By the arrival of the steamship St. Mary ycster-
day, and through the courtesy Of our friends we +
are in possession of the Matamoros Ranchero Of
the 18th, 10th and 21st. We copy the following
from that paper. It must be borne in mind, m
weighing the credibility of the news, that the
Ranchero is strongly in the interest of the lmpe-
rial government, and hostile to the government Of
| the United States S5.s
From thatpa of the 18th ne take the follow

From persons who left Bagdad yesterday morn
ing, we learn that there not twenty five fill
| busters and outlaws in the pilaged city. The
place was exclusively under Federal rule. About
three hundred negroes are kept there constantly

things out but became disgusted, and is reported
having returned to Brownsville with one or two |

Y the boarding house Of Mrs Jaques. The object OF
his visit to San Antonio is not definitely known
but it is more than surmised that he is seeking I

ry attaches would have been arrested had he not go
Of off on the Crescent for New Orleans. It is ever
affirmed that he paid big price to get the yesse

an any, truth in the statement
