Tho New York Herald has received let
ter from Merida, Yucatan, which contains
the following important news
The province of Yucn,an has absolutely
declared It's Independence of Mexico, and is
now a seperate Republic.
1t will be recollectcd that we mentioned,
few days ago, the probability of such an
event, and that two assemblies, composed OF
the most distinguished of the Yucatecoes,
had met in reference to this matter, with the
intention ofseeking assistance from the Uni
ted States.

Of Yucatan.

best in the whole Republic of Mexico. lis

ent, the rest of Mexico cannot re-take them

The feeling against Mexico and the state of things
in Mexico has been, for long time silently running
