Poor SANTA ANNA-This celebrated person
has for several years been living at ST. Thomas
in quiet manner, enjoying to the full bis fond
ness for cockhghting; thinking, however, that
chance for his peculiar talents was made by
the invasion OF Mexico and Che occupation Of
the French, Santa Anna went there, but was
summarily dismissed by'Gsneral Bazaine, who
sent him out of the country. The French
seem destined to extinguish Santa Anna AT
the bombardment by them OF Vera Cruz, under
the reign Of Louis Philippe, Santa Anna lost his
leg; now, under Louis Napoleon, he loses his
head--politically.
