Richmond Enquirer

The Orleans Gazette details the particulars of an arrival at the Sabine of 4 men taken about 14 months previous, by the detachment under the command of Enrique Peus. They state that all the Americans taken at that time, are now at liberty. The rest, about 20 in number together with a number of other Americans, some of whom were taken in the former expedition and some with Mina, were waiting for a guard to come in with, and would probably reach the U. S. in a few weeks. All of Mina's officers above the rank of Captain, were put to death, and Mina was killed on the field. They suffered every hardship; were handcuffed two and two, a rope extended between them and fastened to a mule's tail, and in that manner drove 700 miles, with a short allowance of provisions, &c. They had been imprisoned until the 5th of Aug. last, at Mount Te Ray.....The Constitution of the Cortes had partially been adopted. Persons were now permitted to pass and repass without passports.
