Merida TO the l4Ih of September. Yucatan has at
last thrown of its anomalous disguise, and taken its
place a department of Mexico, partic patIhg, an

eminent A letter in the Havana Dlario confirms
the previous report that the people Of the peninsula
hat eoncurred in the movement IN favor of Santa
Anna. The legislative assembly Of YueaIan, on the
18th August, sanctioned the "Pan Of Guadals ara''
adopted IN May last, and also the proclamation OF
Santa Anna, recognising him as the chief person in
the nation. These acts Of the Yucatan Congress
were received and published with various demon
STATIONS OF rejoicing all the cities Of the penin-
sula except at Campeachy, where, for some local
cause, the authorities had delayed the publication,
and much unwingness had been manifested to
adopt them.
AS soon as this delay and hesitation were known,
however, at Merida, the governor Of the department
Senior Barbachano, issued peremptory orders to the
funetionaTes at Campeachy directing the acts 10 be
proclaimed within twenty-tour hours, and declaring
every officer who was opposed TO the measures, TO
be Invested Of authority. At the same time the milf
tary commandant Of the province was directed To
put himself in readiness TO march directly on Cam
peachy with all his forces, as soon as il was known
that the orders Of the governor were dsregarded.
The result was, that the authorities of Campeachy

were proclaimed within the limitation prescribed by
the governor; but the principal officer OF the city

these statements, is evidently written by warm par

His excelency Sehor ID. lgnscio Basadre, who
assisted Governor Barbachano in bringing about the
revolution, arrived at Havana on the 25th uimo on
his way to Mexico.
Since the above was written, we have received
CamPeachy papers to the 9th August. lntelli-
genee OF Santa Annals arrival at Vera Cruz
and Of the declaration of the people Of the
chief provinces in his favor had been re-
ceived, and the papers, seemingly under the
impression that a proposition for the reunion oil
Yucatan TO the republic would be made, were dis

insists that there should be no reunion until ample
security was given that the supuIatons of the con

agreements between the central government and the
peninsula, would be respected.
These were the views, probably, entertained by
the citizens of Campeachy, which caused them TO
