Latest News tom Mexico.

New ORLEANS, March 23.-Tne Picdyune has
the following French version of affairs in Mexico,
received by the arrival Of the steamer Sonora
from Vera Cruz on the 18th, via Tampico on the
15th and Bagdad on the 18th. tr
The weather at Vera Cruz is already quite
warm, but healthy. The population is large
compared with what it was in former years.
Business is lively, and the work on the railroad
from the sea-coast in the direction of the capi-
tai is progressing rapidly, but it is not in run
ming order further than Paso del Maclio, forty
five miles from Vera Cruz
The commission which went to the City of
Mexico to announce Leopold's death, in return
ing to Vera Cruz was attacked by guerillas at
Sio Fris, between Puebla and the capital. One
was killed, another had an arm fractured and
afterwards amputated, and a third very badly
wounded.
A passenger by the Sonora, who left San Luis
Potosi February 10, and went via Queretaro to
Pue5la and Orizaba, reports business dull in
San Luis; rents are uncommonly high; mines,
and especially the Catarco, lively. Most of the
Americans are at Cordova. Regular stages are
running between San Luis, Monterey, and Sal
tillo. No communication with Matsporas and
Tampico.
All was quiet in San Luis, but not in the coun-
try around. Between San Luis, QueretaFc, and
the City OF Mexico all was quiet
The City of Mexico dates are to the 25th ult.
The capital was full of people, but dullj very
few Americans were there, all having gone to
Cordova.
No sickness at Vera Cruz Tampico, or Bag
dad. Small numbers of troops are constantly
arriving from Europe, and not many leaving;
only those whose terms of service are up. About
80, 900 French troops are In Mexico.
General Meiia is the most highly trusted.
