There were also four barrels Of ale Of
which We have not learned the selling
prices. The cost was just $50. If this
was sold at proft,the above unexplain-
ed item would be increased slightly. Some
OF the other prices are not accurate, but
we have endcavored to bring the average
surely below the price really obtained.
While we do not assert that there is
anything wrong in the account, or in the
management Of the agency, we cannot see
why there is not an apparent discrepancy
which the auditors ought to have inquired
into and explained.

Mexican News.

Our dispatches from the Rio Grande an
nounce the receipt of dispatch from Topic,
dated the seventeenth instant, which con-
veys intelligence of the suppression of the
revolution in Jalisco and the capture OF the
Indian chief Losada. The capture OF this
outlaw has been announced several times
already, but this time we take the informa-
ton to be official. For years this unedu-
Gated ruler has governed his province with
an iron hand. The title Of liking of Tepic'
he won and bore. In all the revolutions
and rebellions in which Mexico has been
involved he has maintained an armed
neutrality. and TO government be-
fore the present has succeeded in
dislodging him. Those under his rule have
been mostly Indians like himself, and he
held out no inducements for others to enter
his dominions. He has maintained his
power not without great cruelties, but he
has never allowed the vices and crimes OF
civilized localities to thrive within his
borders. In many respects he resembled
old Juan Alvarez, Of Guerrero, who main
tanned absolute order in his own State dur
ing more than score of revolutions which
devastated the surrounding country. If
captured, as matter of course, he will be
shot. But we question very much if Lerdo
will ever be able to maintain as good and
honest q government as Losada's was
among the mountains Of Topic.
