We cory from the New Orleans Delta the follow.

which left Vera Cruz on The 2lst OF March.

fRN WAR IN VERA cRuz
onr information in regard to the war in tba
state ot Vera Cruz Is derived from the Propresso
IAberalist paper. 1T we are 20 believe that pa-
rer,the ReactiouaTy forces have not made apy head
way, aud IuloagA has as little chance as ever of
securing the adhesion Of the State. Echeagaray
had established Reactionary government in ia.
lapa and then advanced, apparently with the De.
sgu Of attacking Vera Cruz. 1t does not seem
HAT battle Was fought nevertheless Echeagaray
soon commenced precipitate retreat, during
which over one hundred of his deserted to
the CODstitutUnalis!s He did not even enter ia
ilpa, aud the consequence that the Reaction
aty authority IN that city WAS snbverted IL ap-
pears, from y proclamation of EcheaLaraY, that he
had expected the garrisoDs of Perote and Vera
Cruz to pronounce in favor of the Xaloaga. The
iailaciousness of this hope caused him TO retire.
d. Tomas Marin, whose appointment as Cover
uer of-Carmen, aud visit TO and abrupt departure
from that place We have already announced, had
arrived at Vera Cruz. Marin had expected TO pro.
cure enough assistance in Carmen to enable him to
return and form the blockade Of Vera Cruz.
The hberalst Gen. La Lave was at Perote, AMI
Negrete At Jalapa.
THE IN THE INTERIOR.
We have nothing decisive from the interior. The
runors which reach conflicting, and in
some instances uDiutellgibe.
The reactionist journals had reported that Par
rodl and DObiadO had made 0yertures for surren-
der aud adhesion 10 Zuoags. This is strenuous
ly denied by the Pr0greso. 1t is, however certain
that Ceiaya had fallen into the hands Of the reac
uonist forces The Iuioaga papers say it WAS
ctptured by Gen. 0solloF, after eight ours hard

I'D Tor strategic reasons and occupied by Osoi
los without any opposition whatever. There had
previously, however, been a battle between Parro-
di and the forces of Mejia and Casanova in which
tie latter were worsted. parvOdi subsequently,
retired to Leon, where he had strong position.
Alvarez was at Cuernavaca. His arrival at that
place had caused much dismay to Xuloaga, and
perhaps accounts for the sudden retrogrsde move
mcnt Of Echeagaray.
TIE SANTA ANNA N0YEMENTs--ZCLOAGA WANTS TIE

BY the following, which we take from the Pro.
grcsso. We should infer that the agents of Santa
Anna are already on the coast of Mexico, and that
