LATER EROM MEXICO

BY the arrival last evening oflhe
steam ship Ncw- York, Capt. J. T.
Wright, 42 hours from Galveston, we are
in possession Of later intelligence from
Mexico. The progress Of the revolution
seems to be onward, and The star Of Santa
Anna appears TO pail before bis victorious
foes.
We copy the following interesting par.
ticulars from the Galveston Ncrs, of the
7th Instant - 20.

From the latest official news at Mata-
moras. from the inferior of Mexico, il
appears that Gen. Paredas al the head Of
5000 men, marched against Santa Anna,
who a, that lime had under his command
$4,000 troops. On the approach of Pare.
das, Santa Anna Immediately retired, great
numbers. OF his soldiers deserving his cause.
This retreat extended to the city of Pue.
bla, where he was attacked by Paredas
and defeated.
Gen. Santa Anna, who made his es-
cape. was compelled to disguise himself
and take conveyance in common coach
of the country. The particulars Of this
battle are not given but we presume the
victory was achieved by Gen. Paredas at
great expense of life, as is usually the
case in Mexican warfare.
In northern Mexico the revolution has
been general ttroushout the country. Al
the las, accounts, Gen. Canales in conjuc-
with Gen. Arista, were marching at the
heaA of large force against Gen Woll,
who still held out in the city Of Matamoras
on the 18th uI.. On the reception of the
news in Matauaoras, of the success Of The
Federal party, the citizens opposed TO
Cenlralism and in favor of Federalism,

prosperity, if Texas should be suffered to re.

market at such odds. Tae consequences would
be that the South must either join the West,
or else like the Israelites of old, they and their
men servants and maid servants must leave
the house of their ancestors and wander 10

gument in favor of annexation, MIR. II. took
up the Slavery argument. He drew with. fer
