Castle Of Vera Cruz.

A correspondent ofthe New Orlean.
Delta furnishes the following historical
"reminiscences respecting this fortress
sin front of the city Of Vera Cruz,
at the distance Of about l,l0o Castiian
varas, extends coral reef, which has
gradually elevated itself above the lev
'el of the ocean, and which was visited
by Don Juan de Grijalva as early as
the year 1918, and called by him the
island Of Ulua. On this island the Span.
iards afterwards erected, at an expense
of$40,0OO,0 900 the famous castle Of San
Juan de Ulua, as rampant against
foreign invasions as well as foreign
curiosity. This celebrated fortress,
whose batteries held at one time 1T
guns, Of various calibre, has now been
captured the fourth time since its first
construction. 1t was captured for the
first time by surprise on the 18th Sep
tember, 1868, by the pirate Juan Aqui-
mas Acle, who was, however, shortly
expelled by Don Francisco de Lujan,
with the aid Of a fleet composed of
twenty-thrss vessels. This happened
when Don Martin Henriquss was vice.
roy of Mexico. The second capture,
also made by pirate named Lorenci|lo
occurred in the night between the 18th
and 18Th OF May, 1893, and was far
more disastrous in its consequences.
LorenciIlo, after he had mastered the
citadrel, sacked the city of Vera Cruz,
and after having remained in peaceful
possession of both for the space of
nearly two weeks, departed with his
plunder. The third capture was ef-
ected by Admiral Bodin, and is too
we'll known to require further men,
.ion."

From the N. 0. Com. Times, April 7.
Prospects of Peace.

We have been permitted to peruse
several private letters, Of very late
date, from the city of Mexico, written
by persons of the highest respectability,
and whose sources of information are
ample. They state, as a matter of
positive certainty, that negotiations for
peace between the United States and
Mexico are under advisement, and that
the return of Santa Anna, who was
hourly expected, would be the signal
for the commencement of overtures.-
These advices are similar to those re.
ceived at the north, and to which sew
eral of the journals in that quarter have
given Publicity. The outgivngs of the
northern press on this subject were,
however, little more than conjecture.
Oar opinions are based upon more re-
liable information. - ... + n.

LINES BEFORE VERA Cruz,
Morning of March %.

GENTLEMEN: The articles Of surren-
der were signed, sealed, and delivered
last night about l2 O'Clock, and the
town Of Vera Cruz, the celebl ated cas-
tie, and all their contents are given up
to Uncle Sam. This is the nineteenth
day since we landed, seventeen of which
we have been under their fire. Our
engineer officers have worked day and
night, and exposed themselves fearless
ly in reconnaissance, and laying out
the works. Our officers and men have
been two-thirds Of the entire time, night
and day awake, and either at work in
the trenches or on guard, or picket
guard. Every two or three days ter
rIble norther has sprung up. carrying
away the tents, and half sufficating the
poor fellows, already so much harassed.
i am speaking now particularly Of the
first division, which constructed and
manned the works, and served the bat.
teries that have taken the town. The
other two divisions have had very hard
duties to perform. The sailors have
worked like good fellows, and their bat
terry has done most excellent service.
The town is in ruins, and the streets

consternation has spread itself oyel
Mexico. Their troops are on the re
treat. No serious opposition is expect
Cd to be made at the tNutionel Bridge
strong as its position naturally is, and
capable of the strongest artificial de.
fences; nor at Jalapa; and indeed, we
can scarcely anticipate any very seri.
Gus resistance until he arrives at the
capital itself, and becomes master ol
the "halls of the Montezumas." y,
And again, we now understand that
Chihuahua, the capital of an important
province, has capitulated to a very in

troops and Of artillery. s @, as5
Thus beaten at every point by infe-
rior forces; with 1900 Of their best
troops lost at Buena Vista, and with
1000 more. put horse de combat by a
parole of honor; with their armies eth
er dissipated or flying before our victo-
rious eagle, how can Mexico continue
the war with any prospect Of success?
Her guerilla system is gone. Her cap
ital will probably be in our possession,
or at least her table lands will be occu-
pied so as to permit our troops to ad-
vance with additional reinforcements
to the capital, If it should be found ne
cessary to take it and temporarily re-
tain it. We understand that reinforce
ments are about 10 be thrown IN both
our armies; and, if Mexico should con-
tinue besotted, blind TO her interests,
infatuated by, her ridiculous pride, we
must put forth our powerful arms in a
more vigorous prosecution of the war.
We will not say what will become OF
Santa Anna, stripped Of his army. We
will not say what will become of the
wealth and influence Of the clergy; but
Of one thing we are fully assured, that
we shall no longer hear Of the silly 70.
domontade Of the Mexicans-of Santa
Annals idle boast about gathering laur-
els on the banks of the Sabine; and
unless Providence has maddened those
whom it is determined to destroy, we
shall no longer hear Of the idle demand
being made, that our troops shall evac-
late the soil of Mexico before she con-
,ents to treat Of peace.
II any reliance can be placed upon |
he accounts which we have received
rom Mexico, through the New Orleans
Picayune, thele is an item Of lntelli-
,ence which we are pleased 10 hear,
liz: that there is still government in
Mexico who may treat with us-nay,
hat Santa Anna is there, probably pre-.
Jared, with the concurrence Of the cler.
", to assume the dictatorship. But
le can scarcely hold it long, if he con.
inues TO be stripped Of the charm Of
