The Spanish question is said TO- be only postponed, and

purpose Of finishing the revolution with this money.
The amounts 81 300 o00 OF which about $500 900
or 5000 COO belong rich houses and the balance

very little belongs TO Vera Cruz.
This the heaviest blow Degolado could have inflicted
upon his which Of sent order for

possession o. the Miranon government
The word s. that Deeollado, having 900 men, lost
capital where they bad neither troops nor money, On
the contrary he committed the grea. bunder Of reacng
his steps In order TO take Guadaaars whereas he ought
