BY Cuba Cable
HAVANA, Aug. lS.-From Mexico we have the
following additional intellgence:- Governor
Hernandez Hernandez, OF Vera Cruz, had re.
turned from his expedition to MadelAn, where
he made an Intellectual attempt to capture the
usurgent leader, Prieto. The land and sea
operations undertaken against the rebels of
Alyarado and vicinity had all failed, aud
the city of Vera Cruz was full of malcon-
tents. The French, German, Spanish, and
American business men espoused the
cause of the Governor, and were aiding
him to raise men and to feed as we'll as pay his
troops punctually. The Governor had ordered
CATTLE etc.. in the suburbs to be seized tor their
use The Rebels also make raids within musket
range of the city and the local authorities do
not interfere with them. The civil authorities
of the city had been suspended.
Colonel Jiminez, with a reinforcement OF five
hundred cavalry, was expected at Vera Cruz to
scour the country arolnd. The press of the
capital torbear to mention the defeat of General
Alatorre by Negrete. The only exception is the
OrQueStd. General Ala ORE was expected at
Vera Cruz.
The Totonac Chief Colonel Juan Francisco
Lucas, had proved to be po wertul auxiliary to
Ger reral Negrete. The defeat of COL Dominguez
by the Yucatan Indians was officially reported.
Also the death of MIR. Markoe.
Kidnapping was still of frequent occurrence.
The rains were delugiDg the roads, which run
with torrents, rendering travel most difficult
and dangerous. The weather at Vera Cruz was
very stormy. Passengers by the steamers from
Cuba, who cannot produce papers to satisfy the
authorities of their neutrality in the politics Of
the republic are put in prison.

resist the shameless. ae,ion. Irclsnd is in n
ttate that ought to cause us the deepest anxiety,
the most paintdl self-reproech, and the most
eager solcitude TO redresS all grievances which
are capable OF redress, Ireland is at this mo.
ment the weakness and the danger Of the
British empire, aod the very first object with
every Dnglishnan not wholly devoid OF
political prudence will be to remove every re.
movable source of Irish discomfort and disaffec-
tiGn. We have confidence in the sense OF justice
and fairness which animates the masses OF our
countrymen; we have confidence in their politi-
cal common sense, and therefore we believe
shat they will pronounce an equitable and
rational verdict on the great question which will
shortly be decided by their sutfrages. English
men can understand the duty of doing to others
as they would that Others should do to them;
they can also understand that divided empire
is weak and united empire strong, and to un-
derstand these two things is to understand the
countrymen, and in tho language of last Fridays
royal speech, we look with entire confidence
to their proving themselves worthy of the high
privilege with which they have been invested"
