FROM THE PACIFIC.
From the New Orleans Delta


We conversed yesterday with gentleman who is
resident of Aazatan, on the Pacific coast Of Mexico.
lie left there about the 18th of June and arrived here
Thursday night by the way Of the city OF Mexico and
Tampco
We learn from him that the blockade of Mazatlan
was still maintained by the soop-ofwar Cyane the com
mo1ore having sailed little while previously for Monte
rey. No immediate design upon Mazatlan was enter
tanned by the commodore, though the Mexicans
excessively alarmed this score, and martial law had
been proclaimed throughout the State consequence Of
the apprehensions of attack Our Informant says II
understood to be the intention of the commodore to
to Mazasn in September, and should peace not
then have been declared to take OF the town
We could learn from him nothing Of the design upon
modore. lie thinks their alarm quite unfounded.
Our informant left the city Of Mexico on the 30th ul
the date of last papers from the capital lie adds lit
tc therefore, to stock Of news. He spoke to us Of
the Notifications of the exicans for the protection of
the city very trifing obstacle to well appointed
army; and he evidently entertained the belief that the
excans would be totally incapable of preventing Cen
no other Of forming judgment the question
Of peace than we have.
While in the city of Mexico he sojourned mt the
house in which countrymen the prsonersare board
ing. They were in good health. lie came down to Tam
pico by different route from that pursued by pr-
soners at Huejutla leaving that town to side
lie thus avoided the numerous guerilla parties which
nfest the main route. o thinks IL very unlikely that
Col De Russy will succeed In eectng the release of
the prisoners force, although he will be oyermntch
for the troops at Huejutla.
We went several other subjects in Mexican az
fairs with informant who Is intelligent foreigner
but TIE papers Of that country have already placed us
city ottcriug state and need not enlarge upon the
theme.
