The Cape Town Standard copies the special report of the leader of the Hgraip corps of explorers, dated at Kwihara, District of Unyanyembe, July 4, 1871, in full, publishing the matier to the exient of several columas. The proprietors of the Cape Town newspaper refer to the subject editorially also. In this editorial the writer makes use of the fol- lowing sentences :—‘‘Since the New York HeERAtp performed its «reat telegraphic feat on the occasion of the visit of the Prince of Wales to our consins across the Herring Pond it has attemp'ed nothing so original as the great feat ibat it bas undertaken of sending an expedition on its own account to find Livingstone alive or dead, The descrip- tion given by the Heratp Commissioner of the difficulties he had to surmount, and the information he had obtained up to the 4th of July, 1871, we give as we find it in the THerarp, and, althoush it is of considerable length, it is of much interest, The expenses of the expedition are enormous.” And again: “there can be little doubt that an Baglish government expedition will be sent out, and that not many months will have passed by before we have something decisive before us. For the present we shall have to watch the letters of the New York Hrratp Commis- sioner.” The press of the Cape of Good Hope represents the interests of some of the most active minds in the Old World, as also the cause of civilization and progress in Africa. It is, therefore, the more pleasing to find that its writers will pause, in their duty of the consideration of territorial matters, of mines of diamonds and gold, and of the serious subjects of colonial parliamentary representa- tion and royal government, generally, to ad- mire the encouraging gleam which is made to shine in Africa by American ener, directed by American newspaper enterprise and ability.

No Confirmation of the Reported Recapture of Zacatecas by the Revolutionists, IS ROCHA ROUTED AND A PRISONER 2 Forced Loans by the Revolutionists--- Their Reported Demoralization. OUTRAGES ON AMERICANS. = The Revolutionists Desirous of Annexation to the United States, AMERICAN FILIBUSTERS INVITED, TELEGRAMS TO THF NEW YR\ HEALD. The HeRaLp correspondent in Matamoros has forwarded us the following special de- spatch :— Matamoros, Mexico, March 30, Via Brownsvitie, Texas, March 30, 1872. There are innumerable rumors in circulation regarding the recent battle between the gov- ernment troops and the revolutionists near Zacatecas, which is said to have resulted in the disastrous rout 6f the former, the capture of their commander, General Rocha, and tho reteking of Zacatecas by the revolutionists, It is, however, difficult to say whether these rumors be true or not. The revolutionary General Quiroga repeats the report, professedly received by a reliable courier, of Rocha’s complete defeat by the combined forces of the revolutionists, under Martinez and Donato Guerro, without giving details of the battle and its alleged conse- The re- port of the capture of General Rocha himself is yet unconfirmed, and is probably an ex- aggeration. PROBABLY AN ARTFUL DODGE. All these rumors are doubtless spread by the revolutionary chiefs to counteract Rocha’s victory and to raise the courage of their ad- herents, which has been at a low ebb since the defeat of Trevino and the loss of Zacatecas. By awakening new hopes the revolutionary leaders expect to gain facililies for obtaining men and means to enable them tojcontinue the struggle. They are straining every nerve to raise money, without which their cause will soon be lost. As the required funds are, however, not forthcoming voluntarily, the revo- lutionists levy forced loans everywhere, com- pelling foreigners as well as natives to pay the sums demanded of them. OUTRAGES ON AMERIOANS AND NO PROTECTION. The United States Consul and other Amer- icans in Monterey who refused to pay, and whose stores were forcibly entered and robbed, were enjoined by instructions from Washington not to pay towards the support of the revolution, They sent a copy of these instructions to the Rebel government, and it was treated con- temptuously. A commissioner delegated by the American residents has also arrived to represent affairs to General McCook in Brownsville and to ask protection against the extortions of the Mex- ican leaders. General McCook, as situated at preseat, is, of course, powealess. THE REVOLUTIONISTS DEMORALIZED.

THE STRUGGLE IN TAMAULIPAS, There fre small bands in the State of Tamaulipas fighting with varied success, but with noimportant result to cither the govern- ment orthe revolutionisis. General Canales, the Governor of Tamaulipas, is still unde- cided, Ho remains neutral, awaiting events, and will probably join the side which is likely to be successfui, The revolutlonists again promise an early attack on Matamoros, The bonded goods recently sent by steamer from Brownsville to Camargo for the revolu- tionists have safely arrived in Monterey. The clearing of vessels from American ports for Mexican ports which are held by the revo- lutionists causes great exultation among the latter, though it is thought to be useless, the river being now so low that navigation is impossible, Trevino and Quiroga Preparing to Move on Camargo—Tue Robber Cortina in a Critical Position, ‘1a NEW ORLEANS, Advices from Camargo to the 29th Inst, ‘report General Trevino at that place, preparing, in con- junction with General Quiroga, to move on this city ‘with 2,000 men and six pteces of artiliery, General Cortina, alter his defeat at Barqueria, being unable to reach Reyvosa, attempted to join the government troops in the Interior, with what success is unknown, a March 31, sat} CENEREL SUBRILANY TOUR.| WASHINGTON, Hlerald Special Report from Cairo.
