Mexican News.

New ORLEANS, July 22.-Galveston pa
pers contain one weeks latter news from
Mexico.
The Brownsville Ranchero doubts the
reports that an army of observation, num-
bering 10000 men, under Gen. Carline,
has been placed on the Rio Grande. The
Ranchero publishes a letter, stated to have
been written by Escobedo 10 Gen. Gomez,
directing the latter by every means in his
power to make the country entirely Mexi-
can. Escobedo says all the property in the
hands of foreigners in Mexico has been
acquired by the misfortunes of Mexicans,
and the Mexican people should now take
possession of it, and should have power
to hunt them frem the country. He says
my motto is death TO all strangers" He
adds that there is no danger of Yankees
interfering with us as long as the Southern
States are kept out af the Union. Besides,
the black men would side with US, and
would at any time pronounce against the
whites. Before we get through with the
foreigners the Yankees will think We are
in earnest. The time will comewhen their
own notables will be begging for their
heads instead of begging for the heads of
AUstrians.
Up to the 18th inst, Gers. Msrquese and
O'Harra had not been found. Some of
their adherents, it is supposed, have Sc
GREETED them in the house of the British
Minister. Strict search has been made for
them, and as soon as found they will be
shot Gen. Diaz has ordered the capture
of all foreign republicans who do not re-
cognize the Liberal government
Several more Generals who served under
Maxirnilian were shot at @ueretaro, among
others were Oteroro and CASTILLO. Four
Imperial Colonies were also shot. Seven
hundred Austrian prisoners have been sent
to Puebla. President Juarez has issued an
order for the conVocation of the Liberal
Congress to elect President Ortega is in
prison at Monterey. Santa Anna is still
alive at Campeachy. but his captors are
awaiting instructions from the Liberal
government. The feeling there is, that he
will undoubtedly be shot. Advices from
Matamoras are to the same effect. The
Prussan Consul at Vera Cruz is conducting
negotiations b obtain the release of the
Austrian prisoner, Capt. Freeman.
The revenue cutter Wilderness, which
conveyed Madame Juarez and party to
Vera Cruz, reports the Liberals extremely
independent, defiant and saucy.

chief had been found at st. Adams BY one
of Bakers detectives, and Halohan said
that it was the handkerchief he lost at St.
Adams. The Consul or his secretary said
the handkerchief was found by one oil
Bakers detectives; never heard until this
trial commenced, that the handkerchief
was found at Burlington, and given to one
of Bakers detectives. Halohan did not say
how he lost the handkerchief, and re-
marked at the time, that it was strange
thing the detectives should be following US.
