THE DAILY DISPATCH
FROM AiEXlCO.

Through our New Orleans exchanges we
have received news from Mexico to the Sd
instant.
The news from Vera Cruz is described as
distressing. The Parvenir OF that city contains
an article, from which we clip the following cx-
tract:
affairs are becoming quite complicated, and
, are beginning TO assume an important and
= fearful aspect. The foreign ministers have
presented formal protest against the evils
which have been brought on by Avalos's tariff.
When applied to by the representatives OF
friendly nations, who asked for compensa ton
for the injury which their lellow-ctizens suffer-
ed from the unevennss produced by the exis-
tence Of two tariffs, the Government offered to
bring Matamoros under the same rule, and
order its authorities TO lay the same duties
which were exacied in the other ports of the
republic. The Government has been ca Their
unable or unwilling to fulfil its promise, and
the iniqutous rates of the Avalos tariff are
exacted, whilst in other cities the regular legal
tariff is alone paid. This has been the cause
ofthe protest, in which all the foreign minis
tiers have joined"
From another paper we learn that Camargo
is also subjected to protective tariff, as well
as matamoros. Here, it is the tariff imposed by
Gen. Canaies.
The papers seem disconnected with the Sen.
ate's delay and inattention. They are afraid
that the Republic may soon be converted into
chaos. ts
The mail was robbed at Guadalajara and
valuable letters taken; several persons met
with large losses thereby, among whom is
Senior ID. Justo Corro, who lost four thousand
dollars. This event has suspended the send.
ing of drafts through Guadalajara, and has
greatly annoyed the merchants, who have held
several meetings upon the subject The en-
ployees of the Office have been suspended and
delivered into the hands Of the District Judge,
ID. Juan Antonio Robes, who is to examine
into the offence.
The Universal, of the I'd inst says: "The
Tumor was spreading yesterday that Govern
meut had received telegraphic dispatch an
n0uncing a Dr0aunciament0 in Vera Cruz.
We do not believe this dispatch and suppose
II was invented for the purpose of alarming
U.S."
A bill has been proposed in the House regu-
1ating the liberty of the Press; also, one allow
ing the Territory of Lower California to be
represented not only by Mexican citizens
by birth, but also those who have been natu-
rallied.
The Moniteur Republicans contradicts the
rumor that Letcher, the American Minister, had
stated to the Government that all diplomatic
intercourse would be suspended between the
United States and Mexico, if the Congress of
the latter Republic did not ratify, by the 9Th
of April, the treaty relative to the right of way
across the Isthmus of Tehuantepec.
Senior Castillo has introduced into the Sem
ate bill to repeal the decree of February %,
1882, in regard to foreigners, and imposing the
penalty of expulsion from the Mexican terri
tory on every unnaturalized foreigner who
may be judicially convicted of having taken
part in any revolutionary movement, of having
abused the liberty of the press, or of having
been engaged in smuggling. Under the pre-
sent laws foreigner may be expelled simply
on suspicion and without judicial inquiry.
