The Mexican schooner Reiampago, at
the Balize on the 8lh instant, brought news
Of rather belligent character from our
Mexican heighbors. This vessel came in
ballast--trought dispatches for our govern
nent--csrried home the Mexican consul
at New O'leans--and il issupposed brought
instructions to close the other Mexican
consulates in this country. We subioin
the circular of the Mexican Secretary Of
War and Marine. 1t will be seen that that
funciionary announces that the Mexican
government had "rcsoIyed upon declara-
ton Of war" and that notice Of their de-
termination would be sent in 10 the Con-
gress. We also append the editorial COM
ments o { the New Orleans Bulletin. with
the views OF which we entirely agree
The Mexican Congress was in session, but
up to The l9th, three days after the date of
the "circular," no declaration of war had
been made, nor had an embargo been laid
upon American commerce. A letter, how
ever, from Vera Cruz, dated 23d ult. thus
concludes


81 have 10 close this in hurry, as the
news is Just in town that war has been de-
cIareG against the Americans, and the yes
sells are going off Immediately, TO prevent
their being seized"


Tho N. O. Courier, Of the 9th inst. says: /:



"We have seen letters from Mexico Of
July %, which say war is inevitable. The
Senate of Mexico had assembled in order
10 discuss the question Of peace or war,
and the issue depended on their delibera-
lions. Until the result was known, the
Mexican ports would continue open as
usual TO American commerce."


lfany wMlike movement has been made,
il is an embargo laid upon American COM
merce--and, probably, the despatch OF for
ces towards the Texian frontieh
