The Tya:t d’Union has given an account, which all the Mexican papers copy, of a great Mexican oo whom it is desired to rescue from obscurity. ithout any education whatever, it is said be has attained wooderful acquirements as @ musician, na- turalist, mecha: ic, &c.

A decree providing for the election of a prefect in each of the districts of Oajaca is promulgated. They are to have a salary of $1,300 each, with an allowance of $500 for expenses.

So tar srom there being avy ground for fresh re- a outbreaks at Guadalsiara, &c., as published Saaene of the city peoers last week, communica- us abd notices iv the papers of Mexic> must make it quite as clear to all, as it was thronghont to us, that these were merely exaggerations of occurrences, the vature of which, and eveu the results, had long previous'y been noticed here. For tmstance, of the cutbreek at Guanajuato,we gave an account of its baving been caused by an evdeavor to make the | levies tor the army, of fifty soldiers having been sent | by ope route acd two hundred by another to put down the emeute; of this having been done; of Capt.

From Guacalsjurs we see a communication in the Orden, written ax late as the 20th ult ,in which the present peaceful and favorable position of that city and the State, in comparton with what it was a ers time since, is a subject of characteristic gratu- Hien. Forty robbers had assaulted the town of Cos by bight, and sacked it with impunity. The Orden, of the 31st ult., publishes from the Gaceta de Guatemala & number of despatches from the various officers engaged in conducting the war with Honduras. They do not refer to fucidents so lste~as we already have intelligence on the subject but are of some interest. One givesan account of a Victory of the Guatemalians at San Aatonio, on the 12th of July, under Vicente Cerna, The action which he has made to punish the Indians,and | sanse, according to the | began at 7 A M.. and was concinded by 1 P. M. | The loss of the Hondurans is said to have been 100 | Billed, a cannon and about 200 muskets faliing into | the bsnds of the victors, but about 500 muskets | being lost by the Hondurans. The vanquished Hon- | durans retreated towards msjians had tweuty four wounded and eight or ten | killed. Ou the 13th the victors marched into Oco- Se eque, which they found abandoned, as they had all other places, under orders trom the Governor, heighteved by representations made by the Hon- dusans that the citizens would be killed aod plundered if they remained there. They re- tumed, however, on being assured of safety and protection, and expressed some idea of pro- Louncing in favor of the republic of Guatemala. On the 17tu, Gen. Granados proceeded with 3,000 men from Ocotepeque to Lianos, sending before him an assurance to the municipal government of that place | that order would be preservei by the army, all pro- visions required paid for at fair prices, and. Tequest- | ing that care should be taken that they were reuder- ed procurable. In the meantime, minor expeditions were sent out from Ocotepeque, and the whole State of Chiqvimula freed from the Houcuran troops. On the arrival of Granados at Llaaos, on the 19th, Ca- | banas fled with what troops remained with him, among whom were the emigrant Generals Lope, Nu- fio, Rubi, Mendez, and others. Ganados immediate- ly countermarched, althongh Honduras now remain- ed undefended before him. Cabanas was hovted as | he left the plaze. He took the road to Santa Bar- | bara, some suppose, with the view of embarking, | others with that of reinforcing himself. Several other robbers and assassins besides those already named bave been executed. New rules for the rozulation of the mail service have been promulgated.

We notice ‘s moderate increase in the ext nt of operations, and a slight advance in prices, but the upward movement ap- pears to be without strength or cheracter. We doubt if outsiders have been at all attracted by the improvement in market value. The combinations at work on each fancy have the transactions entirely to themselves, and inatead of extricating themeelves from the position pre” vious speculations placed them in, the probabullty is they are daily getting deeper in‘o the mire.
