VERA Cruz, June Is, 1858.
We are reduced for cur news from the interior
to the special espresso, which bring the mails Of
the English and American steamers, and as to
the news which we DO get, it is favorable to ore or
another Of the factions into which this unhappy
country is divided according TO the complexion
and the feelings Of those who send it, For this
reason, the news received by the Vera Cruz author
ites and published in their organ, Ell Progreso, is
always very favorable TO the COnsttutionslists.
For the most part the PurOs are as weak as the
Cercales These are masters of the territory that
they cover, and which they have conquered by
force of arms; and although the sympsthies Of The
richer classes Of Mexico are with them, they lend
them no aid The demagogues rely on the favor of
the popuace, but lack of the power and the tact to
develop the popular element with prudence has
caused their forces, in some of the States, to be
looked upon as real bandits, on account OF their ex-
cessps. Hence il happens that, with the exception
% cruz tine city and the frontier where, 81
far, the PurOs have maintained the ascendency,
throughout the whole Republic 10 to be found
medley OF constitutional parties and parties OF tho
Cove rnment holding small portions Of territory,
and succeeding each other every three or four days
imposing such contributions they choose aud
shooting down whomeyer they choose, IN the name
now of Liberty and now OF Religion.
The union of the Governmental fOrces of San Luis
and vicinity under the command OF Osoilo, and their
march toward the frontier, with the intention oil at
lacking the forces OF Vdaurr, allow us to hope that
there may soon be an action which will decide the
question Vidaurri is in Monterey, and has no idea
of moving. but will allow OsOlo 10 attack him;
Zuazua is between Zacatecas aud San LUIS with
, 600 men, threatening Os0llo's retreat. Os0Ho mas
from 3. 900 to 1900 men, and with these ne must
beat Zuazua and Vidaurr in detail, or sustain their
combined attack in front and rear. In TINS last
Gaze he will inevitably be routed, and Nidaurrl VIII
have an open road to Mexico, where no opposition
can well be made to him. But if, as some believe,
OsoIlo shall gain the day, the Puros and the ConstI'
tution will be laid on the shelf for some time
The Government of ZulOaga will III this case no
more triumph than they Its exaggerat0ns Win re-
spect TO the clergy and its lack OF energy III deahg
decisive blows as we'll as its want OF tact IN having
made itself blind partisan of Osolo, place II III
very bad position, which is becoming worse anu
worse from day 10 day from want OF resources SLICE
the clergy will not give another real.
All tLis strengthens the partiSans OF Santa Ahha,
who are actively at work presenting their nero as
the only man who can conquer botn the parties
which are now disputing the government. Alnone
these is said to be Osollo himself and II Is conn
IDENTITY asserted that if ne trlumphs over IGauiil'
