Oribela has proclaimed Santa Anna, re-

abr0gation of the law Lerdo and the law Juarez
l. e. the law for the sale of the church property
and the one doing away with the exclusive priv
leges Of the clergy.
The Governor of the Mtre Of Puebls had, few
days before this revolt, issued public circular TO
the clergy of that diocese, requiring them to be
peaceful and abide by the laws; but the S'gfo
states that he issued another one in secret at the
same time exciting them to rebellion.
The forces of the reyOters at Puebla amount to
about 1900 men. The church pays the common
soldiers q dollar day. You will be curious to
know where all these men came from. They are
the poor haf.sarved leperos of the streets, caught
and dressed up for occasion, men who hardly know
right from wrong. We are anxious to know the
result of this disgraceiul and troublesome affair
The invaders of Quefetaro- after appointing their
Governor Of that State (SamaniegO) who has
issued his proclamation against the " atheistcal
and heretical Government of Comonfort have
abandoned that city, and marched back to their
native mountains. They levied forced loan Of
S24 600 upon that city before they retired. Mcjla

President of the Republic, and invites him to re-
turn Samaniego still holds the post of Governor,
and that Of Con manderGeneral has been conferred
on Castreon. Troops have been sent against Mejla,
and doubtless this Governor will be removed and
punished, Notwithstanding his enormous wealth.
On the arrival here of the news of the affair at
Puebla, Commission was Immediately appointed
by Congress to proceed to the frontier to treat with
Vdaurri. do not know whether they have gone
but we had news the other day of sharp and Sc
rous action between Vidaurri's and the Govern
ment troops, and that large body had been sent
against him from San Luis Potosi.
The country in general ia in Il melancholy condl-
ton. Many large bands ofrobbers infest the whole
country; they rob on the highway and levy contr-
buttons in money and horses on the small towns
and haeiendas. They go about as reyolutionsts
and raise the cry of "regiOn and privileges of the
clergy" Their object, however, is indiscrminate

men EACH and sometimes sack considerable towns.
We betde those who close their doors against
them; they come like whrlwind, maketheir de-

pIuIder and perhaps murder the defenseless inhab-

is safe nor is any farm or village.
On the 18th inst. one of these bands entered the
town Of CeIaya (Guanaj uato) under the name of

there and i'll connection with them plurd ered the
whole town. They were occupied 10 this opera

few DAYS ago another party, quite formida-
bic one entered the town OF Tulancingo Estate Of
Mexico). and committed severe depredatlOns and
among others they shot the curate OF neighboTfg
village. TLey accused him of having been the
cause of the giving up OF Uraga to the Government
during the time that Haro Taulariz occup ed
Puebla. These parties of robbers Tor the most
par, have very lately sprung into existence, and
doubtless tney have been set on for the purpose OF
nnttiro the country into state of confusion, and
then. as laid before, they will demand the resig
nation of ComOnfor for the sake OF peace aud order
The very latest news from Pueblo is that Gen
eral Moreno after giving six hours for the peacea-
blv disposed 10 retire from the city, had opened
heavy IRE upon the insurgents, and the expectation
of their surrender was also announced.
