The new Congress meets at Queretaro
In January. A portion ot‘"Gcn. Butler's
train had arrived in the city of Mexico.—
A party of nine who had started from the
train. to join the advance, were attacked in
the mountains by a party of robbers. One
of them, a phystcian. fell into the hands of
the Mexicans. but they. discovering {rem
his medicines that he was a doctor. let him
go.& he arrived safe at Ayotia. He states
that he heard ahots fired. but saw nothing
of the men of his party. As they were
well armed. however. there is little doubt
but that they escaped.
The following is extracted from the J?-

"This change of things must have been

they are disposed to make reparation to the
