Later from Mexico.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 1.-THE steamship
Constitution from Panama has arrived,
with dates via Acapulco from Puebla to
the 18th ult., and from the City of Mexico
to the 10th. On the 18th and 10th the
French were repulsed before fortress Car
mea. The end, however, appeared to have
arrived. The garrison and inhabitants
were in starving condition. Their am
munition was also failing, and Ortega hav-
ing been disappointed in not receiving ex-
pceted supplies from CommOnfOrt, VINO
had ATTEMPTED to cut his way through but
failed.
On the 18th Forey sent in flag Of truce
offering to allow the Mexican officers and
soldiers to march out; the officers with side
arms, providing they would give their pa
role not to serve against the French. This
was refused by Ortega. Meanwhile he
spiked the cannon, burst the gun carriages
and destroyed the infantry arms, and then
surrendered. "
The Mexican General, Riguls, and his
aids, and also the ordnance officers, prefer
ring death to being taken prisoners, shot
themselves dead. This advance of the
French army, was at latest adVices at Cho-
lula, six miles beyond Puebla, on its way
to the Mexican capital. The Mexicans are
very much embittered against Frenchmen
and all Frenchmen had been ordered u
leave the capital within eight days.
The Mexicans will defend the city an(
its approaches with great enthusiasm.
This account is from Mexican sources.-
Mexican houses in San Francisco are drap
ed, and from French houses, French flag.
are displayed. nF|.'.

Later from New Orleans.

NEW YORK, June S.-Officers who de-
clared leaving Franklin, tell that our
troops who passed were captured by guer-
rillas.
A committee of Union Associations had
requested Gov. Shipley to order the regis
that the loyal people can select delegates to
a Convention at which they will organize
the State government OF Louisiana.
Gov. Shipley in long letter cheerfully
promises all the aid in his power.
New YORK, June s.-The steamer Conti-
dental from New Orleans, June I'd, arrived
tonight.
From files of the Era we extract the fol-
lowing: can immense number of wagons,
about 900, filed with negroes numbering
5000, with 300 mules and horses, and !, 500
head of cattle, together with all the troops
in the Reche country as guards. The ad-
vance regiment being the 4lst Macs, un-
der Col. Chickering, arrived at New Orleans
from Barris' Landing on the Both.
On the march they had several small
skirmishes with guerrillas, who infested
the country, and being in the rear of our
column, many Of these protesting loyalty
where our army marched through some
time since, showed unmistakable gratiti-
cation at the withdrawal of our forces.
The Era of the 31st has news from np
the river, stating that Porter's two fleets:
one above and the other below Vicksburg,
are within three miles of each other, and
are IN regular communication, and sup
plies of all kinds are regularly received.
On the 22d, after hard fight, the fleet ST.
fenced all the hill batteries of Vicksburg,
and then .raked the water bluff batteries
for two hours
Grants and Pemberton's forces were
muzzle to muzzle, and Grant was mining
the rebel works. Grant was receiving re-
Inducements rapi6lv

A Severe Battle.

HEADQUARTERS 10TH ARMY Corps, BE-
FORE PORT HUDSON, May ga severe
battle was fought here yesterday by the
forces under Gen. Banks and the rebel
garrison. The loss was considerable on
both sides, but will fall far short of
the first estimate. Our forces advanced
upon the enemy's works and held their
position to-day.
The Era SAYS: Since the above was re-
ceived we have most satisfactory informa-
ton in regard to the progress of the seige
of Port Hudson, but which, from pruden-
tial motives, we refrain from publishing
Our forces are gradually gaining on the en-
emy, and a few days viii decide the fate
of that rebel stronghold.

Gen. Banks on Negro Soldiers.

WAsHINGToN, June 6.-Genl Banks, in
an official report, dated before Port Hud-
son, May 3Oth, gives an account of the at
tack on that place, similar to reports al
ready published-in speaking of the negro
TROOPS. he SAYS: ''they answered every ex-
pectation. Their conduct was heroic. No
troops could be more determined or more
daring. They made, during the day three
charges on the batteries Of the enemy, suf-
fering very heavy losses and holding their
position at night-fall, with the other troops
on the right of our line. The highest COM
mendation is bestowed on them by all the
officers in command on the right.
Whatever doubt may have existed here
tofore as to the efficiency of organizations
of this character, the history Of this day
shows conclusively to those who were in
condition to observe the conduct of these
regiments, that the Government will find
in this class of troops, effective supporters
and defenders. ia, .....- rr @
The severe test to which they were sub
jected, and the determined manner in
which they encountered the enemy, leave
on my mind no doubt of their success.
They require only good officers, com
manders Of limited numbers, and careful
discipline to make them excellent soldiers.
Our losses from the 23d to this date in
killed, wounded and missing is nearly
1000, including, I deeply regret to say,
some of the ablest officers Of the corps.

Specials to Cincinnati Papers.

CINCINNATI, June S.-The Cincinnati

non, June 6, which says reliable informa-
ton from Knoxville places the number of

land Gap, with 1000 rebel troops. 4.
The last information places General Pc

The number of his troops varies from
5000 to 5000.
A dispatch from Somerset, KY, on the
9th inst, says the rebel pickets for two
days past have not shown themselves op-
posite ellis ferry. A North Carolina regi-
ment is picketing the river in the vicinity
of Mill Springs. The rebels say 600 men

Editorial Meeting.

NEW YORK, June Sat a meeting of ed
itors held to-day, Horace Greedy, of the
Tribune, James Brooks, Of the Express, w:
c. Prince, of the Journal Of Commerce, and
various others being present, resolutions
were adopted to the effect that we recog-
nize and affirm the duty of fidelity to the
Constitution. Government and Laws of our
country; that treason and rebellion are
crimes; that while we emphatically dis
claim and deny any right as inhering in
journalists to incite, advocate, abet, uphold
or justify treason or rebellion, we respect
fully but finally assert that the right OF the
press to criticize freely and fearlessly the
acts of those charged with thS administra,
ton of the Government, andof their clvll
and military subordinates and that any
Limitations of this right created by the ne
cessities of war should be confined to To-
calities where hostilities exist or are imme-
diately Threatened.

Cairo News.

CAIRO, June s.-Capt. Hopkins, OF the
30th Missouri, from the mouth OF the "a,
ZOO on Wednesday last, reports that paroied
Federal prisoners say that the recent hre
in Vicksburg consumed one entire SIDE OF
Washington Square. Our forces have been
planting seige guns for several days, and
it was the intention to make a general
bombardment on Wednesday. Our lines
we're drawing closer and closer around the
rebel works, and everybody there was con-
fident of ultimate success. The report
that the rebels had burned the upper works
of the gunboat Cincinnati is confirmed.
Hopkins says the sick and wounded are
all cared for and doing well.
The steamer Champion arrived from be-
low this morning, but she brings no Later
news.
