ously swindled corporation of New Orleans
was acquitted of the charge for which he
was arraigned BY jury on Friday. The

trial. The District Attorney made out the
amount Of Garland's embellishments at
$2o6, 900. Huntington could not get off in

From the Picayune Of yesterday.
Late and IApeFtant from Tampico,

1 IRON the fic4yune Oh yesterday.
| Late and IApertant from Tamptco,
The Mexican schooner Anita, Capt
Basso. arrived at this port, from Tampico
Yesterday afternoon, bringing dates to the
10th inst. !
Through the politeness Of a commercial
house OF this city, we received a fl'e o.
| Tampico papers to the 14th OF January
and also letter written TO that firm ny a
resident Of Tampico, dated January 10th.
The intelligence is in the highest degree
interesting.
The threatened invasion Of CARA, Gov.
ernor of Tampico, under Santa Anna, was
hourly looked for. r.
We CLEAN the following details from the
letter alluded to above !:
1.-The state of affairs in this district is
daily becoming more alarming, as to the
security Of life and property. Under date
of the 5h inst, our Consul, Franklin
Chase, ESQ.,, received letter from Eulo-
gio Gantico Valdomar, the present Gov
ernor, in which that functionary alluded to
the acts of the former Governor, whom he
stated to be on the road from the city of
Vittoria, with an armed force, for the occu-
patton Of this garrison, and that be had
offered the deluded troops who followed
him six hours pillage if they achieve a
triumph over Tampico.
"A portion Of Garza's troops are now
within seven or eight miles from this gar
rison, and we are without the protection of
a vessel of war. understand that the
revenue cutter Of your port has been asked
for by our Consul, and trust that your
worthy Collector will have it in his power
to furnish US with that aid. \
"On the 9th inst, battle was fought
by the troops of this garrison against an
armed force encamped in the Pueblo Viejo
(old town. which continued about seven.
teen hours, in which many lives were lost,
and almost every house pillagcd!
"The war now waged between the
parties seems to be war of
dissolution, and the property Of foreigners
appears to be the first object to stimulate
them TO action. 70 III .,.=:.-.l'e ,fElT9N I
"On the LIST inst, Col. Herran, act
ing under orders Of the revolutionary chiefs
Of San Luis Potosi, entered the house OF
Geo. P. Chabot, Esq, H. B. M. Consular
Agent, and, by force Of arms, he seized
and carried away two hundred and forty
thousand dollars, belonging to the mer-
chants OF this city, which had been de-
posted there for safe keeping.
"Such are our present prospects, and if
we are not speedily aided with the protec-
ion Of an armed force from the United
States, we may look forward to still
more gloomy one.' 4
The Tampico Bolctin, Of the 14th, gives
he loss Of the Government troops in the
engagement Of the 9th, already alluded to
lboye, as eight killed and thirty. one
Col. Pedro Hirojosa command
d the Government forces. The insur-
cents, which were commanded by Capt.
Horena, had to abandon the field, leaving,
resides their killed and wounded, sixty
prisoners, two small field pieces, two hun
lred muskets and other property in the
,ands Of the Government troops. This is
he Government account Of the action, and
Gems to be little exaggerated.

NICARAGUA NEws.-A Geographic dis
patch dated New York Jan. 2sth says the
British steamship Thames, which had ar
rived at Aspinwall, from Greytown, repor-
ted that Gen. Walker was at Rivas sur
rounded by the enemy. and that bis case
was desperate. ssl - SSH
On which the Picayune comments as
follows: ~. ~. t,.....s..... Yatry
The steamship James Adger, which
left San Juan on the 18th and arrived at
New York on the 24th, reported that
Walker was; at Rivas with 1900 men
well supplied. The Thames could not
take much, il any later news to Aspinwall
and for obvious reasons, we incline to
doubt the Aspinwall story and rely on the
James Adge.'s reports. At any rate, we
do not believe that Walkers case is as
desperate As reported at Aspinwall.
