these connections, says Ell Indicator. because
if they are continued, they will infalably pro-
duce our ruin. Our enemy Is already in

SIR; The enemies of the existing order Of az.
lairs, who are equally enemies OF public rePose,
have aimed this day 10 disturb the Peaceable
inhabitants of this city, by circulating alarming
TepUTtS, pIttcHuIuk tuut p'N0NS P'opS''y 49,
threatened and that the citizens composing the
Ma tional Guard were divided in opnion-all
this being done VITA shs corrupt purpose OF
perpeuating discord and preventing the as
sembing Of that Congress which is to re.or-
ganise the Republic. Conduct so perfidious al
a moment of extreme peril for the Independence
Of the country, is calculated 10 effect most deep
ly every true patriot and the people who ea>
gerly sought TO learn the origin Of the alarm,
and to place themsel YES around the Supreme
Government. But the Government, support
ed by public opinion, dictated the most effica-
cious precautionary measures, thanks to which,
calm was re.esablshed, without the necessity
Of resort to force or any other arms than
those Of persuasion; and this people, which has
been so attrociously illuminated, afforded one
more proof Of the prudence, good sense and
moderation which it has SO often given.
In the supplement TO the Diario Of this
day, OF which l send yoa copies, you will
find the proclamation, issued in the circum-
stances by his Excellency charged with the
supreme executive power. Firm in his
principles, he is determined to carry out
the programme Of the revolution commence
ed at Jalisco, and seconded in the Cts
del OF this capitol. Standing upon this ba-
sis; he directs me TO recommend 10 your
|l,ESseIlency that you provide, with the most
fs6ficitous zeal, that 10 your State no loot
hold is found for the suggestions Of the
enemies of the Plan Of the Citadel, who
aim al nothing less than the destruction Of
the Government. But on the contrary,
you are directed assiduousIy to provide for
the security Of public order and liberty, as
well as for rendering the assistance indis.

which the country is compromised.

Circular 10 the Governors Of the States,
and the political Chiefs OF Territories.
Subsequently to this latter difficulty,
Senior Cortina sent in his resignation Of his
post. His letter is dated the I7lh OF Oct.
He says that his services can be no longer
useful to the Government, as his views and
wishes have been misrepresented; and he
takes advantage Of the order and tranquil
ty which prevails in the capital, TO lay down
his authority. The newspapers promise
that he will follow up his resignation with
an expose OF his motives for taking step
which was regarded as very critical in the
then existing state Of affairs. The subject
Of these connections in the capital, is touch.
ed upon by the papers as a very grave one,
and we cannot doubt it is so considered by
the Government, or the above circular
would not have been issued. We have,
however, the papers upon one side only,
and are therefore unable TO fathom the Sc.
cretscauses Of the difficulty. The promo.
ters OF it are stigmatsed in general terms
as disorganizers, monaTchists and enemies
Of their country. ..
We may as we'll mention 10 this connec.
ton that Rejon, the author of this circular,
subsequently, resigned his portfolio. We do
not know his motives, but it indicates far.

The Mexicans appear to be perfectly ap-
prised Of the state Of things in Matamo ras.
Their accounts Of the sickness which pre-.
wales there are quite minute.
| The Mexicans have received intelligence
that our Government was about 10 send
vessels Of larger. class against Vera Cruz.
This led TO an immediate call upon the
troops in the interior to move to the do
