The Tennessee left in port at Vera Cruz the bark
Wildfre to sail for New York the the LIST Of Feb
ruary.
We did not receive files last night as the mails
were not opened, but through the polteness Of the
Tennessee's purser we have Vera Cruz papers up to
the day Of sailing.
The revolution initiated by Comonfort's coup detat
is in fn progress ard the whole country is in
condition Of anarchy and confusion If possible than
ever. The Governor Of Vera Cruz, by authority Of
the State Legislature, has issued decree, declaring
that the State of Vera Cruz resumes her sovereignty
without prejudice however, to her relations with her
sister States, when the legal federal authority shall
be established. The decree declares that, being
menaced by foreign invasion, it is the duty of every
citizen to take up in defense Of the national
independence and honor, and requires every Mexican
male citizen OF the State between the ages or IL and
40 years, to enrol himself for the public service An
other decree of the Governor declares formally that
"the State Of Vera Cruz leagues herself with those
Of 0saca and Puebla for the reesablishment of the
| legal authority
The Governor Of Tamanlipas Publishes two DEGREES
Of the Legislature Of that State. It is declared in
the first that Tamaupas does not second the plan OF
Tacubaya. The second decree contains four articles
By the first the central government is disavowed and
| the State Of Tamaulipas resumes her sovereignty.
By the second the Governor is authorized 10 organize
arm and have at his disposal for the service of the
State the National Guard. The third article requires
the Governor to render account TO the Legislature
Of the use he makes OF his new powers, and the
fourth provides that the decree shall remain in force
until the restoration Of the proper ederel authority
Ei Progreso doubts a rumor that Comonfort hai
on the llth inst, resigned the Presidency into tn,
hands of Juarez, on the ground that an order from
Comonfort dated the 18th had been published declar
ing the capital in a state Of siege.
El PrOgreso makes up from the papers OF the capi
tai sort Of journal of recent occurrences In that city
from which we translate few Of the most interest
ing items:
At dawn the 10th inst, the brigade Zuloaga 9TH
same body of troops that initiated the revolutionar
movement OF the 18th ult. by marching into the cit
and proclaiming the plan Of Tacubaya) pronounced
dsavowing Comonfort because be had not carrie,
into effect the plan Of Tacubaya according to thei
ideas. 1t said that part OF them wished to pre-
claim Zuloaga President, and others were in favor
Santa Anna. They were fortified in the citadel il
the converts San Augustin, Santo Domingo, and a
other points in the city. On the 11th, Presiden
Comonfort attempted to enter Santo Domingo an
San Augustin, but was not permitted to do SO. II
caused Gen. Zulosga to be arrested in the palace,
suspicion being connected with the revolt Of his bril-
ade, but the General protested that he was nnocer
and was released parole Of his word of honor f
good conduct Comonfort had gathered at the palae
about 1000 men and large quantity Of artillery an
} munitions of war. 81 s-
t On the 18th column Of the forces at the palac
was sent against the convent Of San Augustin, an
was fired upon and repulsed with loss Of eight me
t killed and wounded.
The most vindetye fury characterizes this partisa
warfare. A number OF the Comonfort faction 4,
possession Of q man whose warehouse they had ju
!, sacked and hung him because he had been captai
in the National Guards and distinguished for b
liberal Ideas In retaliation the Liberals seized an
A hung captain of the Government troops name
"a Martinez. -
n At last accounts the pronunciados in San August
e were completely be!eagured by Comonforts troop
Four pieces of artillery had been brought to be-
upon them, and after firing all night had done son
injury to the convent. ..+.t5s
: All foreigners had hosted upon their houses Il
e flags of their respective countries. t,.
81 We find nothing from other parts Of the Republ
= in the few papers received last night, but sh
u probably be able to give better idea of the CON
i, ton of the country when we get our files.
