Advice, state that France and Spain have
agreed on a programme OF. common action
against the republic of Mexico. According
10 this plan, an allied land force, numbering
six thousand men, is to ID thrown into Che
interior Of the.country itsF commanders hav-
ing orders toendeavor to PENETRATE to the.
ca pital itself, provided ample satisfaction is
not given for all the past alleged injuries
committed by the inhabitants of Mexico
against the subjects of the Emperor and
Queen. IFappears as if the English govern
ment would content itself with supporting
this movement by a strong naval demonstra-
ton in the Gulf. All the money claims of
the executive or people Of the three govern
ments must be paid by Mexico. The French
journals Intimate that the offer of a Franco
Hispano protectorate will be held out to the
people. Ex-President Miramon had arrived
in Madrid, and will, no doubt, approve fully
Of the intervention of the great powers.
The New York papers publish a letter
from one Of the refractory members Of the

fort upon it. They have already placed in
position in it ninety-two feet. When com.
pleted it will accommodate three hundred
and seventy guns Il has been given the
name of Fort Jefferson. The writer states
that be was never in better health, and has
plenty to eat--the decaoies being cocoa
nuts, lemons, &c. He likes his situation
very much, and bad rather be dragging the
guns about the fort aud wheeling sand, than
be soldering in Virginia.

this Juggernaut of fanaticism to crush out

graves branded as towards and crayens? Or
will you rise up in your might and with
strong arms and stout hearts defend and pro-
tect your homes from an invading foes

Affairs at Pensacola.

From gentlemen who have Just arrived
from Pensacola, we learn that the twenty
six hundred troops detached from Gen.
Bragg's army for the seat of war in Virginia,
got off in fine style and great spirits. They
include our two splendid battalions, the
volunteers from Louisiana, who have elected
as their field officers Capt Dreux, of the Cadets,
as Lieutenant Colonel, and Capt. Rightor, OF
the Grivot Guards, as Major, and the Zou-
aves under Lieut.. Col. Coppens. These two
battalions make up an effective force of
twelve hundred men. A Georgia and Ala
bama regiment complete the detachment.
There will be no more efficient body of
troops in the field than this force. They
have been in service nearly two months and
have now all the qualities of regular troops.
Dreux's volunteers are picked men, the elite
of our State, and the Zouaves are the only
real Zouaves in the country. The mongrel
organizations of city rowdies sent from the
North under the title of Zouaves, are bur-
lesques upon that splendid corps. Our Zou-
aves are Zouaves in reality, and can not be
distinguished from the best in the French
service. Among them are about 200 old
French soldiers. Several of the commission
ed and all of the nOn-commisSioned officers
have been officers in the french service, and
their uniform is precisely that of the French
corps, they are commanded in French, and
their drill is strictly that of the French
Light Infantry. We pity the Northern force
which comes in contact with our ZOaaves
Those who stand before them must be pre-
pared for close work. The Zouaves prefer
steel to lead.
This reduction of Bragg's command leaves
him an ample force to conduct all the opera
tlons in the reduction of Fort Pfckens. The
enemy have landed reinforcement ON San
ia Rosa of several hundred men, and large
supply OF provisions, including live cattle.
Their purpose is evidently to establish an en-
trenched camp on the Island and to stand a
long siege. We pity the poor mercenaries.
we regret that they are not New England or
New York volunteers, instead of unfortunate
foreigners, who have been compelled to en-
list In order to keep them from starvation
and want. Their destruction, either by sick
ness or by Bragg's batteries, is inevitable.
Meantime, our sagacious and energetic
General is strengthening and augmenting
his batteries and making other arrangements
which will render the result complete and
glorious one. The only fear is that Old
Brown may be able to steal off with his COM
mand in the transports which are kept con-
tinually anchored off the island. This would
be very unfortunate. We have a double
claim TO Old Brown. In addition to his
perils from Bragg's batteries and bayonets,
he owes certain responsibility to the laws
of Florida for negro-stealing, which will
probably consign him to the Penitenliary for
life.-N. o. Della, June 4.

ST. LoUIs.-We learn that the removal OF
Gen. HARNEY from the command of the Uni
ted States forces at st. Louis. has caused deep
feeling amongst the Union men in that city.
Under his authority confidence had begun to
be resumed by the people. and affairs were
generally Frightening. The substitution of
the butcher LYON for him is regarded az an
evil omen, and is reminding the slumberine
animosities which had been fired by the cap
ture Of Camp Jackson. There is to be no
peace for st. Louis and Missouri until they
turn upon their assailants and rend them.
