where we have by the Tennessee newspaper accounts
from all parts Of Mexico to the date Mramon had
left Guadalaara in the direction of the capital but hardly
Tor 1t. He was travelling at his eisure in the meantime
however he had sent Of his mos, trusted friends
Colonel Ayestaran, with letters to Robes and others
These arrived the night of the lSh but their contents
were unknown, as also the final decision of the writer
But the messenger had publicly given the capital
that the President elect would advance after brief
pte at uerearo, not unattended however by troops
far as Iacubaya, where before taking further steps he
would confer with his friends.
As to Mrsmons reception Of the news announcing the
new order OF things at the capital the statement is con

Of Mexico, and absolutely preudcia to the Nationality of

which seems to watch over his person preserved him."
The names Of the victims have not reached us.
Before leaving the second capital of the republic the
President also levied forced loan of $500 900 (haf
