TIE Progreso Of the 9Th, adding further particulars
Of this epgsgem emit the same recorded IN our CORE
spopdence expresses the opinion that 1t will sOmeThat
sampen the belicose ideas Of Miramon, while the
Government at Vera Cruz considers 1t worthy OF
special official congratulations. And II takes tels
occasion 10 announce on the authority OF latest letters
from Ne xioC that after the rout OF young mTsmon,
the ConstitutiunaIst troops had occupied Aguasca-
Ksntes; that they had also taker the Citiss OF Leon
and Irapuato; and that Guanaiusto bad fallen into
Their hands. A Geographic dispatch from Jasps
ssnouncss later that IN the latter engagement Gen.
Leesgs Of the ReacuOnsiy 8rmv, lOst ali MS artillery
The Government also announce autooritatively that
Gen. DegoIado was preparing to take advantage OF
these ,riumphs by march upon tue City OF Mexico.
II dses not however, give the number OF troops al his
disposal. -. n A.. o.,.- Had
Mirsmon does not appear to take the same view OF
the campaign, but Continued his expedition without
changing, 40 far as lie known, any OF his plans The
base Of his operations at stest account received at
the Constitutional camp, extended from Cortoya to
Tehuacap, from which 1t wOuld appear that he stiil
contemplated the approach to Vera Crox, via Aivara-
do, by the sea coast.
This intelligence was tesgraphed 70 Vera Cruz, the
9TH intt and, perhaps, was 10 the 9th from Mramons
camp. His subsequent movements are not Known
The same dispatch however, the Consultation
al Goverpmen that his arIoy numbered J,34U men,
and that he bad with him 100 scaling ladders, each OF
spfcisnt size for six men abreast to sosle the walls OF
Vera Cruz.
Al last accounts, u headquarters of the C)nsttu
honsl amy was at HuNtuscO, where Gen. Ampndia
had assumed ito command. Everything has been
done that could be done" rays the PrOgrcso of the
9Th, {" TO dispute the passage Of the Reacuonsres,
"by whatever route they may ate npt 10 approach
"Vefa Cruz" From this ii would appesr that, not
withdrawing the affair at Jamsps, the people Of Vera
Cruz did not consider Themselves yet ont of danger
Though we are told that some families who had
fed down the coast were thinking Of returning home
again.
Ss much for the actual state of things on this side,
70 far as We have been able to CLEAN the facts from
Vera Cruz papers. The most important news, how
ever, is from the other side bot that is no later
than the Extraordinary of the goth ut, from the
sapitl no other having aimee arrived; besides, the
statements very vague. Ii 1t be true, however,
that Desoado lad succeeded in uniting the forces of
Alvarez, Caamano and Nlabs, he may, in the alb
senoe Of Miramon, march safely on the capital.
