From Northern Mexico.

The Brownsville Flag, of the 10th tilt, furnishes
the following intelligence s.f& - 5ssssa.
Owing to the existence Of civil war in the State.
of Tamaulipas, we are without dates from the in
terioF of Mexico. r,gs.s.2. r. 80
In Tamaulipas, according to the progressists,
proDaneiamientos have taken place in Tampfco,
Reynesa, Camargo, and sundry other interior
towns, against the government Of Setna.
: A law Of the Legislature of Tamallipas invests
Gen. Caravajal with the command Of the State
troops and he is at present organizing force with
which he proposes to attack Mata mpras and such
of the rebels towns as refuse to come to terms.
He has a force Of five or elk hundred men under
his command at present, and is enllstng soldiers
wherever they are to be had. The prbpancianliento
at Tampieo, however, leaves Gen. Cafavajai be-
tween two fires, for il he marches against Mata-
noras, Victoria is in danger from The insurrection
Ssts in Tampco, and uice ue1sd. 5sls. 8
| We have not heard of any interference on the,
part Of Gen. Caravajal with the trade of the
try, though we have no doubt he VIII do it, for If
would be singular if he allowed thetari to be col
lected in Matamoras by his enemies. We suppose
he will soon issue an edict cIosiHg the ports Of
Tampico and Matamoras, or rather, that he will
declare that the duties paid in thbse two places
were paid to usurping rebels, and subjects the
articles to confiscation. The TogrAmme in Mexico
is not to conffseate, however, tGr that is a two
edged remedy, but both sides collect the duties,
whereby the particular article suffers all the con-
sequences of the war. Ii it can pay two tariffs,
well and good; if not then the la5t party takes it
| to pay expenses. '5 b ts1st
we learn tnaI zen. Garcia, IN command III Mdta-
| moras, favored the merchants of that place with a
complimentary invitation to meet him on the 18th,
but that owing to the importance of the occasion,
Independence Day,) the meeting was postponed
until after the national celebrations. 1t is to be
presumed that Gen. Garcia wants money, for he
seldom meets his fellow citizens on any less inn
| portant matter. The amount wanted is said to be
| somewhere between SIS, 900 and S20, coo for mme-
| date use, for which customhouse paper is to be
| issued at discount of go per cent We have no
4 doubt that the patriotic merchants will take the
| loan at that rate. s d7f o-- s-gsa4 -. 4.
| In a military point. of view. our neighbors seem
to be epulating our example, fof they are gather
ing troops inside of the city, and considerable pre-
| paration is making for defence against any attack
Gen. Carayajal may make upon the plaee.FE

JEFFERSON CRY, Sept. 2S.-Trans from St.
Louis arrived at 3 O'Clock this morning. Passen-
gers report everything quiet at Georgetown. Gen
erals Siege and Davis were at that point directing
operations.
Among the passengers by. the train were the
following officers of Colonel MarshalPs cavalry
regiment from Lexington, viz Major D. +. Jen-
kens, Capt. James Foster, Pa6i Waters, John Bur.
nap. and Lieutenants Proctor, Yost, Knight and
Blair. .
These officers were released on their parole OF
honor. They left Lexington on the morning OF
Thursday, coming in wagons overland to SedaEa
and arriving there last night.
To their knowledge, up to Thursday, Price had
not started any portion of his forces toward this
direction, though it could have been done and they
been in ignorance Of it.
Capt. Foster was informed on the morning after
the surrender, by the rebel quartermaster that he
had issued that day "a coo rations, and the captain
thinks the force has since then been increased by
accessions from the country round about to at eas
$4,000.
quarters thinks Fremont's proclamation has had
no effect of materially increasing the rebel forces
He heard nothing definite in regard to McCulloch
whereabouts. The rebels told him his force was
from 10000 to 5000
The officers think McCuloch is moving towards
Jefferson. Capt. Foster states that the Fedora
loss at the different battles was fortytye KILLED
and one hundred wounded.

We are indebted to the Southwestern Express
for late Texas dates, from which CLEAN the fol-
lowing: '5r -&g'- "- -.s.
The Austin State Gazette says that the Governor
has selected Milicans and Victoria as the reserve
camps, at each Of which places a thousand men
will be stationed and mustered into the Confeder-
ate service This force will be infantry exclusively
and will be admirably situated to repel any in
vasion of the coast. Companies are not required
to arm themselves, but each man should furnish
himself with the best arms he can procure, and
provide himself with comfortable clothing and
blankets. for which he will be compensated.
The South West says that Weaver, who killed
Burton, few weeks since in Waco, has been ar
rested and is committed for trial for murder. ,.
The seguin Confederacy says aa-.,. .a
A heavy explosion was heard in Seguin, and for
twenty or thirty miles around on Thursday week
about 10 O'clock doubtless meteoric. 1t sounded
to us more like the explosion of the powder mag
azine in Nashville, Tenn, in 1S47, than anything
we know of. Those who were out doors, say il
sounded to them as if it were overhead. Who
knows but that the big fight at Washington may
have come off on that day, and this was the notice
of it? ,...--. -..
The Goliad Messenger speaking of the Durango
humbug says: -.... ,....
| Last week four of the Durango emigrants passet
through our city on their way home. Mr.. Spindle
| formerly agent of the State Gazette, gave us
| call, from whom we obtained information regard
ing Capt Box's scheme of humbuggery. Mr
| Spindle states that the entire party who went GU
with Box are heartily sick of the expedition, ant
| those of them who have the means to get bac
| will return to their old homes. They are perfect
dsgusted with the man that deceived them-hi
! rich gold regions being yet undiscovered. 49,,
| Mr.. Angles family who went from this place
when Mr.. Spindle left, were afflicted with til
smallpox; but so soon as they should recover
| they intended to start for Goliad. Others of th
emigrants are unfortunately without the means
bring them back to their homes.
