The Late News from Mexico.


The news Of tile defeat Of General ESco-
he,lo, by Meiia Is not believed here. The
last dates from the City of Mexico, received
In this city, are up to the 30th ult. Gcner-
al Mejia was thcn about starting from
Mexico City for san Luis Potosi. II is
utterly impossible that in fifteen days he
could have marched from the City of MeNi-
go Ia Monterey, a distance of nearly eight
hundred miles, and have captured that
city. The news Of has been received NJ
Matamoros.
There Is no reason TO doubt the authen,
ticity of NJ. Elvin's letter to MaNimilian,
published in Mondays papers. The orig
inal of il, with other papers of minor inn
portance, but proving ITS authenticity,
were received In this city few days ago
and shown 10 several members of the di-
plomaiic corps on the 10Th inst They were
filed in the State Department, and are now
there.

that State has taken the trouble to eX-
anime their nests, and says that in one
square tootof ground. he found four hun
dred such nests, with and average of eigh-
teen eggs TO each. He States further, that
his entire farm is crowded with the nests.
