The steamship New Orleans, Capt. Aud, arrived
Yesterday morning She brings us papers from Vera
Cruz to the 21st, from the City OF Mexico to the 10th
and from Queretaro to the 14th. The news by this
arrival causes us to look forward with considerable
degree of certainty to the ratification of the treaty
Our correspondent Chaparral expresses much conf
depce that such will be the result The American
Star of the 10th says:
QueretdrO.-Our advices are up to the llth inst.
but they bring nothing of any legislative interest
The treaty was referred to the Committee of Rela
tions, every member of which in favor of peace
1t was thought they would report by Saturday last
The exposition of Rosa was having a marked efiec
upon members.
From our Queretaro correspondent, whose letter
is dated the 18th, we learn that the committee on
Foreign Relations reported the treaty back Wltha
recommendation that it be Immediately ratliied
Senior Rejon's pamphlet against the war had been
referred to committee and afterwards entered upon
the record The report that Herrera had been
elected President. turns out to be unfounded; in
consequence of an normality in the certificates OF
the Senators from Michoacan an election could not
be held but Pena Pena was elected provisional
President receiving the votes ofeleven states against
four for Herrera. From the American otar OF the
10th we extract the following
Sr. Otero introduced and read in the Senate a
project for the immediate organization of the Ma
tonal Guard.
There were eighty-seven Deputies in attendance,
and the number was daily increasing.
Almonte not having succeeded in gaining ad
mission to the Senate, has gone to New Leon. Pa
redes had gone to Zacatecas, with a view, it was
supposed, Of getting up a revolution, and Ampudia
had assisted him.
The recent popular movement in Jalisco in favor
of peace, had good deal disconnected the Deputies
from that State, who are in favor of war
On the 10th inst. an insurrection, headed by Col.
Montero, broke out in San Luis Potosi. The in
surgents took possession of the fortress of Santuaro
de Guadalupe, and declared in favor of prosecu-
ton of the war. The Governor, however, immed-
ately called out the militia, and the revolt was spec
Oily suppressed by the capture of the revolutionists
This result adds additional strength to the Govern
ment and the peace party. From the same paper
above quoted we extract the following:
il appears that the Government of Queretaro has
been informed that portion of the garrison had got
up pronunciamento, but that it was promptly put
down, in manner satisfactory to the national au-
thorities. The leaders in the movement, did not
go so far even as TO publish their project, as they
were in daily expectation of Paredes who had gone
to Aguascalientes. They had taken possession of
every piece of artillery and the munitions The
officers and chiefs present. conducted themselves
well, showing their loyalty to the Government
The Auditor of the War Department. Gordon, was
arrested He had been one of the principal agents
in the sedition. The prompt and decided measures
taken to put down this revolutionary outbreak are
deserving of all praise.
We subjoin translation of the letter of the pro-
visional Governor of San Luis to Senior Rosa, an
nouncing the occurrence of the disturbance:

San Luis Potosi, JHay 10, 1S48.
The Race on Sunday over the Penon Course was
peculiarly interesting, but, it seems, only to the
knowing ones. The Jockeys had it all their own
way while the race being run, say those
who were on the ground; but after it was over,
those who did not kn0tD what was what, before and
during the running, concluded that it was time to
find out the ropes and in their search for light
some of them got their peppers darkened, and in
fact ." damned fuss generally " was kicked up on
the Course. Some of those who could not see how
the cat jumped began talking about the affair after
their arrival in the city. which led to more fsti-
cuffs. One man, it is said, having got the worst of
an encounter with an antagonist, jumped on another
and satisfied his honor by giving him Jesse" The
grand finale to the whole affair was more on the
dramatic than the pugilistic order-two or three of
the " knowing ones being escorted before his Ex-
cellency, the Chief of Police and others, to avoid
similar attention, took leg-bail-or, as Richelieu
said to the courtier, the air was unhealthy and
change to the skies Of Italy or the terra calieate
would be better. We did not find out the time
they made, or the horses on the Course-ior,
hear, the stand gave way and preciptated the
Judges to the earth in double-quick time.
Returned.-Capt Blake's command of cavalry,
which escorted the Conqueror of Mexico to Vera
Cruz, has returned to this city.
1t does NOT appear that this revolutionary move
ment amounted to much-the authorities promptly
putting it down. 1t shows the spirit, however, of
the turbulent disturbers of the public peace, who
have kept San Luis in such constant state of ex-
cIement and agitation. Paroles, we observe by
our latest papers, has left Aguascalentes for Zaca
tecas-probably with view of extending the field
of his operations Its he, and such as he, Almonte,
Alvarez, and Geray, Supported by Rejon, Otero and
a few Others who will array themselves against the
of Herrera, the moment the treaty is
ratified. We trust the Supreme Government will
be strong enough to put down every outbreak as
promptly and efficiently as that of San Luis was
crushed by the constituted authorities of that pow
eriul State.
Paroles and his friend Jarauta have gone to Zaca-
tecas since which time nothing has been heard of
their movements.
oG)dca.-Every thing was perfectly tranquil in
this State at the last accounts.
