lac New Orleans Bee Of the Gath alt.
gives copious extracts from . Gle Of the
CosmoPolita, liberal journal OF Mex
eco, on the subject Of the affair at Eta
OF assassioations in Osjacs. in order to
better enable as TO appreciate the true
condition Of that country under its
present state Of revolutionary excite.
inent.
The execution Of Aieevedo and
Others at Ella by the eonmandant of
the Government troops Canalizo, is de-
nounced a repetition of the bloody
scenes Of the despotic reign Of Busts-
mente. These excuses are compare d
TO the conduct Of Danton and Robes
pierre. but the day Of retribution as
then Is prayed for. in the recurrence
OF another 18th BIumsire. which shall
put an end to the reign Of terror.
The Cosmopolita AYERS that such is
the distracted state Of The Government
that IL cannot procure money for a
single campaign. That the same fate
awaits the present system Of centrslism
and consolidation a. that which over.
whelmed Bustamente. There are nei.
ther statesmen nor warriors; even the
army was better of under the tyrant
Bustamente.
I'm place Of those veterans, those
financial resources which the govern

poverished treasury and recruits enroll.

vernment has to sustain it. The gen.
ersi distress has compelled the govern.
meni to increase its circulation of cop.

credit that it is proposed TO substitute
paper money in Its place.
But more than all. the signal Of ex-
termination which has been declared.
will arouse the fury Of the people aud

The ministry can no longer. as former

Of so dark hue
The sad results Of the murders com.
united in Tampico and the colony Of
Texas have been severely felt: bu,
NOW outstanding the lessons of expert.
ence We have been taught, the same
horrible system is not the less pursued.
The example Of Santa Anna, his de-
feat before San Jacinto, his imprison-
ment, and even the death he so richly
Eents, Is not ali that sufficient Grani
courier Of the future TO warn those
who follow the same degree Of crime.
AL this is the result of the most per-
verse obstinacy, and of the bad exam
pies OF cruelty given by Santa Anna
at Zaeetecas, Freuislo, and more re-
Gently at the Alama.
The following items show that the
march ofihe revolution is still onward.
and that the greatest discomfort pre-.
walls.
Congress, on account Of the penury
OF the public treasury. speak Of new
contributions. Is there a representa-
tive or a senator, il asked, who can
tell what has been discussed for the
war in Texas; Is there that individual
living who can make a recapitula,ion
OF the sums spent, sol desant, for secret
expenses.
Mr.. Fonssca, who has pronounced
IN the city Of Foloca for federalism, is
augmentng his followers, and seems
disposed to march upon Michoacan.
A. Teutilillan and Gen. Gomez have
pronounced in favor Of federation.
'On the 18th, at 7 o'clock in the
morning, an extraordinary courier ar
rived at Gradelaria from Calunia, bring.
ing intelligence that in the latter city
rising had taken place in favor of fed
ersliSm.
They write from San Louis :-"Ev.
cry day We have the arrivals Of the un-
fortunate officers and soldiers from Mat
amoras, the army having been entirely
disbanded. The War Department of the
Republic will shortly present in the
most imposing manner q loss Of its

AT Cohuli, Tamaupilas and San Lou
