ed in Campeachy. We have not room
for the letter, but we are more con,
tent to omit its publication, as we
never gave credit TO the principal
charge which it is intended to refutc
namely: that the ex President was de.
termined to re.establish his power in
Mexico by the aid of foreign bayon-
cts. On the contrary, we have all
along believed that Santa Anna would
be the first to take advantage Of Eu-
ropean interference in Mexican af.
fairs, and by opposing it, attempt to
reinstate himself: not that the ty1ant
would scruple one moment TO avow
any cause, join any party, Q: raise any
cry by which he thought he could at

kind, and thinks majority of his
countrymen would rebel against any
plan of subjecting them to the tram
mels of a monarchy.


The manifesto also replies 10 some
charges brought against him by a pa
perrin Cadiz last October. With these
we have no concern; but we rather
regret that we cannot to day give his
Excellency the entire benefit Of his
manifesto, by publishing the same.
