by advices from the city of Mexico
to the Bird inst, we learn that Santa
Anna has created Procurator General,
with salary of - 900. and with the
honor and decorations of the Supreme
Court OF Justice. He is TO be the PR
siding Judge over all cases of Appeals.
He has also created a Council Of State
q! iWrntY-one members, to be distributed
into FIVE sections, corresponding to the
departments OF the government. The
Bishop Of Michoacan is the President
OF the Council. Santa Anna is paying
particular attention to the army, and
promises to protect the interior from
the Indians and the robbers.
$anta Anna has taken one verv sig-
nltlcant step, and that is to strip of all
honors and employ the military persons
who, during the invasion from the United
States, offered themselves up as '.voIun-
tary prisoners that is submitted them
selves 10 the North American Jurisdc-
