Monterey is the capital of the state of Nuevo Leon which borders the state of Tamaulipas and the state of Coahuila and Texas. Concerning a pamphlet from Jacobo Amat, printed in the city of Victoria, capital of Tamaulipas, that was received on November 12th. This printing intimates that Amat's pamphlet was a complete construct by Santa Anna, meant to coerce and intimidate. This imprint protests the actions of Santa Anna and gives news of the September 1828 presidential elections. In the election, in which the state legislatures voted for president, Manuel Gomez Pedraza seemed to have defeated Vicente Guerrero, but with the support of Santa Anna who supported Guerrero, Pedraza gave in and Guerrero became president with Carlos Maria Bustamante as his Vice President. Very lightly toned and untrimmed.
