The steamship New Orleans has lust arrived
from Vera Cruz, which place she left on the 25.h
and brings l5C sick and wounded under the
charge of DR.. McFarlane.


We have, by this arrival, the Eagle OF 23d
and the Sun Of Anahuac of 24th, bot find nothing
of interest in them. We learn, however, verba /
ly, that the day the New Orleans left, informa.
ton had been received. that Cen Pillow, who had


left shor, time previous, with train, had hud
an engagement with the guCrrllas, whom he had
repulsed, killing 80 Of them.


The fighting took place near Cerro Gordo, but
no details have been received.


Gen. Cudwaslader had reached Jalapa, but had
saved only about so out of 200 wa gons, he having
been obliged 10 burn the others, in consequence
Of the mules being killed.


The vomito was very bad at Vera Cruz, and
the deaths numerous.
