that I missed bra?, .notwithstanding I repair

There is no doubt at nl but that SantaA4

- - - Mink'', March 28, 1847.
The city of the Montezumas is in a most
extraordinary situation at the present writing.
Farina and the „"Constitutionalists" had a
civil war of :).3 days duration, in which no
body was killed, and neither
. party lost or,
gained an inch of ground. That is, no one
was killed of the,lighters, unless we count
some accidental deaths? but a great number
of harmless citizens lost their lives by the,
incessant firing up and down the streets, With:
which: the beligerents amused thetlisettes in
instead of going within rearhof es& other.
Santa Anna wrote ierringly to' both par-.
ties, and did his best to urge the& to eat; eac
other up, but as soon as he could reach 'th -
city with some force; he threw th , ent all over
bcard.- He is playing for 'the dictatorship,
and is in fact, clothed with absolute power at
this moment., He has induced the clergy
to aid him with money to meet, and as he Sap,
to exterminate Scott and the "perfidious in
vaders." ' Lot his plan undoubtedly is to
make peace, %hile he is yet entrenched- be
hind American,ba'yonets, and, perhaps, with
the help of American gold, he will .put his
enemies where they cannovinterfere with
him. 1 P•
As soon as he has a clear field, he will use
his army to seize the possessions of the
church, to maintain and increase it as a
foundation for a throne. Whatever he pre
tends, he has his eye on the chilli!' property,
and has twice put forward Gomez Farina as
a cat's-paw to gasp it, but when ho found
the clergy too strong for him, he made- no
.scruples to sacrifice his tool and come out on
the other side.
(From the Vora Crud Eagle. April' 13 )
1 SANTA ANNA.—Again must we appear be-
fore our readers without having any positive
information as to the doing and whereabouts
of the enemy. Rumor, in the mean time, is
rife with the news, and we must, perforce set
dovin to her account many things which,
however much we may believe them, we dare
not give to the public as veritable.
One of the mostlimportant outgivings, up
to this time, is, that Santa Anna, seconded by
La Vega, and a force of nearly 12,000 strong,
have tpken a position between this and Ja
lapa, trhich is said by thosii familiar with
the country, to be very strong.
This report we find very generally believed
