ANOTHER CHANCE FOR. SANTA ANNAI
About six weeks ago we announced that
General Couourenr, aided by General Zu
-1,0141t, commander-In-chief, had effected a
new revolution in Mexico, of which he was
President, and had succeeded in obtaining
himself recognised as Dictator, with a power
of remodelling the Vonstiretion whenever it
suited his own convenience. In a word; this
was a coup d'ltet, in the fashion of ,those
effected by the two NA-someone; and. there can
scarcely be a- doubt that, having thus airs:

those not far declined in the vale' of kearkr
that AVOUSTIN /TritIIID)C, who mainly assisted
In Awing Mexico from the yoke of Aida, was,
proclaimed Emperor of Mexico, in Nay, 1822,
with hereditary smetession to his family—the
poWer of creating nobles—the right to Judi-
tote an Order of Knighthood, and all -the
.other Imperial accessories. Ile held this rank
for about ten months., and then abdicated,
being allowed a large yearly pension, on condi-
lien that he would expatriate himself. But,
Altera year's retirement, Irmoren returned to
Meiico, where he was executed as a public
enemy. •"At any rate, therefore, there . has
been an Emperor of Mexico in modem times,
so that Dictator COIfONIORT could have strictly
followed precedent:
The course of politics, like that of true love,
never yet ran smooth. Scarcely had Conon
/WIT been seated in the Dictator's chair, be
fore he began to experience this. Mexico, ho
bad hoped, would have unanimously submitted
to him, and, indeed, at first, whether influ
enced by fear or policy, the leading provinces
declared in his favor. Somehow'or other, the
Dictator offended the army. The troops;
under General Ztrx.omss., who had originally
shown much zeal in placing Common? in his
new position,. have turned against him, and
his authority is generally disputed, not only
in the city of. Mexico, the seat of Govern
saent, but in almost every part of th 6 coup.
try. The city itself is in a state of siege,
and severe ccinfilets had taken place be
tween COMONFORT'S adherents and the other
parties. In these, encounters, Comoaroar's
troops had generally been defeated. There
seems little chance that he can retain his To
anion.
For the sepreme power 'in Mexico, three
parties are actively agitating--Comosroar to
retain hie position, General Zutosos, backed
by a portion of the military, and, strange to
say, SAM% ARRA.
If the chapter of accidents should again
retie ANTONIO LOPEZ ox SANTA AldA to su
preme power in Mexico, there will indeed
be great cause for surprise. This man's whole
career has been such a series of uprising* and
downfalls that It may not be without interest
to allude to its leading points, more particular
ly as they are connected with the !past and
present of Mexico.
.Sonie thirty-six years ago, SANTA ANNA
then about ilve.and-twenty, took an active part
in eipelling the Royalists from Vera Cruz,
and was rewarded by being made Governor or
that city, whicb he retained until November,
1622, When ;ream; .tho Emperor,; removed

num, which eventuated in the abdication of
his ccimporls; Majesty." '4 4 he changes - which
'fbilowkid did not advance SLIFTA. Aina's am
bitious .views, and he retired into private life
for several years. He possessed a largo pri
vate fortune; and could afford to bide his'
time.
In 1828, be emerged from this obsaurity, to
espouse the interests of Elosunsno; the now
President, by whom be was appointed Com
mander-In-Cl:def. In this situation he showed
'some capacity, and, after various political
movements which it would be tedious to refer
to in detail, Suer.►• ANNA was elected Presi
dent, in 1888. This was the work of the
Array, the, popular opinion at large being
opposed to it. All along there was ,a double
distrust in Oleo mind of the Mexicans.--tirst,
that Serra Asa.► was Intriguing to tiring back
the Spanish dynasty, and, second, that he de
sired to revive the imperial dignity In his own
person. To declare himself. Dictator, as be
did, was scarcely the way to dissipate either
doubt.
Then came his Texas campaign, In which
he became a prisoner of war. He regained
hie liberty; returned to Mexico, and lost a leg
in the defence of Vera Cruz against the French,
in December, 1888.
The varying fortunes of this man were in
deed remarkable, for he was re-elected Presi
dent in 1841, and ruled with a strong hand and
firm mind, his will over-riding the law, until
1846, when another revolution overthew him.
His successors were unequal to the position,
and he was replaced in the presidential chair.
Then came the war with the United States, in
1846, which ended in his leaving Mexico in
the hands of the invaders. He was deprived
of, his command, but declared that, being
Magistrate of the Mexican Republic, the Se
nate had not the power to depose him. The
Mexican difficulties increased, aid ho resumed
chief military command in the campaign of
1847; and was routed. At last, early In 1848,
the war wee brought to a close, by treaty,
which annexed California to the United States.
Red the whole of Mexico been then subjected
to the same
. proceas, the result would have
been apparent, long since, in the improved
condition of the country. •
In 1847, SANTA ANNA was again proclaimed
President of Mexico, and continued such until
1860, when Geneial ARISTA, a Man of Pro
gress, in the best smute of the word, was elect
ed by a large majority. Axin& was devoting
himself to the 'imolai improvement of Mexico,
but the restless and intriguing spinit of SANTA
ANNA could not be kept within boiands, and it
contrived, in 1858, to depose President ARO.
TA. Having a strong party, SARrAt'ARRA suc
ceeded in obtaining his own recall, but con
ducted himself with so little prudence and so
much haughtiness, that his opponents united
against him, at last; and finding his personal
safety endangered—and believing, with Fal
staff, that the better part of Valor was Discre
tion--he literally stole out ofMexico, in 1855,
resigned his Presidency, and found au asylum
in Cuba, where he has since resided.
It is on the cards that SANTA ANNA should
again exercise supreme power in Mexico. But
a more unreliable mail does not exist. Lost
year, there wore reports, from Spain as well as
from Cuba, that he Lad given In his adhesion
to Queen Issuctad. of Spain—that he was to
head the army with which her comfit-devour
ing Majesty threatened to invade Mexleo—and
that, if the invasion watt successful, he was to ,
be appointed Governor of the re-annexed Spa
nish province of Mexico, with letters-patent
constituting him s Grandee of the first class In
Spain. Of a true man, there never would
have been such reports as these. Their tone
indicates the popular opinion of his want of
consistency and honor. Aa the Mexicans are
"constantly doing very strange things, perhaps
they may recall BANTA ANNA from cock-fight
ing at Oarthagetta to hold all but sovereign
sway ever a country which has twice cast him
out, a craven fugitive.

ment, and we are especially Might of drawing
an inference here, where the journals aro con
vulsed by the struggles of the hand-to-hand
contest of a partisan warfare. W'e have given,
we think very taithitilly, the spirit and temper
of quite a number of lengthy editorials:mode
rate, declamatory, and denunciatory. In our
office of portrayer of the splrit`of the Belgian
press, we could not overlook them, and, par
tial as the view is, we must leave It here till
we can give the opposite party an equally Im
partial hearing.
THE SQUABBLE ABOUT "THE TIBOI.
NIAZ4B.”
The public are aware that there it what Sir
Lanus O'Trigger would call " a very pretty
quarrel as it stands" between Messrs HAapsa, the
New York publiehers, and the New York Tribune.
The HARPERS gave $2,000 for the advance sheets
of TEAPEERAY'S new serial, by which means they
could publish it, if they pleased, about a week in
advance of the regular arrival of the work from
England. They have preferred keeplag ft back
for their Magazine, thereby giving any newspaper
a chance of anticipating them from an English
copy. The Tribune reprinted Part II." The Vir
&liana," in December, from an English copy, they
said, wbereae it certainly was from Harper's Ma
gazine itself, the editors of that variation having
made three alterations in the text, in order to
catch the Tribune, which was done.
To this, the Tribune says nothing, but it de
clares that the advance sheets of " the Virginians,"
im received from the author himself, and printed
in Harper's Magazine contain inaccuracies! It
air :
It is patent to every reader that any book
printed as this In London, under the lentnediate
supervision elite author, must be subject to various
alterations and emendations before it 1. finally
sent to press. Mr. Thackeray undoubtedly avails
himself of the opportunity of going frequently over
the proofs of his works fur this purpose, and hence
we find several corrections in our oopyof Part 111.,
which is the latest from the London press, not to
be found in Harper's Magagint for February.
These alterations could not be :waived by , the pub , .
Where of that periodical, simply beeline. they must
needs receive first proofs in order to get the story
Into their magazine, which is put to press two
weeks or more before its day of poblicatiol. Be
sides, the Messrs. Harper announce that they hold
themselves at liberty to make suck changes in Mr.
Paeketey'll own language as bey may deem
ieper. They also admit that They have made
each in the numbers they have hitherto published.
Thus, on every account, those who desire to read
the author's work untautilated ited with the final
touches of his pen will always secure tho latest
English copy, or read it in The Tribune, where it
will be found immediately on is receipt in this
country."
We do not see the force of ids last inference,
seeing that the Tribune has not yet cleared up the
little circumstance of its 'sprinting Part 11,
,4 errors included," from Harter, and not from an
English copy.
Whoever Is acquainted willn the wear and wor
rlt of producing a serial work, to appear on a cer
tain day, no matter what the mental or bodily eon
dition of the writer, must know that, very often,
the execution will be deferred, almost in despair,
to the latest possible moktent. In the preface
to " The Pickwick Papms," the author states
that the interval has ben so short between the
produotion of each number In manuscript and its
appearance in print, thet the greater portion of
the illustrations were °stetted by the artist from
the author's mere verbsidosaription of what he in
tended to write. The inthership, in fast, would
sometimes be pushed off to the latest possible mo
ment. We can fancy ZUCKER" under the spur
of HARPER'S $2,000, writing against thee to send
hie proof-sheets to New York, and as he went over
the mina., few daystater, putting in a word here,
or taklog out a line mere, to round off the sentence
or point the language. Whoever reprints " The
Virginians," in brek-farm here, will take oars,
we hope, and halo the composition done from an
English copy.

ing down the houses, and in others large Assures
ate opened in the ground. Out of these forty-six
places twenty are reported to here lost some portion
of their 'population • of one it is said, one hundred
&from 'have been t aken out ; of another, seventy;
and It is expected that three hundr edwill be
found; but of the amount of the disaster an alarm
ng ignorance is professed by such terms as these :
"Many victims, not all unburied;" f. Vast num
bers perished, the number not yet known ;"
"Great, but unknown, the number of victims." It
Is my opinion, therefore, that what have been called
I N
the a ' rations of the public much more nearly
appr
to the truth than the scanty and uncer
tain on:nation published in the official journal.
According to it 3,655 bodies have already been
dug out, a fearful number to think of, to which, if
We add the numbers so yet unknown, we shall
not be very much startled at the medium state
ment given of about 13,000 or 14,000 victims. The
first aorta made are to erect temporary wooden
buildings for the survivors. Men are employer
too in knocking down the falling Douses and in
burying the numerous dead. Care is also being
taken to disinfect those places where the dead
lay in the "greatest numbers. But all the exer
tions that can be Made will only tend to slightly
alleviate the misery which has been ooca
cloned by the fearful blow that has fallen upon
this unfortunate people. A general collection is to
b a opened for the falterer the sufferers, and another
will be made by the Englleh themselves. The cha
racter of the two awful shocks which were the
ocoasion of the disaster is thus described from Po
tensa, the capital' of Basilicata: They ware of
equal duration, and the first was preceded and
accompanied by a fearful eubterraneous thunder,
the same we observei in Naples. The sky was
serene and the air tranquil. The first was un
dulatory and ff suisultarle," that which followed
in about three minutes with , yet more violent
undulations and " sulasulti, ' was marked by
vertical and convulsive movements. The walls
wore thrown one over the other; heavy fur
niture was moved out of its place, or, as it were,
whirled round, while lighter articles and glass
were thrown to great distance. The effect of
the second shook• upon the houses may be ima
gined, during which the falling houses struck
one against another. The victims In Potensa
Beam to have been among the poorer classes, who,
having retired to rest, had no time to escape. The
Intendant, Signor Rossioa, who escaped In his shirt,
seems to have been most meritorious . native.
Those who remained alive after the un derground
thunders and the shooks, says the journal, con
sidered themselves rather to have been born again
than preserved. It would be tedious to give you
the fresh detalie which have just been brought in
since the commencement of this latter. They are
represented to be of ever-increasing gravity, and
the names of many other places damaged are
given. On the 25th the flOtlftlii :woad had been
sent to dwells of destruction, and on the 28th three
other persons, to disinter and disinfect. From
Gaeta had been dovetailed two hundred soldiers of
the 7th of the line and two hundred pioneers, but
the movement was late. From the hospital 2,600
military tents have been despatobed, and great
quantities of materials for braiding, and of food.
It Is to be hoped, therefore, that though more des
patch might have been used in the first instance,
and more energy inspired by the presence of a
member of the royal family, the wants of the inf
orms will be tam porarily provided for.

Governor VlllltUrrl, of Nuevo Leon and Coahuila,

milling his people to arms in support of the Consti

to the new order of tbingn, and civil war seemed
inevitable. In the meantime General Moreno
stood faithful, and the Ftogof the 13th, letentdate,
records the following:
" We learn from a private sonroo that a schooner
arrived off Orates Santiago with troops from Tam
pico, sent by orders of General Moreno. Its com
mander Is said to have sent a despatch to Colonel
Garcia, of 'Matamoros, tolling him to evacuate that
port, or he would immediately compel him to do

from a gentleman who liven le Matamoros, and
was believed by him to be tree."
• We cannot but hope thin will prove untrue. It
in quite certain, however, that troops are , being
collided at Monterey and elecwhere, In large num

bloody civil war in northern as well as central and
southern Mexico, must ensue.

STrDTING 0111701'1%—M/2N an officer was pas:-
log along a by-street, in the First ward, be beard
an indescribable and unaccountable noise proceed
ing from a vacant lot, occupying a central position
among numerous back-yards, pigpens, cow-sta
bles, ie. The M. P., with some difficulty, made
his way into this unsavory locality, and there dis
covered a man in a shabby black suit, who ap
peared by his motions and gestures to be delivering
a speech, though his words were untlietlagaiihable,
seeming to belong to some
,language whio might
be a mixture of Cherokee and Low Dutch. tie
had succeeded in gaining the attention of some of
the pigs in the neighboring pens, who poked their
long faces through the bars and apparently lis
tened to the orator with grave and respectful at
tention.
The back of the mysterious speaker was tuned
towards the officer, who approached without being
discovered, and, slapping the orator on his back to
awaken his attention, inquired "What the deuce
are you spouting here for?" To the policeman's
great astonishment. the oratorical gentleman
immediately became convulsed, being evidently
choked, and, after a good deal of gasping and
spluttering he ejected from his mouth several
pebble-stones, about as large as sparrow's eggs,
and then appeared to be relieved. In answer to
the officer's repeated question, "What are you
about ?" the disturbed speaker answered with
ill-concealed rage—
" I'm coo-coo-qualifying myself for a pu-pu
public speaker, and I've go•go-got a slight Imp*•
pe-pediment in my ape- ee-oh, so I pa-pa-put stones
In my mouth to corre-es-ect "
"Yen put stones in your mouth to make you
speak plain, eh?" said the officer; "that's a very
likely story, Indeed. Did anybody besides your
self ever think of snob a thing ?"
"Ye ye-yes," answered the student of elocu•
don; "Ire-re-reckon De-de-Demosthenes tried the
same dodge. Go stn-n-uttered as much as I do
myself, be-a-a-but by keeping his mouth full of er
er-er-rooks, be 'come to be the gr-a-a-greatest
orator in Greece."
"I should think it took a good deal of grouse
to make the hinges of his jaw. work easy," re
plied the officer ; •' but as for them 'bees, and all
that sort of gammon, I does'nt believe a word of
it; and as you cant tell a straight story, I'll have
to pull you before the mayor. You see these poor
dumb orators (pointing to the pigs) cant eat their
Tittles in peace, on account of the disturbance
you've been ratting."
The elocutionist endeavored to stammer forth
further explanations, bat the resolute officer mere
ly answered:
"Well, well, if there is ouch a fellow as this Mr.
tilmtnostheneyes that you talk about, let him come
before the mayor and go security for your good be
havior, If he likes, and I shan't make no objec
tions."
On his appearance at tho bar, the student of elo
quence. Mr. George V. Parsons, promised to carry
on his studios in a more retired locality, according
to tho example of his great model, Demosthenes,
who did all his. preparatory spouting in a lonely
cave on the sea-shore. Easing given this requi
red promise, Mr. Parsons was discharged.
In Baltimore, on Tuesday morning, John
Conrad Haman, a German, residing with his
family at the southeast corner of Light and Church
streets, Federal Hill, committed suicide in the
bedroom of his dwelling, by shooting himself in

Death of the Rev. 'William Rantsey D. D.—
This distinguished clergyman, who fei La twenty
years oikeisted inoonneotion with the C r-strat
Presbyterian Church , disci on Tuesday wonting,
In the fifty-fifth year of his age. As s minister
of the Gospel and as a man, he received during
his life the most flattering marble( esteem and ap
preciation from his congregation, and his terY large
circliof Mende, and his dams' has lath a void la
many a heart. The Rev. Dr. was bosn_itt Jeniata
county, in this State, and evincing_bOth talent
and taste for the ministry, he studied the
oleo at Princeton, New Jersey. After leaving
college, he came to this city and preached In the
church' on Second street, below Christian. But,
with an eager and burning desire to accomplish
the greatest possible good, and utterly regardless
of tolls and trials, he engaged In the service of the
American Board of Commimionare for Porde
Missions, and started for India. where, for four
yeses, be preached the Gospel. .Nor Tenth* trial
slight, for the wife and an only son of the zealous
clergyman were left in thst far-off °lima and ba
iled thousands of miles from their kindred and
their friends. Dr. Ramsey Mauna' to this gay,
and then assumed, as we have before stated, the
charge of the Cedar-Areal Prethytarian Church.
Tba decline of the Rev. Dr. was swift. About
Aileen months ago his health began first to fail,
and in the hope of gaining improvement, and by
the advice of his physicians, be started for the
South. MS stay there was but of six sternths'
ration, and on his return, he nailed for the lass
time his native place, In Janiate. oonnty.l Bat his
health continued to Dal, and he died en •Tusedav,
In the full pow:Edon of his &statism, in the hope
of a glorious resurrection. The Rev. Dr. Ramsey
leaves two daughters, and a large number of rela
tives, to mourn this dispensation of Dille Provi
dence.
The Ise Crop.—Last year at this time the ice

which Is used in this atty. It would be a very se
rious calamity if our ice crop wen to be est off
though there is probably some months' supply left in
the principal ice-houses from last, winters hawed.
We are now in the last week of January , and no
lee bee been made yet in our neighborhood. There
remains but one weak more in which we may antici
pate any freezing cold weather, for, after Abe Ist of
February, the weather is rarely so intensely cold se
to form solid lee. The days are then gravies longer,
and a abort reason of cold is generally followed by
a warm spell. The *pen winter, however; thus far,
his been ereeedingly favorable for all kinds of
outdoor 'work. In the rural districts ploughing
his been minim' on quite extensively. The roads
have continued quite good for the season, and have
not been tut up to any extant. Wood piles have
been able to sustain the assaults of winter much
better than usual; and in this respect, as well as
many others, the mildness of the heath's has been
en inestimable blessing to the poor whose hard
ships daring a severe winter, combined with the
pressure of the times, would have been extreme.
Relief of use Poor.—Tho Relief Committee
of the Provident Society of the Nineteenth Ward
has been quietly at work distributing it charities.
So great is the destitution in that ward. that upon
Saturday, their day of giving relief, their store
house is really besieged by those who seek relief.
The following statistics from their record show
what good can be done by those who desire to aid
their en:liming brethren : They have distributed of
pork and other meat, 1,191.1ta; codfish, 1,700 lb*:
Indian meal, 0,300 lbs; flour, 1,764 lbs; Ace, 659
lb.; beans, 3d bushels; ooal in small want:Wee, 6
tons;
wood in small quantities, 1 cord. Relief was
granted to 2,011 hoods of families, comprising 9,290
souls. Tho society meets on Thursday evening, at
the school rooms, Frankford road and Wood street,
to concert measures to continue their roller, and
unless the benevolent come to their aid they will
be compelled to owe their work for want of means,
their treasury being now in debt.
Sired Nomenelaturt.—The discussion of the
ordiusnee on this subject was commenced in Select
Council chamber on Tuesday afternoon, after en
Ineffeatual attemot was made to postpone the bill.
The disouselon will be resumed in that body at the
meeting this afternoon. Oar readers, we think,
understand that this ordinaries provides for some
very important modification In the nams a of streets,
lanes, alleys, Le., in different parts of. the city.
We shall endeavor at an early day to present a
statement exhibiting, in as brief a space as pearl
ble, the most important of the changes which may
be made.
Both branches of City Councils will meet at
three o'clock this afternoon. In Cosmos, Connell
the report of the Finance Committee, published in
Tee Passe of yesterday, which recommends
81 as the rate of tuition for the prorate
rear, will no doubt be made the eatlact of an in
teresting discussion In Select Chamber, the bill
relative to street nomenclature hu been made
