INVASION OF MEXICO.
Fran tn, y,,,. Oyl.an, Pieav,ne .fuQ. 2.

From The yel7. Orleans Pieay.ne, Aug. g.
The Texas mails of this morning bring us accounts
of an organization Of military force within the United
States III aid of the revolution IN Northern Mexico.
The San antonio Ledger of the 25ih contains letter
from lie correspondent, dated at Leone River on the
18th Of July detailing 1.-The movements of the aux
iary force intended for the overthrow OF the Santa
ANNA Government In Mexico and the establishment
" OF government favorable to the interests OF
" Texas" The first part of The expedition arrived at
that place the 18th ult, and men were said to be
coming in hourly in great Dumbers and TO De expected
with great anxiety on the other side of the river. The
party expected to within five days-that il
to say about the oath nit. They are under the COM
msnd of Capt w. b. Henry, late of the Tex4 Volun-
tcers.
Accompanying this correspondence is An address by
Capt. Henry TO the people of Texas, and procama-
ton addressed TO the Mexcans.
The address to the people of Texas announces the
purpose of himself and hi. companions to engage in
the revolution existing in the Mexican Repub-
" ic TO displace the far famed Santa Anna and estab
" lish new republican form of government agovern-
81 ent more favorable to the interests of Texas,
enlightened in lie views, and NTH the fnal Intention
Of extending the proud american eagle orer as pro-
d" lection F"
He appeals to Texas in the strength of her revou-
tOnary experience and example, and incites them by
representing the bordering country of Mexico rs the
refuge OF Indian marsuders, who perpetrae crimes,
robberies and murders within Texas, which distress
oil lovers Of peace and order" Ii is the interest
Of peace and order" that Mexico is invaded.
The proclamation 20 the Mexicans, published along
SIDE of the other III the paper, talks much more
mildly than that intended for the Texans. 1t does
have word about extending the American eagle over
Mexico but declares the wish to Me1icaLs govern
themselves.
"Our only wish, the only reward we seek for, aud
with which shall return happy to fresides, Is 70
see pesiablished the federal system aud TO secure
treaties 10y which the interests OF both countries shall
be protected, and which will allow to exchange
products with yours, without fear of mole tati0n,
unoer the protection of Just and equitable tariffs, thus
giving new impulse TO the prosperity Of both coun-
tries
Nothing is sta ted in this paper TO give idea of
the numbers collected for this foray the borders
The dustin State Times of the 2sth ult. SAYS that
within few weeks than twenty runaway
groes have passed at great distance from that city,
on their way 10 Mexico, and adds:
The number of negroes fleeing from their masters
and endeavorng to reach Mexico makes il mperiousy
necessary something should be done TO arrest the evil
We can more feasible plan than the one long
sill oe suggested. BY aiding the liberal party 10 Mex
100 we accomplish arrangement which will
make slavery as secure in Texas any State in the
Union"
The Ner-OrleaAs Delta regards the success of the
revOuh0nsis ID Me1ico!as already certsio and with
reference to the result says: that next to The removal
OF all restrictions on commercial intercourse between
Mexico and this country, the most impo tact benet
10 both 8onates will be the openiry of the former
10 emigration from the United States.
The statesmen who lead the present revolution
g. oroughly of the fact to which we alIufe
and have pledged themselves no; only 10 overthrow
Santa Anna buself but bis policy also. We cannot
regard their success therefore, as mere chance of
oynasties 10 which Ne xco is somewhat accustomed
We b. hive II will mark the opening of a new and
piopiuous era IN the history Of the country In free
commercial Intercourse asd unrestricted eInigrat on
We perceive her only chances Of reconstruction and
on that account symp9thlZs warmly with the cause
Of Alvarez and his friends. Let them 20 ahead -
