LATEST FROM MEXICO.

We published accounts on Saturday night from Com-
modore Conner, down to the 30th July, from Vera
Cruz ; and in last evening's Union we furnished ex-
tracts from New Orleans papers, with accounts from
the city of Mexico to the 29th, and from Vera Cruz to
the 31st (received via Havannah). We are now
obligingly furnished with translations of Mexican papers
subsequently received at the Navy Department, with
dates from Vera Cruz to the 6th of August. We un-
derstand that the following are the most material articles
which these papers contain. If these accounts may be
relied on, the revolution is advancing with rapid strides
to place Santa Anna once more at the head of the re-
public :

:Translated from .11 Indicador of Vera Cruz of August

6th, 1846.) _
CITY OF MEXICO, AUG. 4, 1846.

LIBERATING REPUBLICAN ARMY.

In the morning of this day almost the whole of the
garrison of this capital, who are at this moment under
the orders of the undersigned and of General D. Juan
Morales, occupying the citadel, declared against the go-
vernment, and will soon be in possession of the whole
city, as the troops who remain under the orders of Ge-
nerals Bravo and Paredes are insignificant, and are ex-
tremely disaffected, and almost in union with us ; for it
cannot long be concealed from any good Mexican that
the holy cause which we defend is the cause of the people
and of national independence.
In the name of these, then, we invite your Excellency
—and rely confidently on your sincere patriotism—im.
mediately to second an enterprise so noble, and give thus
a day of glory to the country to which you have ren-
dered so many services. It is, beyond all doubt, certain
that the cause which we defend will speedily triumph,
not only because the Government (so called) may be
said to be already overthrown, but because the whole
nation is in commotion, and resolved to vanquish those
who wish to sacrifice it. The triumphs obtained by our
arms in Guadalaxara, and the pronunciamento of the
whole department of Vera Cruz, attest this truth ; and
for the complete information of your Excellency, it only
remains for me to state to you that the valiant Generals
Lander() and Perez declared themselves in the city of Vera
Cruz on the 31st ultimo, inviting, through a commission,
the illustrious General Santa Anna to come and place
himself immediately at the head of the army sustaining
the national independence and liberties, in conformity
with the plan which we have proclaimed, and of which
I herewith transmit copies to your Excellency.
The enthusiasm among the united people and army
cannot be greater ; chiefs, officers, and men •f all
classes of society are presenting themselves to us by
hundreds.

We congratulate ourselves in the name of the nation,
which will soon be able to show its gratitude to its
worthy servants.
God and Liberty.

J. MARIANO DE SALAS,
VALENTIN GOMES FARIAS.
To his Excellency the Commandant-General of the de-
partment of Vera Cruz.
Editorial remarks of the Indicador on the foregoing.
According to the documents which we insert with the
greatest satisfaction, the pronunciamento took place in
the capital of the Republic on the 4th instant, as was
agreed upon by those patriots who had on the preceding
day received intelligence of the declaration of the gar-
rison here.

On the departure of the express which brought this
intelligence, so gratifying, very few troops remained
with Generals Bravo and Paredes, and those were
already in agreement with their companions, who, under
General Salis y Morales, occupied the citadel and part of
the city, which they would soon occupy entirely.
Vera-Cruzans ! The cry of union and of liberty,
sent forth from this city—its cradle—travels with the
velocity of lightning. The people and the army united
are reconquering the usurped rights of the country ;
they have no other object than the public good. " Long
live the Republic I—the union I—the tutelar genius
who, though out of the country, and in exile, is able
to promote its felicity, and smooth the obstacles in its
way.— Union.
The following is an extract from a letter dated

" Vera Cruz, Aug. 1, 1846.
" Two commissioners, one in the name of the people
and the other in that of the garrison of our place, em-
bark on board of the packet, and will invite General
Santa Anna to come once more among his fellow-citizens,
and save them in the supreme hour of danger. Little
apprehension is entertained that he will decline the offer.
His return to power will, we hope, put an end to the
pending difficulties.
" Paredes is to leave positively this time to-morrow
for the frontiers; but should the news of the movement
here find him in Mexico, he will beyond doubt defer his
departure for awhile, and spare no efforts to keep in
power. His day is over to all intents and purposes.
The Ministry, according to letters of the 30th ult., per
express, has undergone a thorough and complete change.
Immediately after being sworn in as President, ad in-
terim, General Bravo sent tho members of the then
existing cabinet about their business, and formed his
council without loss of time. His Ministers will be for
peace with the United States. The two principal posts
are to be filled by A. Gantry-, in the finance, and
Cuevas in the foreign relations. It is anticipated that
the blockade will be raised, from the mere fact of the
city having pronounced for Santa Anna; but I do not
believe it for a moment.
" Taylor's vanguard is at Monterey. I hear from
good authority, that some 15,000 men will encamp be-
fore San Luis Potosi, in all this month."—Boston Ad-
verttzer.

BALIZE, N. E. PASS, AUGUST 10, IB46.—The United
States revenue cutters Ewing, Van Buren, Legare and
Forward, sailed this day for Brazos Santiago. The
Ewing has on board Captain John A. Webster, who has
been placed in command of the revenue marine forces
cruising in the Gulf of Mexico. This fleet, it is pre-
sumed, will cruise along the coast as far as Vera Cruz,
Cur the protection of our seamen.—New Orleans Picayune.
MATAMORAS, AUGUST 5, 1846. Colonel Hays's
Texas regiment of mounted men cannot leave before to-
morrow or the day after, but by the latter time the regi-
ment will move. It does not proceed, as I understood
it would, direct from Camargo, but will go towards
Tampico into the interior, and join the army in a few
weeks at Camargo. It is the settled opinion of all here
that Hays will meet a strong force of Mexicans on his
route and of course have a fight. General Taylor, it
seems, intends giving the Rangers a chance "on their
own hook" to get into a " scrape" and then get out of it
as best they may. The regiment, I learn, is about 700
strong.
Our attention was attracted the other day by seeing
a Mexican pass our office with a lasso around his neck
and fastened to the horn of an American's saddle. We
followed to the guard-house and there learned that the
Mexican was the one who had killed a volunteer in the
market a short time since. He is said also to have corn_
