Important from the Rio Grands.

M NEW oaLEASs, Saturday Nov, 10.
The lndianola Courier of the 18th
inst. says that an express from the
Sheriff Of Nueces County had arrived,
reporting that Cortinas, with 1900
men and nine canhons, has full poE
session OF the Rio Grande.
From Brownsville, Roma and his
forces are securing all the surrounding
country. All the mail.commun;ca.

BE- cut of. Corpus Christi is, howev-

Captain Tobin, with one hundred
men from Corpus Christi, has been
defeated, and it is feared that his re-
treat is cut of. The reports are con.
flicting, and probably very much ex.
aggerated. The latest reliable &C.
counts are by New Orleans merchants
who left Brownsville on the 4th inst,
when affairs were unchanged.
General Twiggs telegraphed tho
Government yesterday, in relation to
the matter.

England and France in Collision
War Preparations.

The London correspondent of the
New York Times writes as follows:
"Tho attitude Of France, in spite Of
all the professions Of desire for peace,
continues to OCCASION considerable un.
easiness. Every body who has mixed
during the last three months in French
society, civil or military, has derived
the same impression as to the coming
policy ofthe Imperial Government
Enormous naval preparations Of all
kinds are making everywhere, and
thoughtful Frenchmen, who venture
to speak candidly to their English
friends Or connections, avow that they
look with dally.increasing wonder at
the sort OF indifference and triaing
wit measures OF defense noticeable
here. One and all tell the same tale
Of the popular desire in France for a
great struggle with England; and all
express their belief that, having once
tasted the Intoxicating cup of military
fame, their egotistical master will nev.
er totegO the dream Of avenging his
uncle'S fall until he has fairly measur.
ed swords with us. Ii such, indeed,
be not his secret thought, it is incon-
ceivabie what object he can propose to
himself by the vast armaments at sea
he goes on preparing. One fact on
this head came within my observation
