whole campaign of both Generals, the citizens were paid in gold for every dollar's worth that was obtained from them. Both the Generals issued orders of the most emphatic character, and Old Zack publicly denounced a regiment from Indiana as chicken stealers and hen-roost robbers. The same regiment ran away at Buena Vista. It is not surprising that they did run. Roguery and cowardice are twin brothers. Yet the same race who so emphatically approved the policy of the Government in its Mexican invasion, are now pursuing the very reverse of that policy. The Government itself has given a general license to plundering, and our citizens who happen to be in the line of march of the enemy are ruthlessly despoiled of their property. No voice is raised at the North against this system of rapine. Nobody says anything in rebuke of this outrage on private rights, and the press, terror-stricken, dares not say a word in denunciation of it. The people of the South are not, in the opinion of

Arizona. --Gov. Baylor, when in Vicksburg, on his way to Richmond, spoke very favorably of affairs in the Territory of Arizona. He is confident of being able to hold it.

ance, which will give a satisfactory and permanent settlement to the Italian question. This being the grand object of the Emperor, it is deemed politic to cultivate friendly relations with the Confederate States, who, as nearest neighbor to his Mexican monarchy, will stand between it and the once valiant asserters of the Monroe doctrine. In addition to these political considerations, there are others, of a commercial character, which, together, are believed to have determined the Emperor is most too good to be true, though it is not without the endorsement of strong probability. It will be observed that the brief telegraphic dispatch of the late English news, which we publish this morning, from the New York Herald, states that "Mexican affairs, with the schemes of Napoleon, are exciting much interest in Europe. " May not the recognition of the Confederacy be included in his "schemes, " as a part of his diplomatic programme? The presses of Lincolndom have recently manifest

re of the steamer Labuan having been declared illegal by the Prize Court, gives great satisfaction. New York Central sixes have advanced one percent. All other descriptions of American securities have (June 3) receded one per cent. The Mexican question. There was a rumor in Paris that Napoleon contemplates the permanent establishment of French influence in Mexico by means of a protectorate. The Paris Moniteur, of June 7th, contains a notification of the blockade of the Mexican ports, Tampico and Alvarado. A dispatch from Paris, of the 6th of June, says: The publication of the official documents relative to affairs in Mexico, produced an impression little favorable to Gen. Prim. The documents relative to Mexican affairs were laid on the table of the Chamber of Deputies on the 3d of June. Great Britain.

army, and the official order of the United States Consul not to engage the services of any more French officers, it was not understood, and was consequently made a point of active canvass. The inference became prevalent that the new levy was required owing to the "ticklish relations" existing, or likely to soon exist, between France and the United States in consequence of Napoleon's policy and war in Mexico. The writer considers that this question has a very serious aspect, and that the "Mexican imbroglio will be the means of showing whether the Emperor has a disposition to interfere with the affairs of the United States." He adds: "If he has, he will not lack in pretext for seeking a quarrel." The London Times publishes a letter from its New York correspondent, which indicates to England very plainly — and sensibly, for a wonder — that the United States will soon become "the greatest military and naval power in Christendom.

The Mexican forces were not, as has been stated, in greater number than the French. On the contrary, they were in less numbers, and a portion of them only had the advantage hood there is in it, time will develop; still, our opinion is that Napoleon knows what he is about. By way of showing the view taken in the United States of this Mexican imbroglio, we copy the closing paragraph of along editorial in the same number of the Herald, headed "The Gordian Knot of Napoleon's Destiny:" But whatever cesident of the United States and of his Secretary of State to issue a strong manifesto against any further steps on the part of France to carry out its schemes of Mexican conquest.
