HAVANA August 20. 1868.
BY the Spanish mail steamer Marsela. which
arrived here on last Monday morning, we have news
from the Mexican capital to August 10, and from
Vera Cruz to the Goth.
The most notable event they chronicle is the vir.
tual suppression of the revolution in the State Of
Vera Cruz. On the 14th General Bocardo arrived at
Cameron with the troops sent from Mexico and en-
virons, and was soon afterwards joined by Lieuten-
ant Colonel Jimenez and his battalion Of cavalry,
last from Huatusco The next day General Bocardo
marched to Medellin, when, with the assistance Of
detach nent from the garrison at Vera Cruz he
attacked Jose NJ Prlet0 In his stronghold and after
well fought engagement Of an hours duration
carried the place and badly routed the insurgents.
Seven prisoners were taken. Prieto, with less than
half dozen followers, escaped to Tejeria, and
from there left to Join Honorato Dominique. This
union Of the two leaders Of the instruction was not
long continued and did not produce any good to
their cause. On the 10th Colonel NJ Marquee, Of the
government forces, attacked Dominguez's band at
the villa Antigua and in q short time severely de-
scattered in all directions each bent upon assuring
his own safety by flight. Prieto and Dominguez
went their own way, with scarcely any followers,
and the government troops are keeping up an active
pursuit, with the hope Of capturing them. The
instruction In the canton of Jalacingo, headed
by Megarejo, has Jared but little better than
the twin instructions OF Prieto and Domin.
guez. Colonel Pascual Escandon, with his bat
TALON OF State Guards, has in succession
occupied Zapottlan, Mascalteco and Mecacaco,
driving the band of Melgarejo out OF each OF these
places with comparative ease. The insurgents have
taken TO the mountains, abandoning AtzaIan, their
revolutionary centre, as indeensbe in their present
strengthened circumstances. More troops have been
sent to Colonel Escandon and active measures are
being taken TO entirely crush out Magarejo and his
and that of Colonel M Marquee at Antigua about sixty
prisoners have been brought to Vera Cruz includ-
Ing two captains, one brother OF Marrer0, D0min-
In the castle OF San Juan de UlOa, also two cIt
zens OF Vera Cruz, late government officers named
Vicente and Julio Sanchez, arrested on the I4th for
supposed conspiracy to give up the city to the In
surgens.
Nothing definite nor positive is known as to the
war in the Puebla Sierra. The reports OF two DAYS
ago, brought to Vera Cruz by way Of Jalapa to the
purport that General Aatorre had met with q severe
nntsa orces ~ e%res arm ac are W 'ae
have been unf0unded. The government journals
now claim that besides the engagement OF August
at Huahuasta, In which the national troops had the
advantage another was fought on August 3 at Zaut-
Ia in whch the victory again inclined the side OF
the government. Both engagements, however, are
admitted to have been rather indecisve In their
suits and not to have amounted to much. General
Alatorre has been reinforced by another brigade and
has now over i've thousand men under him, showing
that this Puebla Sierra insurrection il the most con-
sequential one the Juarez administration has
as yet had TO deal with. The insurgents have con-
centrated large part Of their troops on the Cerro
San Miguel, and IL was said In Mexico city that
General Alat0rre had sent three strong columns
commanded respectively by Generals COrtina, Car
rion and Cravioto, to dislodge them. Nothing was
known In Vera Cruz when the Marsella LEFT how
this projected attack terminated. In another part
OF Puebla State-in the district Of Chiantla-the in
surrectionary band OF Jesus Garcia continued their
depredatons, almost unopposed. The absence OF
nearly all troops because employed with General
Alatorre elsewhere had left wide field open for the
exercise Of their Revolutionary talents, of which
Garcia ana followers have amply pro1ted. The
nelghboring district Of Matamoros Izucar has been
