DeiVallle, from Havana, we have received the
Mexican news taken there by the British mail
steamer Dee, from Vera Cruz, The dates BY
this conveyance are to the 10Th ult from Mex
leo, and Isl inst. from Vera Cruz-being from :
thejormeS place seventeen days, and from the
latter fourteen days, later than previous ac-
counts.
The most important portion Of the news is
that communicated to US verbally by Captain
Delvallle, Of whose v%eracity we have nrdoubt.
He says that Santa Anna, having heard Of the
PronunciameDto at Vera Cruz in his favor, and
agreeably to previous arrangements, o doubt,
lett Havana in the British steamship Moutezu-
ma. on the evening Of the OH inst, for Vera
Cruz, accompanied by the whole Of his suite.
On the day Of the departure OF the steamer
the city OF Vera Cruz, with all thetroops and
Castle Of ST. Juan de Ulua, had pronounced in
favor of General santa Anna, and his portrait
was triumphanlly promenaded in the streets
and public places, with acClamatious from
every quarter.
Gen. Bravo, who was appointed Vice Presi.
dent at the first meeting of Congress, sent in
his resignation on the 18th ult., stating as the
principal Eeasonfor doing so, that his delicate
health would not permit him to devote that at
%tention to the duties Of has office which was
necessary. Congress would not accept the re-
signation, and as Gen Paroles was about TO
leave for the Northern frontier, Gen. Bravo
was sworn in on the 28th ult.
