The Mexican Revolution, THE ATTACK ON MATAMORAS— EXCITEMENT ON THE FRONT [From the New Orleans Picayune, Oct, 31 ) an the arrival, this morning, of the schooner Major from the Rio Grande, we have im; it invel- Jigence from the theatre of ' i ma i. war, on the Mi frontier, y 5 We have uo papers by this arrival, and the information which we bave recetve i is somewhat incoherent, though interesting. It appeare that the revolutionary forces under Cavavajal, had attacked Matamoras, and after a desperate fight. succeeded in eutering the city; but ha- ving | that a small American steamer, plying on the Rio Grande, was coming up with Mexican troops, a body of the revolutionists, consisting of about 200 Tex- ams, was detached from the main feree, aud proseeded to attack her with the intention of capturing the Mexicans ‘8nd seizing two pieces of artillery which were oa board. ‘The commander of the steamer having obtained infor- mation of this movement, immediately put about, and Preeeeding tothe Brazos, placed the troops and two pisces of artillery on board the American war steamer jeptunmo, There they remained when Uapt. Arnet left the Brazos It was thought that the troops were anxious to join the revolutioniste. diversion of the f'exans from Caravajal, caused a suspension of the attack upon Matamoras But the re- volution Jeader was hourly expecting reinforcements the direction of Camargo, aud whea rej taed by two hundred Texans, the attack waa to be resumed with vigor, There can be little doubt that Matamoras fi inco the hands of Cara¥ejel om Friday or Satucday From verbal reports, we learn that many of the United States troops on the upper line have deserted, and joined Caravajal We also hear that despatches have Deen received here forjmore troops. In the first attack on Matamoras, it is stated that the revolutionary forces lost. only three men in kiiled, but ‘the mortality on the side of the Mexicans was much greater We have no particulars as to the number of troops under General Avaios, but his men are said to have fought with great bravery. When Vaptain Arnet left the Brazos, the Neptuno was ready coeled, and it was supposed would make for a port tome 150 miles south = The commander of the Mexicans asked permission to march through the United States territory. in ordsr to reach Matamoras, but this was re- fused. “The appearance of the Texans probably pre vented him from going up on the Mexican side. Our next news from the Rio Grande, which, will be brought by the steamer funny or brig Brownsville, we look for with great interest. The Fanny will probably arrive by Sunday or Monday.

Another Chapter om McDonough, the Millionaire. About the middle of last August, after a labor of | | fine upon offenders in that respect. Laws have also | been enaeted by Congress, providing for the eurvo, nine months, the notary completed an inventory of the volebrated McDonogh estate. It seoms that his effects, embracing bills payable, amount to the Sum of two millions five hundred and ten thousand two hundred and fifty-iwo dollars and sixty cents, ($2,510,252 60.) This estimate falls far short of the impressions respecting the old man’s wealth at the time of his death—immensely less than his own cal- culations. McDonogh was a strange creature in many respects. It would be very wrong to designate him as a miser, in the ordinary acceptation of the term. Althouga the item in the inventory referred to as‘ articles used by the deceased, personally,” do not exceed tho meager sum of $28 85, an inspec: tion of his correspondence, his known contributions to colonication societies, and the number of slaves he manumitted and transmitted to Liberia at his own expense, establish that he 1taust have expended eevera! hundreds of thousands of dollars in the cause of colonization. He closed his pockets hermetically against private cbarities, and exacted his dues tothe t farthing with e pertinacity and remorselessness that would have done honor to the Jew of the play. In purevit of acredited J me he would swim through an ocean of widows’ and orphans’ tears. His great energies were devoted to the acquisition of posthu- mous notoriety, and he was as satisfied of securing it as Horace, or Bacon, or Millon. ‘lo this end, from earliest wapheod to th» last moment of his exist- ence, he adopted the abstemiousness of an anchorite. He knew his fellow men only as the possessors of “certain moneys” which he must obtain. He met them only on the “Rialto” | find chat he once be- came tender and “sighed like furnace” in the ears of Madame Pontalbe, when she was a merry-hearted girl. Even then, | sm disposed to think that money rather than love was the cause of his wooing, for the lady was ‘he wealthiest heiress in the Cres- cent City. She laughed at his vows, and young McDoncgh wedded- celibacy. I cannot omit here a characteristic aneedote. After the !apse of many years, when both parties bad become rankly “sere,” it became import»nt for the widow Pontal- order to carry uut some projected improve- ments, to purchase a small jot, o: listle value, that belonged to the eccentric Mac. She approached him with smiling face, after her agent had been re fused the purchase, and begged of him not devy her the favor. She plead the old love he bore her. It was too much forthe old mau. Apparently very muchafected, he consented to dispose of the lot, worth some few hundred dollars, for the price of fifty thousand dollars. As I heve already intimated, he devoted his life to accumulation, fer the sole purpose of investing his acquisitions in such @ manner that immortality might ensue. [t is curious to notice in corroboration, the comments ho is constantly making in his staid Iegers, in seference to the ac- eretive value of his various purchases. In his bold caleulations he dispels futurity asa house- maid would a spider's web—‘‘a year is but as w day.” Fora mere song, he purchases a frog- tenanted swamp lot. The entry of the arqui- tition is duly made. ‘Then follows his vatici- tion: ** In two handred years, this lot wil! be worth one hundred thousand dollars” Throughout his entire will, the same morbid disposition for future fame is apparent. [ie will have none of his posses- sions severed. Then, again, be huxts up aschome of philanthropy, utterly discordant to every feelin, of his nature. I have no doubt his original invention was to invest his property in Lowe grand colonization Peciset and it is probebio that his clear head und it impracticable, 70 he becomes a fierce lover ofjuveniles—he who had lived « long life in utter disre , or rather in positive violation, of eve: socialtie.

Yet, nevertheless. «iJ these enactments of Congress, the public lands ef the United Stat have become free plunder for wll the world, ‘and t! rest of mankind.” The pre emption laws are iu n manner regarded, except for the fraudulent entry of choice and valuable parce's of land; upon the unsurveyed public domain there are now over 250,- OOOSetiiers, each bolditg his possession in defiance of the penalties of the law; aad the public laod sales bave become mere mockeriws—land speculators aud squatters combining together to prevent, = menace and violence, all bidding at the public lan sales; and thus are all of the existing land laws of the United States rendered ) ugatory.

Then, if these land warrants should be made assignable by a subsequent enactment of Congress, they will be the means of severing from the public domain of the United Staves all of the choice and valuable parcels, and of conveying the same to land speculators; and thereby inhibiting, for a long time to come, the cultivation of large extents of the richest and most fertile lands of the continent, whereby idleness will be fostered, the price of provisions increased, and want and poverty awarded to many of the people Ifthe public lands are to be relied upon as & means of revenue for the replenishment of the na- tional treasury, (and | advocate that they should not,) the lab poor of the old States (who are the chief consumers of importations, and oconse- quently the principal contributors to the national treasury,) have aright t> demaad that the lands sold should bring the highest obtainable price; and et (the government ut Washington having al- lowed the land laws of the United to beeomo dead letters.) the best parcels of the public lands are being disposed of aud parted with for mere no- sp es Enclosed herewith, I send you a printed copy of a communication which |, some months since, ad- dressed to the Commissioner of the General Land Office, at Washington, and whieh braces @ truthful acpount of “squatterism,” as it now exists on the public domain of the United States.
