It becomes our painful duty to an
nounce to the public the death of Jamkb
H. Davis Eq. He departed this life
at his residence in the town of Quint-
ans on Monday the 24th of August last
in the 27th year of his age. His sick-
ness was short; but was of a character
sonolcut and so obstinate tht.1 it seoni-
edflo bid defiance to every medical aid
though procured as early as possible
after the commencement of ins disease.
The death of but few of our citizens
U
w
onld have been so generally felt or so
deeply regretted as that of Mr. Davis.
Endowed by nature with a mind sus.
j ceptible of the highest improvement
i . . '
and inspired with a laudable ambition
. . . . . .
i he had by untiring industry reached an
eminence as a scholar which has been
attained by but few of his age and we

and his exalted moral standing neve:''
failed to procure the respect and cstcrai
of those who formed but a transient ac
qnamtance with him. And we can
safely assert that in consequence of his
uniformly upright and benevolent
course in life no young man ever atetl
leaving behind him fewer enemies or a
widerextended circleof devoted friends

On readers should bear in mind that
the papers from which we extract are
all Centrd Journals mostly established
by the usurpers in office. No commu-
nication -lias yet reached the Central
napers mention the documents that are
issued bv the revolutionists.
The Mexican Government Diaro of j
t e 2oth July officially announces that
the Proclamalion of the Federal leader
Farias issued the day previous is not
true in its statement that the Central
troops are not willing In fight fur the
Government. Farias stateo that "they
merely intend to maintain their poi
ti in line and are averse and cannn'
be forced to storm tha advocates of the
Constitution '24. This the (ioveru-
ment naper denies and avers that the
regular troops are not only brave but
are ready for the conflict
According to the Central prints every
section of the Republic is preparing to
p0Ur - troops for the rescue of the Ca-
uuiii ll. nulled .;. .law .v..?.i. wi uitj VU
pjtai from th3 hands of the insurgents
Peubla sent a detachment another
bad arrived from 1 abuca all the troops
at Michoncan were proceeding with
farced marches Guudaloupe Victoria
was proceeding with all his dispcmaulp
forco from Vora Cruz. Col. Carta7ar
with 400 infantry and 200 horse wus
pressing on from Leon Santa Anna wus
using all his influence and means to en-
list two regiments near Peubla and
was to push for the capital as soon as
be could embody his men.
We gather from all accounts we have
had that the utmost enthusiasm pre
vails among the patriotic insurgents
who are within the walls of Mexico.
One ol the papers states that they use
the papers in tho deposjteircheives to
make cartridges and then fire lhem the
usurpers; themselves. The civic mili
tia appear to side with them almost tin
anitnously. And such are the fears of
(tiistatuentc and his brother usurpers
that secret orders have already been is-
J sed 0 commandants of detachments

they should be attacked by a forco out

danger to my life wljich threatened
through the attack of the inso eut per
sons who as preteudcdicommi-jsiriiiers
demand of me to surrender I drew my j
sword in defence ;md notified them I
was resolved to die rather th m suffer
such an outrage on mv perso i. The
commissioners then ordered tn troops
to fire on me but the troops vv dd not

Palace and hostilities raging in the
centre of the Capital the ieader-of the
revolt became alarmed the horrors of
the scene and the inevitable destruc
Hon of property (with their attempts on
my life) they feared would raise tho
citizens against them.
Ti-ey then sent commissioners into
the saloon whore I was confined and
proposed to me to second their plans or
in other words that I would sanction j
what they had done.-Ali which I resist- j
"J

I would sumier die Hiau prove a traitor
to mv nam and duty; and that I re
nounced liberty if it could (not be ob-
tained without surrendering the dignity
ot the post I held and my previous re-
putation offering them solely tiiat I
would strive to lessen the flow of blood
and the other evils of war. Various
were the promises which they made me
if I would iigree to their proposals but
was firm in my position and the reso-
lution I had formed to perish sooner
than prove a traitor to my duly- I re-
sisted always with the firmness and en-
ergy becoitung a chief magistrate and
a soldier who does not fear death. Not
withstanding all this they permitted
me to reine from the palace with an
escort which 1 s leered Irom the lt re-

From the proclamation of the Gover-

that CUV was threatened by insurrection
and popular commotions. Tho Federal
army from Yucatan was advancing up.
