vioss advices.
The returns Of the election for President, which
had just been held, were beginning 10 com III
pretty freely. II was not known positively wac
was elected, though the chances appear 10 us 10 oe
in favor Of Arista, though the Dfeas1 OF Iampico
considers Almontes election certain. hrisId, lnougn
supported by the whole government influence, an
not poll ne ar so strong vote as had been expected.
Aguascalientes and some other places voed Tor
Santa Anna. Arista carried the State OF Famtu-
lipas, and probably San Lus Potosi. The State OF
MEXICO has probably voted for Almonte. Michoa-
ce. went for Gomez Pedraza. Gen Braya and
kiva Palaeio received strong support in many
places.

not possible 10 tell who is elected The vote ID
given by States, and the right Of suffrage is ey-
tremey limited. Should Almonte be elected it
will be triumph of the extreme federal or demo-
sratc party, The pSros exatfad0 they are called
Arista and Rosa belong 10 the moderate republican
school of politics. Whether the election will re-
suit In revolution, or pr0nr,lcaniento, rem ains
70 be seen, though Judging from the past history Of
Mexico, such an event would not be al all impro-
babe. IL has been said that Arista would not bide
by the election OF Almente, but would, in such 4
oase, endeayor TO secure The independence OF the
northeastern States under the name of the repub-
lie of the Sierra Hadre. ArsIa is very popular in
all that section of country, but as those States, viz
Tamsupas, Coahulla and New Leon, have al
y,
head against The great influence of the capital and
the central departments, they would have no great
reason 10 complain OF the election of Almonte,
idennfed as he is with their principles

has issued kind of general order, in which he
slludes 10 the treaty OF Guadalupe, as binding the

lOnsed TO Mexico and that the elected savages will
come within the Mexican limits, and after getting
a foothold, under preteDce Of amcable intentions,
will vent their feTocity upon the defenceless nhabi
teAts. On this account, no Indians ars on any ac-
count TO he permitted to cross the frontier. Ia

Southern States. The Monitor denies, on au-
thorty, this statement, asserting that il ia false from

consequently the plan alluded TO never was pro-
posed 10 the Mexican cabinet was never dis
