communications Tor that Of Mexico
He left the city Of Mexico on the Both
OF July last, a; which time all was
tranquil throughout the interior as far
as publicly known. SANTA ANNA was
quietly residing at his plantation, Man
ga de Clavo. near Vera Cruz. The
rumor respecting the despatch Of troops
TO aPprehend him is consequently un-
founded.
Mr.. Greenhow relates that when
about TO leave Jslapa, at 3 O'Clock on
the morning Of the I'd instant, q violent
earthquake occurred. which, on bis ar
rival at Vera Cruz, he learned had
caused much damage to the city, and
produced the utmost eonsternaiion
among its inhabitants. many Of whom
took refuge on board OF the shipping in
the harbor. The shock was felt on
board Of the Vandalis. abou, which it
oceasioned much agitation OF the ~s-
Ter. aud shook the chain cables. The
Vandslia remained for twenty-one
days at anchor in the narrow pass be-
tween the island Of Saeri6cios and the
main lsnd-snd her crew enjoyed bet.
ter health in that situation, than at
any other period Of the cruise, although
the yellow fever was raging in the city.
II is added that there is no prospect
Of an invasion Of TexSS.-BGH. finer.
