FURTHER FROM MEXICO.

Papers Of the City of Mexico, up to Marc
"a. have been received at New Orleans. tt
Progress of Santa Anna has itself most o
interest. He took leave Of his army Marcel
IA, at San Luis Potosi, in brief and happy
address, full of compliment TO them for thei
conduct AT the field of LA Angosiura," pro-
tesIatious of patriotism for himself, and hate
red Of their "perfdious invaders" He states
that he had already sent forward two brigade:
of infantry and enc of cavelry. with their
batteries, to assist in the defence Of Vera
Cruz. The rest Of the army is to defend the
frontier. The Picayune says Of his march tc
the capital
From Ssu Luis to the city of Mexico San
Ia Annals ptoSress was triumphal. He con-
linually met delegations from Congress sent
out TO propitiate him. Addresses from the
different states we're presented 10 him on his
route. He arrived in the immediate vicinity
of the capital on the Goth. On the Odd he
took the oath Of Office as President Of the
Republic at the city of Guadalupe de Hidal-
go. The afternoon oil the following day he
entered the city of Mexico with great pomp
aud solemniiy. A I'e Deum was sung in the
metropolitan church, where he received the
VI Viz dulJOlitES duu COTDOTd-
tons.
The cabinet Of Santa Anna is composed
as follows: ID. Mariana Otero. Minister OF
Foreign Affairs; d. Juan Rondero. of the
Treasury; D. Francisco Suarvey T.arte, OF
Justice, and d. Jose Ignacio Gutierrez, OF
War.
From anything we find in the papers, it
does not appear that Santa Annals assump-
lion of the rains OF government is a revolu-
ton. He of course dispossesses Gomez
Farias as chief executive officer. but without
driving the latter from his station Of Vice
President.
The Inaugural Address of Santa Anna in
dicates nothing Of his future policy. lie is
highly complimentary TO Congress and the
people, aud no, little so towards himself,
declaring no principles, and is only superhu-
Gus in words, He says
have entered upon the Supreme Magis-
tracy because have seen that ii was the sole
legal means of terminating the disturbances
of this capital, and because believe shall
thus be able TO facilitate the prosecution of
the war, aud to save the independence and
honor OF Mexico. which wish to present

title than that OF 4 good citizen, and in
speaking Of me that il should he said that |
always loved my couuiry-that served il
with zeal, and that | sacrificed myself for its
guod.
We see nothing concerning the grant Of
money by The clergy to Santa Anna.
Mr., Kendall writes that the last reports
from the capital indicate that the dissensions
are not YET terminated. Santa Anna is said
10 have allied himself with the party of + aras
aud 10 he determined to support the war at
the expense of the church.

The Picayune also publishes the details OF
