GOMEZ, The Mezicen RobSr.-This
famous robber with four hundred asso-
ciates, inhabited the extensive forest OF
Pinal in Mexico,and committed the most
atrocious murders and was guilty Of the
most diabolical crueltiee. No traveller
was safe, high or low, rich or poor, and
the name Of Gomez spread terror in every
direction. His power was 50 great that
government was intimidated and unable
to rout his strong holds.
The following is an instance Of the re
finement and cold blooded barbarity with
which he inflicted death. A poor fellow
travelling near st. Martins, overlook
man on the road and entered into cehver-
sation with him, in the course of which
he observed that he hoped he might never
tall into the hands Of Gomez. "Why noty"
asked his companion. "Because," con-
tinued the traveller, che il not only par
'tlal to robbing his victim, but he delights
in the shedding Of blood, aud in the exer-
else Of cruelty"
"And who told you that?'' said his fell
low pedestrian, 'scommon report" said
the traveller, s<and know for certain that
he murders every man he captures, and
washes his hands in the blood
''lndeed," said the other, snow you
shall be convinced to the contrary, for
here, said he, pointing to path in the
wood, sis the way to the abode of Gomez,
and | will take the liberty to introduce
you to him." In vain the traveller ex-
pressed his detestation Of all new acquain-
|tances, and urged the importance Of his
business, he was forcibly conducted to
the ground and then had the inexpressiblc
horror Of finding the robber to be his com
|panion.
"Here," said Gomez to some Of his
fgang, s'bring that large chest here" 1t
was brought. ''Now get in here, - he con-
tinued to the Trembling traveller, which
being complied with, the lid was fastened
down, when Gomez said to him, sNow
Senior, you shall know how false common
report is. You shall die, but your blood
shall not be split, neither shall eloat
over thee or wash my hands in the streams
of thy life-now starve, sufiocate and
die"

insurgents were forced by the Presi-
dent. Santa Anna, at the mead OF 4 lew
troops, towards Guernavaca. at which
place Duran had already been, but
lind,ng the people there not disposed
10 give encouragement to his designs,

It appears, upon further inspection

to force Santa Anna to declare himself

their designs; TO effect which they
