This cori)s was defeated by Hidalgo and Allende, on the 30th of October, at Las Cruces, a pass in the chain of mountains which separates the valley of Mexico from that of Toluca, m licrc l>ux- MEXICO IN 1827. 169 illo had taken up a position. The only remarka- ble circumstance that took place during the action was the fact of an insurgent officer, with a flag of truce, having been encouraged by Trtixillo to ap- proach his lines until he came close to the ranks, when a general discharge was orde...red, by wliich he was killed, with those who accompanied him. This act of treachery was boasted of by Truxillo in his official report of the engagement, and approved by the Viceroy, who thus gave his sanction to the prin- ciple, that none of the ordinary rules of war were to be observed with the Insurgents. Venegas, however, was so much alarmed at their success and near ap- proach, that he had again recourse to the supersti- tion of the people, as the best method of preserving tranquillity. The image of the Virgin of los Reme- dios was brought in great jjomp, from a little vil- lage where it was usually kept, to the Cathedral of the Cajiital, where Venegas went in full uniform to pay his respects to it ; and, after imploring the Virgin to take the Government into her own hands, terminated his pathetic appeal to her by laying at lier feet his staff of command.
