From Mexico.

The American Minister writes to Washing ton, from Vera Cruz, encouraging accounts of the condition and prospects of the Liberal gov ernment, and expresses belief in its success, notwithstanding the efforts of the British and French ministers to throw obstacles in the way
 The American Government is to have con ceded by Mexico the right of free transit across the State of Sonora. This arrangement has been agreed to by the Liberal party. m ,. .
 The assault of the city of Mexico was daily expected when the steamer left Vera Cruz

Road to Port Lobos.

MT Zepeta, an enterprizing merchant of AL tar, Sonora, has lately opened wagon road from Altar to Port Lobos, on the Gulf, and erected a warehouse there. He is now occu- pied in connecting Altar by wagon road with the settled portion of Arizona. Should the Mexican government permit the opening Of this port and allow free transit through the country, Lobos will become the seaport of Ari- xona, being distant from Tubac and Tucson about 200 miles We have no doubt but the port would be opened and free transit guaran- tied, were proper steps taken by our govern ment The greater portion of the new road to Port Iobos is over a level country, with good pasturage
 The great advantages which this movement will confer upon this portion of Arizona are apparent Freight can be brought from Lobos for cents per pound in all, 6 cents from San Francisco; very essential difference between that rate and the l5 or IS cents now paid via the plains and Fort Yuma. Besdest the saving on freight the time saved is another important consideration, for instead of waiting months to procure goods and machinery overland from the eastern States, they could be brought from California in 30 days and sold Is or 20 per cent. lower than the present rates In ev- cry respect this enterprise so we'll commenced by our friends in Sonora deserves the hearty cooperation of our people, as it will afford them cheap provisions and cheap goods.
 This isa movement, also, which should in terest the United States Government, especial y the military Department, which is just now trying to economise in the item of transporta- ton. Troops and military stores could be thrown into Arizona at about one-half the ex- pense now liable to be incurred Our new minister to Mexico ought to be instructed to demand or negotiate the right of transit across Sonora, or what would be more polite for our government, to purchase the upper portion of the State, so as to give us port on the Gulf, without which this vast mineral region never can be properly developed.

female, with very noisy baby, which che was

fortswere vain, however. and the official, being
great lover of:children and the father of seve.

saying that he thought with his persuasive pow
ers, the child would soon be sleeping soundly.
The mother relinqIished the child To the officer,
who, with kind and soothing words kisses and
embraces was successfpl. At the next station
