It is ludicrous to com- pare the two accounts, which wo presume to be about equally veracious, i : Hostilities have spread over the peninsula, the difler- ent cities taking different sides io the contest going on. We judge that the advocates of an entire separation from Mexico are in the ascendant; but we look with groat juspicien upon the profession of the inhabitants of Yuc: tan, of whatever party—more especially when they act underthe immediate pressure of the presence of the U. 3 squadron. (From the New Orleans Timos, Jan 37} By the arrival of the Yucatan schooner Primera Cam- peacheana, from Campeachy, wo have received late in- telligence from the peninsula of Yucatan. The Yuce- fareso have entirely thrown off the Mexican yoke, and re-established the form of government adopted by them ov the 3ist March, 1841, at the period of the first separa. tion.

The present go- vernor is allowed fifteen days to reflect whether he will adopt this plan of government or not. In the interim, Don Domingo Barret is charged with the task of urging forward thia plan to consummation. The Yucatanese, in their pronunciamento, say thet tho re union of Mexico and Yucatan, under present cizcumstances, is of no uti- lity to the former, and of great evil to the latter; but the timd may arri en the incorporation may aguiu take plac Te nothing e traordinary hasten that event, it i jecreed that a Congress be expressly convoked to it into considerationon the Ist of April, 1819. ‘This Congress to bo composed of five deputies chosen from five in all.

The authorities would not bin @ possport to proceed to Parras, but gave him one to Zacatecas; with this he made a forced ride, and arrived ia safety at Gen. Wool’s camp at Parras.
