For. he " o Pitaguae, Dee 10.
We received yesterday papers from the
city OF Mexico 90 the l7th OF November
folly tao weeks later than our preMou, ad
wees from the capital
Ono OF the frs, things We notice IN the
papers is correspondence between Gen.
ray or aud Santa Anna IN relation to the
termination of the armisfice. Oot Of this
correspondence proceeded the release OF
seven American prisoners, who were with
the Mexican army al San LUIS. This cor
rcspondence is interesting and important,
Attention IS very much cngrossed by the
preparations for The meeting OF the Con
gfcss, which has ere this assembled ~ the
capital, About forty deputies were IN the
city on the l7th ulumo, aud We note a re.
quest from the Secretary Of State That they
should enrol their names, &c, tina, they
might be summoned for the preparatory
meetings so soon as a quorum should be pre-
sent.
4 The papers are filed with amendments
to tho constitution OF 1924, proposed by the
different States; aud these subjects form
prominent tones Of discussion for the press.
I The Official journal says the Executive Is
anxiuus Tor the assembling of Congress, O.
ven before the day fixed By law, IN conse.
quence Of The urgent nature OF the subjects
10 be brought before Il. As first 10 impoT
lance are enumerated g. the events of the
var with tho United States Of the North ;
the necessity Of gtea, resources to sustain
'il and to some other points rGtdfire 10 ms
iuDlrtdat business" This IS The nearest
nllus,on which we see TO the offers OF our
Government to negotiate for peace. la the
same Diario del Gobierno in which We see
this, is inserted the article from the Vera
Cruz Indicator which mentioned the re-
ceipt OF dispatches from our Government
early in November. The Indicators az
ItlcIe ia copied without comment, from winch
!, may be presumed that such dispatches
,rere received.
We find in tho Mexican papers oltioial
r communications from the authorities OF the
d,lTafen, States, assuring the Government
that the d,ssensions md threats oil dsseh'
sions which appeared in the capital IN We
,ober last have not awaited to disturb IRAN
guilty 10 the States. .
We see no indications that Gen. Almonse

of orders emana,ing from HIM, all lnd'ca'
, ing the ulmos, activity IN the discharge o
| the duties OF his office.
