NEWS FROM NORTHERN MExC0-MPORTANT MEXI-
CAN CUSTOM HOUSE DECREE.
From the New Orleans Pcayune, April 10.
The steamship General Rusk, Captain Smith, from
Brazos Santiago, arrived yesterday She left on the
18th inst, and brought slO9,74s in specie.
By this arrival we have Brownsville papers to the
It'll inst, two weeks later than we previously had.
There is very little news-none from the Mexican
side of the Rio Grandeur relation to the war of
the factions.
The prisoners in Brownsville jail, fifteen in num-
Der, made their escape few nights ago.
Great CONSERVATION was caused in Brownsville
on the night of the LIST instant, by the receipt of in
tellgence that party of nine Indians had attacked
party of herdsmen that day on Palo Alto prairie,
and killed one of them, named Gaspar Gaevecke,
citizen of Brownsville. Palo Alto prairie is some
twelve miles from that city. The Indians, after
committing the murder, took a number of horses
mounted, and crossed over into Mexico. They were
pursued, and, we are informed by the purser of the
Gen. Rusk, were overtaken and five Of them killed,
and the stolen horses all recovered. The pursuers
were Mexicans from the American side, aided by
the Mexican authorities.
The Brownsville Flag publishes the following
translation of the late decree declaring the Rio
Grande frontier of Mexico open for the free introduce
ton of goods of all kinds intended for consumption
in the frontier towns. The decree embraces all the
villages and towns on the river, high up as the
settlements extend and also includes the important
interior city of Monterey. The Flag remarks that
the document, though signed only by the present
acting Governor of Tamaupas, is understood to
have been also approved by Gen. Vidaurri, the Go
vernon of the State of Nuevo Leon and Coahula:-
