Doctor Franklin, in his memoirs. gives
the following account Of resusciating flies
that had made a voyage across the Allan

"The flies had been drowned in Madei-

drowned flies fell into the first glass tia,

cd that drowned flies were capable of Le-

posed making the experiment upon tEcse,
they were therefore exposed TO the sun
upon sieve, which had been employed to
strain them cut Of the wine. In about
three hours, two of them began by degrees

hlnd-teet, and soon after began to fly
finding themselves in England, without
knowing how they came thither. The
third continued lieless until sunset. when
losing all hopes OF him, he was thrown
away.

CHARLESTON, Oct. 30.
We have news from North Mexico up to
23d inst. The revolution is still progress
ing and affairs look promising for the in
surgentS.
a small party Of Carvaial's troops hav-
ing been fired upon from Matamcras, they
rushed into the city and seized the Custom
House, but were afterwards compelled to
retire with the loss of three men the loss
of the MeXicans in this skrmish is said to
be heavy. Carvaial is hourly expecting
reintorcements, and had made preparations
for storming Matamoras on the following
day. A large body of Mexican reinforce
mcnts from Tampico and Vera Cruz had
arrived at Brazos, but hearing that there
was detachment of 200 Texans between
them and Matamoras, they concluded not
to proceed any further. Many United
States troops had deserted and joined Car
vajal.
a later report says, that N1atamoras
was captured on Friday or Saturday.
New ORLEANS, Nov. 3.
Steamer Fanny from Brazos had arri-
we'd with dates TO 3O,h; the emigrants had
obtained possession Of the west portion Of

were provided with artillery, and would
hold out to the last they were daily ex-

among whom was General Avalus the
loss Of the insurgents was three killed and
fifteen wounded; among the latter were
Captain Ford and Wardwell. the Amcri-
can Consul; Mr.. Longstreet, an Ameri-

was quiet, and nothing had occurred since the
sailing of the Georgia

Havana, thirteen Of whom were in the Hospital
(none, however, dangerously sick) and two in
prison.
Commander Parker had had an interview with
the captain-genera, who promised speedy trial
to Rober, G. Breckenridge and Ransom Beach,
of Kentucky, who were captured few days ago
at sea, by Spanish merchant vessel They be

The United States Stcamer Mississippi.

A letter has been received in Norfolk. from an
officer in the Mississippi, dated Marseles, Sep
tember 9th, announcing her arrival at that place
on the preceding day, with General Kossuth and
his companions in exile. We have had later
accounts than this, which show that she had
subsequently left there for Southampton, Eng.
land, it was supposed, from which place she
would come with the exiles to the United States ;
but the Norfolk Argus, on the authority of the
letter received there, says:
"The generals movement were very uncer.
tain; it was his wish to visit England with mis-
lady and children, with few of his suite, pass.
ing through France, to remain in London about
five days. leaving his family there, then to reioin
the Mississippi at Gibraltar-she to wait for hin
there some fifteen or twenty days. Should any
thing happen to prevent his rejoining the ship,
she will probably proceed with those who desire
TO come to the Uuited States. Should her pas
sengers alter their minds as to proceeding to
this country, it is supposed she will resume her
station. But should she proceed home with the
emgrants, it is not expected that they will reach
New York before the lst of December. They
will take the Southern passage, thus securing
good weather all the way, though the passage
will be heightened some days. Nothing will be
definitely known about her movements until her
arrival at Gibraltar

from taking any part whatever in the contest. If
the Mexican revOlutionists can hDd no better
leader, their case ia to be deplored. Their chance
of success is, we fear, hopeless one Can il
be possible that any intelligent Mexican will
put faith in such man as Canales, whose high
est ideas of patriotism consists in filling his own
pockets, and whose highest qualities ss general
do not go further Than to employ spies and secret
agents, to corrupt and buy over the wretched
soldlery of his opponent. The public good, and

Every true hearted Mexican, who desires TO pre-

emphatic terms. Were there no other method

would not disgrace the glittering steel to stain

TEXAS VOLUNTEERS FOR CUBA.-The Nueces
Valley of the 22d ult., informs us that of the
two companies concentrated at Mustang Island
awaiting transportation to Cuba, about half
have left for home, and the remainder forming
themselves into new company, elected off
GERS, and expected to leave for the seat of war
the Northern States of Mexco-in few days.
The Valley says
They will doubtless be joined by many
friends of freedom" previous to their depar
ture. The unfortunate and bloody termination
of the Cuban enterprise has created much ex-
citement throughout Western Texas and many
who have been silent sympathizers heretofore,
have bt come active, and are ready and willing
TO lend hand wherever freedoms flag is un.
furled, where those who would be free are now
groaning under the oppression of mis-called
republican government The blow has already
been struck, the standard of liberty floats in the
breeze ;and it is our prayer, that all who op.
pose it may be vanquished, that proud Mexico
may be "humbed to the DUST"

ryy- Tie revolution in northern Mexico

eY- The revolution ia northern Mexico be-
aspect than was at first apprehended. IL is yet
a question how far Americans are mixed up with
it. Three hundred are said to have joined
CARvAJAL from Texas, and, if true, they will no
doubt be useful auxiliares; and, though few in
numbers, not little influential in all that
touches the movement.
The commence ment of a revolution so near
the United States boundaries, will naturally
suggest TO the mind the interposilion of our
countrymen; and, any way, it is impossible for
them to avoid taking an interest in what is 80
near to them. The contiguity of a nation of
selfgoverning Europeans is, of ITSELF provoca-
tive of revolution. No people, however morally
misled, can shut themselves out entirely from
the influences and example of neighborng
freer system. Mexico is a mere mockery OF a
republic. In her, as in other of the new repub-
lican Spanish States, the great essential condi-
ton of liberty moral reformation, has never yet
commenced. She contains within herself, on
the contrary, two undying, antagonistic princi-
ples-absolutism in action, in all that concerns
her morally, and liberty, in name only, which
she grasps at instnctvely, without comprehend
ing its depth, its force, or its obligations.
Internal anarchy is the result-revoution the
perpetual type of its existence -dissenlion, mill
tary dictatioD, idleness. indifference, want of
energy, and misery, is the real condition of the
country. To such people, the prosperity, the
spirit, the intelligence of the Americans, is
perfect mystery; and they are themselves 80 far
removed from that moral independence, which
is the secret of our progress, that their attempts
at imitation arc absolutely useless and ludcrous.
Thus, thinly scattered as we are towards
those regions, and though not occupying tenth
part of the lands lying on their borders we, the
more enterprising nation, just as naturally find
ourselves ever encroaching upon the other, in
Auencing and directing it; as the other, the
Mexican, aware of its feeb eness, and despite OF
its hatreds and prejudices, follows, initiates, and
appeals to us for aid, for counsel, and for action
So appealed the down. trodder, mystified ma
TONS to the Roman people, until Rome at
length embraced the world, and civilized it by
her noble principles.

Acting Secretary of State.

The above Proclamation has been issued, we
understand, in consequence of intelligence re-
ceived on Monday evening from our Consul at
Matamoros, to the effect that company of Tex
ans had been organized and had marched into
Mexico, and that new enlstments were in pro-
gress for similar movements
All the information previously received at the
War Department was of nature to discounte-
nance the idea that any expedition was on foot,
or that considerable number of American cti
zens had passed into Mexico for the purpose of
taking part in any insurrection. 1t was reported
that only some twenty individuals, suspected OF
such intentions, had passed the frontier; and il
was believed that the American nation was to
be spared this new accession of misfortune and
disgrace, arising from the violation of our own
laws, the laws of nations, and our treaty obliga-
tions-RepubHc
