Arrival Of the Yacht.--Lats and Import.
ant from Mexico..-the Revolution Be-


arrived last evening from BRACES St. Jago,
which she left on the 26th. The Yacht
brought $3l ,3l4 in specie, consigned to va
rious commercial houses.
BY this arrival we have received the Rio
Bravo of the oath, with highly important in
telligence. 1t is known that revolutionary
movement has been for some time going for
ward in Tamaulipas, Coahuila and the ada
cent states, but more particularly on the
Rio Grande frontier. On the Sd inst, the
citizens of Guerrero put forth pronuncia-
mento, followed on the 9Th, by one from Ca
MARCO.
Now for the news, as we find in the Rio
Bravo:
The WAR observation-disclosures, on which
we rely, has just been received from Camar-
go, that sharp skirmish has taken place
between the troops of Carvsjal, and the reg
ulars of the government at that city, in which
a number of men were wounded, and which
resulted in the triumph of the patriots. We
are not informed of the details. There is
no doubt, however, that Camargo is in the
hands of the vctors, and that they arc in
march for Reynosa and Matamoras. The
Government has SO weakened itself by send
ing reinforcements to Camargo, that these
places will fall easily into the hands of the
revolutionists. We learn that Gen. Avalos,
commanding at Matamoras, received the re-
ports of three couriers, yesterday, but what
news they brought, has not transpired. As
there was no demonstration of success, no
Boosting, and as the last company of cavalry,
at the disposal of the General, was despatch
ed last night, towards the seat Of war, we
infer that the patriots are sweeping all bo-
fore them. Thus has commenced a strug-
gle that may regenerate Moxico, and secure
for her people justice and prosperity
The people of the United States will not
stand, with folded arms, Indifferent specta-
tors of this animating scene?
LAST MoMESr.-We just hear that the
commandant of Artillery, on the side of the
Government, was killed, and 80 other per-
sons, military and civil. Camargo is taken
the fight is up.
We have just received by express, seve-
raj letters which we give below, giving the
detail of the battle of Camargo. By a post
script in private letter, we learn that
Mier, and several other towns, are in the
hands of the liberators.
RIO GRAspE CRY, Sept. 20, ii AN.
DEAR 1.-The battle has been desperate

to surrender, with some sixty odd killed and
wounded. Four officers killed, among whom
was Morales. On Caravajal's side, none
killed, and only wounded. The military
surrendered at discretion. Caravajal is now
occupied in foI ming new laws and rcgula-

surgent,, while the Government troops had
one or more pieces. But the cannoneers
were picked off by the rifles until they could
no longer stand it.

on which that letter was written. 1t was
however, postponed until yesterday. The
attack commenced yesterday at 2 o'clock, P

seek refuge in the church and customhouse
The whole force under Col. Caravajal were
three companies, amounting to three or foul
hundred men, if am rightly informed
One company from Guerrero, under com
mand of Don Jose Maria Canales, was pla
ced in front; the second company, almost al
, Americans, was placed i'll the centre, unde
command Of Capt Trcmble; and the thir'
company, from Camargo, under command o
, Don Tomas Cabazos. They were led to tn
/ main plaza by Col. Caravajal, in spite of tn
!, cannon and every other mode of defence
which the Mexican troops could adopt
The houses on the plaza which could aflor'
them any protection, were soon taken, AM
: every Mexican soldier who dared max
, his appearance above the house tops wa
Immediately shot by the Texan rifles.
The battle has not yet closed, though
feel every confidence that Colonel c. and tn
