Extract Of letter from DR.. Cherries Doug
las, 10 Il gentleman en- Nashville, dated,
ALvARADo, Feb IL" open my let
ter to give news which is Joyful to me,
because its consequences will be of the
greatest Importance TO our own, as wcl
as this nation. On the first day of this
month, tire besieging army before Vera
Cruz declared IN favor of rational liberty, s.
immediately after came to an understanding
with Santa Anna, ard have joined heart
and hand With his brave little army, de-
termlned to break tie shacklcs of dcspo-
tism, and establish government resting
upon the permanent foundation of cIvII.
LIBERTY Already have the news flown
with the rapidny oflightning, and has been
loyfully received in the CITIES of Cordoya
and OrZaba. We are momemarIy ex-
pectinS important news from the more
interior cities. We have just heard that
the beseging army at the imperial bridge,
have declared, together with the army that
they we're besieging, under the command
of the old patriot chief Gaudaloup Victo-
ria, and have joined the Iiberatng army
who are now marching to Jaloppa, where
they expect to renaain until they hear from
the Emperor at Mexico. We have differ
cH opinions here. Some think the Empe-
ror will make resistance. Others that he
will agree TO every thing proposed by the
| llberating army-and others that he will
abdicate." Nash. Gaz.
