The New Orleans Picayune has papers from the
city of Mexico down to the lst instant. From its
notice of their contents we learn that SANTA ANNA
was at Orizaba, diligently engaged in raising troops
and granting permits to guerrilla bands. He was
supposed to have recruited an army pretty consider
able in numbers, though very inferior in discipline.
On the 22d of April he addressed letter to the
Substitute President of Mexico, in which he en-
treats him not to despair, nor to make treaty with
the United States but to defend the capital, Not
withstanding the evident dissatisfaction felt with
him by many of his countrymen, the Supreme Go
vernment has confirmed him in the command of the
army by express orders. The necessity of such
an order indicates that his authority had been Sc
verely shaken. 1t is stated that the Substitute Pre-
sident shows good deal more apathy than is ac-
ceptable to the Editors of Ei RepubRcano. They
appeal to him to arouse himself and call forth the
energies of the nation 10 meet the crisis. They
denounce as cowardy and Infamous any course
other than war, and long toar. Those who are
suspected of more peaceabe views denounced
in no measured terms. 1t is only, indeed, by these
denunciatons that discover that there any
party whatever Peace has organ in Mexico.
