ARRIVAL OF THE STEAMER W. H. WEBB.

The Louisiana Tehuantepec Company's steamer
W. a. Webb, Joseph Leach, commanding, from Nina
titan, with her usual compliment of passengers and
mails crossed the bar at IL o'clock A. NJ, fifty eight
hours from bar to bar.
The Pacific mail steamship Golden Gate left San |
Francisco on the 9Th ult. with 700 passengers and
81 100000 in treasure for New York.
We have advices from the City of Mexico to the |
25th of June, and from Vera Cruz to the 9Th July.
Gen. Marquee had robbed the conducta of specie |
train of 100000 whilst on its way from GUIANA
juato to San Bias, and taken it to Guadalajara,
where it said he intended pronouncing for Santa
Anna, and intends to avail himself of this money to
do so. 1t is said that Topic and San Bias oecu-
pied by the Liberals Miramon was making extraor-
binary exertions to extort money from the clergy,
threatening to nationalize the Church property.
Gen. Banco has arrived from the northern frontier
with 1900 ronterizos and considerable train Of ar
tillery. Notwithstanding the large sum Of money
seized upon by Gen. Marquee, he has not been able
to arm more than 1000 men at Guadalajara, on &C.
count of the scarcity of the munitions of war.
The Government of Miramon is thoroughly dis.
gusted at the conduct of General Robles in allowing
the conducta Of the Vera Cruz specie train to pro-
ceed as he had in his possession official documents
from the English and French Ministers guaranteeing
protection to him. should he succeed in landing it at
SACRIFICES, or return to Jalapa; which documents
have subsequently fallen into the hands of the Liber
ais, who, we have no doubt, will use them to advan-
tage at the proper time.
Assassinations BY the Reactonists of the Liberals
still continue with unmitigated fury. Gen. Zuazua
is nominated Commander-in.Chief Of the troops of
| Zacatecas San, Luis, Tamaulipas and Nueva Leon.
| conspiracy had been discovered in the city of
Mexico, which had for its ostensibe object the put
ting in power of Marquee, but which was really a
| movement by the friends of Santa Anna, as Gen.
Marquee has subsequently rebeled against the Gov
ernment of Miramon, and pronounced in favor of
Santa Anna.
The 4th of July was duly observed at Vera Cruz.
The American ensign was hoisted by all the vessels
in the harbor as well from the public buildings
and forts at Vera Cruz-the latter firing national
salute at sunrise and at sunset
The foreign war vessels lying at SACRIFICES also
hoisted the American ensign, and acknowledged the
day we celebrate " by salute in response to the
iubilant echo of our guns from vessels stationed
near by.
"This demonstration, y says the Progreso, should
fill the heart of every American with pride on seeing
Old Europe paying respect to Young America"

From California.
We find nothing of much Importance in the imper
feet files of papers which reached US last night b.
the VIM. H. Webb. The near approach of the Fourtl
had given powerfully patriotic tone to their edto
rial columns, while the principal news was, usual
reports of stabbings, cuttings and shootngs, and &C
cidents in the cities and the mining districts, witt
humorous incidental items of the pecadlloes OF job
Chinaman.
Donahue's Union Foundry in San Francisco wa
busy casting cannon to the order of the Liberal part
in Mexico, having turned out several 24pound howl
zers, the first cannon ever cast in California.
A sudden rise had occurred in the South Yub
river, which carried away dam and drowned thre
men.
A vein of ore of extraordinary richness had bee
discovered in Washoe Valley, an assay showing tha
it was worth $1,000 in gold to the tun besides smalle
, values of silver and copper.
Q Reports from the California mines, were general
favorable, but not accounts from Frazer's rive
the adyces being to the effect that dust was
and that the English authorities were carrying thing
very arbitrarily, making the residence of foregne
}. exceedingly uncomfortable.
