Oh taking tGOuEG T02G before the elec-
tons took place, and reducing all things
of an administrative nature to their eIe-
ments. He had ordered the dissolution
of the Departmental assemblies, inves-
ting the Governors with extraordinary
powers, for which they were to be respon
BILE to the supreme government alone.
A deputalion appointed by General
Salas, headed by Scnor Pachcco, had
gone from Mexico toward Vera Cruz,
for the purpose of meeting Santa Anna,
welcoming his arrival, and conducting
hlm to the metropolis. They were re
ceivcd by the latter at his hacienda, En-
cerro, where long communication was
delivered to him from Salas, who entered
into detailed account of the events
which had taken place since the day on
which the revolution broke out. He
stated that his only object was the pub
lie good, etc, ETC.. in the usual inflated
'phraseology Of Mexican pcrsonages, and
that the revolution had not caused a
drop Of blood to be she'd Only one
prisoner was made, Paroles, whom it
was necessary to secure, to prevent a
forcible reactionary movement His
first act, after being invested with su-
preme power, was to dispatch to Monte
rey, New Mexico and California all the
disposable military force of the Rer ub-
.ic. He only waited the arrival of San
ia Anna at the city of Mexico 10 depo-
site in his hands the Executive power
Santa Anna makes long reply to
this, in which in his usual style, he
vaunts his purity of purpose, the sacrii-
ces he had made for Mexico, and de-
clarcs that his mission will be ended
when he has restored order to his dis
tracted country. "My authority shall
cease, when shall have re-established
the nation in their rights; when l shall
see her disposing of her destinies
through her representatives; and when,
if Heaven grant me strength, | shall
have deposited at their feet the laurels
gathered on the Sabine" F1e declines

r,ation still felt in his mutilated leg,
caused by his anxicties, and the fatigue
he has undergone coming from Havana
The people in the city of Mexico
were quite delighted at the DEGREES is
sued by Salas regarding the re-establish-
ment of the Constitution Of 1924, and
the plenary powers with which the en-
SUNG Congress are 10 be invested. 1t is
supposed that the Congress must be
called together at an earlier period than
the 9th of December, to which it stands
convoked.
The deputation, with Senor Pacheco,
left Santa Anna at Bucerro, where he
still remained at latest dates
The utmost activity seems to have
been displayed by the Government Of
S.,las, during the interregnum between
the pronunciamento and Santa Annals
arrival at Vera Cruz. Wealthy indivi
duals had been particularly addressed
by the Minister of Finance, adjuring
them to come forward to the relief OF
the government and the country by do,
nations oemoney, beasts of draught and
burthen, & to convey stores for the ar

from the invaders. who were provided
with abundance of every thing, and with
inexhaustible resources at their back.
Nothing appears in any of the papers
we have seen relative TO the receipt by
the Government Of Mexico of any propo
si,ions froMPresident Polk, for the ces-
sation of the war. The Locomotor of
Vera Cruz says that the reports of reac-
tions IN favor Of Paredes, or others,
against the lately expressed will of the
nation, are wholly unfounded; they are
mere alarms invented and circulated
from wanton or malevolent feeling.
