The new constitution was sworn in at the city Of

in all the departments within few days thereafter
The l3th chosen for the ceremony At the cap'ai
it is the birthday Of Santa Anna, and II was per-
formed with all possible solemnity. Our advices, as
usual, represent the country in the most iamen'a
BILE and precarious position Universal discomfort
prevails save with the immediate personal friends
and adherents Of Santa Anna. The best advised as
sure us that revolution may surely be expected and
that the flames will burst out when we least ex-
pect it.
1t was confidently hoped and believed that the poor
Texan prisoners would have been released from
their captivity the 18th ut but the Dictator did
not choose to mark the day with any such act Of
cemency. He set at liberty some distinguished cit-
of Mexico confined for political offences among
others, Pedraza, Otero, Lafragua, and Riva-Paacio
The inaugural address of Santa Anna to the Lee
gisative Junta isl moderate in tone, affects great
horror at the concentration of the supreme power In
the hands of single citizen, and promises very Patr-
ocay to look after the safety Of the State Sc, &C.
