A despatch dated at New Orleans on Monday
mentions the arrival of the steamer Fanny from
Texas, with dates to the lst instant. The revolu-
ton on the Rio Grande was then at stand. Gen.
Carvajal still remained at Camargo. The people
of that place had held meeting, and resolved to
sustain the revolutionary pronunciamiento. The
Mexican troops there were allowed to march out
with the honors of war. The Revoutionists were
determined to defend the place. A report having
reached Matamoros that the invaders were prepar-
ing to march them, the inhabitants, including all
the women and children, had fled, leaving only $50
men behind.
