The following account of difficulties arising out of the actions of a British ulllcer In Mexico. comes to us by way of San Maurice). No doubt the tale in highly coloured: —

The Ghana-leer" it is said. iviis in a perilous situation all'the court and fired signal guns for assistance. A pilot went out: and relcmd the iliip from her position of danger, but the commander of the steamer refused to pay the pilot for his services and proceeded to hIasatlau. 'l‘hc Collect- or of the part of Mazatlan was notified that one of the cams of the British war steamer was engaged in con- uybig specie on board to ‘avoid export duty. and cans- ed his arrest The ulllccr's person was searched and a

uamity of gold found upon him. The Captain of the

, anticloer came ashore and in a very excited manner declared that Iris vessel and himaelf had been insulted by the indignity offered to his subordinates. High. Word! followed. whieliculuiiuated In the arrth and lean-ll oftha pouch of the llritish Commander. by order oflhe Collector. who asserted his suspicion that the Command- er was also implicated in smuggling rpccia on board of his vessel.

Captain Ilridgc then went on board of the Chanticlur sud untitled the inhabitants of Mazatlan that be war about to bombard that cite for the insult offered to the English flag. The Cuptalu's proclamation of hostillty caused great excitement and numeroal communications in writing passed between Captain Ilridauflcneral' Cur- oaa and the civil autlioritier.-—'I‘ho United States Cas- aul. Mr. Session. acting as msdlator. ultimately ludnc- 5 0d the British Conniauder to modify his proclamation i no as to place the port of Mazatlan under blockade, an ‘ far as Mexican vessels were concerned. until he should receive orders from the British Admiral cmnninudiug on his station. American and other foreign ve'wols would not be interfered with. It iv unsorted that the action of th-ueral Corona and the Mexican authoritch it approved by foreign resident-i genera" .

The II. S. war steamer Samara had loll Acapulco for Mazatlan to protect American interests in that place. The U. S. steamer Baum. was at La Page on the 21st of June.

Additional advices from Mexico state that Command- erllridge at first demanded that the oflioer who seal-cl» ed the person of his subordinate and seized the money should be rent on board the Chanticleer. to be dealt with an tho Commander saw fit. General Corona re- [died that cooner than nubmit to such an outrage he

in indignant language that if he llllll reclamation to make he should make it in the manner customary with. civilized nations through that proper channel.
