Cutter, we learn tnat IIesiueut JOuts, udo
issued proclamation anaulling the recog-
nit;on Of Gen. DUFF GHen as American
Consul at. Galveston. The President, we
understand, states, that the honor and in
terests of the nation imperalively deman-
ded such a course.
The cause Of the flare up between Pres
dent Jones and Gen. Duff Green. we u'n-
derstand 10 have originated in a most in
solent attempt on the part of Green to die
tate to the President. The latter gently
insiuualcd that when he desired, Gen G's.
advice ne would solicit it.. This answer
it seems raised Green's dander. whereupon
it is said ne had the indelicacy Eand want
of good sense 10 threaten the Executive,
and iu,ima,ed that he would make the Ex-
ecutive Office very uhpleasaht resting
place for his Excelleney the President.
Such conduct could lead to but one re.
suit. The President very properly orde-
red Green from presence, and cut short
his official functions.

In The city of Vera Cruz, from which we
have most copious intelligence, the opinion
is unanimous that the downfall of Santa
Anna is beyond questions; but by the cili-
zens of that town it would seem that ne is
hated more cordially than in any part Of
the counlry.
