Arrival of the AraO-Santa An a. Admission AT
Vera Tuz-COnfinemen OF Paroles ut Perote
New PrOnunciamCntO for Paroles.
The British steamship Arab arrived of the Balze the
night Of Wednesday last, tho 9th inst, having lct Vera
Cruz Oh the afternoon OF the 81 inst, at 1 O'Clock. The
Arab, u will be remembered vas the vessel which con-
vcycd Santa Ana % Vera Cruz. She got aground al the
Pass 10 eight feet water, but II was supposed would easily
be go; I'll. She IS expected TO come up 20 tho city this
morning, whore she Is to undergo some slight repairs.-
She encountered very rough weather on her passage hithcr
and proved herself a fine sea boat. The British sloop Of
war Daring arrived 1t Vera Cruz on the "a inst, from tho
Blize. We learn from a commercial house that the Arab
lett Vera Cruz at short notice, and few letters or papers
we're received by her.
The most important news by the Arab touches the ar
val Of SAINTS Ana tVora Cruz. On this point we arg ablc
10 speak upon the authority OF Mr. O'NeL. one Of the own
era Of the Arab, who made the voyage from Havana with
Santa Ana. The General had previously assured Mr..
ONclI fhatflcrg would be no occasion 20 run tho blockade
thai the vessel would be allowed TO enter without any
difficulty. When tho Arab arrived Oh Vera Cruz, they de-.
scuCd the ST. Mary'B and ihc Arab Immediately bore 90 for
her. The 81. Mary's sent a boat 20 the Arab, with the first
Lieutenant on board. Upon reaching hof he encountered
Gen. Almonio, whom b. recognized, with whom he e1-
changed sau'auors. BY Con. AlmOutc the lieutenant was
conducted 10 Gen. Santa Ana, who was lying in his birti,
quite i. Then short Interview took place, and whom iho
Lieutenant feappoafed ON deck, he gaze 10 the otoasTs py.
mission ~ pass he b0ekads.
An account received by a commercial house represents
that the suite OF 5anta Ana cginccd much emotion end even

iscIy calm, aud apparently expected the visit ltr further
added that the General delivered "a letter o. the officer who
boarded the boat which produced ut once tho desired Of
feet.
Recurring again To- Mr. O'N,irs communication 10 U.S.

learn That when Sina Ana landed, be- vas received but by
% few frcnds-uat tho reception wss not o. public one, and
that 30 was not marked by much onthusiasfn. Santa Ana
