lean news, in addition TO those received yes

The Vera Cruz papers which we have re-
ceiyed do not contain much news, but the
''Faro" OF Havana having full files to the 3lst
July, makes coplous extracts, and we trans
late such as we find Of interest.
The news generally is considered very I'M
satisfactory, the country being threatened with
the horrors Of civil war. Ell Indicator of the
3lst says that large number of the popuiace
had given in their adherence to the plan of
Guadalajara, with some additions. Generals
LANpERo and PEREZ Were at the head Of the
pronunciomento. The portrait of Gen. SANTA
ANNA was carried through the principal streets
with the greatest enthusiasm, and the garrison
OF st. Juan d'Ulloa had given IN their adhe-
renee TO the pronunclamento.
Ell Diarlo-the official paper OF the Govern
ment-speaks in grandiloquent terms of the
abundant resources Of Mexico-of the patriot
ism Of her citizens-of her ability by recourse
alone TO her internal resources TO maintain the
war, even though it should continue for five
years-and adds. that the military chest has
| received large additions by subscription and
otherwise; that provision had been made for
the subsistence Of the men, and it was calcula
ted that the force of tenShousand men would
soon assemble at San Luis.
On the 18th, brigade of troops under the
command of Gen. CoNpE, left the city of Mex

of the Presidency on the 2Sth. and on Sunday,
the 30th, Paroles was to leave for the seat Of
war. On the goth pronunciamento was is
sued in the city OF Coatepec, Qn Jalapa,) but
the Republican, declares its inability to state its
objects or its pretennons. Several of the mer-
camille houses had protested before the SUI
preme Court of Justice against the act of Sr.
lTuRnIDE with respect to the national debt, al
luding we presume to his disposition of the
custom duties.
Col. ANTONIO MARgINEZ had got up
counter revolution in Topic, in favor of restor-
ing affairs TO their former state and recognising

SoAzA, first Judge of Acapulco, had been con-
demned to be deprived Of Office for being en-
gagged IN smuggling tobacco. The garrison

we find any mention of the vomito SAID 10 be
raging in the Castle at Vera Cruz; and the
only notice of the Castle is, that newly in
vented telegraph had been placed on 1t.
