' * Tht Last S*Vi from Vera Crux. 1' OFFICIAL DESPATCH. ■ [ / v ; We have three official tjeept tehee from Geo. eiace c hie'Uodiof before Verm.Craz. po the I Cth of March he communicates u fol lows; "The eolore of the United Sutrswere trranpb •oily planted ashore, io full view of this city and its castle, and under the distant fire of both, in the ''afternoon of the 7th instant. Brevet Brigs* dier, General Wool'a brigade of regulars ledtbe descent, quickly followed by the division of Uni ted States volunteers apder Major General Pat tersoo, and Brigadier General Twiggs's reserve brigade of regolara. The three Boer successfully landed in C 7 sotf boats, each boat conducted by naval officers, and rowed by sailors from Comoro* dore Conner’s squadron—-whose lighter veaels flanked the hosts so es to he ready to protect the operation by tbeir crow fire. The whole army reached the shore in fine style, and without direct opposition, (on the beach) accident, or low, drjving the enemy from the grouod to be occupied. In extending the line of Investment around the city, the troops for three days, have performed the heaviest labors in getting over the hills and cut* , ting through the intervening forests all under the distant fire of the city and castle—and in the midst of many sharp skirmishes with the enemy. In. then operations we have lost In killed and wounded several valuable officers and and men. Among the killed, I have to report Brevet Capt Albania, of the United Btate* 2d ' infantry, much distinguished in the Florida war, and a most excellent officer. He felt on the lltb tosh; end Lieotenunt Col. Dickinson, of the South Carolina regiment, was badly wounded, iq a skir mish the day before. Two privates have been killed in these operations, and four or five wound* ed. -The city being invested, would, no doubt, esi’y surrender, but for the let! that. If occupied by oa, it woo Id immediately be fired upon by the castle. I am not altogether without hope of fiodlng the means of coming to some compromise with die city on this subject 80 far, the principal skirmishing bu fallen to the lot of Brigadier Generals Pillow’s and Quit* man’s brigades. Both old and new volonteer reg iments have conducted themselves admirably. Indeed, the whole army is full of zeal and confi dence, aod ; cann6t fail to acqoire distinction in the impending operation*. On the 14th General Scott writer: ' “The enemy continues the fire of bis heaw guns upon our line of investment, but only from .tube in time, and without effect, so far as have : jet been reported. At this moment bur stteeklog parties, by brigades, are engaged in driving in tbs enemy* posts and skirmishers, so as to clear the space between us and the city, and to enable our reconnoitring officers to note'well the intervening ground. This operation may.not be completed before to-morrow morning, or at least I may not learn tbe result at an early bour. 1 sent in this morning, by flsg of truce, my eu* ewer both to the consulsof France and Spain, residing within Vera Crux, accompanied, with printed safe-guard, for both, as well as for the con sols of Great Britain and Prussia.
