Eleanor Stevens, from Vera Cruz, whence she sail
ed on the 18th instant, the Picayune has letters
from Jalapa TO the 18th instant--three days later
than previous adyices-from which il makes up the
following summary of news:


The movement Of Santa Anna upon Puebla is
mentioned in Mr.. kendalrs letter below. Hopes
are entertained that Gen. Worth may be so fortunate
as to encounter him. Gen. Worth left Perote for
Puebla on the 10Th, with his own and General
Qultman's divisions. He was expected to enter
Puebla on Sunday, the 9Th. Ii is supposed the
authorities OF the town will come out to meet him
and escort him in.


All will be glad to learn that Gen. Shields is
mending' though slowly, and that Gen. P. F. Smith
has reported for duty.


Gen. Scott is still detained at Jaapa. The rea-
sons Tor his detention are mentioned by Mr..
Kendall IL will also be seen by his letter that
Mr.. Irst has arrived at the Generals headquarters.


Col. Chllds is governor of Jalapa, and will remain
there with 1000 picked troops when Gen. Scott
moves on to Puebla The city of Jalapa is entirely
quiet and orderly; no rows or disturbances have
occurred there.


The Yankee, or foreign LEGION organized by
Santa Anna from deserters from our armies, has
been disbanded and ordered out Of the city. Their
immortality and INSTRUMENTATION is assigned for this
proceeding. Their manners, the Mexicans say, are
not at all adapted to their society.
letter from Durango, dated the 26th of April,
states positively that COL Doniphans forces had
fallen back upon chihuahua instead of advancing
upon Durango We think that there can be no
doubt OF this fact, and consequently that Colonel
Doniphan has not been defeated. The nsurrection
in New Mexico is assigned as the cause OF his return

of seventy armed Mexcans whose appearance he did

large force, had passed towards Pueb that the roads
filled with robbers and bgands and that would not be
prudent for him to go the administrator de las dill

Last night intelligent Spaniard informed me that he had
two letters from Ozaba dated the 9th and the other
the 7th instant On the first day the letter stated that the
first brigade division of Santa Annas army started route
for Pueba and the h the other division marched in the
direction. His entire force put down at 500, the
of them indiereny armed and under little dis

If Santa Anna has moved towards the capital and there
