The steamship tennessee Capt. FOroes, arrived al
the Levee at l0} o'clock last night from Vera Cruz,
which place she left her regular day, the 2ls to
which date We have files OF papers by her.
The new Government appears to be at best much IN
the postion of all former Ones for the present main
tanning itsei and OF course having supporters,
but bitterly assailed by opponents.
On the 18th inst decree of great Importance TO
commerce issued. The first article provides that
AL duties PAYABLE by vessels arriving al Vera Cruz
and Tampico shall be paid at the capital itself long
rs those ports refuse to obey the Government of Zu
Ioags the second article provides that the disposition
Of the duties shall be that appointed under existing
lava; the third provides that all duties paid at the
ports themselves shall be regarded not satisfied;
the fourth, that the decree shall not affect vessels
arriving at Vera Cruz within three days after its pub
hcaton those arriving Tampico within thirteen
days thereafter; the fifth, that the civil and military
authorities Of the ports shall be severaly aud col
lecvely held responsible for opposition to tue decree
in accordance with the law of the I'D OF Feb. 1882
The Vera Cruz Progreso, of the Dist inst, in
ferring to this decree, indignantly epudates the acu
ties which, says, factlous Government is thus ar
rogatng TO ITSELF debating laws 10 Territories which
support the legitimate Government Of the nation, and
which, far from cepting the usurpatOn which trait
orous part Of the army affects disposed to combat
il; and it remarks that one condition in all information
al treaties isthat important alteration in reference
TO foreign commerce shall be made without allowing
ample time for notice Of it to reach those places
which have transactions with the ports affected. But
waIvng these for the moment IL asks whether the for
eign Ministers at Mexico have recognized the rebel
Government of Zuoaga 10 have TO tolerate this preu
dicsl movement against the commerce of their respec

70 have protested against this attack and if this is
not the Consus at the respective ports ought it
thinks, at once 10 address their several Ministers

country.
II they have been seduced to acquiesce in it by
oaeis OF the rebel Government that the proceeds
Of the duties shall be reserved for the purpose of
fulnllng the obligations of existing conventions,

only Of traitors and rebels but of the robber faction
with whom they make common cause. The Propreso
says much more to similar effect and throughout the
whole Of the issue to which referring, speaks
in similarly defiant, severe and bitter strain Of the
Zuloaga Government.
xNor the ProRreso alone in the expression of such
feelings ss these. II quotes several articles If any
thing stronger in tone than its own, from FL Jaico
Ps3lico, OF Guansjusto from the BoIetfE Orsare"o,
from La MiscciaRSo and frsm the Mentor. The first.
named Of these loudly proclaims the impossiblity OF
Zuloagss Government lasting and closes its long ar.
