Tho lProgrcss OF Affaixsin MeN'cS'
The rsoont news from Vera Cruz makes %
mention ora cou1ict at ths NAtiond Road
Bridge. Nor had any movement toward 'ne
Civ OF Mexico been made The Allies were
occupying small strip Of territory outside the
walls Of Vera Cruz, which they bad obtained On
application to General URAouA, the Mexican
leader. The Tomito had made iss appear
ance Ia tho European campo, and was making
sad havoc with the troops. Transports were en-
gagged In conveying the sick to Havana.
Another important feature in the late news
is the dlyisIon that appeArs to be springing up
between France and England on the one Siue
and Spain on the other. The two former seem
disposed TO disaypoint the expectations the
proud and naughty Csstilisns have entertained
of a are.oouqusst of Mexico. The latter had cal
cuIsted upon the great aid they were to receive
ftorh General MiRAMoN, and, il Is faid, the
original plan was that he should be Installed
Lieutenant General OF the Spanish expedition
The treaty with France and England .lpr their
in,eryention changed that plan; but the Span
lish leaders still designed to send MlRAAoN home
| 70 rouse into ac.iOn the old party which had ,ad
ihered 70 his fortunes, and create faction 10
favor OF Spanish conquest and remuneration
MlRAMoN accordingly left Havana, his place
Of exile, aud returned toVerR Cruz. There VIC
are told he was seized, by order ofAdmiral
DuNLOP, commapding the British squadrop, and
placed in rigid confinement to prevent his ess-
cape. This looks like q disposisionA to snun
Spain, and will doubtless make the Dons Fee
not a little irritable. M ~ s9II T1
This and other circumstances might induce
u strong hope that Mexico would be able to ro
tain Ond vindicate her independence, If he
people were only firm and united. Bat thego

The psysage Of Federal guhboats Up The Ten,
nessee riveras far as Florence, in the State OF
Alabama, an interesting account Of which has
been given ip our special dispatches, is an event
that may be dWeit upon with peculiar eatisiac-
tion. Aside from the immediate reeults Of the
voyage, such as the capture of rebel vessels and
the destruction of others, the circumstance of
penetrating two hundred and fifty miles into the
enemy's country and meeting an ardent and en-
thusisssic linton feeling among the people, is
highly important That this feeling Is sincere,

in our armies, and assist in putting down the
