(From the New Orleans Bulletin, April 9.)
The news from the city of Mexico is to the 21st of March. It is of no importance. The only thing of interest is the arrival at the city of Mexico of a messenger from his excellency the general in chief of the Spanish naval forces in the Antilles, to reclaim and desire of the Dominican republic that the Spanish be respected, and also exempted from the blockade which had been, it was said, proclaimed by the Dominican government. In reply, the U. S. consul returned for answer, that no blockade whatever had been decreed by the Dominican government, as was supposed by the Spanish commander, and their excellencies the captain general of the Havana and the general in chief of the naval forces, were in error. The Dominican government, on the contrary, had opened all the ports of the republic to the commerce of all nations, and that the Spanish flag would be respected and protected as well as that of any other nation.
