For six months, at least, it has been currently re- ported that Santa Anna was immediately to return to upset the government ; and, for six months, nothing has been overturned but these same rumors. Now, the fae is,no one has had any authority for making these assertions, and those who have given them currency have epoken in true Mexican style, more by their wishes than | by therr knowledge.

Ifunsuccessful, General Santa Anna will meet the fate he has premediteted for his bitter ewemy and rival. } In a former article, we stated that General Arista was elmost the sole government # this time ; and this may need eome illustration — It is true, that he is officially known ealy as Minister of War and Marine, while Lacunza is Minister of Relations, Arrengois of Finances, and other ministers of etate, of the interior, and of jus- tice. And it must net be forgotten, ethough it secms to be £0 in Mexico, that Gen.

Lacunza has some talent for business; but, unfortunately, he never wae engaged an di- plomacy, and is altogether anew man, who will have to lean on some one better informed.

His opinion im the cabinet is decisive, and elsewhere his word is law. In one day he struck off the names of 1,400 offi- cers from active service on the army list and dis- banded regiments.
