The royal mail steamer Dee, Capt. Allen, ar
rived at Ship Island on Sunday, the Goth inst.
from Vera Cruz. She left Tampco on the 18th
and Vera Cruz on the 10Th inst, having been
detained at the latter port sixteen hours awaiting
dispatches by the British courier from the city of
Mexico. She had on board five passengers for
Havana, five for England and twelve for this
city. Among the latter were Major Dimick, U.
S. Army, DR.. Wiley, Fleet Surgeon, U. S. Navy,
and Mile Dmier. The Dee had on board $780,
600 in specie.
The courier of the English legation had arrived
at Vera Cruz, having left the pial on the 18Th
instant-four days later than our previous advces.
There was yet no quorum Of the Congress al
Queretaro, from which city our dates to the
10th inst, but majority of the Deputies in the
city are represented as approving the treaty.
The Star of the Illh says that at a meeting of
the Deputies on the 7th there were twenty four
present. 1t requires nearly thrice this number
to form quorum.
Gen. Lane reached Mexico from Orizaba on
the 10th inst, without further adventure.
Lieut.. G.. A. Scott, of the 18th Kentucky Vol
unteers. is dead.
Gen. Smiths brigade was reviewed on the 10th
inst, by Maj. Gen. Butler.
Col. Clarke, with his command, was al Cuern-
vaca on the 9th inst. Gen. Alvarez was making
great efforts TO cut off his supplies and the coonc!
in turn taking every means TO thwart the
designs Of the redoubable commander Of the
Pinios.
In the Star of the 18th we find the following
article in regard 10 Santa Anna. 1t is of much
Importance:
Santa Anna.-The Monitor of yesterday gives
an extract from letter written by q person Of
distinction, which says: Seen. Santa Anna has
asked for passport TO enable him to leave the
Republic, and has recommended his friends TO
sustain peace and the Government of Pena Y
Pena." The same paper cites an article in the
Constitution prohibiting the President of the Re-
public rom leaving the territory while in the
ercise of the supreme command, and one year af
teT1cardS. Another Queretaro correspondent Of
the Monitor lntimates that Santa Anna's official
communications in regard to his passport, &C.,
will be published. We hardly know what TO
make OF this movement of the ex-Presden,, and
al first were inclined TO diScredit the statement
altogether, If it be true, however, that he re.
commends his friends TO support the Government
OF Pena Pena, II eviuces very sudden change
Of opinion in Santa Anna. We suspect that if
any such recommendation has been made, ii is
for the purpose of securing safe egress from
the Republic, rather than of giving any sincere
support 10 the pacific policy of Pcna Pena.
From the n o. Bee, 22d
There were two arrivals on Saturday from
Vera Cruz-the steamer propeller Eudora, Capt.
Davidson, which left on the 18th, and the schoon-
er Mississippi Capt. Clark, whidh saiued on the
18th. The intelligence brought by these arri-
walls, adds bit little to former advces. though it
corroborates the news of the negotiation of a
treaty of peace.
An express reached Vera Cruz en- the morning
of the 18th bringing dates from the capital to the
9Th. 1t is believed that the eepress brought down
duplicates which went forward by Mr.. Freaner
Nothing has been heard Of the train which left
Vera Cruz, some time ago under command of Col.
Bankhead, for Orizaba.

juato and Jalsco repudIate it, and Gen. Busta-
mentc, TO whom the command of the revoted
forces had been offered, declines the honor, stat
ing that he owes allegiance 10 the Supreme Govern
mcnt, which he is not disposed to forfeit. la no
part of the country that has been heard from has
1t met with the slightest favor not in San
LUIS itself, the governor having been arrested on
his attempt TO promuIgate it as a Iaw-when he
resigned Rosa, the minister of Foreign ReIa-
tlons, has published document in answer TO the
pronunciamento almost as long as the Presidents
message. 1t is important as giving the views of
the Government at Querelaro on the subject Of
peace. 1t is the first time | have seen anything
favorable to treaty of peace, coming from an
official source.
He pronounces the San Luis plan project for
the dissolution ofthe Republic, and shows the crimi
nality OF dividing the force and weakening the
resources of the Sumpreme Government, at
moment when they are straining every energy 10
place the country in proper position for defence.
He says the inevitable result of the movement, if
successful, would be TO leave the Republic with
out Government, and subdivided into so meny
conflicting powers as to fall an easy prey to the
enemy.
