Prominent Fenians here, however. have been heard to say that the great work will soon commence at an unexpected point, and immediately spread over the whole Canadian border.

This difficulty is spreading all over New Eng land. All the Northern New England railroads are either refusing to carry the mails now, or else have notified the Government that they will only carry them thirty days longer. The difficulty is this the contracts for carrying the malls in New England and New York expired June 30, 1865, having been in force four years.

Santa Anna has written a private letter to Scnor Romero, ex plaining bis views in reference to the war now waging In Mexico between the Liberal Govern ment and the Austrian despot, and giving as surances of his desire to support and fight for the Liberal Government against Maximilian, etc. But Senor Romero declines to have any intercourse in an official capacity with Santa Anna, and refers him to President Juarez, on the gTOund that Santa Anna has recognized the Empire, and by the luws of Mexico Is cousldcred a traitor, and liable to trial before a military court-martial on that charge. Santa .Anna's efforts to convince the loyal Mexicans tbat he is heart aud soul with them has failed. From San Francisco. San Francisco, June 3.

Cortina has been completely de feated by Olvera, who, leaving Matamora during Ue nisrht, marched to where Cortinas was encamped. The force of the latter was not great about 150 to 200 men, of whom 30 were killed and 60 made priso ncrs. Their leader lost his watch, coat, sword, and pocket-book, but siril w2s lucky enough to escape, nearly naked. on a horse without a saddle. One of his otfiiers, whom the Imperialist Journal styles "the Ame rican filibusteto of high rank," was killed, and afterwards hanged. This delcat was followed by another, in which Cort naslost 118 men made prisoners, rifled cannon, 69 hordes, aud a large quantity of s ores; also, over 50 ot bis men wete killed, many being Americans. So favorable an account is not given by tbe Imperialists as to the situation ot Tampico, in spite of the exertions of Colonel Lupin. While he was driving the Republicans before him, and arrived at Ciudad, Victoria, Gomez, the suc cessor of Garza, managed to escape, and has appeared at twenty leagues irom rarupico autu head ot 60 cavalry. One of his officers pene trated to Carocol, cistuut six leagues from fain pico, and completely destroyed tt.

Maximilian, it Is said, is protecting a lournev to Guadalajara. The authorities of T uxpan and Jungapeo have acknowledged the Empire, but are full of tear of the Republican bands which abound in their neigbDornoou.
