LATER FROM THE GULF SQUADRON.
TAXING OF LAGUNA.

By the arrival of the prize schooner Amalo
taken off Alvarado on the 9Th u't., by the U. S.
steamer Mississippi, our neighhors Of the Mercu-
~ (says The y. o. Picaynne Jan. 9)yeserday re-
ceivcd later news from The squadron and an &C
conn, OF The taking Of Laguna by Com. Perry.
II seems that Com p. arrived Of that place on
The ooh ult., with the steamers Mississippi, Pc
uel, Vixen and Bonita, and The same day took
possession Of the place without opposition. Fit.
teen cannon were destroyed, some 900 lbs. Ct
powder taken, and fifty soldiers disarmed, although
the latter affected 10 be iavorab!y disposed 10 thr
cause Of the Campeachians. Tie latter had DC
clared themselves entirely indcrrnd' nj OF Mex.
CT, and had sent their ccmIi sanefS on nc
schooner Sisanio to CON- Conner, al Anton Ii
zardo, 10 request him 10 dcsist from any hostile
measures against Yucaan until commissioners
could be sent 10 the Government! OF The U. States
to obtain the recognition OF The Stale. These COM
mssioneIs left Anton Lizardo on The 20th, 10 re-
turn, but The result of their conference with Com.
Conner is not known. We happen 10 be among
those who do not altogether believe in The sinceri-
~ oil these YucaIanese. A double game has been
played on that COAST all summer, and me inhaoi-
lanis require The closest kind OF watching.
Our readers may recollec that We mentioned.
a few days since, that boa, from the john Adams
had made thorough night examination OF The
castle nt San Juan de Ulua. The lollicer who
had charge OF The boat, as we learn from The MeT-
curry, was Passed Mdshipman Fitzgerald. He
had eight men in his boat, with muiiled oars. and
in The darkness OF the night rowcd round and
rouns The castle went under the drawbridcc enter
ed The water battery, and made thorough recon-
noissance of every part. This gallant exploit
has proved ha, men may be landed from boats al
night and that tie wafer batteries may easily be
taken.
Com. Perry on his return to Anton Lizardo
from Lasuna looked in at Alearado and Tabas-
CO. and found that the Qualifications Of both places
have tecn repaired and strengthened since they
were attacked by the squadron. Al Tabasco
there were about thee thousand troops, and al
Alvarado about four thousand. Noiwihsi andins
these formidable preparations, he general i'm
preston is that Com. Conner will soon attack
these places.
On the arrival OF Gen La Vega at Vera Cruz
on The 18th, all The prisoners ftom the squadron
in the hands of The enemy were released. II is
now ascerlained that bu, eleven u The crew OF
the Somers driiled 10 The main land when she was
wrecked, and no, sixteen, as was first stated.
Midshipman Rogers was al Vera Cruz. He
had been Tried by the civil and military tribunals
as a spy, and had been acquitted by the former,
but found guilty by the lauer. Ii was believed
however, that the more favorable verdict would
prevail. and lha, he would be liberated.
