Ne,u Orleans, June 9

Ne,c Orleans, June II.
By the schooner Dorchester, Capt. Salvi,
from Vera Cruz, we learn that the cholera
had not then appeared there, but IN its stead
yellow fever was very fatal Vessels from
other ports suspected of having cholera on
board, were put under quarantine. As yet,
we have no papers by this arrival.
The very interesting extracts of letters fol-
lowing, to gentlemen in New Orleans, have
been kindly communicated for the Bulletin
Both are dated the 18th inst.-Nat. Int.
Ert,nct Of a letter, dated Vera Cruz, June
18th.
"a disturbance having taken place on the
Both ul.. in the neighborhood of Mexico, the
President, Gen. Santa Anna, left the city
with small division to qucll it. A few
days subsequently the troops declared
against the Government, and placed Santa
Anna under arrest; at the same time the Of
hcers concerned in the conspiracy publish
ed that he was at their head, and that he d.
rected their movements. 1t was generally
believed, and we anticipated the procama-
ton Of cenralism. Fortunately one of his
Iaids-de-camp escaped, and informed the Vice
President that Santa Anna was really pri-
soner, and not concerned in the revolution,
declaring that he would rather suffer death
than prove a traitor to his country. This
caused the people to rise en- masse, and al
though the rebellion party threatened Mex
CO and Puebla, they did not succeed. Both
places were well prepared to resist; mean
time no information being receiv I'd from
Santa Anna. the business became verv mys-
FERROUS, and great doubts were generally en-
tertained yesterday at midday, when an ex-
press arrived from Puebla, bringing the well
come information, that he had escaped from
those who pretended to proclaim him Dicta-
tor, and kept him prisoner; that he was
not concerned in the rebellion, and had es-
capped only with one officer of the guard
placed over his person. In Puebia there
was strong force, of which he will now
take the command. This revolution may.
therefore, be considered at an end, and we
presume measures will be taken to secure
tranquility on firm basis.''
Extract Of another letter, from a gentleman
IN Vera Cruz to a friend in this city, dated
18th Of June.
''Business here is very dull The yellow
fever has carried off about one-eighth of the
population of this place within forty days,
ending the 10th inst. have lost my conf
Dental clerk, and Mr.. F. w. Stone is also
among the victims. The cholera is shock
ing bad at the two Tampicos, and we fear it
will ere long visit us. There has been ano-
Their revolution attempted in the interior, but
it is so nearly smothered as to cause no
fears. Energy pervades every department
OF the Government, and the States are all in
arms to support it. This crusade will end
like all others, in disaster to the party that
got it up. Santa Anna was betrayed, and
made prisoner by Arista, but escaped. A
death blow will now be given to the Priests
and Gauchupins, as we'll as their friends;
many have been seized and made prisoners;
among them are numbered Terrain Fontula
and Admiranti, and of the Mexicans, Ra-
mera Serena and Morand. (extendi of We
rancas,) &c. Depend upon it all is safe,
and it will make the Government stronger
and more respected"
