PROGRESS OF THE CIVIL wAR-vARfous SUCCESSES
-4ovEMESTs or THE BELLIGERENT FORCES
VERA CRUz, April 18th
II will be shown by newspapers that no de.
cided event has vet ended the civil war which is
now shaking this poor distracted country. The
successes of the different parties are various,
and rs one loses in one section of the country
the other gains in another section. The Church
marty. it is true defeated the Coalition in the
Northwest. but as an offset to that Cara has
triumphed in Tamaulipas Crampico); Jesqueita
bns defeated Gandara and his savages in SOnO'
"a. and Ills said, shot their leader; Yucatan and
Tabasco adhere to the Constitution; and last
though not least Vera Cruz has succeeded in
driving the invaders from her territory.
Nevertheless, the Liberal Party finds itself in
critical position. 1t wants money, and its
sources Of supply are pretty well exhausted,
il. C., the customs of Vera Cruz. TampicO, &c
The duties to accrue for months to come have
been discounted in advance, and trade necessari
ly languishing. Under existing circumstances
there will be very little acCruing from that
source for some time. The fact is, either &
forced loan" must be resorted to, or the Liber
ais will be compelled to give in. True, Jaure7
has sent 81. Mnta to Washington to urge the re
cognition of his Government, aud to raise a loaU
Of few millions Meanwhile that agreeable
arch old humbug, Admiral German, has gone in
search ofthe ambulatory Government Of JaurcZ
to offer him six millions of money, six armed
steamships, and six thousand men, on the part
of certain New York capitalists. Again, the
grand Sanhedrim of the fillibusters in New Or.
leans offer million cash for certain grants OF
land and other concessions. All these offers are
very well, but there's always a slight condition
annexed which proves the stumbling block. u
course those rendering these loans will want Sc.
curity for their money.
The Liberal chiefs very readily pledge the
public revenue, 1. e., the customs, but as have
before shown, that source is sucked pretty dry
Moreover, should the Church Party prevail, how
much would n contract with Jaurez and ZamorS
be WORTHY Therefore, those who are so anxi
Gus to relieve their neighbors' necessities say
Let us introduce few thousand emigrants as
settlers on the lands you are going TO give US
and that will be security Gnoughl" But to thi,
very reasonable proposition the struggling pa
triots shake their leads, and like a coy miss dy,
ing TO say "Ycs" are afraid. In short, il is The
old story of tiRleO DdHdOs a. Iona .TCrsAtes But
they must come to it at last, or Zuloaga will vel
carry the day, for the Church Golfers are seem,
ngly ineXhaustible.
After some canonahing and few skirmiShcs
the bell yerent forces Of La Lave and Echeaga
ray seem to have gone into Summer quarters
the former at the ''dewy little bit Of heaven
dropped to EARTH" Jalapa, and the latter in the
still cooler region about the neishborhoOd OfPe
rOte. Certainly, n very comfortable arrange
ment during the hot months. II this is what
they cnll war why "werc it not for those vile
guns, too, would be n soldier"
