Files Of Mexican apers, from the city of Mckee
10 the 18th September and from Vera Cruz severa
dsys later have been received by the United States
sloop.oE war John Ada ms, recently arrived at Pen
sacola The most intere sting intelligence contained
in them has already been furnished us by the New
Orleans papers, the John Adams having touched Al
the southwest pass, on the 7th instant, on her way
to Pensacola. ....... ..


General Salas and his coadjulors in the new gov
ernmen appear to be very active in is suing DEGREES
and the papers are still filed with decal atoms, from
different parts of the country, Of sdhe SION to the
present authorities and to the plan of the citadel
breathing very patriotic spirit in pompous terms
but there does not seem to be any manfss tation OF
substantial patriotism among the people. Al edi'o-
rial Of the Monitor Republicano, OF the 18th ofSeP'
tember, is in the following diseonsolate vein;


"In the midst of the Joy which we experience 10
thinking on the smiling future Of The republic, SO
far as respects lis liberties and It's interns adfnlnis
tration, il the men who now at the head OF
aairs inspired by patriotism and good faith, con-
tnue 70 pursue the path Of law and justice, cur i'm
aginaton presents to US the sad picture now exhib-
tied by our northern frontiers. The bitter rehec-
tlons TO which il gives RISE check our reoclngs, and
cause 10 shudder at the fatal consequences which
may result 10 US from the state OF abandonment IN
which they are left. Invaded on all Sides what is
the force which we present in opPosltionl IL may
be truly said, that Of inertia only for when New
Mexico, chihuahua, the CALIFORNIA;, Tamaulipas,
and the coasts the Gulf threatened the succors
which have been sent TO Tamaulipas are nothing,
compared with the magnitude Of the invasion. The
enemy attacks US on all sides, while we are able to
oppose resistance on one only. What will be the
probable results Of this immense Disparity What !!
must we lose the CALIFORNIA;, New Mexico, Chlhua-
hua The recent occurrences in New Mexico, afford
| much reason TO ponder on the probability Of these
losses. The activity Of the American nation Is un-
| exsmpled. Their numerous population, unwilling
TO remain idle in the citeS, engage in perous enter
prises, with the hope ofacquiring property by the
| cesslon which the government OF the Union makes
10 them of lands in the newly acquired territory
To the enterprislng spirit of these adventuTers we
could oppose nothing than the resistance OF the
inhabitants Of those frontier States which are In
vaded, who, actuated by patriotic motives, or by the
Just desire of preserving their property and their
| religion, would make an obstinate resistAnce
| But how can this hope remain TO US
when the whole republic is supne' On the Other
hand the neglect with which government has
in general treated the interests of the frontier States


s an additional reason why their inhabitants should
| be discouraged, a time when perhaps they alon,
| would he able TO themselves, and save the re-
public from greater disasters for it is not to be dis
guised that the result Of the of the north is about
to be the sentence oflife death to the republic.
| "The monarchists are not slumbering; they are
still awaiting favorable opportunity and they ex-
pect to find It in the northern question. There are
Infamous Mexicans who desire the enslavement OF
their country, and who would solicit with pleasure
| the European intervention"


The Diano Official Of The 10Th Of September, pub
fishes the documents relating to the occupation OF
New Mexico by General Kearny. General Armi-
10, in a letter dated at the town Of Manzano, Aug
90 and addressed to the commandant general Of the
department of chihuahua, General Ugarte,) an
nounces his arrival in that town with sixty men, all


he says, that would follow him from Santa''Fe. He
promises to explain verbally to General Ugartc the
reason why the others abandoned him. He says
that the population was generally in favor Of the
American government, and that the number o.
United States troops in Santa Fe, 10 his certain
knowledge, did not exceed three thousand, nor fal
short Of twenty-five hundred. Gen. Ugarte subse
quently marched at the head of such troops ms h,
could find in the department of chihuahua, for the
purpose Of proceeding to Santa Fe, followed by
Gen. Armjo with his sixty men as rear guard
but while on the road, Gen, Armlio, who WINS
days march behind General Ugarte, sent an express
/
lively, and beyond all doubt, that 5000 American,
would appear in the preside del Norie on the las
day of August precisely. Whereupon Gen. Ugart'
came to halt.


The following arc some of the comments Of tn,
Diario on publishing these documents:


! ave have the disgust of publishing to-day, al
we promised yesterday, all the documents relative
to the occupation of New Mexico by the troops o
the United States, taken from bulletin No. | Of Chi
huahua, and we have published them entire, with
out omIttlng even comma, in conformity with ou
determination to conceal nothing from the nation
| which we desire should be informed of the who'll
extent of the evils which threaten it, and Of il
critical situation. Among these documents is mar
rative of the most remarkable events which have oc
Cured in New Mexico since the entrance ofthe invad
ing army in which read among other things, tn
following: 'On the 18th [of August dispute aros
between the chiefs of the auxiliary forces and h


general, in consequence Of their different opinions
to the defence from all which it resulted that tn
troops dismissed to their homes, and the gene
raj retired with the regulars and artillery men to
II ~ rds (1aliateo The Deople of Ney
Mexico, in general attribute the loss of the depart
ment to General Armijo, and uics uersa.'" .
A decree or order was issued by General Salas
on the 4th of September, appointing board Of fou
commissioners to draw up plan for rewarding do
| serters from the American army, by offering cea
sion of lands and other encouragements. From tn
preamble to this Decree it appears that it is founde
on the supposition that not only many of the regu
lar troops, but many Of the volunteers of the United
States army, foreigners, who have resorted to
soldiers life merely as a means of livelihoods ant
that nothing more is required to induce them to de
sert than to offer higher reward than they receiv
from our own government. This decree is part OF Z
scheme for cajoling foreigners, sketched some tim
ago in Vera Cruz paper, and apparently now seri
ously adopted by the'government. The Diario Of
cal has the following remarks on this subject;


snow we have combattcd them [the Unite
Statesl with their own weapons: our cosmopolitan
is more extensive; our institutions are more FREE
than their own. In Mexico, there are no slaves
nor is there a single man who can be treated wors
than the beasts, like the unhappy negroes Of Louis
lana and other States. Even slaves, coming from
other co,ptriea fhe thew to,ich IN
