FRok CENTRAL AMERIcA-By accounts in the
Mexican papers, we learn that hosilities have
tualy commenced between Salvador and Guate-
mala. 1t appears that zen Carrera, at the head
of 500 men, invaded Salvador, and encountered
the Sslvadorian army, $500 strong, under Presi
dent Varasconcelos, at place called San Jose.
An engagement took place, in which, according to
the Guatemalcan accounts, Carrera was completely
successful, routing the allied army, which lost 22S
killed, $50 or 200 prisoners, 200 muskets, and
large amount of ammunition, &c. Carrera's loss,
according to these reports was about fifty. In the
pursuit which followed, the Salvadorian army sus-
tanned still further losses.
Carrera has been appointed commander lin chief
of the forces of Guatemala, and medals have been
voted by the Congress to the soldiers engaged in
the battle of San Jose. At the city of Guatemala
seven thousand persons were under arms.
1t appears that, after this brilliant victory Care
ra took up position at the town of Santa Anna
but the approach of General Cabanas, he re-
tired into the Guatemalean territory. The reasons
for this singular movement are not known
