Lons, July 24.—Tho followinf 3'U' tereHtlng facts of tho situation in Northern Mexico come .from tlio New Laredo ci r- respondeut of the Globe-Democrat, and give a more connected statement of affairs than has been already published: It is stated on good authority that tho city Tiuncs, of about 10,000 inhabitants, has prononneed against the Federal guv. eminent. As this city is in the interior and some 200 miles from tho border, it is evident that tho feeltog of rebellion and discontent is rapid ly permealtog the whole of northern Mexico. The aitnation in Tcmaulipaa is identical wilh that of Neuvo Leon last September Genarul Cnelar, governor of the State, has suited end received permission to absent himself from tbe capital, and his where abouts aro not known at present. It is said by some that be is in tbe City of Mexioo, and bis return is looked for in the course of two weeks. It will ho remembered that Garino, gov ernor of Nuevo Leon, was ordered to the City of Mexico before the uprising ia that State liiet wutler. and as * n<n as tl.c Secre tary of State of S'iDulpA took the gain rna- tonal chair, the discoLteiits receive 1 their cue fmm the gnVirument, and retailed. Now in Titniaulipia the chief justice of'be Stale is scling aa guv rnor, uud nil the towns of note are pronouncing against tlio federal government, which, however, hos mmo to contciid with in this Slate than in any other the birder. Their appointment >f Cuellar, as chief of the io ilh unlit, ry division, comprising the state of Turnuu- iipas, is meeting with opposition from the present commander. General Gomez and Colonel Villairenl, it is said, will join tbe insurgent troops befiue they will allow themselves to be deposed. Tbe uprising cf Angus Lslyunnhss given thb federal government soma uneasiness, nnd they have ordered General Nor- ijo of Nuevo Luon, to report the City of Mexioo, wbich command he has not seen fit to comply with, and he couaiders such a move would bo detrimen tal to bis freedom, and perhaps his health. Tbe movement to depoae the civil gov ernment of Tainaulipas waa the first re ceived by the federal governor. The urn dcrstnuiling bttwren Governor Cuellar ami (La officials at the City of Mexico pro vided fur the appointing ot the Governor to a high military position and provisions were made for any trouble in Nuevo I.eon, hut now, wilh a good sized rebel iou of hot' States and much discontent among the ted- era! troops on the border, tbe trouble is as- snmlng a mixed compltxton. It ia reported that on the first of Angnst all important cities in the statsa of Tamauiipas and Nuoto Leon will prononnee.
