OLD aw1N IN mEx16o:

In all matters connected with American
politics, the Government of the United
States, or any matter or thing connected
with the detested flag called the "Stars
and Stripes" Beriah Brown is unreliable.
In fact, we might even 60 so far as to pro-
nounce him liar, devoid of shame or
conscience. When, however, it comes to
rebeldom and rebels, treason and traitors,
domestic plotters, or foreign foes, Beriah
is "thar" He may possibly lie; but he
can't be mistaken-it amt in the pins.
Beriah is Governor General of the knights
of the Columbian Star-and whatever of
deviltry is brewing against the Govern
ment of the United States, at home or
abroad, is duly certified to by Beriah under
the sign-manual of JEFF. and the seal of
the Order. In Beriah's Press of Tuesday,
we find the following information concern
ing the movements of the Old Duke de
Lime Point on our southern frontier:
1--WE have refrained from indulging in
speculation or expressing any opinion in
regard to the many reports and rumors re-
lating to the position and designs of DR..
Gwin in Mexico, until we could give the
exact facts undisputably avouched. This
we are now prepared to do by information
received from Barclay Henley, Esq, the
accredited agent of DR.. Gwin, under the
protection of the Emperor of Mexico, Max
imillian, has conveyed by trust deed to
Louis Napoleon, Sonora, Sinaloa and
other northern States, the boundaries of
which are not vet determined, to be held
and governed by the latter, under Mexican
protection, as security for the payment Of
claims of France against Mexico, to be re-
stored to Mexico in full upon the payment
of said claims. with all private rights Sc
cured under French occupation confirmed.
DR.. Gwin is the Governor General or
Viceroy of the Emperor of the French, in
vested with plenary powers for the gov
eminent of these States, and to dispose of
the public lands and mines. He has drawn
up code of laws which have been ap-
proved by the Emperor, of the most
liberal kind, guaranteeing civil and re-
ligious liberty, providing for pre-
emption and purchase of public lands,
and regulating the terms of occupa-
ton and use of the mines. The Emperor
of the French guarantees a military force,
under the direction of the Governor-Gen-
eral, sufficient to maintain the public
peace and defend the people of the States
against internal and external foes. The
policy of DR.. Gwin, which has the appro-
val of both EmperorS, is to encourage
emigration from the American States by
offering the most liberal terms to settlers,
in order to bring intelligent industry,
energy and enterprise to the development
of the well. known resources of that region
so highly favored by natural advantages
of soil, climate and mineral wealth, and
to form an enlightened and substantial
population which will assure permanency
and security to the Government and de-
fend it against filibustering expeditions
which the unappropriated riches and
semi barbarous condition of the people
have heretofore invited. Mr.. Henley is
associated with Maj. J. C. Ridge, as
agents of DR.. Gwin, and they are here for
the purpose of inviting emigration to that
section. They may be consulted at the
Russ House, in this city"
