The Governor of chihuahua Don Luis Terra
zas, arrived here few days ago. He has been
very active in raising force large enough to
eXpel the Imperial merceDares from the State.
The appointment of General Logan has raised
the hopes of the Republicans 10 the highest
pitch. There is no doubt but that with a little
material aid from the United States the Govern
ment would soon be able to drive the usurpers
into the seas, and to place republican institutions
The PeriOdaco Ofcidl, the organ of Juarez,
publishes (January l) the following details of
the French occupation OF chihuahua
We have received the following particulars
from a person worthy of confdence:-The
French force entered the capital of the State
(ChIhuahua) on the llth, almost without being
noticed. Their numbers were estimated by some
persons at less than five hundred, but counted
over six hundred. This force was commanded
by Captain Billot, and consisted of three COM
pany of the 1th Infantry Regiment and one COM
pany belonging to the lst Squadron of the Chas
seurs dAtrique, two pieces OF artillery, and their
train. They were accompanied oy some sixty or
eighty Mexican traitors.
They Immediately placed guards at all the
outlets of the city, cutting OFF communication

event OF any one abusing the privilege he would
be Immediately shot, and in case of the offender
being servant, his master would in addition be
punished by fine and IMPRISONMENT
II is reported that another column of one
thousand men, under Lieutenant-C Colonel DIAL
Why, will arrive between the 18th and 20th inst
escorting large amount OF specie. This force
is to remain at Chihuahua, while the troops
already here WILL it is supposed, march to El
PasO. Tie column expected consists of the rest
OF the 1st squadron of Chasseurs dAfrique, and
either the 62d Infantry Regiment or the other
battalion of the 7th.
The course pursued by the French commander
cannot deceive any save the most simple. He
visited several private houses, and informed the
inmates that they need have no tears, and that
he was desirOus of becoming acquainted with
those persons reputed 10 be Liberals In order to
prove to them that he was more liberal than any
OF them. He paid visit to the house of Don
Luis TerTaZas Governor Of the State of Chihua-
hua), who accompanied President Juarez in his
flight, and informed the lady of Senior Terrazas
that, as her husband had been elected Governor
of the State by the people, he was ready to recog-
