The New Orleans Picayune Of the 10Th rlt.
says-By the way of Havana we have dates from
Vera Cruz and Mexico as late as we have received
direct. We motto in our files some few Items o
information which we do not recolIect to have
seen before. On the 3Oth of December SAINT;
Anna was at Ayotla, small village short dis
tance this side of the capital. 1t will be recol
lected that the latest communication from him I,
the Government was dated at Huehuetoca, Dec
26th. The change of position is thought to strentI,
en- an impression previously entertained that

tai, which the letter writer's appear to think inf
table, to force bis way to Vera Cruz, thenf to
escape by sea when he finds the game is ! up
with him.


A private letter from the city of MeSo, re-
ceived at Havana, and dated the 2Sth Ds, states
that tho force under Santa Anna exces 10000

l2,O00 are regular troops and s,OOge'ong to the
National Guard. Many familief had left and

Ia the decree of tye Goth Dec, by which Con
gress authorised te Government to declare th'
capital in staggof siege, the power of Gems
Herrera and BrITo to enter into any arrangemen
with Santa ANA, is limited in measure lni
the let,ey writer's think, indicates that thee two
