the city of Mexico, had numerous 80VOC con-
Acts with the almost innumerable swarm of

vantage of the • merican troops, who were, at
length, under the necessity of retiring from

the city. It s further stated, that Santa An

capital, at the head of 10,000 regular troops,
' and that fighting had been resumed, and was
going on desperately at the lost accounts.
