In all these measures he Is sustained by his Council Of
government the caring holiness with which he has
laid bare the ntrgues OF political mounteoanks ia Mexico
has caused great sensation In every section of the

him to do by the force OF 10 short, he has
taken his stand the head Of Nuevo Leon and Coahus
and dares Comonforts government to measure swords

Territory of Nuevo Leon and Coahuila and this they
have done without the least assistance from the powers
