it stated that Gen Santa Anna who now there at
the head Of sufficient force silence clamor and over
his enemies is resolved the to the
utmost The fall Of V0ra Cruz considered certain
from the start, and 1t has made material change in
public opinion

purpose Both propose to make peace with the United
States, and leave their ports in pledge until there
shall be final and thorough adjustment Of all difficulties
Gen Arista Is under arrest in the city Of Mexico
being party to certain proposals made to Gen Taylor by
the most influential citizens west Of the Rio Bravo al
the commencement Of hostilities They proposed tn,
dismemberment Of the republic the ground O
the excessive expressions of the central government
and desired truce for their portion of the coun
try preliminary to the recognition Of their independence,
by the Washington Cabinet-for which consideration
they waived the boundary in dispute and conceded tn,
| Rio Grande as the boundary
Gen Taylor however refused listen to these propo
stions of truce and suppressed the Republic Of the Rio
Grdnds, an American paper established at Matamoras
for the purpose Of advocating the of the
republic How Arista will clear himself of the charge
is doubtful He admits that the Northern States sought
to gain the aid and countenance of Con Taylor for
peaceful annexation to the Union and rejected but
! insists on his own innocence in the matter. C. w
