Accounts from Mexico to the 9th ult.
represent the continuance Of the Indi-
an massacres in as terocious manner
as ever. The Picayune says, that Sc.
yeral large and influential parties in
Mexico are plotting for change in the
government. One party wishes to join
Mexico once more to Spain, and counts
upon Spanish troops and authorities in
Cuba for assistance another party,
that of the manufacturing interests, is
trying quietly and slowly to get up a
feeling in favor Of the return of Santa
Anna to power. There is still another
party, and not feeble one, in favor Of
immediate annexation to the United
States.
