Ii is stated that Santa Anna, immediate

of that city wait his return with anxiety.
They have paraded, through the streets, his
portrait, with shouts Of joy, and hail his re-
turn as their delivery from misfortune and
oppression. Some of the New Orleans
papers regard his safe arrival at Vera Cruz
questionable, and seem to think that the
American squadron, long since apprised of
his designs, will not allow him to enter that
city. Should he succeed in his object, his
recall may be likened to the triumphal re-
turn Of Napoleon from EIba--the banished
hero welcomed back with shouts of Joy by
his countrymen, and once more permitted to
pursue his career Of ambition. A Water
