THE LATE NEWS FROM VERA CRUZ.

ORLEANS BULLETIN JUNE lS.
We have seen letter from an officer of the re

mites for forming correct opinions. in which Ia
tonposs-s fnuen anxiety on the subject of the
attack upon our train. He alludes 10 the report
that the enemy destroying the Puente Nacona which
would greatly interfere with, if not entirely impede the passage

more serious apprehension, however, that the
my will take possession of Ceo GoTdo and defend that
pass against any renforcemens going TO Gen. ScoTT. If
they do so the present train and escort after they

Defence they could hold in check repue fourteen hundred

To seize and hold that pass present. with any thing like
strong force, would also place Gen. ScoTT in unpleasant
situation, and might obge him TO retrace his steps, in order
force open his communications with Vera Cruz that his
renforcemens could join him.
The prestige arising from the UNMARRIED in all

GARRISON OF VERA CRUz.-We have been in

under Pedro Jarueta. There were not more than
