"The brig DsEfna, which cleared hence on
Monday last, ostensbly for Belize Honduras
under Persian colors, was manned, as we I'M
derstand, almost exclusively by Mexicans, and
some suspicious having attached to her move
ments, we learn that the Collector of the port
has sent to the Southwest Pass directions for a
revenue cutter to be despatched after her. The
Delfna loaded here, and cleared with $50 bar
rels flour and 100 pigs lead; but it is understood
that below the city she took on board a con-
siderable quantity powder. She is probably
designed for some Mexican port with these mu-
nitions of war;

"SAvE ME FROM FRIENDS" Can now very ap-
proprately be the language of President Polk. The
New York Herald, paper which in Its ''neutraE'
character did as much for his election any other
is down on him like ''thousand of brick" The
Journal of Commerce, devoted to the Commercial
interest labored strong for him for the sake of his
Free-Trade measur es but 10 Sub-Treasury and
War-of all things most destructive to commerce
come in advance and precludes the Repeal of the
Tariff. of course, then, the Journal consigns him
10 political grave without benefit of Clergy. The
Charleston Mercury has long since left him to his
fate. In fine Polkjnce is fast sourng. Polk leaves
are withering and all the blood shed in Mexico will
be unable to revive them. The very power which
has So lately been placed in the hands of the Presi
dent, will work infinite mischief to the nation, and
prove his destruction.

Of food The writer says: "Should the drought
continue until May or June, we shall have few per-
SONS left here. They have already begun to flock
to PerDambuco, the capital; and if opportunity Of
fers, all that remain will Immediately follow" The
writer was at leo on the 9th Of February, and he
there saw families, who short time since enjoyed
abundance, begging from door to door "They APP
peared," he remarks, ''more like skeletons than any
thing else. Many dying in the streets of want
daily; and the deaths were so numerous that the
amount Of mortality could not be estimated" Arti.
