Late from Mexico and California.
By the arrival of the British steamer Clyde,
in Mobile Bay, on Wednesday evening, we
have received files, of FL StglO and LIE Trait
d'UatOn from the city Of Mexico to the 18th
inst.
We find in the Truit d'Union Of the 9th,
Voluminous documents illustrative Of the pres
ent condition Of The multitudes lately arrived
in California, and tho difficulties which beset
the laborer in collecting the precious metal on
the placers. They give an uniavo rable aspect
to all. Perhaps-andit is very likely-there is
some exaggeration in them, arising from disap-
point'nent: but as all the accounts hitherto re-
ceived from that half fabulous land have been
coW!eUr de rose, we deem it just and proper and
necessary even, TO give the other side Of the
picture. Every medallion has its reverse.
We shall at first, however, insert the news
later than that which was received by the
Crescent City. This will be found in the lol-
lowing paragraph, taken from the correspond
ence OF the Topic GGUiOtG Of the Goth ult., and
is Of a very painful character, if true.
An express arrived the day before yester-
day from Mazatlan, in FIVE days and a nalf,
bringing intelligence from San Francisco to
the 10th of May. At that date everything was
in disorder in California. The Governor with
his troops had been obliged to take refuge on
