We are very much disposed to believe that Santa
Anna has proposed the negotiations merely to gail
time and accomplish some other purpose than
peaceable termination of his present difficulties
II is not, indeed, to be supposed that such an
scrupulous leader would negotiate if he had the
means Of compelling his antagonist to submit, and
his conduct ls, therefore, indicative OF weakness,
but we have no doubt that his chief purpose is to
gain time in order to recruit his forces, and to
make arrangements for striking blow tina, may
yet give him complete ascendancy in the govern
ment Of Mexico.

usual interest, and was attended by We ry anu

remarks. which were brlef aud unostentatious, tbs
he entirely secuted the idea of mystery in magnet

and humbugs, and that all the phenomena Of mes
merism were natural, and strictly in accordance
with natural and ascertained laws.
II was then proposed to appoint a committee to
superintcnd the experiments, when bluff, sturdy
locking young man, from the country, rose and re-
quested to be experlmented upon before the
audience.
