The ship Oregon left Anton lixardo on tbi 30th. Firing was heard on board at the time the vessel left, and it was supposed the city of Vera Crux was then being attacked.

SCOTT’S ARMY A Utters from Vera Crux, March t 4, says:— The Norther which commenced at sundown yesterday .still continues, completely cutting off all communication with the vase Is lying off or under Bacrifiolos. Bbe!le are occasionally sent towards Gen. Worth's lines from the castle, but in th»j main they have fallen short Captain Vin ton continues al hia position near the lime kiln. At'thia time, half put 3 o’clock, they are throw ing 18 inch sheila from the castle of Ban Juan de Ulloa, and one of them ha* just bunted a abort distance from where I am writing, yet without do ing any barm. Another letter written by Mr. Kendall on die morning of the 15th March, says: Another night haa paaod off quietly, no alarm of consequence dlstarbiog the lines. The enemy is occasionally throwing round shot end shell, yet with little effect. One of the latter, aod of the heaviest eixe, struck directly In the midst of the Blh Infantry last night, but did notinjare a man. There is a prospect of aome little cloee fighting to day, as our outpoeta are to be thrown In nearer the city walls. The woika around tho city eeem to be complete and strong, and no doubt is entertained that they will lie obstinately defended. We must make a great) sacrifice of blood before these strongholds can be taken. The New Orleans Commercial Tunes aaya:— The report la that General Boott will not listen to any offer* rathe part of the town, to capitulate without the Bartender of the castle being Included. The cilix -na of Vera Crux, generally, ere averse to defending it; they are desirous of giving in at ones but the military overawe seem determin ed on fighting. NEW YORK MARKET.
