Some days ago General Canales met and completely
defeated Juan Nepomuceno Cortna II is said that Cor
sina W6B captured ana afterwards summary executed
The guerlas here, everywhere else empire,
quite numerous. They nfest the road between this
place and Monterrey and the bosweon Monterey and
San Luis Potosl
Mea and his force OF three thousand Eve hundred
mon stll remains among US. His followers, although
supporters Of the clergy are however, nveterate one
mics TO the empire and the French army. There is
hero that he win 90 to Monterey, In which
lie will leave Governor OF Matam0ros md IN his
place General Casanova.
One OF the most curious documents OF this war Is the
act OF adhesion OF this city TO the empire, which was
published here time ago. Matamoros contains
than four thousand inhabanIs-the act contains
only hundred aud eighty six signatures; and OF
these, sixty from persons employed in the
police department and forty from the Custom
House and other government employees, leav
Ing balance of only cghty.siy signatures from
citizens OF this place. Still these sgners per-
sons OF very little II any social standing here. Any
comments on this result would be unnecessary.
Tho rebels and mperalists TO be ON the best OF
terms with each other. Mejia was invited the other
day great banquet at Brownsville where he feasted
aud toasted with the rebels and joined them In their da
tribes against the Yankees.
Tho general belief here is that the empire will be OF
short duration, Maxman is screly in want OF funds,
he has not established credit he will be unable to raise
loan.
IL said that Juarez Jalsco General Arteaga
has considerable force there.
The capture OF Mazatan by tho iorces under Corona
has been confirmed.
Commerce is greatly excited at present as there is
probability that Mea before his march into the interior,
intends to force loan the principal commercial
houses Tho amount OF the loan will DO moi less Than
$500 900.
