From MATAMoRos.-We yesterday received the
Matamoros Flag of the 9th ult. 1t contains little
of interest here. Mr.. GARNER, French merchant
residing in MatamorJs, was murdered lately between
Monterey and Camargo The possession of his
money was the object of the murder. A Mexican
gentlemen, just from Monterey, informs the Flag
that Bustamente is on his way to Matamoros with
500 cavalry The Flag remarks:
whether the growing spirit of rebellion in
Northern Mexico has called these men here, or not,
is left to conjecture 1t is thought Gen Busiamente
will make Matamoros his headquarters. The for
saken, forlorn-desponding desparAg, senortas
should spruce up. The young military Mexican
Hytspurs will supply the Place in their affections
left vacant by the departure Of los YankeeS''
