Great excitement had been created in the capital
by the pardon granted by the Congress the three
assassns Of DR.. Bcistegu. The Congress was as
sailed on oil hands for this act Of weakness; the
journals unanimously speak Of IL as direct attack
on society, and the respectable citizens Of Mexico
had nearly all purchased arms to defend their

murder.

that the government has ordered the commanding
general In the State Of Vera Cruz 70 proceed with
his aids and body OF troops to the bar at the
mouth Of the river Coatzacoacos, 10 finish the for
uhcations already commenced there. The cause
assigned is the fear Of an invasion OF the Isthmus
OF Tehuantepec by body OF Americans, who, un
der the name Of "laborcrs," and TO the number OF
five hundred men, are TO leave New Orleans under
the command or guidance of the masters OF the Sa-
ravia and Almagrcs, which vessels were seized of

A quarrel has ariscn between tho Legislature Of

The former insists upon greater reduction Of the

duction OF 10 per cent, but refuses to do away
with any of the duties. The lower House Of Con.

some Of the duties. The question not settled
