Quiroga, the insurgent commander, on the
10th inst. tau . tw 7ols. r.a ..
General Quiroga expressed his entire con-
fidence in the ultimate success of the revolu-
ton. He says the intelligent classes and the
property interest throughout the republic,
which formerly supported the Church party,
had always opposed Juarez, who has made
the country constantly poorer and poorer.
s'These moneyed classes, said Quiroga, will
give men and means in aid of the revolution
when its success looks probable"
