The Laredo mail arrived last evening" bringing IN

the intention of the Revoutonists after taking the
Mace to march at once upon MatamOros ana drive

soped by six hundred men, and il is probable there

The States of Tamaulipas, Coahuila and New Leon
are united in this matter and the only points now
naming in the hands of the Government are Camargo,
Matamoros and Tampico.
Col. Cruz. who was in command at Saltillo, surren-
dered the place without struggle, and retired with
all his forces in the direction OF san Luis Poos With
