emigrant writes the Kalda Venture, from the comPa-
ny's camp on Fish creek" away West somewhere,
that on the 20th ut the dullness of their tramp was
enliyened with a marriage ceremony. The writer
saws: Now YOU need not stare, yes, a wedding
here beyond where dwellings, laws, or licenses are to
be found or any Of the various 6xens" which such
an occasion generally calls forth in your country The
lucky couple are MIR. Meek, our pilot, and Miss
Shoonover, an emigrant. They had three or four
days acquaintance during which they concluded upon
getting np this novelty. The ceremony was done up
5v a n1eahher who is in company. When the hour
arrived, the trumpet sounded and we all left our
vacations and gathered around the loving ones, IN
front of the camp fire. We were strange looking
notwithstanding around with bats on long boards,
moccasns BELTS pouches. &c, TO witness for the FIRST
time the knot tied in the wilderness. WE'LL soon the
ceremony was over, and each went about his own
business

| HIGHLY IMPORTANT PROM MExIco-Saata
Anna Captured and in Prison. We received
last night by the Government express, slips
from the New Orleans Picayune and Courier,
containing advices from Vera Cruz to the Goth
ult. The report of the capture of Santa Anna
is confirmed. He was taken from prison at
Perote on the goth ult. and marched off, I'M
der strong escort, for the city of Mexico, to
stand his trial before both houses of Congress.
| Previous to his capture he made several at
tacks upon the city of Puebla at the head of
1000 troops, but was repulsed with great loss
of life. Soon afterwards he left the army,
about four leagues below Puebla, with an cs-
cort ofseveral hundred men, and proceeded to-
wards Jalapa. Before arriving at that city he
parted with his escort, and attempted to make
his escape to the mountains on foot and in the
disguise ola friar.
On the 18th of January he was discovered in
tarance (ravine) near little Indian village
called Jito, and some leagues from Jalapa, by a
couple of Indians who were hunting. The
dogs belonging to the Indians became FESTIVE
and furious, the Indians followed the direction
of their barking and found the Dictator, who
offered them his watch and such money as he
had about him if they would guide him to his
hacienda This they refused to do, but gave
| the alarm and he was taken prisoner.
When he was captured he had taken off his
cork leg Oh account of the inflammation produced
by walking upon it, and was carried by his ser
wants.
A proclamation dated January IA, announc-
cd the re-cstablishment Of peace in Mexico
and invited the citizens to return to their homes

ment of lS4l, have been requested to form pare
