It is to lie hoped the .South will have self respect
enough to denounce and put down, as far as its voice
will do it, this ranting, hypocritical sympathy for icd

“NEW ORLEANS, June 21.1836.
“The people here arc a9 much interested with
the warlike movements around them as you can
be in Mucon ; with this difference, that the hoot
of the sun is here more intense, which creates a
greater excitability. The soul of almost ail New
Orleans is wrapt up iu the Texian struggle, eith
er for or agaiust, and every rumor from that quar
ter is anxiously sought fprand indusjriously circu
lated. The Mexicans have many friend? here,
many larga •otnmer'cial houses ju tboir interest,
though an overcvhelmtiing majority of the citi
zens are enthusiastic lu behalf of Toxiau liberty.
By arrivals of yesterday and tho day before,
news comes that the Mexicans still hug the hope
of retaining their sway over Texas, notwithstan
ding the capture of Santa Autia, whose place
they have supplied with Gon. Urrea, to whom
they have given the command of the .Mexican
forces; and it is further stated that 4 or 500
troops hy water, and 15000 by land, are now on
their way to Texas, intending to liberate the im
prisoned Chief and settle the destinies of that
country. We havo no'recent news from Texas,,
but thoagency here has announced that no inoro
volunteers are now wanted; but cultivators jyill
be provided for as provisions are getting scarce,
and they need those who will turn their attention-
to husbandrv. Letteis received from Tampico
