Sedgwick'S Folly.

the effect that Brevet Brigadier-General
SEDGwIcK, commanding q. S. troops at
Brownsville, Texas, and crossed the Rio
Grande on the 22d ult., and taken possession
OF Matamoros, was disproved by later advi-
ces But it seems only to have been pre-
mOnitition of what was to take place. 1t
NOW appears that on the 26th General SEDG-
WICK did execute the feat for which he had
credit in advance. He then crossed the IA
nous river upon pontoon bridge, and his
subordinate, Colonel PERKINS, of the colored
troops, was put in command of the heroic
city. Thereby 1t seems that General SEDG-
WICK has gotten himself into Il nice mess.
The effect Of his movement was to strengthen
the position of Canales. who held the city
adversely to the JUAREZ Government, and
apparently upon his own account Es-
CoBEDo, who commanded the liberal troops.
was compelled to storm the fortifcations.
and he was repulsed, with an estimated loss
of seven hundred and fifty men, killed, woun
ded and prisoners. The result of General
SEDGwICKs intervention, theI etOre, has been
to ostrengthen the cause of an officer who was
opposing the regular Government of Mexico
and to cost the Liberals, who can lilly afford
it, large expenditure of blool. There may
be circumstances conn ected with the affair
which will relieve SEDGwIcK of the serious
responsibility which he has assumed, but ac-
cording to appearances he has gone very far
beyond his duty and instructions, and he
has placed the country in false and unnat-
ural position.

Important from Mexico.

CINcINNATI. December "a special des-
patch to the Commercial, from Brownsville,
Texas, dated November 30, says:
General Sedgwick, on the oath, made
formal demand on Colonel Canales for the
Immediate surrender of Matamoros WHICH
was acceded to, and Canales occupied the
Qualifications, while the American flag floats
over the city. A sufficient number of troops
occupy the city to render the occupation Sc
cure.
'Escobedo attacked Canales on the 27th,
and desperate battle ensued, lasting three
hours, resulting in the defeat of Escobedo,
with loss of six hundred men, including
General Espinosa. Colonel Canales lost sew
enty-five men.
" "Escohedo lays his defeat to the interfer-
ence of United States troops.
Another despatch says EscObedo attack
ed Canaies in Matamoros on Tuesday morning
at halt past five o'clock, but fell back after
two hours desperate struggle. One occasion
of his defeat was the occupation of Matamo
ros, three days before, bya body of American
troops. who relieved Canales of the city and
left him to use his force in defending the
fortiications.
"Escobetlo Indignantly complains Of the
action of General Sedgwick. He expects
reinforcements, when he will resume the at
tack. Meanwhile, the American flag floats
within the besieged defences."
