Herald Special Report from the Capital. The Result of the Elections in Doubt. REVOLUTIONARY ROW IN TOBASCO. Ding Refuses to Give Up Arms Captured in Oaxnea to the Federal Government. TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORX HERALS. The Hzratp correspondent at the Mexican capital sende us the following special dee spatch:— Crry oF Mexico, July 26, Via Matamoros, July 27, 1871. The result of the election is still in doubt, although the chances are somewhat. in favor of Juarez. The Permanent Deputation wants new elections in various districts where there were informalities, &c. Very bad feelings have been engendered by this contest; charges of the most barefaced frauds are brought by all parties, and none are satisfied. It is more than possible that the result naay be rebellion, as neither Juarez nor Lerdo ia disposed to acqui- eace in the election of the other. A revolutionary row has broken out against the Governor of Tobasco. This, however, is @ comparatively small affair, and is the result of local or personal misanderstanding. Rumors are rife throughout the city that Governor Diaz refuses to give up to the fed- eral government the guns which he captured from the Austrians at the taking of the city of Oaxaca, in 1867. The belief is that he fears Juarez may use them against him in case he (Diaz) should be chosen President, and he takes this method to provide against such an emergency. Probably Generals Rocha and Alatorre will go with troops to enforce the de- livery. If guch an expedition be undertaken its results may not be satisfactory to the gov- ernment if Diaz sees fit to resist. Oaxaca has always been restive under the Juarez rule, and Diaz is the idol of the people, not only of the city and State of Oaxaca, but of the whole of Southern Mexico.
