WHAT THK MKNICANs ARR DOING.
The MeNicans were daily expecting the allied
ileet at Vera Cruz and 1ampico. The general
feeling throughout NJ, Nico seemed to he spirit
# incXtnguishable hatred and de iiance to Spain.
All the usual factions and fcuds among the Mexi-
cans appeared TO be giving way TO the sentiment
| 81 united resistance To their common enemy.
| And their frequent remark wa, that if the
SpaniaIds came alone, they would be heartily
| welcomed
No resistance, however, would he made at
these ports ON the contrary, San Juan d Ulloa
was being dismintled, aud her guns taken in =
land. lfsny Mexican symptoms can he trusted
IN such matters, a most determined and proba-
] bly, successful opposition will bo made to any
| Spanish invasion OF their country. The Spanish
| beet and amy were met by the Clyde within
| thirty six hours sail Of Vera Cruz-havng
ahead Of them remarkably fine wind aud sea
for their sail and distmbai kation.
The first division of the Spanish fleet sailed
for Mexico November 30th, IRON Havana, and
the balance left December lst as the Columbia
was entering that harbor.
THE 81 oCKADE DEEMED INEFFICIFST.
A correspondent of the ENrRBss, writing from
Havana, Dec. 9Th, says
There must be some mistake in the statements
Of the New York and other northern papers,
about the efficiency Of the blockade. Three days
ago, the Confederate steamship Vanderbilt, Cap.
tain Smith, came into port with valuable car
go of cotto,, which viii find good market at
barcelona, whittier 1t will at once be shipped.
IkIco other steamers are understood to be en-
youts, --one from New Orleans, and another
from Charleston.
The Confederate steamer W. Mallory came in
| Yesterday iiom Mobile, with a cargo of Naval
| Stores. The captain would have brought coI-
| ton, tut the Confederate authorities at Mobile
| would not permit it to be- shipped.
| Vessels are clearing every day for ports in
| the G. :. A., and We do not learn that many
captures are made. Most Of these vessels carry
| coffee, for which they got sl5la to 5lG%.
| There is scare, ~ any bushes, here i,r North
| cn ships. Outward trcights are not payirg.
