! ANOTHER LETTER ON THE SAME SUBJECT.
CARTHAGEyA, July 20, 1868.
Your paper Of the Sd of February proved to me you
were pretty familiar with the moral and political charac
ter OF H. E General don Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna &C.
How fair and tandsome does young lady appear TO her
lover when she is dressed in her paror receive him.
But he to question her waiting maid his aec
tons might cool little.
Whilst the Eexcaps thought he their angel their
Saviour he went among them unprovded for His
safety.
Frst--He left sebind bis house in Turbaco with all the
furniture and the cook ready and in good order to
commodate himself snug and quietly, should crcum-
stances order him back
Secondly has lately for Mr. psmaso villsrres
his former AID late messenger and paar between this
and Tubaco, 10 have him his person, in case his
safety required his taking adieu 10 his countrynen.
The Of his desre leave Mexico and to return
to New Gfarada he could not npart to his wife or his
daughter newly married, they feel rsioa for
their former retreat but 10 NJ. Villarea

General Santa Anna will DO no good whatever to Mex
co and Spain must not trust too much 10 treaties with
him, which have doubt he has proposed to tie Ma
drd folks to sustain hirnteH the better in his position
tnmity towards the United states
Your administration will have great deal Of trouble
with him while he rules ia Mexico. Sooner later the
war must ensue, whether your public men be for o.
| against IT,
1t s the general opinion here that Santa Anna will be
ethsr driven, BY his county tis Americans
out Of his seat and viii have 20 TO bis fvorite
amuseuents Of cock6gh.pg &c Bat think also tn
he will popriete to himself his expenses out and hare
and Mr.. Vilisrsal NAV be Of 70 him in conveying

Therefore have great regard for the old Gen.
eral 10 his private capacity we hope you viii put him
