Rebs Receive Supplies.

-Mexieali, Feb 20.-Supplies sent by began coming to the insurrectos today They were hiuled in pack wagons and consisted of provisions, ammunition and clothing: Lsyva, heretofore dress ed in civilian clothes appeared today in corduroy uniform, similar to that which Berthold wore on his return from Los Angeles.
 Receipts of supplies delayed the preparations for immediate departure on an cffensive campaign. It ia said the insurrectos may not leave until late in the week and even then it is said they may not go to Eosenada, although that Is their objective. It is intlmated that the first attack will be on Las Juntas, where Gov. Vega is supposed to be reorganizing his shat tered forces.
 The report that Gov. Vega had one hundred thousand in state funds with him excited the cupidity of the in surrecto. leaders. "With that sum we could buy battery of machine guns." said Leyva and then we could hold Lower California against the entire Mexican army. Berthold claims that as the result of the arrival of ammu- milton, 400 men are all fitted out and each has more than a hundred rounds in his belt.
