The Route from Vera Cruz to
the City of Mexico.

The city of Vera Cruz and the Castle of
San Juan de Ulloa having been captured,
and General Scott having taken up his march
for the interior, en- route for the city ofMeXico,
II becomes of interest 10 ascertain the diff
cuties with which he will have TO meet, and
to read description of the places through
which he will probably pass with his army.
Our readers will find all this in the follow
ing account for which we are indebted to
Farham, Meyer, and several others:
VERA CRUZ.
The city ofVera Cruz is walled round, with
a fort ut each extremity of the water 'front.';
the walls on the land side are loop holed for
musiSetry. Parapet guns have been recently
mounted on the walls. The city walls are
very thick, of coral rock; the walls OF the
houses are usually 1-2 feet thick, ard the
roofs are fiat. Each house has cistern of
rain water. The city is we'll paved. So
much has been said about the health of the
place that we think the following will be in
teresting. According to Meyer. the baptisms
and burials in Vera Cruz in the year 1881,

A liberal estimate of the number on the
population ofVera Cruz in 1871 is fixed at
$500 souls, and this shows that one sixth of
the entire population died in the year. Of
this one sixth, about an equal proportion per-
ished from vomito. The diseases, diarrhpa
and dysenterv are the most fatal in the cata-
logue. Mayer, in proceeding with the con-
sideration ofthis subject. remarks: Sin 1912
lam told that near two thousand died ofvom-
ito at Vera Cruz This, however, was owing
to the number of raw troops sent there from
the interior to be embarked for Tucatan.'
1t is to be borne in mind that our troops are
not to garrison Vera Cruz in any force. San
Juan dc Ullon is to be garrisoned, but all the
troops either in the city or castle are to be
