From the Rio Grande.

--The Brownsville Flag, of the 20th ult., says:

‘ Colonel Lucke it has ordered all the cotton warehoused in Brownsville to be stored outside of the city limits, where it can be destroyed without danger to the town, if the gorillas should attempt to land in force on the coast. In accordance, a small mountain of the fleecy product has been built outside the town, and it will make a lively bonfire if the Yankees ever make a start towards it in such strength as to require our troops to fall back.

The Flag says that the stage line to Tampico is in regular operation.

The sledge of Matamoras still continued. Caravajal was reinforced on the 16th. He had made two lead mortars that performed very well.
