LATER FROM MEEICO


BY the arrival yesterday of the steamship Ten
nessee, we have received papers from Vera Cruz
OF the 9th instant, and from the city of Mexico
OF the 18th ult. From the Extraordinary. publish
ed in the last named city, we gather the following
intelligence:
The month past has unfortunately produced no
favorable signs for the alienation of the disorders
OF this country: The record is marked with more
rankerous exhibitions of civil dscord Tn nlacn of
having to notice mere predatory excursionizinr an
the part of the different bands as formerly we have
been called upon to record some serious fobtinr
and the execution of prisoners falling capiye in hat
tie. This has brought things to a disapreeobIe mass
in the interior, and we are now bourjv nynnct;nr
accounts of amost severe engagement between tho
contending forces, who are supposed to he colIact
ing in great strength, and near the city of San Ims
Potosi, the capital of the department of the same
name.
The government has its most valiant General at
the head of its forces and he (Gen Osollol is sun
ported by Miramon, who in point of personal bra
very, is supposed to be but little his inferior On
the side OF the opposition is Gen. Suazua who is
reported to be an able and daring officer The latter
he has already proved himself BY his exploits He is
sustained by an able force from the frontier infe
rior, in military SKILL to none that Mexico affords
From all accounts the forces will be nearly equal in
numbers. 1t there be any advantage in this re-
! spect, the government will likely be able to have
| the largest force in the field. At last advi-
ces the main force of each party was hurrvino on
towards San Luis and they have, in all probability
ere this date, come up with each other
On the line of Vera Cruz, nothing has been done
by the government. and the opposition still perse-
we're in their hostility to the interests of the ooyern
ment in this capital, and to the interests of COM
merce in the interior. No goods allowed to de-
part from Vera Cruz and, from what we consider
good authority, after careful inquiry, learn that
the value of the goods stored in that place amounts
to at least S7,O0o,OOO. Besides the goods in store
In Vera Cruz, there are large quantities along the
| road, which have been stopped by order of this
government, although fully within their lines Pub
lie security is at such low ebb that, should the
government consent to let pass the Struggling car
goes, 1t would be next to impossible to transfer
| them to their respective destinations in safety.
The siege OF Perote does not progress. The cas-
tie has provisions for 200 men for seven months
Trego, the commandant, intimated to Gen. Echea-
garay that if he occupied the town of Perote he
would shell him out of it. The General did take up
offensive position in the place, and the fire from
the castle obliged him to retire. The besieped then
sailed out and sacked the town of Perote-N. 0.

MEETING OF THE ANGLO MEXICAN BOND
HOLDERS


PROTECToRATE
AT public meeting of the Mexican English bond
holders, held in London on the 2Sth of Nav 1855 to
consider the state of their affairs, Senator Hous
toms proposition to establish an American Protec
torate Mexico unanimously endorsed by
the following resolution:
ResolUed, That this meeting, without presuminc
to give opinion on the future destnes of Mexico,
on the policy, so far Mexico herself is con-
cerned, of her either remaining an independent
State under her own government, or placing her
self under protectorate of the United States of
America, desires to express its unanimous approval
of the principles of Gen. Houston's proposal as ey
planned in his printed speech. so far as the Mexican
bondholders are concerned; but with this just and
very necessary addition to the honorable Sen
ator's statement, that, by the express terms of
the bond, as well as by the law of October a. 1850
article 2, paragraph 8, not only the hypothecated
duties, but the entire of the republic are
absolutely pledged and mortgaged for the English
public debt of Mexico any deficiency of the produce
of the duties specially hypothecated to provide for
the current dividend and for all arrears of interest
must be made good out of the general revenue of
the republic, whether Mexico continues an hide
pendent State or seeks repose under the protector
ate OF the United States Of America.

WHO MAY CARRY LETTERS

LETTER FROM ATToRNEY-GENERAL BLACK.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS OFFICE, J
June 3. 1858
SIR I: our communication the subject of the
ietter carriers OF Brooklyn was at first laid aside
Tor more pressing engagements: but your note of
tins morning recalls my attention to it as oues-
ton still pending before your Department
The business of carrying letters and other mail
matters belongs exclusively to the Government IT.
ought to be, and must be so, for very obvious rea
sons, which need not to be repeated In every LARGE
town etercarriers to and from the offices are mart
OF the system as much as the transportation of the
mails from one office to another. These carriers are
appointed by the Postmaster General: they arc ra
CURED to give bond; they may collect certain fix
ed and uniform sum upon each letter, and nav IL
over to the Postmaster; they act under the superv
sion OF the Department., NAV be removed if tbay
prove unaithfu and are subject to special penalties
for violation of duty. To all intents and
they public officers O0N'
But it seems that portion of the citizens of
brooklyn, unwilling to be served by the legal car
rier and desirious to appoint one of their own
choice, have associated themselves together and
given standing order to the postmaster that he
shall deliver all their letters and papers to certain
person by them desgnated-that person being one
who was heretofore legal carrier but DISCHARGED
from the SERVICE The postmaster refuses 70 de-
liver mail matter agreeably to the order, and the
question am about to advise YOU upon is whether
you are bound to acquiesce in the arrangement of
those gentlemen to substitute their own AGENT for
:, w
the law, and to pervert it from the purpose it was
made for.
But they insist that no citizen is bound bv the
law to receive his letters from the public carriers
1t Is true, any man may direct the postmaster to
retain his mail matter, and he may call for it him
self or have it brought away by one whom he au-
thorses to get it. X *
MY oplmon in short is that any attempt to have
letters carried to or from the Post-Olice by a nr
,vate carrier, in a town where public carrier has
been appointed by you, is altogether unlawful, and
enough to execute it.
person who intends to make the CARVING Of
letters his regular business, or part of his bust

receiving authority to take letters out of the

have-whether it be joint order from all his en-
ployers, or separate order of each one of them-a

NEW LIFE PRESERVER

4 IA
Tn Friday last party of gentlemen went down
the pay, by invitation, to witness some expert
ments and practical exhibition of Bunker's patent
ll1e-preservers Among those on board were MANY
peculiarly calculated to form correct Indictment
OF the merits of such inventions: old sea cantoins
men whose interests are concerned in the safety of
life on the ocean, ship owners underwriters and
others OF similar experience and character The
test resulted In a complete triumph for Cantain
Bunker, the inventor His life -preservers were sub
Jected to rigid examination both in and out of the
water, and were universally pronounced the best
adapted Tor their purpose of any such articles
known.
They are apparently made of India rubber cloth
but have this advantage over any others in use
that they can be repeatedly punctured without re-
celyng INJURY They are also much stronger
the foot thrown violently against sharp projections
and yet remain sound After being inflated, they
were stood upon, and otherwise tested but ar
parentlv received no damage They are made very
much IKE woman's corsets, can be readily slippcd
on, ana form complete protection to the chest
ana back, leaving the free for the purpose of
swimming.
Men clad in them leaped from the steamer in tho
toughest part OF the bay, and without using arms
or legs were supported either on their backs or
Stomachs or In perpendicular position with their
hands out of water. Three men wearing them went
twice through the surf at Sandy Hook, without the
least dliiculty or exhaustion. In addition to this
two OF these life-preservers with iron WEIGHTS of
nearly hundred pounds attached, were let into the
water as the excursion went down the hay and
picked up on the return, some three or four hours
aterward, having, of course foated during all that
while. In ten minutes time raft was constructed
OF planks, some dozen of these life-prescrvers at
tached, and then thrown into the water: three men
men got upon it, turned it completely over several
times, and otherwise demonstrated the feasibility
and immense usefulness in emergency of the con
struction of such raft
meeting was organized after the close of the OK
Periments, at which Henry Grinncll, presided, and
John Laidlaw, was Secretary; Joseph Hoxie made
speech, and resolutions We're drafted by COM
mittee composed of six captains; these resoIu-
TONS expressing in unqualified language the appro-
baton of all present of the invention submitted to
