Els. Deta--We are all at Il perfect stand ard anx-
lously awaiting the disposition ofour Government
The city Is much more quiet than has been for many
years indeed il j. well regulated any city in any
country The only difficulties occurring are caused
by occasional drunken soldier falling in with the
te at night, which usually result in the assassi-
nation OF the soldier. Many of the families who
left during the siege returning their homes
The wounded are recovering and the general health
of the army good. Day before yesterday the Arch
bishop paid visit TO Gen. Scott His Holiness was
received with marked distinction by the Generaln-
Chief, and should not be surprised if the Generals
alidbillty and easy style of conversation somewhat
pleased him, at least for the moment. ...-s..r
ltisabsolutely impossible conjecture what course
the politics Of this country viii take. The discard
ant factions arring each jealous lest the other
should conclude peace and be lett in power The
democrats (puros) have been endeayorinp for many
years to break down the privileged establishments
OF the church and military and are striving to
accomplish their object through Us. For that reason
they are striving 10 proong the war and prevent, by
sowing the seeds OF discord and anarchy, the present
party power from taking any measures that may
lead To peace. Senior ID. Luis de la Rosa Minister
OF Foreign Relations, has called meeting OF the
u vernors o the several States, Tor the purpose Of
slying whether they in favor of pro- 0ngne the
war, AMI they that they shall pledge themselves
To furnish the necessary and supplies to prose-
cute il. The MEETING was intended To have taken
place some time this month. but in anticipation Of H.
e OF tho Governors OF different Sta es have visitd
the government at Querelaro, aud returned TO their
hones' taking active MEASURES IN port OF the pres
ent CTOvernmsnt, VINO are evidently DESTROYS OF con-
culilg peace. "El PrOgressO," the state paper Of
GLanauato, OF Oct 81, says, sit has been assured
that the Governor intends markings peigriDaton TO
the different towns of the State for the prrposo of
making speeches to the people, in order 10 excite
a spirit ofpe@c, which his Excellency says, has al
ready commenced TO revive" The bishop of Quad
alrjard also recognises t9 Government Of icna He-
m, and his determination TO give il his earnest
support. The states Of Vera Cruz and Oaiaca have
a 50 made similar determination. With this addi-
tiona support, would be led 70 believe that the
present party in power would be enabled TO pursue
whleye policy they might please; but there is so lit
tie confidence TO be placed in anything the Mexicans
say, that there Is always for doubt AT last they
have been enabled TO yet meeting Of Congress al
Quere.aro, which assembled on the ~ OF this month";
and are already BEGINNING 10 make demonstrations
towards revolution, which seems TO be the univer-
sal means taken by the weaker party 10 overthrow
the strOnger. TIL P1nay Pena Government, il seems
will have contend with the friends OF Santa Anna
and the Puros. The former is endeayoring TO rally
the old army in his favor, and the latter exerting
themselves 10 prevent the Government from doing
