forna news states that Santa Anna was
on his way to Mexico, having left Car
on the 18th for Havana.
The parlizans of Baez had started
revolution iu Venezuela, and were close
ly besieging President Monagas in his
palace.

The Tribune is informed that an agent
of General Vidaurri has arrived in this
city from Montery, with authority to
procure loan guaranteed by mortgage
of all the Custom House duties Of the
northern frontiers of Mexico; the money
thus borrowed is to be employed in send
ing him arms and munitions of war, and
in organizing an expedition Of volunteers
to take up arms under him, and aid his
schemes in the interior of the Republic.
The consul denies the authenticity of The
report, because the government Of Mex
leo, which is alone authorized to make
any such arrangement, has not given the
power to any person to act in such mat
,ers, consequently, any such contract or
arrangement for loan, will be inherently
null and void. 1t is also the opinion OF
the consul that any armed expedition
which should arrive at Mexican ports.
even under the pretext of assisting the
Liberal or Constitutional party, would be
regarded as fllbusters, and the individuals
composing it, treated as such.
