MEXICO

Califondaandits great Importance to 'the United
I,tjtutqwe in Iderico--Proent
.
Fecibigs of Mc.rico Towards Texas.'
The inhabitants of California are for the Most
part Indiana; alarge proportion naked savages-who
notonly have no sympathies with Mexico but the
mosttlecided antipathy. ,
• Mexico has no troops there, and the distance
of the department prevents any being sent.
Capt. 'Suter; who was one of Bonaparte's officer's
and, I believe, is a Swiss, has for many,years had
an establishment there, and is the real sovereign of
the country if any one is the, real sovereign of the
country. if any one is certainly so,. deform if
.not dc jute. The government of Mexieo has done
none of these things, such as settlement, extending
her laws, and: affording protection, Which alone
give to civilized people a right to the country of a
savage one. 'As to all these, the natives of Cali
fornia are as much indebted to any other nation
as to Mexico; theylonly :know the government of
Mexico by the exactions and tribute which are le
vied upon by them—it is literally a waif, and be
longs to the first occupant. Captain Suter has
two forts in Calafornia and about two Thousand
per:Mus, natives and Europeans, in his employment,
all of . them armed and regularly • drilled. I have
no doubt that his force would be more than a match
for any Mexican force 'which will ever be sent
against him. He has once or twice been ordered
to deliver up his forts, and his laconic reply has
been; -"Come and take them. -
Front all the information which I have recived,
and T have been inquisitive upon the subject, I am
well Satisfied that there is not on this Continent a
ny c4untry of the some extent which combines us
man!; advantages as California. To say nothing
of other harbors in California, that of Sun Francis
co is capacious enough for the Natives of the
world, and its shores are coffered with enough'
timber (a Srt.4le:i of the, live oak) to build 0,494
navies. If man were to ask of God a China*" he
would ask just such an one as that of California.
if he had ever been there. There is no portion of
our western country which produces all the grains as
well; I have been told by more titan one person
on whom I entirely relied, that they had known
whole fields to produce--a quantity so incredible
that I will not state it. The whole face of the
Country is coveted With the finest oats growing
wild; sugar, rice, and cotton find their own congen
ial climate. Besides all these,' the richest mines of
gold and silver havebeen disCoverial there and the
pearl &heries have always been sources of the
large St profits; and Mare than these, there are the
markets of India and China with uothinginteescu
ingbut the calm mid stormleSs Pacific Ocean.
The distance-front the head - mitigation on
the Arkansas arid:Red riveri to a:navigable point
of the waters of the G&W' California is not more
than fiVe or six . ltuudd miles; let that distance
betivercome by a martial and What a vista is o
pened to the prosperity and power of our country.
I have no doubt that the time will come when
New Orleans will be toe greatest city in the world.
That period will be incalcul ibly hastened by the
measures which ! have indica•ed, whi ch would throw
into her lap the vast commerce of China and of
India. Great Britain, with that wise and farseeing
for which she is more remarkable than any other
government, has already the practical possesion of
most of the ports of the Pactiie Ocean—New Zeal
and and the Sandwich Islands, and very soon the
Society Islands also. We have a commerce in
that ocean of more than fay millions of dollars,
and not a single place of refuge fur our ships.
I will not say what is our policy in regard to
California. Perhaps it is that it remain in the
hands of Mexico, and that all the maritime pow
ers may hate the advantage of its ports. But one
thing I will say, that it wilt be worth a War of
twenty years to prevent England acquiring it,
which I have the best reasons for believing she
desires to do, end just as good reasons for believing
that she will not do, if it costs a war with this
country. I should grieve to see that country pass
into the ,hands of England, or any other of the
great powers.
Whenei IT the foreigners in California make the
movement of separation, it must succeed. The
department of Sonora, not half the distance from
Mexico, has been in a state of revolt fur the last
four years, and the government has been unable to
suppress it. The civil war there has been marked
by acts of horrible atrocity. which are almost
without precedent in any country. It is true
that .they do not eat the flesh of their enemies, but
they leave them hanging on the trees to feast the
birds of prey. There is scarcely a road in the
whold department tx here such spectacles are nut
daily exhibited.
The amount of the six.c.e annually obtained
from Mexico is more than half as great as
that which is kept ut onetime iu the bunk of Eng
land. The stoppage of this supply would very
much derange the whole monetary system of Eng.
land; on this account, it is to be apprehended that
in the event of a war between the United States
and .Nlexic, that England would very soon be in
voked in it. If the coast of Mexico should be
blockaded, England will demand that the line of
steam-packets to Vera Cruz should be exempted
from its operations. These packets, although
commercial vessels, possess a sort of quasi•gov
ernment character. This, of course, our got ern
meut could not concede; and the interruption of
the regular supply of the .precious metals from
Mexico would be moat disastrously felt in England.

Capture of the torn of Barita—Probabk Barren
- der of Matamoros. -
By the New Orleans papers of the 22d inst., and
an extra from the office of the Picayune, we have
the following cheering intelligence from the Scat
of War:
The steamship Alabama, Captain IL Windle,
arrived at a late hour on the night of the 21st.,
in 45 hours from Brazos St. Lugo, having sailed on
TueSday evening.
News at Point Isabel, official, had arrived from
Col. Wilson, with four companies of Regulars,
and three companies of Alabama volunteers, in
conjunction with 500 marines from the U.S. squad
ron, under command of Captain Aulieks, had
taken Barita without opposition.
General Taylor was to cross the Rio Grande,
for the purpose of taking Matamoros on Monday.
Having heard no cannonading at Point Isabel, it
was the universal opinion that the Mexicans had
evacuated the town.
Gen. Smith's command were on their way, and
had commenced their march on the island of Itocti,
Chica, to cross the Rio Grande at the mouth, mad'
advance up the river on the Mexican side.
Capt. NVindie reports that 2,000 Mexicans were
seen to march out of Matamoros, and it is said
they were almost in a state of starvation.
Colonels Marks and Walton's regiments were
complete, the "See having arrived the morning
of our departure; officers and men all well and in
good spirits. The officers wounded in the late
battles are doing well.
The following correspondence of the New Or
leans Picayune, receised by the Alabama, con
tains some additional particulars of interest:
LA BUIIITA, Mexico, May 17, 1840.
To the Editors of the Pittaytine: Here we are
within the Vice Royalty of Mexico, at a beautiful
little village on the right bank of the Rio Grande
eight miles from the Mouth. Old Zack—God
bless him!--has, through us, on this day planted his

Rio Grande at its mouth, and took up,their line of
march on its west or right bank for the small town
of La Burita; eight miles above; supported by the
C. S. steamer Neva, Capt. Frederick, on board of
which was a small detachment with a field piece.
To-day an express was received from Col. W
stating his safe and unopposed entrance into La
Burita, where he has taken up his position. •
Information was received tram Gen. Taylor last
evening, that he intended to cross over to Mata
moros early to-day. Early in the morning a few
cannon were heard. I suppose lie has taken the
place without opposition, as the remains of the
Mexican army, 2000 men, were two days since in
active preparation for retreat to San Fernando, 30
leagues south—the balance, not killed, drowned,
or prisoners, having scattered in utter confusion
to their homes. Never were an army so panic
stricken. In the retreat from the battle field of
the oth, Generals Arista and Arimudia led the van
on loot through the chapparal stripping off their
I clothes as they ran, and when they arrived at
the river, had nothing on but their shirts, stream
ing in the wind—they plunged in and swam across;
many of their deluded followers sinking into that
"sepulchre" that Akio had promised to "the de
generate sons of Washington." Better far is the
situation of the gallant AI. Bias Be La Vega, now
a prisoner in your city, who stood manfully at
his post, doing his duty, until captured, than fly a
coward. He is one of the few prominent men
who is highly esteemed by all who know him for
his virtues. Yours, X
P. S.—The. Mexicans lost 100 drowned on their
retreat crossing the Rio Grande; most of the
wounded, who were delivered up to them by Gen.
Taylol., have since died by neglect,•and want of
hospital means and supplies.
To the Honorable the Judges of the Court of General
Quarter Sessions of the Peace, in and for the coun
ty of 411egheny.
The petition of James E M'Elroy, of Moon town
