"NAyr.YAsD, Pensacola, Jan. 81, 1886.
"'The Somers arrived from Vera Cruz to-day. She
brings dates from Vera Cruz Of the 10Th January,
and as laie as the 18th from the city OF Mexico.
Lieut.. White Of the Somers was bearer of despatch
Is 10 our minister la Mexico, and lef tho capital la
company with Mr.. Slidell on the ITth Of January.
MIR. Slidel will remain al Jalapa few weeks before
proceeding TO Vera Cruz. The dilaloriness OF the
Mexican government in furnishing our minister
with an sscon, which was demanded at least a fort
night before finally granted, and the lame pre-
tenees under which Il was delayed OF refused from
time 20 time, have been thought 10 Indicate dispo-
silion 10 detain minister In the country 10 the
last possible moment in hopes that the sentiment OF
the people might finally take Turn favorable 10 ne
gotation.
at is certainly very singular that a military gov
ernmen with force in the capital sufficient TO over
awe all the neighboring departments, should plead
inablity 10 supply an Escort Of eight men to sxPe-
dils the departure Of foreign minister, the question
of whose reception had been the cause Of the reyo-
luton, and thus delay In the capital functonsry
whose very presence, one Of the principal agents
in the revolution had few days before declared 10
lie an insult 10 free and brave people. IL has been
suggested that the government We're waiting for
Presidem Folks message before they allowed the
minister TO leave.
I.The message was conveyed To Mexico by Mr.
White about the l2lh Of January, and was immedi-
,'siv ,ransIa,sd into the principal journals without
comment OF any kind. The message appears to
have given great satisfaction all the American res
idenls. 49,.
UInforma,ion was received by private advices from
Mexico, the day after Mr.. White LETT, that General
Ari,ta had arrived at San Luis Potosi and declared
In favor o the former order Of things, and invited all
20 Join him in putting down the reyoluuonists and
tho.s Who would destroy the peace OF the country.
IL was added that Arista had taken lamPeo, sna
levied an additional duty Of 81 cents TO support has
troop. This intelligsn IL without doubt sulhen-
tic. Gen Arsta disadeciion towards Paroles Was
very clearly Indicated in his Official letters OF the
9th of December, which you have without doubt
seen, as they were published on the sth January IN
Mexico. Since then, various ohieial declarations
from the northern departments have been published,
indicating determined oPPoston 10 the reVoIuuon-
airy movements Of Paroles. - .
,'You have probably heard that Yucstan has de-
ciared its independence, and adopted flag with
central blue stripe, containing FIVE stars.
"The Santa Ana party Is growing stronger every
day in Vera Cruz. II is confidently asserted that II
he were to make his appearance at any time, he
would be supported by an immediate pronuneiamsn-
TO- IL is thought that the revolutionary government
viii not, therefore, venture TO weaken their force
on the seaboard by sending any military or naval
detachment against the rebellious fucatanos.
Information has been received from nine depart
rnents, whose garrisons and military posts have de-
clared in favor of General Paredss, VIZ: San Luis
Potosi, Mexico, Vera Cruz, Guanajuato, Oaxaca,
Jalisco, Queretaro, Michoacan, and Puebla. The
popular authorities at San Luis agreed to the plan
ID l., her fhSu
have expressed any opinion, believe they have
opposed him by a passive declaration or protests.
The revolutionists had nowhere met with any
armed resistance; and the boast Of Paroles, 10 his
inaugural address 10 the republic, was fully sup
ported that his enterprise had cost the nation
a drop Of blood nor angle sigh.' No sure augu-
ry ofthe stability Of the present government can be
drawn from these circumstances. The revolution
appears to have taken the nation by surprise. Her
rera's government collapsed without struggle, and
almost without groan. No leading MILITARY chief
appeared in opposilon TO Paredes and occupying
the field alone, he proceeded to orgnniz. the reyo-
I,.,'ou~.y ;---s,"'nsut without any sort oil resist
ance to his dictaion. As the constitutional gov
ernment had ceased to exist--and the dictatorship
OF Paroles was the only declared suthority-as
there opponent around whom the friends Of
Jaw and order could raly-the only course left was
an early support Of the plan Of Paredes IL remains
10 be seen what will be the result of Arisias oppos-
ton, supported by the northern departments and a
the plan Of Paroles has apparently been received in
the departments which have pronounced in his fa-
vor, viii probably prove delnslve. The popular
authorities will have time TO rally and organize
something like decided resistance to the Dictator
ship. ..- .... 81. .... - ..
If Arista cannot arrest the course of the revolu-
ton and establish the constitutional government he
at least maintain the Independence Of the north
ern provinces.
with Arista on the north and Yucatan on the
= r., A...f-
fected and Vera Cruz unstable in its adherence 10
the plan of San Luis Potosi--it does not seem
possible that the revolutionary power should be
permanent. / have heard opinion thrown out
that Paroles would remain in power about four
months. | know not why this express term should
he SET unless it be the shortest time in which the
MGxicans can accomplish anything. Four months
ago Herrera was elected by 10 of 100 votes; he
was barely installed before revolution was pre-
dicted; ii has been at length accomplished, and the
military dictator who has come into power by nc
clamation will probably last no longer than his pre-
decessor. ..
1.-The patriotic professions Of PareAes only
bounded by The copiousness Of the Spanish Ian
guage. He declines receiving the salary Of presi-
dent ad int, and only draws his pay general Of
division of the army. He has also allowed Her
rera 81, 900 account Of what was due him, as he
is known to be very much embarrassed--a proof Of
honesty somewhat unusual on leaving Office in Mex
leo. ...
"El Monitor Constitutional OF the 10th says:
I'VE have been told that Gen. St Ana has written
his agent in the capital to represent to the govern
ment that his pecnniary endorsements are such
that he has not wherewith to cover his necessary
expenses, and to ask them to pay him any amount
on account Of what is due him..
The official correspondence between the French
legation and the Minister of Foreign Affairs on the
subject Of the occurrences at the bafio de Cabaos,
is published in the last Mexican papers Informa-
ton had been received in Mexico, that the French
government had disavowed the course pursued by
Baron Alleye de Cyprey in regard to these events.
1.-THE Monitor commenced, on the 9th, transla-
ton of Mr. Kendal's Narrative Of the Expedition
to Santa Fe and continues tsextracts up to the last
dates. ...
