from an Havana paper of the l4lb ult. (Sun-

Capstin Dan John B. Nunez, oil the Spa
nsh schr. Rosita, which anchored this morn
ing 10 IA days from Tampico. states. that
the government established in that port is
the constitutional one, under the name of
Independent, without any particular atera-
ton; tina, al the time o. his departure, it was
said that division of lturbide was beaten
by that of Senior NoveIls, near Mexico; and
that the day beiure yesterday, at day break
at short distance between the Marie and

Through channels, which, however, are
not to be relied upon, we are informed, that
ON the 9th current, an action was fought IN
the vicinity OF Mexico, be tween the troops
of that city and the Insurgents, and that the
latter los, three cannon and nun Der Of men
and that in consequence, the enemy asked
for truce on the 9Th, and that on the 7th
an armistice for six days was signed by the
chiefs Novella and lturbide, for the purpose
of realizing the interview whi-h the senior
O'Donoju had requested with the senior
NoveIla; for which purpose the former sat
out on the 9Th Tor the neighborhcod OF Mex
leo, where it was to take place. But some
say. O'Dcnoiu has not been recognized
either as Viceroy or captain general OF the
kingdom, by the authorities Of Mexico. and
that in consequence hostilties have broke
out sfresh. Othsrsay that the armistiee has
been prolonged for four months, and that
lturbde and NoveIa have fallen into dis
puies. since he was acknowledged by the
first as viceroy and captain general OF the
kingdom which had been previously refused
But nothing is positively known, on which
account every body here is in the greatest
CONSERVATION, without knowing what Is to be
our lot in regard to The determination OF our
governor to defend the place as long 4; he
can, ana then retire to The castle OF ST. John
de illus, and there await the orders OF the
court; altho' al present there is no fear that
the enemy's troops can come down, because
;hsy are all occupied in the siege Of MexI-
