Massacre in Mexico. --Advices from Monterey, Mexico, announce that Mejia had entered the town of Rioverde, about forty miles from San Luis, at the head of two thousand men, and that he butchered two hundred men who defended the place, sacked, pillaged and burned the houses, and returned to the mountains.--The little defensive force, especially the officers, contested every inch of ground, but had to yield at last. Doblando had sent two thousand men into the mountains to punish Mejia. The new Mexican tariff is complained of as being too high and likely to interrupt trade.
