By. letter publiahfd below, from the Bul
letin Board of the Merchant*’ Exchange, it
ill be seen that the new* of the liberation
of Santo Ana hat reached Mexico, and it
greeted with public expressions of joy and
satisfaction, too derided in tneir chArueter to
leave «ny further doubt at to the reception
be will meet with upon hit arrival ut home.
He it to be received at tho virtual head of
the nation and will no doubt continue to ex
ercise the tame authority on the c( untry
which belonged iu him nrior to hit late re*
vertea in Texat. What, it U naked, will be
the course he will pit.sue ? Will he be for
LVmruluitu, Ropublicnnittn or Despotism.
These ere <|ue«tiont which time eloue can
answer, but for tiro tultliion of which we
•ball look with much impatience. Our tn*
lieitudr* however, will no» be long, for already
no doubt, the cbiefiau i« on the oceau, and
toon will be wafted to tho snores whore pow
er nnd supremacy await him. Saute A
mtret return the avowed advocate if not the
friend of Tcxitui Imlependcnro, and whether
the Mexican people wj|| it or nut, his oath,
bis honor and perhapthis political safety are
pledged to support it. Trercherou* as he
•nav have been Heretofore, the lessons hia
misfortune* have ’aught him the obligations
be is under to Texns, and the solemn guar-
anices-lie lias doubtles a oHercd nr Washing
ton. will compel him lor once in suite of him*
self t»# he luiibluL Can he maintain his auth
ority nnd bo the friend of Texas! Judging by
the accounts teceived. we would readily pre
sume,he may. The unlimited sway lie for
merly poMsrssnd must m a great measure be
resumed, Bustiimentc is not in bis w«y and
if he where, Santa Atta who has once van
quished him, and would not fuil to elfect it
again, weak, silly and cowi rtlly assume
would hnve him *t.» be. Wo are charged
with inconsistency because we grant him
talent and the skill l6 govern the Mexican
people. Yet we acknowledge not the ju*t-
ne-s of the accusathiu. We have branded
him a* u murderer; an artful treacherous
mart, who would strike yoli .o tho vimls os
he ainiied in your face ; but subtile address,
real ability, and a genuine in*ight into the
Me xicun churucier, wo liuve ulways allowed
him.
Hi* history accords to him the possession
of it, else how had lie been able to act so dis
tinguished a purl in the ..flair* of hi* country
for veur' past. His lame fur military valor
and generalship cannot be wholly the result
of accident. He did not surely stumble upou
all his successes, as Wellington is said to
hnue cone at Waterloo, by pure mistake.—
Such a result would indeed be without an
alogy, but also without thebounda of possi
bility. But wears digressing widely from
our purpose, and return to our contemplation
of “Richard himself again.’’ Beside
mente, Santa Anna has no rival to lea', and
once mure in favor, and he must be ao fur
the remainder, ut lean, of his time he will
take care tn fortify himself aguinat on over
throw, and may if he pleaae demand from
the Mexican people the recognition of Texas
us n separate government. He would perhaps
ri»k something in making the requisition, na-
tionul pride suing by defeat, might murmur,
and I lie diKatVecird loudly exclaim ; but to
bruve these will be wiser that to incur the
enmity of Texas, lie has tried ami expa-
rienceri her mural •uperioritv, und would
have just reason to fear that her heroic ar
mies indignant nt his luitlilegmens, would
bend their victorious course toward the an
cient empire of the Mont^xuinns, and wrest
from him amid the ruins of hi* own power,
the acknowledgement of their freedom. Such
n thing is ud impossible. The Texinns
themselves believe, a tier testing repeatedly
the moral cuuruge of the Aiexicans, that
with an army of seven or eight thousand,
they could pluct; their banner upon the walls
of Mexico, uml dictate luws to the whole na
tion. For the attempt however there will
lie no Beat!. Hanta Anna we believe will
acknowledge their independence a* soon us
lie can, and leave them to govern them
selves. How bo may wish to rule the bnl-
ance ol Mexico, we ate um doterinined. Ho
may be for i’eimaltain, or not; but after the
clipping which the wing* of his ambition
Utlve just receive-.I, he will never again at
tempt to soar so high as formerly, but con
tent ! imvHf with a ('6nstitoliunal Knpretna-
cy—the Presidency of a Federal Republic.
VERA CRUZ, Jan. W, 1837.
Sir—my Inst accounts, under dute of the
•kl inst. informed you that the Californiuns
had seceded (run the general government,
since when I have received intelligence from
the Consul of the United State*, at the cap
ital, (City of Mexico,) con‘.inning the insur
rection in that province.
It is also declared that Peru bod declared
war against Chili.
ItitclligeticH having been conveyed to the
capital timt General Santo Ann was liber
ated, and was on bis way to ihu City of
Washington, U. S. an order from the Su
preme Government was immediately made
to the. authorities nt this place, to receive his
F.xcljrncy, in the event of his landing at
Vent Cruz, with all the honors due to him
as President liflhe Republic.
The national ilag, which had been kept et
half mast since IHh capture at St, Jactmo. L
now restored tn its usual position. Three
days of festivity and general rej ariog have
likewise beau bad on the occasionol tlie late
news.
It is reported also that Gen. Santa Anon
will arrive ut Vern Cruz about the middle of
February, and that In* will be appointed im
mediately to the Presidency.
Two other candidate* uic also spoken o r ,
viz: Parris nud Bravo, neither of whom it
is believed i au exjrccl to be elected. Gen.
Businmeiite, who probably would have been
fixed upon for the otfico had Santa Ann not
been liln-rand, now declines nomination.—
lie had n ndered his sword In the govern
ment. for (lie prosecution of tlie opcruiinu u-
gnit si Texas, which so fur ax the navy is
concerned, are lor the present suspended ; in
fact the wheelsnfgovernment are completely
ut u stand, awaiting (lie arrival and dictation
of the executive.
The authorities appeared lo wish to with
hold from the public ull knowledge of its
features under the apprehension, as supposed
that it will bo entirely remodelled by Geu.
Santa Ana on hi* arrival.
There are various conjectures in regard to
the political course tlirt will be pursued by
Sai’Ut Ana on resuming the reign* of govern
ment. It is believed by some that ho may
endeavor to strengthen his party by nailing
the liberal nnd centralis:®, under a inonarvli-
ical government, while others contend that
the central *v*lem will be maintuiueddn full
force and vixori a tbitd party is willing to be
lieve that the federal government will be re-e»-
tub isbed of which Texu* is to lie admitted ax
an integral pan—a fourth parly it apprehen
sive that he may enter into u compact with
'Texas under the guarantee of the Uuiied
Suites* government to acknowledge it a inde
pendence and ro-eatublifch ilia Constitution
of 18*34. now deiiittl by x njuyrUy of tbe
