The true Democrat., 1854-10-11

from the N. U. Plcayune of Sept. 28, we copy the following letter in relation to the re- volution in Mexico:
 Matamoros, Mex, Sept F, 1854 :.,. The revolution in this part of Mexico has at lastturned out to bea failure. The success with which it commenced, and which encouraged the friends of pro-ress to hope for a complete change of government, was followed by rever- ses, which have finally ended in almost total dispersion of the revolutionists and rveted more firmly, if possible, the chains of the dic- tator upon this unfortunate people. Several causes have combined to bring about this result, want of money, arms, and proper leaders, being amongst the number; but probably the princi- pal one IS found in the energy and enterprise of his Serene Highness, Santa Anna. At the first note of alarm which reached Mexico from this frontier all the available troops within striking distance were put in motion, and a formidable number were soon arraved against the badly armed rancheros of the Rio Grande.
 The arrival yesterday of Coli Castro, with 600 troops, increases the garrison of this city to about l,5OO men, and it is reported that it will be further increased so as to number 4,OOO It is very doubtful, however, if this can be done. as it will weaken other points, and my opinion is, that no more troops can be spared for this frontier. These, however, are sufficient to keep Tamaulipas in subjection, and it would appear that the revoutionists were of that opinion, for, from last accounts, they were in full march for Monterey, where they are in hopes that the in- habitants will join them. Should this be the case and should they get possession of that ci- ty, with its large stores of arms and ammuni- ton, they can bid defiance to all the force that Santa Anna can send against them A few days will tell whether the scattered parties have united and succeeded in this enterprise. or whether they have disbanded and given up the attempt to shake off the yoke of the dictator.
 The Americans on the opposite side of the river have taken but little or no interest in this matter, with the exception of the editor of the American Flag, published in Brownsville, who appears most deeply concerned in the progress and result of the revolution. His paper is fil- led with the most violent abuse of Gen. Woll, Santa Anna, and everybody and everything connected with the government. His course would tend to keep up bad state of feeling between the two frontiers, did not the people know that he does not express the sentiments of the citizens of Brownsville or of Texas.
 Yesterday, the 16th of September, was the an- niversary of Mexican independence, and was celebrated as all such days are, by the firing of cannon, paradlng of troops etc. The two go- vernments through their military representa- tives on the frontiers, Gen. Woll and Mai. G. Porter, took advantage of the day to shake hands across the Rio Grande and to renew their hioh considerations, etc.
 The stars and stripes woved over the main plaza of Matamoros during the day, while the Mexican flag occupied the same position over the battlements of Fort Brown, and each was saluted at meridian with twenty-one guns.
 In connection with this, would mention a handsome thing that Gen. Woll did this morn ing. The soldier who had charge of the Ame- rican flag, owing probably to the patriotic ar dor with which he had celebrated "indepen. dence day." ran it up over the plaza at sunrise, in place of the flag of Mexico Of course ii had to be taken down, but before it was lower ed Gen. Woll had his guns run out and gave it national salute. Such little courte sies have tendency to soften down any little ani. mosities that may happen to exist between the two republics.
 brilliant ball was also given last evening by the Mexican authorities, at which were presen, many of the officers of Fort Brown and citizens of Brownsville. Amongst the former we ob. served Capt. Van Vilet, Lieuts. Gill, Howard and Pelouse, of the artillery, and Lieuts. May. CTS, Winggte and Garber of the infantry.
 Just as 1 am closing, courier has arrived bringing the news that the attempt of the re volutionists on Monterey has been failure. tn, inhabitants of that city refusing to join them Thus ends the Tamaulipas revolution.
 Yours, etc., QUEEN SABE.
