The New REVOLUTION in MExico.-l'ho
following particulars Of the progress of the
late Revolution, or attempt at revolotion-ihe
event of it not being yet known--is from lla-
vana papers received by way ofNew Orleans.
The Vera Cruz Censor, of the 9th October
SAYS the mail had arrived from the capital with
intelligence to the ID, which il gives as fol-
lows:
August 3l.-About 5 o'clock this evening,
Gen. Valencia declared in the capital for the
Constitution Of 1924. His force consisted Of
The ll.h Regiment Of Infantry, the companies
of Pueba, the squandron OF the district, and
others. The alarm spread throughout the
whole city in moment, aud all the ediilceS
which commanded the citadel were Immediate
" occupied by the insurgents. The Govern
ment fortified itself in San Augustine, in the
palace, aud at other points. About halt past
five in the evening, Bustamen,e, with a column
of $50 infantry, two pounders and l60 hors-
es marched to the AcCfdada, and ordered the
insurgents to dlsperse. The President occu-
pied several other points, but no hostile demon
siraton was made by either party, ana II was
understood that Gen. Valencia gave notice that
he would make no attack, but merely defend
his position until the arrlva! OF Gen. Santa
Anna Government patrols preserve order
throughout The city.
September 1.-The insurgents have not
Welded an inch. Bustamen,e retired about l
last night, to his palace OF ST. Augustine A
lille after this hour, all the students OF the
Military Academy marched and united them
selves with Valencia, and with them such
numbers of officers aud men OF different corps
as TO form full battalion. The force OF the
insurgents is now more than 900 men, with
Is pieces of cannon. oil all cailber. No loaters
have been received among them, and order
| reiyus among them. The GOVERNMENT has at
the utmost, not over 900 men, iitlle artillery,
but principally cavalry il has to guard many
different points, while the insurgents are con
centraied In the citadel, and are strongly torl-
! fed. Up TO this time the communication OF
the ci,lzehs with the insurgents remains tree.
| Indeed, BON parties are looking for the stand
| that may be taken by Pueba. The Govern
ment have ordered Tonejon to march In his
troops, but the general opinion IS, that they
can obtain no succor from without, on account
OF the great popularity OF the movement OF "a
reds at Vaiisco. To-day they have succeeded
in obtaining a secret session OF Congress, but
it is rulnored that it has denied the eXtraordIna-
rv powers asked by Bustamente. Much Is
said Of his resignation, but nothing certain Is
| known.
Sept 2-The secret session lasted till half
past 10 last night, and it now said that body
mas voted to the President all the powers
| which he asked. At late hour, the guard OF
| St. Augustine went over TO the citadel, huZza-
ing for Santa Anna. At ) O'Clock hnne
commenced in the direction Of Mocuas and the
citadel, which lasted more than an hour.
The Censor considers the revolution, this
time sure Of succeeding. Buslameute can gel
no accession to his force, while the People are
docking to the revolutionary standard from all
directions.
