— MEXICO. QUA FRESNILLO CORRESPONDENCE. @riega Unpopular—His Arrest and the Cir- cumstances Attending His Iinprison’ Bitterness of the Shetek of Hix M in ary Failures, &¢. Fresnitra, State of Zacatecas, ed Jan. 19, 1887. At the hour of r g Durango I wrote to you of ‘Bho arrest of Jesus 2 Ortega, whose claims wo the Mexican Presidency have attracted so much attention. ‘At appears that he reached Zacatecas on the Tth of Janu- ary with the determination to mako abold effort to rouse ths country to arms in his ‘favor, and, if possible, ‘ereate a revolution which might overthrow the power of President Juarez, He had with him a number of procia- mations, printed in Brownsville, Texas, or somo part of the United States, These he in part distributed; but be- fore tho movement was fully on foot he attempted to enlist Governor Auza, of Zacatecas, in his favor. The Governor was his warm personal friend and compadre and also related to him by marnage. Ortoga’s efforts to seduce Auza into his plans were useless. Auza had an interview with Ortega previous to his arrest, and told him that his plans were wild and impracticable; that ‘Mexico was entirely devoted to the constitutional gov- ‘ernment, a8 represented by President Juarez, and that he (Ortega) would find not the slightest support even in the State upon which he placed the most reliance, He told him that it was his duty to arrest him, and accord. ingly did so. The arrest was performed very qmotly end without any commotion, there being not a single effort made in behalf of the prisoner. In fact it is my observation that it is hard to discover ® man in Mexico ‘who supports Ortega’s claims to the Presidency, or who speaks well of hia oflicial career. I have conversed with many of his personal friends who, however much friend- ehip they entertain for him, pronounce him entirely unfit for any responsible postion either in civil or military life. ven two days since I was told by one of bis warm friends that Ortega’s course when the Fronch invaded Zacatecas was perfectly ruinous to the State, and that his management prevented any anited action against the enemy. He at that time gave guerilla commissions ed up every element of warfare that the State contained, withor ing the enemy a particle, Afer the arrest be, with ex-Governor Patoni, of Da- rang’ is only adherent of note—was started on the road to Durango, to be delivered up to the general gov- ernment. News of the arrest, however, boinz received ‘Dy the President, he ordered General Arcé, with a caval- ry force of three hundred men, to intercept the guard of the prisoner and convey Ortega to San Lais Potosi, which city the government will soon reach. General Arce intercepted the guard at a distance of about twen- ‘ty-tive leagues south of Durango, on the Zacatecas road, ear EF] Mortero, a bacienda of some note. There he took charge of the prisoner and reached Seni, a village within eighteen leagues of Zacatecas, on the 16th Janu- ery, and on the 17th instant proceeded on his route to ‘Ban Luis Potosi. advising the Minister of War that he should avoid ail the large towns and cities, taking a road which will leave Zacatecas to the southward. He will probably reach the destined point about the 23d or ‘24th of the present month. The feeling against him by the government is very Pitter, and 1 think they are disposed to deal very se- verely with him. At all events, he will not be allowed to disturb the coming elections, which will be ordered immediately upon the arrival of President Juarez in Mexico. 80 s00n as tho condition of the country and ‘the military service will permit, a court martial will be ordered and Ortega will have his trial as a deserter from the liberal army. Many charges, it is considered, may ‘bd brought against him, many more than the world out- ®ide of Mexico 1s aware of. To Ortega are attributed many of the disasters to tho liberal cause in the late struggle against the French. The government of Mexico has beretofore had too much national pride to state to the world all that it considers Ortega guilty of. If the trial be published it may be of much interest in connec- tion with the history of the French intervention. Ina short ré.umé of the public life of Ortega, as it is under- stood oy President Juarez and his Ministers, you will be pee judge of the points upon which a court will In the earlier days of the war for the constitation Or tega became Governor of Zacatecas, accidentally, from ‘the flight of the regularly elected governor of the State, and soon after marched with 1,500 men {« Degoliado, then engaged in the second sieye of Guadala- Jara, under the constitution, Degollado, through the foreign ministers, was tampering with tho liberal cause, ‘and, having been displaced by the government, Ortega, who, to give him some military grade, had been made a gonerai, was appointed to the command of the forces, and continued the siege, assisted by Zaragoza The iatter ‘waa, however, in every respect the man of she hour; and ® on Guadalajara fell. For this victory, however, Ortega, ‘took the cre: as commander-in-chief, and reaped the glory in the eyes of the poople, as will be scon.

He thus left the hbe1 Pi after ‘whipped Marquez, who headed a force of four thousand mop, and thus consolidated the liberal victory over the barb ty October 20, 1861. after 2% Won the victory over Lorencez in 1862, and drove the French back to Orizaba, Ortoga marched from Zacatecas via San Luis Potosi, to his si gorved under bim in front of Orizaba iM called Los Boregos, which commands the ety, and which the French had neglected oooupy. This point was to be made the salient effort of an attack upon the city, and Orteca was ordered to ecoupy it at night with asuilicient force to pour down heavy fire the next morning upon the French troops im She city, and thas operate in conjunction with Zaragoza, ‘who was to attack from another quarter. Oriega occu- pled tho hill with as many troops as he could crowd it, irrespective of military order, and guarded surprise so poorly, that daring the night a single barged and carried the hill, driving confusion from it. The result was a complete Zaragoza’s plans. Soon after the above defeat ied, and the public voice only rememberi Gundalajara, calted Ortega to the com to defead Puebla, despite the better judg- the government, whieh was doubiful of bis fl so important a trust.

Havana, Feb, 27, 1867. ‘The American schooner James Wyman, Captain Nel- son, from Nassau, N, P., on the 13th, arnved hero on the 16th, and sailed on the 21st instant with a supply of naval stores, &c., for the Lancaster. In consideration of the exceptionality of the case, the schooner was con- sidered as a man-of-war'’s tender. She was allowed to come and go without entry or clearance, and free of all charges, On Sunday, the 24th, we had the arrival of two large French veesels-of-war. One was the Bayard (a big four- decker of the olden times), commanded by M. Lefevre, thirty-four days ont from Cherbourg, and boand to Vera Craz to carry back as many of the French troops to their homes as she oan, having room enough, ft is said, for three thousand men. The other was the Lyon, transport, commandant Bullett, with six hundred and fitty troops on board and seven days out from Vera Craz, bound to France via Martinique. There appears to bea great dea! of sickness on board, One or more transports are hourly expected from Vera Cruz. As the troops are not allowed to leave the vessels their arrival is not of tho slightest benefit to this town, One Yaukee gunboat spends more for cigars and other creature com- forta than one-half of all the French transports to- There aro of these about twenty-five to arrive ‘On Friday last, the 224 inst., the United States steamer Corwin, Commander Piatt, steamed out of the harbor at seven A. M., to make the necessary soundings near the beach and a’ practical survey of the coast between the Morro Castle and the creek or cove of Marianao, in order to select the most convenient point to fix the cable’s end. Tho weather being good it was a pleasant trip to the land party invited. Soundings were accordingly made in the winding of San Lazaro, in front of Carmelo, and at the inlet of Marianao, To any novice Carmelo seemed to be the best spot, owing to its easy slope of coral sand; but the more scientific and practical of the party will be the best judges of that. Theswhole party partook of an excellent breakfast on board, ala four- chette, and when the Corwin anchored at Marianao a ven- erable old fisherman boarded her and informed Com- mander Platt (whose gatiantry on the occasion has not been exaggerated by the party on board) that he (the fish- erman) was the ‘Segundo Alcalde de mar.”’ and wished to know ‘what all that meant’? He was duly informed that they were all busy in the establishment of a sub- marino telegraphic cable, and although he could not exactly comprehend the’ meaning he !mmediately re- turned to the shore to apprize the people of the small hamlet near (a sort of water-bailif. When the Corwin returned to the harbor the band on board the Spanish Signe Gerona, ag we passed, struck up Yankee Doodle and hoisted the starry flag at the top, in honor of Wash- ington’s birthday. Herewith you have the result of the scientific part of the survey. Mr. John Neninger, rep- resentative of the Company, gave a dinner party in the evening, in celebration of the day. rit yt the present sojourners here are two very wealthy Italian noblemen, Prince Doria and Duke Gras! oli, of Rome, who are travelling for pleasure and amuse- ment. They belong to a good stock and the former your readers will know better than we do. In fact, Goneral Tom Thumb would attract more notice here than would these noblemen.

BRITISH HONDURAS. QUR HAVANA CORRESPONDENCE. Progress of the Indian War Agninst the iish—Belize im Danger—A United States Gunbout from Havana to Aid the British— An Indian Challenge to the Redcoaty—Origin of the Trouble-The Mexican Boundary juestion, &c. ¢ vin Havana, Feb. PA, 1867. The English schooner Venice, Captain Péters, from Belize, Honduras, on the 12th instant, arrivel here late on the evening of the 22d instant with the mails from Honduras for the West Indies and Europe. According to reliable information the ostensible object of the Venice coming to this port was to communicate with the English Consul General for the urgent necessity of his immediately sending an English man-of-war to Belize, to prevent the disasters which it was feared would occur within a very fow days aftor the sailing of the Venice. The Consul not having any British war ships within communication, applied to the American Consul for one of our gunboats now in harbor. This, I understand, will be cheerfully and promptly complied with, Itis regarded as very gratifyiug to observe the prevalence of this truly cordial feeling between the t principal functionaries representing the two great mari- time nations in this island. The Spanish admiral, I am also informed, has offered to send down one of his to Belize. The schooner Venice will return to Belize the moment the English mail steamer arrives; she is now due. When the Venice left Belize there were no vessels bound for the United States, From the information which I have obtained it ap- Pears that instead of four hundred troops, reported 4 the last Jamaica papers to have been sent down wit! Colonel Harley, only one hundred and fifty men arrived. At the hour of the sailing of the Venice no demonstra- tions of any serious character had been made by the In- dians, but it was supposed that they were only six days Journey from Belize. The Governor detained the Venice ‘as long as he could, with the intention of leawing in her himaelf, but that after due consultation he decided to remain and send to Havana for immediate assistance. After the troops retreated from San Pedro, the par- ticulara of which are already before your readers, @ stronger force was despatched from Belize, Three hun- dred men went up the Sibon river to march by land to San Podro, and one hundred more, under Captain Dela- mares, were sent up to Rio Hondo, When they arrived at San Pedro not a single Indian was met with—the: were all scattered about in the various timber ‘ walks,” burning down the mahogany “banks.” Kanul, the chief of the San Pedro Indians, geve out that they were quite ready to meet any force which the English could send against th and that they were in sufficient num- bers to carry on a war successfully forten years. Kanul sent a formal challenge to the English for a battle. At the same time a committee of four Indians were sent down by Santa Cruz, representing the chief Lotcha, of a separate section of aborigines, to hold a parley with the English, offering the Governor to bring down to Be- lize and deliver up Kanul and his men if the former would send him son rms and ammunition wherewith to aid him 1n the capture. The Governor being already greatly alarmod was weak enough to comply with the proposi- tion, and immediately despatched a “bungy” load (fift or sixty kegs) of powder. Of course the success whic! the Indian chief obtained by this ruse made the abor- igines very “‘saucy’’ ever since, and encouraged them to “measure” themselves with tho English. ‘One of the colored natives, named Frederick Reynolds, watchmaker by trade, instigated by many of the “upper” classes, engaged a bellman to go roundand give notice that ho intended to edify the Boose! with & becoming speech on the occasion of the Gov- ernor’s acis, ‘The Attorney General endeavored to prevent this but failed, and the sable watchmaker, having obtained a platform, ridiculed the weakness of the Governor for having been ou'generalled by the Indians in supplying them with the very means which enabled them to carry on hostilities with the English, Tue watchmaker’s pa appears to have been logical enough to have elicited three cheers from his audience, aod went far to show that if Kanul and Sania Cruz did appear as antagonists it would only end in a sham fight to attain their object, and further that, as soon as they obtained the power, the two chiefs will have joined their men, to enable them to take Belize, with little or no difficulty. The intention of the Governor to have left the place by the Ven'co would appear to corroborate those premisos. 1 do not know how far your readers may be acquainted ‘with the antececents of this ‘‘littie but troublesome” In- dian war; but I believe that it originated with a air. J. Hodge, overseer or master of the mahogany works at Rio Bravo, towards the end of April last year. The Indians allege that the lands are Mexican territot and that thé annual tribute has always been paid on that ground, Mr. Hodge refused to acknowledge the right of Marcos Kanul on the plea ‘that the lands wore English, and avers that ho only paid those annual tributes formerly to avoid difficulties. Marcos threatened to make prisoners of the English there unless Mr. Hodge continued to pay up, but as ‘Marcos had made the same threat on provious occasions Hodge did not think that tne Indian chief would carry the threat into execution. Mr. Hodge, however, made a great mistake, and at the time referred to Marcos made no leas than thirty-seven prisoners (oae of whom |s ab this moment in Havana), and carried them far in the interior on to Mexican territory, demanding $3,000 for thetr ransom. ‘The English authorities in Belize wore humane, but weak enough to pay the money, and the jsouers regained their liberty. But the consequences Le een ere een eee to go further. Before closing I ought to speak of another little affair which occurred recently at a piace calied Indien Church, The Ind.ans sent word to the ‘‘masier’’ of the locality to say that unless the “boundary money” was immedi- ately remitted, they would within eight days come there themselves to demand the payment thereof. The inbab- itants iramediately wade the n ons to awaitthe visit; but the time having expired when the threat was to be carried out the guard was sent home, and the peopie quietly returned to their occn| ns. ‘Three dayr later, however, while they were ali in the fields, the Indians appeared at an carly hour of the morning, ail m marching order, and having formed in file defied the red men, Thero was @ watchman at Indian Church, who, as he saw the Indians ee mg, fred, and killed one of them. Tie Indians ‘then scatiered about the town, killing and steaiing as they went along, and took away some prisoners, (i whom they afterwards reicased. The Indians carried a large number of cattle. Some of the peopie at tho first alarm attempted to escape and jum: into the river, but were fired at, and several of ihe fugitives were Killed, while othera escaped by laud to Belize, The overseer of the ity got up afew volunteers, num- bering to pursne the Fndians, but the force ‘was insuificient to do anything eflectuaily. Here tho story ends. It may as woil forma part of the never ending ‘‘muddle of Mexico.” MASSACHUSETTS, OUR BOST CORRESPONDENCE.

There bas been considerable of a trembling in financial ‘and business circles here during the past day or two, and even now there is a genoral feeling of distrust towards some of the oldest and probably staunchest houses in the country. All through the woek until Fri- day afternoon the brokers had manifested much joy at the success of their operations; but when Saturday morning came the news was whispered about that Mel- Jen, Ward & Co,, bankers, had gone under, and that their downfall would earry many to ruin with them. It appears now, but not known before, that this firm directed the management of tho Copper Falls, Huron, and several other fancy stocks, which have of late com manded high priées but which are now away down. The following comparative statement will snow the extent and rapidity of the decline in these inflated enterprises when their bogus character became known on Saiun » The excitement and distrust eaused by the falare of Mellen, Ward & Co., was considerably increased by the almost simultaneous announcement of the failure of several houses in New York, The chief sufferers by the Boston failure are belleved to be the State and Rational ‘banks in this city, and tho National Bank of Newt although there are other institutions as well aa nyt firms and individuals who will probably be efbcted in anything but a pleasant way. The older Adams of the Adams eeeay is maid to be — madi- vidual having put in or loaned $20,00¢ in cash only ® day of two previous to the pricking of the bubtie, The Newton Bank, it appears, suffered to suoh an oxtent ‘as to be ob! to take preliminary steps towards wind ‘up ite and the State Hank loses some Second National Bank $126,000, WI to be the most reliable statements are these: Mel.

The bank claims that the cashior violated positive instractions in certify. ing the check, and that as it had some time ago declined to go into the certifying check with other banks, and had given due and proper notice of its refusal, it cannot now be held to pay this check of $000,000, It certainly will not be paid until the end of considerable litigation, C.

He had been in the bauk several years, and had been cashier about @ year, and his reputation had always been good, Julius F, Hartwell ig the discharged offi from the Custom House alluded to. Tne tirm of Mellen, Ward & Co, was @ comparatively new one, aud the members are young men. Lhey have operated larzely in gold and copper stocks, and for some time have been hard up for money. The senior of the firm was in New York on Friday.

One of them, a Miss Kenohan, who has pre- sided at some of the ves’ mass meetings in Lowell, hag said, in giving an account of the condition of the operatives, that she knew of sixty and in some cases of seventy five persons boarding in one small house. There were also instances where operatives had been discharged for acting in favor of a ten hour law, and many are thus prevented from taking an active part in the movement through fear of losing their places, Out of two hundred apd itty in the room where she worked she had obtained the names oft two hundred and twenty-four to ® petition for a ten hour law, and they were sustained their course by the people of Loweli generally, f the Lawrence operatives told the committee that the girls were con- fined in the mills 80 many hours that they lost much time in consequence of sickness, When they cet through work at night it is go lave and they are so tired that they don't care to go out to take the frest air. Such statements as these, and others of a kindred mati have had the effect to create considera ble @ sympathetic feeling amoug the inem- bers of the Legislature, and it is understood that their investigations hereafver will include a per- sonal visit to the milis in Lowell aud Lawrence, and if the char, made against th corporations are weil founded a bili will be reported guaranteeing protec- tion against abuse, and probably providing for only ten hours’ labor, instead of eleven and tweive as now. The agitators for an eight hour law have generally with- drawn {rom active efforts or gone over with the ten hour petitioners. The report of the Labor Commission against an eicht hour law some months since has had the effect to discourage, or at Jeast postpone for a while, further efforts in that direction. The liquor and anti-liquor excitement continues to ran high, and we ranks of those sevking a license law is daily increasing, avd there is a corresponding decrease in the friends of a prohibitory law. The hearings before the legislative comiittee continue, aud are attended by thousands interested in the question, There is, how- ever, not much probability that a licenso law will be ed, although a bill will be reported by the Legis. lature. The stir was not made by the friend of the law in time to secure a majority in the Legislature; but public opinion 18 now being rapidly formed, and it is likely that in another year tie question of rum or norum will be carried inte politics, The State constabulary in different sections of the State continue the work of seizure, taking as much as $10,000 or $15,000 worth some days, The license law men are considering seriously the expediency of having large mass meetings simultaueousiy throughout the State for the purpose uf adding to their stock of public opinion, If they cau secure such men as Governor Andrew to Jead, the movement would undoubtedly be @ good one for their cause, Tue report of the majority of the Committee on Federal Relations against the constitutional amendment did not surprise many, for it was yeneraily believed that Massachusetts would foliow in the samo track of South Carolina. The report will of course beaccepied by a large majority of the Legislature, and if there are any arguments of any account brought up agalust it, Waiker, the colored meiner trom Charlestown, will probable be selected to lead the debate in favor of tue adoptioa of the report against the amendment. THE NATIONAL GUARD. AMENDMENTS TO THE MILITARY CODE ADill to amend the code has been introduced in the Assembly by Colonel Wagstaff, chairman of the Com- mittee on Militia and Public Defence, which seems to give general satisfaction, The first part of the bill is de- voted to changes in the euroliment of the ununiformed militia, The miniuinum number of non-commissioned ofiicers and privates in a company is fixed at forty-five and one bundred as a maximum, three hundred and sixty non-commissioned officers and privates being the minimum regimental organization, It is provided that there shall be a commissary general of subsistence, with the rank of brigadier general. One hundred and fifty dollars is Mixed as the limit of the rental for an out of town company armory, The clause exempting from jury duty alter seven years’ service is to be re- stored, Sections 45 and 57 of the code is amended, requiring the Commander-in-Chief to appoint and commission brigadier generaia upon the recommenda tion of tho major general commanding the division. The division sta to consst of an adjutant general, who Bhall be chief of stail’; inepector, engineer, judge advo cate and surgeon, each ranking a8 colonel; an ordnave® officer, a quartermaster and a commissary of subsist- ence, with the rank of lieutenant colonel; two aids-de- camp with the rank of major, and one aid-de-camp with the rank of captain, to be appointed by the major general commanding the division, The brigade staff is to consist of an adjutant general, who shall be chief of staff; an inspector, an engineer, a judge advocate and surcoon, each ranking as major ordnance officer, a quartermaster, a commissary and an aid-de-camp with the rank of captain and an aid-de-camp witn the rank of first Hentenant, to be commissioned upon appointment Of the brigadier ceneral, subject tothe approval of the division commander. 'A commissary of subsistence, with the rank of first lieutenant, is to be added to the Tegimental sta(f. INSTRUCTION OF RECRUITS. The system adopied by the various company niza- tions of instructing recraits in the school of the soldier by squads presents mony objectiouable teatures, which a uniiormity of driil on the part of regimenial officers could alone obviate, Colonel Theodore W. Parmele, com- ‘mandant of the seventy-first regiment, has introduced a system of instruction which, no doubt, will be generally followed by other commands in posting recruits in the duties of a soldier, Colonel Parmele assembles tho re- cruits of the several compantes comprising his command, ‘and forming them into a regimental recruit clase, super- Intends their instraction, assisted by one line officer and his lieutenants.

QUR PARIS SPECIAL FASHIONS CORRESPONDENCE. Dress Display at the Legislative Opening—An Austrian “ Wonder ” in Style—The * Agrip- pn’?—Shades of Silks—Preparing for Bale Masques—A New Color and New Hat, &c. Panis, Feb, 15, 1867. The opening of the Legislative Assembly is the most recent event of this week, the ceremony having taken place yesterday with unusual splendor, enbanced by the rays of a bright summer sun undera pure blue sky. ‘The Parisians wore all on foot, and thick crowds saluted the long procession of court carriages with respectful enthusiasm, The gala uniforms were very brilliant, the ambas- sadresses and ladies of the diplomatic corps most splendidly attired in a great deal of silver and gilt em- broidery on velvet, Mme. de Metternich wore quite a novel—casaque, for want of a better denomination, though the body of it was a Spanish bolero, made of silver ant! gold cloth. The wide, open sleeves, made of black velvet, were 80 long that they touched the ground, ending in points, and from the waist behind bung black velvet lappets, like a sash. This, readers, is the exact description of the first of a new series of matinée mantles. The new- born wonder is not yet christened. ‘Therefore we will call it heathenish, and charitably entertain a hope of its conversion into less expensive material. It certainly is @ most mediwval idea for the nineteenth century. The next novelty has been christened, Alas! I spoke of its adoption in my former letters, and said that though it was a narrow basque worn on front widths it deserved to be called a stomacher, Competent authorities have named it an “agrippa.”” “Here would I fain pause,” as once said a poet in great bewllderment, but iff did so the fashions would get ahead of mo, and not even the mother of Nero may startle me out of the main road. The “agrippas” figured on every robe at the last ball at the Tulleries. They are made of the same shade and material as that employed in underskirts, are trimmed with flowers, cross folds, fringe or ruche, and some appeared rather heavy, being Jaden with leaves and flawers.~ Lilac saiiu and salmon color were the predominant shades, a deep apricot foult de sole worked with green chenille and red berries was much admired. 1 should have preferred its rival, a white satin, marked with a rich sag pattern, if the wearer had been dark and tail enone! Preparations are being made for private bals masqués, ‘The public balls of this description given at the theatres mever can give an idea of the character to be given to fancy costumes in the higher circles, Great mystery ever preva'ls on the matter among those who make dress tue sole object of their existence, notwithstanding which it is evident that Cleoy Clytem- ‘nestras and all the antique colebrities are to take the lead. Ladies who do not boast of the rounded propor- tions so famed at Athens mean to try Hebe, Diana and oe characters remarkable for legs if not for shoul- lers. Tne American colony in Paris will give their grand ball on the 22d of February, at the Louvre, in honor of the great Washington. The French papers have been full of American entertatnments this winter, They have even volunteered a description of the ‘Virginia Reel, which is gaining great favor. The truth is that t Freuch acknowledge there is more real fan and amuse- ment in American home circles than in the official receptions we have had (o undergo as yet.
