From the New Orleans Delta, Nov 10
tor Forward, Capt. Nones, yesterday, fro IN We're
Cruz, We are In possession Of our fles of Mexican
papers, among which are journals from the capital
to the 9TH inst inclusive.
The whole country seems to be in n state of agi-
tatien and the news indicates wide spread diss
faction, particularly on the Gulf coast The GO
verDment appears to be inpotent, and every effort
abortion, the treasury being bankrupt. The imme-
date cause Of dissatisfaction is the discussion of
pr0hibitory tariff.
The return of Gen Garay to Tampico, witheut
succoring Avslos at Matamoras,Hs looked upon as q
strange circumstance, and it is intimated that the
government will hold him to q rigorous accounts
bility. The steamer Neptune, on which he en-
barked with the men and arms destined to aid in
the defence Of Matamoras, was eight days reaching
the mouth Of the Rio Grande. The delay is said to
have been caused by norther, which compelled
the vessel to take shelter under the island Of Lobos
for several days. On arriving at Point Isabel,
Gen. Garay learned that the river was not deep
enough for the Neptune to go to Matamoras. and
ne transferred his men and cannon to small Ame-
rican steamer But when he had assembled halfthe
distance to Matam0ras, he was informed that If he
proceeded further he would place himself in the
power OF Canales, who had Joined the besieging
insurgents, aud who had under his command a
large force, Of which considerable part were deser-
tiers from the American army the whole garrison ct
Brownsville, the Mexican papers say, with their
accustomed audacity, having crossed the river to
join the revolutionary forces by the connvance Of
the officers who commanded them. Garay, on hear
ing this, as we have already been appraised by direct
news from the Rio Grsnde, turned about, and re-
embarked his men and munitions on the Neptune,
and sailed for Tampico, where he had arrived, and
the above excuse was made fer him. 1t is further
said, to account for his conduct that the authori-
ties and people Brownsville tire atened that they
would not permit him to go to the relief of Avaos.
The Sigii0, published at the capital, apprehend-
ing the surrender OF Mstamoras to Caravajal,
observes that the affair had become one momen-
teus to the nation, and that If promp. and efica-
Of Mexico would be at an end If Matamoras fell,
that paper argues, Tampico was exposed to an easy
conquest in its present condition 1t should have
garrison Of fifteen hundred men, and vessel Of war
on the bar to defend it seward, the Sigtlo adds,
for II the rebels had possession of Matamoras they
could enter the river and ascend TO the city ny
steam, II there was no national vessel to prevent
them.sa
By the following, which We translate from the
Ir0H Union, it will be seen that the insure ,tion
has extended into the State of Vera Cruz, and that
there are premonitions of rising in the State Of
Puebla. The TRAIT d Union says
Cordovs has also sent forth its pronunciamento. The
objects OF the movement not definitely set forth,
but the declaration is appended to proclamation the
purpose VI which, according to some to separate tho

tired Lieut. Col Felipe Romire who on the 22d Octo-
ber shut themselves in the convent Of St Augustin
and there raised the standard Of rebellion In this posi-
ton they held parey with the Ayuntamisnto, OF
whom they demanded the reinstatement Of the political
Chief and the Chief Justice Of the Department The
Ayuntsmiento sfeigned to sympathize with them The
insurgents not being strong enough in numbers to leave
their position the authorities Of Cordova found time to
address those at orzsba city, who at once sent them
three hundred Of the National Guards whe reached
Cordova on the evening OF the 3D. The rebels having
heard Of the arrival Of this took
refuge in the hacienda of Porrero but not without the
following prisoners being taken, viz Capt Gomez Ss-
Iavfn the Regidor Juan 6omez; spaniard named Juan
Truebs, and two other individuals whose names not
given.

IL does not appear that the disturbance stopped
here. The Fray Fotde Of the Sd ult says
According to reports we have received, the guerilla

The 1foa d Union, Of the 9th inst, commenting
Oh this news, says;-
Thus this mysterious uprising mus. be considered
suppressed ana it very probable that We shau have
nothing to chronicle In the matter but the sub
mis- sion "a the insurgents.
Whether these antieipations were realized, IL, We
think, very dubious, for in the very same paper We
end letter from Puebla, which we translate, and
which, although 20 what ambiguous, Is sufficiently
clear to portend trouble in that quarter The let

The Mexican papers have received the San Fran

any extracts, or even to give US q summary Of the

Francisco Herald, Of Oct. III, on the "Acqusition
Of Territory" in which II Is asserted that the prn
