By the arrival here yesterday of the steam
ship Portland, Capt. Place, fIom Vera Cruz
the 2sth ult., we have received letters and
files of the Areo Iris, up to that date inclu-
sive--with intelligence from the Capitol to
the goth.
REvoLurroN-The standard of revolution
has again been raised in that distracted
country. Gen. PaIedes having succeeded in
causing detection Of portion of the Army,
has taken possession Of the city Of Guanajuato.
He is seconded by Padre Jarauta; no other
name of note has yet appeared in the ramifi-
cations Of the conspiracy. The Mexican Co
vernment had forworded to the scene of in-
surrec,ion all its disposable force under Gems.
Bustamente, Yanez, Minon and Cortazar. On
the goth ult., dispatches had been received
from those officers, ntimating that they had
so disposed their forces as to compel Paredes
10 risk battle, which would be definite in
its issue. But it is impossible to predicate on
the heterogeneous composition of the Mexi-
can Army, and no one knows what sympathy
exists between Paredes and the Geaerals OPP
posed to him. The following is the Plan, or
Manifesto, of Paredes, on raising the standard
of revolution.
Plan Of Paroles.
Mexicans The work commenced in
iniquity and treason in 1S45, has just been
consummated: more than half the Republic
has been sold to the invading enemy, for a
contemplate sum: the remainder of our ter
ritory will be occupied by the same North
American soldiers, converted into the guards
of the traitor Pena, to sustain the most afro
cous crime the world has ever beheld. The
past recalls to mind Count Julian's betrayal
of his country, through personal resentment ;
but this horrid act bears no comparison with
that of Pena: the former mscreani, blind
with rage brought the Moors into Spain, en-
posing himself to personal danger: but the
latter, to return to the Injuries and pleasures
of the Capitol, and to keep himself i'll power
sold his country, without the smallest risk
after having disarmed the na,ion-extinguish-
ed her public spirit, and persuaded her that
insult is advantage-opprobrium honor-and
the humiliating state in which she lay pros
trate at the feet of her enemy was brilliant
attitude and fattering distinction prospect. J
It is possible, Mexicans, that yon will tram
quilly and uncomplainingly suffer this afiront!
Will you coolly look on and see your breth-
rem in California, New Mexico, and Chihna-
hua, sold to the foel These, your brethren,
valient and true, who have constantly fought
in the vanguard, to sustain the religion, the
customs, and the nationality of Mexico! No I!
No! IA thousand times MOI!
Few in number are those who subscribe
this, but they are determined TO perish in
sustaining such precious interests. We invite
you to follow our example, and take up arms
against the traiiorous Government raising the
banner of insurrection. We will call on Spain
and other nations to sustain the independence
of Mexico, and they will assist us. We now
give out the same, proclaiming the following
articles -
lst. The present Government is renounced
and disavowed, for having betrayed the ma
tion.
I'd The States, consequently, resume their
sovereignty.
Sd. The same shall consult on the means
of replacing the deposed Government.
4th. The Governors of the States will de-
sgnate the person or persons who shall COM
mand the forces in each.
5th. The troops Of the standing army who
give in their adhesion 10 the present plan
will, conformably to usage, the orders of the
General of the highest rank who may fol-
low their example.

Immediately after the news of the insur-

themselves and Herrera published an ad.
