Naws, §c., §c. Matters now wear a most unpleasant aspect in ‘thir conutry. The position of foreigners in parti: | cular is anything but agreeable. No one knows at what hour he may no the torn from his family and af. fairs and thrown into a dungeon, or hurried on board a prison ship, and finally forced to leave the country, without time allowed to give the least at tention to his business concerns. So far, however, none but Spaniards have been the victims of this ‘wanton and cruel abuse of power. Poor Spain! ashe appears to be in a condition, now, that even the Mexicans can kick her with impunity; and, if there be any greater indignity thon that, your corres pondent hos yet to lexrn what it is. Since the unnecessary and silly d'sarming of the population, the bolde-t robberies are practised here Foreign merchants, with often hundreds of thou- sands of dollars !n theic houses, are now at the mercy of all the incredible ruffianism that prevails in a Mexican seaboard town. It isa satistaction however, to know that many a snug little revolve: jies securely stowed away, and is daily examined as some precious jewel too rith to be exposed to val war eyer. Meanwhile the nabobs of the hour, (the Governor ard other high functionaries,) wear troubled coun- tenances. They have ample cause for deep solici- tade, even if there be no hidden and secret cause of alarm. Disaffection is rife. Pronunciamentos thunder in from diffrent quarters in apite of a Slavish press, gag laws and official rifliog of the mails. The troubles in Guerrero, Yucatan and Ta- manlijas are undoubtedly on the increase. Near ‘2,000 troops have been embarked at this place for the latter department, (to land at Tampico,) within @ fortnight; and though merchants can get no let- ‘ters from that section, rumors are not wantiag to the effect that his Serene High ness’s army have been badly used. Yet it is impossible to infer anything from the signs of the times in tis country. The Mexican nation is strong from ite very weakness, aud the - aol government may bs consider:d a3 about as rm as apy other one the coantry has ever had— simply ‘because n’ne-tent s of the population Tewlly do not know or even care wiat is going ov. Preparations are beicg made for prosceuting the ‘war with Alvarez vigorously by the time t!e climate ‘of the country inhabited by the ‘spotted peopls’ shall become somewhat safe for troops from the upland Mains. ff the present goverament hvlds on until e winter months, we may expe.t warm work in ‘Guerrero. Some doubt fs now expressed as to the capture of Count de Racussct Boulbon, aud those are not vwanting who declare that the man who has been taken at Guayamas is only a spurious Count de ~ ra who assumed that redoubtable name for effect We have odd repoets in circulation about the +$7,000,000. ‘You know the government at Mexico has been selling drafts on Almonte at 2 per cent premiom.

It will be borne in mind that these mea, at whose head the Count unfurled tie standard of rebellion, are a portion of the two thousand that were recently enlisted in San Francisco by Dillon ard De Valles—the French and Mexican Coasuls— snd sent by them to Guaywes to serve in the Mexi- can army, {t looks very much like warming into life the viper. The official despatch of General Yanez states thai the number of the troops under command of Boulbon was four hucdre}, while the force under hie comomand did not exceed three hundred soldiers and citizens. The government loss was fourteen killed avd a corsicerablo number wounded. The battle coctivued forthree hours.

About seventeen persons were scalded and otherwise injured, Mr. Dix the pilot, weston dying state, not having spoken since the explosion. Mr. Eckerr, the clerk of the boat, had his family on beard, ard two of his child:en were spverely injured. The injured men are principally deck hands.

The news from the south—the scene of the ex- plo ts of Alvarez aud his hardy mountaineers, is not veiy important. Gen. Noriega has teft the com- mand of the government forces in that sction, and followed His Serene Highness, to Mexico—bad health is reported to be the cause. General Mor¢no, in command of the army of ops- rations in the State of Guerrero, has had a battle. At the town of Zangaognato, on the 4th of August, he states he met the revolutionists, to the number o! 1,200, and after a well-contested battle, during which both armies foug.t with unprecedented heroism, he remained master of the field, having carried the €nemy’s fortifications, and put their troops to flight. The enemy lost 37 killed und 48 wounded, aud 42 were taken prisoucrs—among wnom were the milé tary .ommandant and the first and second judges of Tiapehuala, “whom,” Moreno remarks,“I wills i00t, in presence of my troops, at five o'clock this morn- ing, as an example to all factionists. The remain- Cex of the pri.o: ers I shall, as soon as possible, sand to the city of Iquala, to be placed at the disposition of the government.” Further slong, in his dissatch, Moreno ststes:—“I re-croased the river Tauguata, and encamped on its bank during the night, when I erain cominenced the retrogaie march to Tlapeha- ala, burping all the habitations of the rebels on both sides of the siver. Our loss in the action of the 5th was five billed and seven wounded, of the ligtt bat- talions of Zacatecas ard Guerrer.” Under the caption of “more triumphs in the Soutb,” we find that D.Juun Cienfresos with a detachmeut of troops from Coilpanzinzo had, while ic the ;usuit of a body of the rebels, captured ‘bree notorious chiefs, to wit: Pando Bello, Hilorio Sanchez, and Manuel Astadillo, with’several: ‘ing wrong, too, in New York.

It is, perbsps, well for these persons who do not knw this fever, to state that the symptoms are violent headache, strong fever, pain im the back and hips, genera! prostration, red eyes and face, &c. As soon as any of these symptoms are felt, it is urgent that the patient should at once make use of the above method. TELEGRAPHIC. YELLOW FEVER IN THE SOUTH. Convmmia, Sept. 2, 1854.
