The Blockade" is still off the harbor, their
orders being, under the penalty Of death, to
permit no vessels to enter. What the result of
their firing into our mail steamers, after Cap
tain Dornin of the Portsmouth's letter, remains
for the sequel to prove.
Colonel Encarnacion Alvarez, son of the
General, is at the head of six hundred guerilas
on the frontier. He has already captured two
Thousand FIVE hundred head of cattle from the
Government forces, and taken q number Of
prisoners.
The General has issued an address to the
soldiers of the north, which is full of valor,
patriotism, and hatred of tyranny, and to
those who take an interest in such matters, is
an address worthy the chieftain Of the revolu-
ton.
Santa Annals Commissioners, appointed to
sell the property of those engaged in the revo-

NJ Sick Headache Remedy.--A remedy for

IL Sick Headache Remedy.-A remedy for
the-sick headache which has been recently offered
TO the public is attracting great attention. not only
by of the very satisfactory testimonials TO
its efficacy which have been volunteered by many
who have been benefited by it, but also because
there are SO great number of people who are af
ficted with the distressing complaint, for which
no medicine has before been made public. Dr.
Eastman, who discovered the efficacy Of his ''rem-
edy" is physician in this city, in high standing,
great confidence is placed; and we do not wonder
that his remedy for very common disease, which
has been so long needed has attractedhe attention
of all sufferers from headache who have heard of it.
From our own knowledge of DR.. Eastman's char
acter and practice, we have no doubt that the med
icine deserves the favor il receives and that it will
prove to be great benefit to all who may give il
a trial.-Lynn Neos, December 80, 1853.

From the New Orleans Della of Saturday.
The Revolution I'm the south OF Mexico.
Our attentive correspondent at Acapulco
gives US the following intelligence relative to
the progress of the revolution in the Southern
States of Mexico, headed by the inextinguished
Alvarez, who, though killed several times dur
ing the present struggles, appears to wage a
very active war for dead man.
AcAPULoo, Mexico, Oct. 20, 1864.
By the news received from the City ofMexico
per Judge Rose, bearer of dispatches, who was
detained twelve days in Chilipancingo by the
government troops, owing to the demonstration
made on the 10th of September, by the people
against the present administration, and which
the soldiers were unable to suppress, together
with the victories on the Rio Grande, Of the
Alvarez party, his serene highness, Santa
Anna, removed with o strong force to Teuka-
buya. His seven millions are nearly, if not quite
exhausted, and his own troops will revolt the
moment he stops payment.
The spirit of revolution has spread through
out the entire republic, and it is correctly re-
ported that Santa Anna cannot hold out sixty
days longer. His serene highness has quarrel
ed with the whole foreign diplomatic corps, and
has made application for the recall of the Brit
ish minister.
In Guerrero things are going on prosperously,
and although price has been set on Alvarez's
head, having seen him a few days ago, was
was much surprised to find him in such excel
lent health and spirits. He says he has deter
mined upon his independence, the adopting of
new and liberal Constitution and laws similar
to the United States, separating Church from
State affairs, inviting emigration, having good
and wholesome laws, and permitting every man
to worship God in accordance with the dictates
of his own conscience.
Alvarez "is liberal, patriotic, and, withall,
Democrat of the Jeffersonian school, and it is
a great loss for this country that there is not a
host of Alvarez"
will add that courier this moment has ar
rived, bringing news of an engagement at
place called "Cucuas," between the limits OF
the States of Guerrero and Michoacun. The
Alvarez force was under the command of Gen.
Jalyaro, who put to fight the Santa Anna force
under command of General Andrade, killing
800, among whom were General Kuintene and
his aid Many were wounded, and a number
taken prisoners. The Alvarez loss was trifing.
When the government troops were retreating,
they shouted-"ViUd ell Sur q Alpdrez"
