rhc Cnpturc or Vern Cruz.

We published Ertra Herald, yesterday
morning, containing some Intelligence that we
received by express from Philadelphia, to the
effect that Vera Cruz had been taken by our
forces, after desperate resistance at the OF
eight hundred of our troops.
The steamer Southerner, however, arrived
here an hour or two after the news was received,
and, according to her accounts, no reliable news
had reached Charleston, the place where the
rumor originated, of the taking Il Vera Cruz.
We have no doubt that the report 4 premature ;
but we may hourly expect reliable Intelligence
from that quarter.
The probability is that Vera Cruz is now IN
our possession but, Judging from the strength
of the walls around the city, and the determi-
nation of the Mexicans to defend II obstinatey,
its capture has been attended with great loss oil

By the arrival of the packet ship Columbia,
from Liverpool, and Northumberland, from Lon
don. we have advces two days later than those
received by the Hibernia. Political intelligence
of interest was rather scarce, and the commercial
accounts are not very important.
There had been no material variation in the
cotton market as regards prices, and the opera
lions were confined principally to the trade. We
shall look in vain for any improvement In prices
for this staple, and for any activity OF conse-
quencc in the market, so long as the present de-
ficiency in breadstuffs continues, and the price
of food ranges so high. The accounts we receive
by every arrival, confirm those previously rccev-
ed relative to the scarcity of food and all
doubt must now be removed, very little appre
henslon appears to be felt among spectators, on
both sides of the Atlantic, in relation to decline
in prices. Indian corn was at the latest dates
steadily advancing, the supply being short, not
withstanding the large shipments from this side.
There is very little danger of breadsuffs pouring
into Great Britain and Ireland fast enough TO ac-
cumulate large stocks, the consumption OF foreign
grain being more than equal to the receipts.
Our advices by the late arrivals, report the ex-
isence of a very large export demand from the
continent and shipments TO some considerable
extent in that direction, had been made from
London and Liverpool. The effect of this move
ment will be to put up prices In all the markets
ofGreat Britain, and to increase the deficiency.
1t was full six months from the date of our last
accounts from Liverpool TO harvest time, and the
poorer classes in every part of Europe are des-
tined, within that period, to experience more
distress from famine than they have yet. All we
can send forward from this country will be but
drop in the bucket II will be impossible to get
forward in season one fourth part of what we
can spare, in consequence of the scarcity of YES
sells.
The London money market continued very
much depressed. Consols ruled at prices current
when the steamer left, and there was every pro-
liability of greater scarcity of money than had
already been experienced. The ruling rate for
money was 81 a 81 per cent. This news, on the
whole, is about the same brought by the
steamer.
