Description -   This broadside gives an account of the government’s discovery of a plot by supporters of the Polkos Revolt in the state of Jalisco. The broadside accuses a number of high-ranking Jalisco officials, including the governor, of involvement in the plot, and describes its financial connections to the Catholic Church. The author labels the conspirators as "monarchists" and links them to the deposed president Mariano Paredes y Arrillaga.
