress own grievances, al the time and
in the manner we may consider best. We want no
guardian to balance our scales for u.s. to dictate
our course. Being sure we are right we shall
continue to 60 ahead

The Courier des Etats Uns of to-day undertakes
to point out many difficulties in way Of making
conquest of San Juan de Ulloa, or Of marching
into Mexico with a view Of reaching the capital

itself all over country diversified by interest and
climate, very remarkable, and calculated to exercise
powerful moral influence on Great Britain.

Boston, endorsed by the Tribune of a traitorous
character.
