with it. 1t is we'll known TO our read
ers that antecedent to that time, an er-
fort had been made to embarrass the
Society by throwing few bombs into

and that contrary to all calculation, they
had the effect of driving one detach-
ment into terms of amnesty, and per
haps an alliance with the enemy. b ul
whether q portion Of that atfrighted
detachment were induced to rally a.

Vera Cruz was said TO be very healthy.
They were landing shot and shells from

There were two French, one English,
