to send 10000 men Immediately to the frontier of
Texas Where these men were to be raised is poser of
itself, but where the to procure money enough
oven to start them such FOOLS errand is great

the action OF the Chambers, especially those of the Un

This indicates clearly enough that Mexico has not yet
determined what line Of policy to pursue towards
The country is distracted by divisions amongst its
leading politicians and military men, that the Govern

not think it necessary to occupy ourselves with its de-
tails The Committee on Military affairs in the House
have also reported plan for the complete organiza-
ton of the regular army b.t this too has not yet
ceived the sanction Of Congress. 1t is apparent never

The papers full details the plan of this revo.
luton but we have given them all substantially before
appears that good number of military officers and
public officials could not be seduced into the scheme and

had secreted himself. From his concealment he ad.
dressed communication to the Executive stating his
readiness to enter upon his du ties Senator and de-
string that day might be appointed for him to take the
necessary oaths The appropriate Minister transmitted
this to the Senate informing them that the Executive
Government had issued orders for the arrest Of Senior

the attempt OF the 7h and that il should sue
ceed in securing him. he would be placed at the dspo
son of the Grand Jury taking that he should be
guarded with all due consideration.

the Senate proceeded to supply the place Of senor Fa
Senior Quntana Roo. The Sigio of the 27th says that
Senior Farias still remained in his concealment
