LATER FROM MEXICO.

BY the arrival of the steamship Tennessee, Cap
tain Forbes, from Vera Cruz, we have dates from
that port tosthe goth inst We have no later direct
from the city of Mexico, or from San Luis Po-
tos where, it will be remembered, the frOntiermen
under Gen. Vidaurri were opposed to Osollos and
Miramon the commanders of the Iuloaga Govern
ment. The accounts published below favor the
JuareZ Government. Whether they are reliable or
not, remains to be seen. We extract the following
intelligence from our files of the Progreso the Of
fetal organ of President Juarez:
On Saturday last, 10Th inst, at $50 A. NJ,
shock of an earthquake was felt at Vera Cruz
Inc shock lasted about fifteen seconds.
The Monterey Boletin Official, mentions the ar
rival OF four pieces of artilerey at that place. sent
from the State of Chihuahua. Sr. Coronado, the
commander of the chihuahua troops, was reported
to be marching from Durango to re-estabsh the
Constitutional (Juarez) Government there. His
forces consist of 500 men and battery.
The ProgrcsO has notice of an engagement be-
tween the ZuOaga forces under Negrete and the
Constitutional troops under J. NJ Bello, near Son
quimistla, in the State of Puebla, the 10th of
June. Col Negrete was obliged to retreat not
however, until he had committed great depredations
in the neighborhood.
The first rifle regiment of the Zuloaga Govern
ment stationed at Jalapa, pronounced the til
inst, in favor of the Constitutional party.
Gen. Echeagaray encountered them at Cerro Cor
do, and put them to fight. Gen. Manero was killed
in the engagement.
Gen. Alvarez, who overthrow the last govern
ment of Santa Anna, and resigned the Presidency
of the Republic in favor of Comonfort has written
letter to President Juarez, congratulating him on
his safe arrival at Vera Cruz, and pledging a cor
dial support to his Government. Alvarez, with
his piRtos, was at Providencia, hacienda in the
northern part of the State of Guerrero en- route for
! the city of Mexico.
Col. Cobos, leader of the Zuloaga party, has
| issued, from his headquarters at Cordoba in the
| State OF Vera Cruz, an order enjoning all to lay
| down their arms, and submit to the Zuoaga Gov
! eminent.
Gen. Santos Degallado, of the Juarez party, has
| captured the city of Guadelajara. An engagement
between the army under Vidaurri and the troops
of Osollos and Miramon is also reported to have
taken place. These reports came to Vera Cruz Uia
the city of Mexico. The recall of Santa Anna was
spoken of as probable event; also the prociama-
ton OF new constitution, with Osollos as Provls-
| ional President.
The seaport of Mazatlan, the only one on the Pa
citc side hitherto in the hands of ZulOaga, is also
said to have pronounced in favor of Juarez.
The Liberal party in the city of Mexico were be-
ginning to give signs of life. Copies of little
sheet, called ala Aarno,' were secretly circulated
in the city the I'd inst, wherein the Government
of Iuloaga is denounced in bitter terms, and the
Liberals from other parts of the Republic invited to
march against the capital, and put an end to the
tyrannical government there extant.
Sir jose NJ. Diaz-Ortas has been elected Govern
or of the State of Oajaca. He is an adherent OF
the Juarez Conveniently. o. Delta, Jme &C.
From Correspondence Of the Mobile Registerl
CITY OF MEXICO, June 10, 1858.
quence of the armed enforcement several foreign
houses, among which are some American ones, OF
the ''war contribution" recently decreed by the
! Government, in defiance of solemn treaty stipua-
tions, and against which Mr. Forsyth has protested,
as you have doubtless heard in the most energetic
terms. Foreigners who refuse to pay this Ubiquitous
tax are charged with contumacy by the Govern
ment, and threatened with Punishment. Indeed,
an American merchant has already been furnished
with passport, ordering him to leave the Republic
o. within three days.
As this refusal to pay is in strict accordance with
the advice publicly given by the American Minister
to his countrvmen, this last arbitrary measure is
clearly and Extensively directed at him. and has
prompted very curt note to the Minister of Foreign
Affairs A suspension of all official intercourse
with the Mexican government will probably be the
grave consequences, though the government fully
expected that Mr.. +. would Indignantly demand his
passports, which is exactly what they wanted, be-
ing DESTROYS of getting rid of the ablest and most
| uncOmprOmsing diplomatic officer by whom it has
ever been forced to do unwilling Justice at any price
| whatever. Such an irresponsible government fears
not even the wrath of Uncle Sam, knowing that it's
own existence will hardly last month
! Never was American influence the prestige of
the American great here as now. The
course of Mr.. f. has won the admiration of his
countrymen and all the foreigners throughout the
Republic. The French Minister Marquis de Gabri-
ac, who sided with the government, is universally
mathematical by the French and others under his
diplomatic protection, while Englishmen say that
| Mr.. Otway might have followed with more graceful
| aacfitN III lne footsteps OF MS cONeague OF the
United States. Meantime bands of soldiers are Wis
iting the counting of merchants and embar-
| going their goods. At San Luis Potosi respectable
! Englishmen have been compelled to march in the
ranks of common soldiers for refusing to pay new
contribution"
The baleul fires of civil war continues to burn all
over the country, and thinking men gravely ask
each other where the colossal saturnaa is to end.
In view of the unprecedented condition of the
country at large, and of the government here,
which Is moneyless and must sell territory to the
| United States, fall soon, cannot help thinking
that Mexican nationality is approaching its end
and that there is strong probability that the mis-
sion of Mr.. Forsyth will be the last mission from the
| United States here. The most intelligent Mexican:
and the of the foreigners, except perhaps, the
Spaniards, are warmly in favor of the extension
hither of the power of that country. The English
eagerly desire it the only method of securing
their enormous claims long unpaid. The throe:
| are quick and violent, and am anxious to be in a
the death of the sick man. The witnesses of the
national demise would afford much curious anC
valuable instruction and offer such opportunities Of
observation and experience rarely enjoyed by
the most fortunate in this life.
