AFFAIRS IN MExIco.-The news from Vera
Cruz, received by telegraph from New Orleans,
does not wholly confirm that which was received
three days sine by way Of Mlnatitlan. Both ac-
counts agree in stating that an engagement had
taken place between the coastitutionalists and
portion OF Miramon's army, conceding the vic
tory to the former. In the first received &C.
counts, however, it is added that Mramon sab
sequently marched eastward, and had arrived be-
fore Vera Cruz with five thousand men aud forty
field pieces, having also occupied the port Of AL
varado, few leagues south of Vera Cruz. The
later accounts, direct from the latter port do not
state where Miramon was, from which fact we de-
duce that he had not vet set himself down before
that important stronghold of the CONSTITUTIONAL
lists. Indeed, we do not see how, without siege
train or mortas, he can take the city. All the
accounts from there represent it to be strongly
fortified, having more than hundred guns in
position, some of which are of very large calibre
Field pieces can do little against eightinch guns,
if these are at all well handled.
Thus far, therefore, We have no Information as
to the course Miramon intends to pursue. One of
our correspondents some time since mentioned
rlnor that he had a plan for establishing a new
port at Alvarado, Anton Lizardo or Point Mo
cambo, where goods for the interior could be en-
tered and the duties paid. To do this be would
have to drive the constitutional forces out Of
The field, and hold possession of the roads to
the interior; otherwise new port would be Of no
advantage to him. In order to keep his anita
gonists shut UP in Vera Cruz he would require
forces raised in the hot country of that vicinity,
as those from the temperate regions of the in
terio, are subject to yellow fever from about the
middle Of April. If by that time Miramon's
Vera Cruz expedition has not reached definite
result he will have to withdraw from the coast and
leave things there as he found them. Should the
French and English interfere in any way, they
may change the result which now seems TO
promise n defeat for Miramon
