Mexico.

ALLEGED ATROCITIES. New York, December 23. The New York American publishes photographs showing how the Mexicans drive children into the sea and shoot them, leaving the tide to carry the bodies off. The paper quotes Mr Russell Milward, an English traveller, in support of its statements that unbelievable barbarities exist in Mexico. BRUSH ON THE BORDER. Mexico City, December 23.

Shots have been exchanged between Mexican and American soldiers on the border. One Mexican soldier, who was a member of a party that had admittedly crossed the line, was killed. When the American sentries called on the Mexicans to halt, the latter opened fire.
