The daily dispatch. [volume] (Richmond [Va.]) 1850-1884, 1852-11-11
FROM MEXICO.


Byyesterday mornings mail we received our
New Orleans exchanges Of the Sd and 4th in
stauts. The Picayune contains, in detail, the
Mexican news of which we have given a tele-
graphic outline. 1t relates chiefly to the ex.
ira session OF the Mexican Congress and the
impeachment of ministers; YET there are some
other items of interest. The city of Mexico
was in a continued state of alarm. The Uni.
rersal of Oct. Is says:
Spies are making their harvest from the Gre
dnlity and fear of the Government. Last night
| the root of the palace was filled with all The
| munitions of war necessary to resist an attack;
the sentinels were doubled. watches were set,
and all the preparations usual under the pres
sure Of fear or danger were made. Useless
precautions; every one laughs at these steps.
The Siglo of same date says that the explo-
sion of a rocket-bomb in the Plaza de Armas
the night previous, alarmed the government
and the police, and would probably give rise to
new arrests. New papers, Of an ephemeral
character, all directed against the government,
have been started in the city of Mexico. The
usual amount Of pronunc iamentos had been is
sued, of a nature so misce ellaneous that we can
with difficulty define their purport. The con-
dition of Mexico is 10 no measure improved.
fact which is well illustrated by the follow
ing paragraph from the UnirersaI:
The situation Of the frontier States is daily
more and more deplorable, and instead OF de-
cided and efficacious assistance, they receive
only sterile compassion. The enthusiasm
which some time since existed here in their fa
hos Jat In g. 10
| thing is undertaken with resolution and energy
to remove the horrors to which those States
are a prey, and the efforts Of few good citizens
| when they are not destroyed by the Incidence
Of others, are ruined by opposition from those
who should most support them.
FROM TExAs.-We find in the n. Orleans
Picayune some additional items Of news from
Texas. A man named Monroe Black, in
Grinals county, shot man named McGofin,
| because of the refusal of the latter TO lend
| his wagon to Black. The San Antonio Led
ger states tha. Or. Lucian S. Duval, surgeon
of Shaw's Mounted Rangers, was compelled,
in personal defence, to kill a soldier ut the
Mounted Rifle regiment, United States Army.
The San Antonio Western Texan says that q
rumor has reached that city that two of the
citizens, y he were driving in some mules
from Monclova, were murdered on the Alamo
river BY the Indians. The Austin City Ga
zette is out in a long article against Mr. Sec
retary Conrad's letter, refusing to recognize
the companies OF Rangers recently called into
service by Gov. Bell.
FUGITIVE SLAVE CAsE.-We have already
noticed the case Of George Bordley, who was
remanded TO the custody OF his master, by COM
missioner l. Iugrahan, ofPhladelphia, of day or
two since. David Paul Brown appeared, on
behalf of the abolition society of Pennsy lvania.
10 defend the fugitive. In the course Of his
remarks he said:
II sm not here 10 say that the law shall not
have its way. The society which represent
do not deserve the reproach that they are hos
tile 10 the South. Nor do the people Of Penn
sylyania. The agent employed in such cases
meaning Alber,il may generate opposition. i,
may also arise from the persons mixed with
the case. But, where a claimant produces
FIVE or SIX respectful e witnesses TO prove the
identity of tbe fugitive, the society will not
throw further obstacles in the way of the
claimant"
The identity ot the fugitive being clearly es.
tablshed, be was remanded to the custody oil
his owner, and certificate granted. Not the
slightest disposition 10 interfere with the
decision was manifested by those present.
