From tha N. O. Delta, May 9 nEHCAW NEWS.

The steamship N. Orleans, Capt. Auld, arrived in the city on Saturday, from Vera Cruz, bringing dates from the lattor place to 3d May, and from the capital to otu ult. Gen. Scott. The most interesting news brought by the New Orleans, is the departure of Gen. Scott from Vera Cruz, on the 30ih ult., in the brig Petersburg, for new York.-r En paitantr, the name Winheld seemed to be bestowed upon Gen. Scott, in a spirit ol prophetic sagacity, and constitutes one of those remarkable coincidence which frequen ly lead us to believe that chance is not al ways as blind as people think, and tho gift of prescience has sometimes belonged to mortals. Another coincidence is in den. Scott's departure from Mexico, and bis re turn to the United Sta'es in tlje brig Peters burg, the name of the town in which Gen. Scon's earliest boyhood and youth were spent and where be first displayed the soul and ge nius which have since rendered his came so illustrious, and shed so much glory upon his country On his departure from the City of Mexi co, Gen. Scott received the most brilliant and striking testimonials of affection from bis companions in arms. A friend, ia a private letter, writes us thus "Just before Gen. Scott's departure, he held a levee, which was thronged by all grades of oSjcers, anrj by many of. the private soldiers. So great was the attendance, that the general was unable to greet them individually, but in a voice which was rendered indistinct by the strong emotions which possessed bis manly heart, and with a very perceptible tear trickling down his war-worn features, he bade farewell to all his brave brother soldiers, and wished them many years of happiuess, and a safe and speedy return to their families. I be scene was a stirring and impressive one. Many a brave heart i hat had withstood the storms of war. and lefied its thousand perils, was melted with feelings that sought relief in fears. The veteraq who had, in his short but unparal leled campaign, swayed and directed that lit tle army, and led it through so many dan gers, and over so much difficulty, io such glorious results, was, for jhe first lime, to se ver the tie Wiuch bound him to his gallant command. The crowd of officers and soldiers contin ued to lounge around Gen. Scott's quarters, until the time of his departure arrived, and when he entered bis carriage and waved his handkerchief, there was a profound and ex pressive sorrow perceptible in the vast as semblage.. Iis carriage was .followed for some distance on the road by officers on horseback, and as he passed along by the quarters of the different regiments, crowds of soldiers ran out to greet him, and wished him God speed. The Star of the $3d says that the night before his departure the general was serenaded by a splendid band of music, who played among other popular airs hat of "Hill to tho Chief." The general appeared on the balcony and bowed his hanks. But the most affecting scene of all, Siys the 8 tar, -mm wiwn ImIvIi Iiis bouse. fhe ufle guard was drawn up to receive bim, and as be passed, and they presented arms 10 their beloved commander for the last time, I bey shed tears like children, and so affec ted was the old hero, that he could scarce get into the carriage. On the 30m ult., Gen, Scott arrived in Vera Cruz. He was received there with much enthusiasm by the soldiers and citizens. VYithout delay, however, he immediately em barked on the brig Petersburg for New Yoik, under a salute from Fort Conception and of the flagship of Commodore Perry. On the 1st of May the Petersburg was towed out to sea, and as she passed the store-ship Relief and the frigate Cumberland (he rigging was hlled with men and three hearty clieers were given. It is deeply regretted by our whole popu lation that Gen. Scott should decline the tender of the ;psnitalitiea of our city. He gives u:- .i..r !-. r P.. wis icjuii lueicioie in ine lonowing letter, wnicn we take from the Crescent ol yester days Jalipa, (Mexico) April 28, 1848. My Dear ; As I may not have time at Vera Cruz, to put pun to piper, 1 write though much fatigued and half sick with a cold. I am being too late in the season--pushing on rapidly to embark from the beach, without entering that city Vera Cruz. I have written ahead to have ready, if pos sible, a vessel to take me directly , to the narrows, below New York, whence I shall proceed, without entering the city, to my lamily at Elizabethtown, New Jersey. I have learned, on the road, that some of the spirited and patriotic citizens of New Orleans including, perhaps, the Municipal authoritiesare thinking of taking public notice of my arrival among them; and possibly there may be a few persons in other places on the route to the North, (inland) who would give the long absent soldier a passing cheer or two. This, my dear sir, is another reason why I should hasten to my family at its homo in tha sequestered village, fifteen miles this side of New York; for laboring as I am under the public displeasure of the Executive, it would be highly improper in tne, s a soldier, to put myself in the way of provoking a cheer or shout from my warm hearted countrymen. Should there be any' such intention in New Orleans, as 1 have alluded to, please mate all necessary explanations; and apologies for cae; for J mke a great sacrifice of feeling, to a sense of public "slv'y by avoiding on my return home some hundreds of personal friends whom I should have the chance of greeting by the inland route. Always my dear , your friend.

in another column the proceedings of the Court on the 21st April. Ou the 25th, the members of the Court left the City of Mexico. The members of the Court are all now in this citv. and will proceed to-morrow to

examine the witnesses who reside here. Be sides the Court which is composed of Gen erals Towson and Cushing and Col. Belk nap Gen. Pillow, Col. Duncan (his counsel) and Capt. Ridgley (the Judge Advocate; attend the Court. The Treaty. The views of our correspondent, Mustang, on this subject, are perhaps more reliable than anything we can gather from our files. All our officers concur in the probability some think, absolute certainty of a speedy peace with Mexico. Pena y Pena, to make up (or the absences which stijl prevent the action of Congress, has issued a proclamation reducing the number of deputies necessary- to form a quorum. This is truly a Mexican device. New Mexico, California and Yucatan are excluded, by this proclamation, from any right of representation. This is considered a high handed violation of the constitution; and El Progreo of Queretarb, a strong war paper, is out against the Government for his arbitrary proceeding. It is probable that this measure will be so generally distasteful that the Government will recede from it, as there really seems to be a near prospect of a quorum without such extreme measures. Members bare been elected ftom Mornelia, who it is supposed are on their way to Queretaro: and then others are about to leave Mexico. In the meantime, a ridiculous dispute his arisen respecting the escoit of Commissioners $o vier and Clifford 10 Queretaro. The Mexicans profess to be alarmed at the idea of their being escorted by American troops, and Messrs. Sevier and Clifford very properly insist upon selecting their own escort.This absurb dispute, however, has been properly determined, as we see those efficient cprps the Rifles and 3d Dragoons, under Major Polk, have been designed as (he escort of our Commissioners. The Mexicans were terribly frightened by a rumor that Gen. Butler and his whole Division was to vii.il them and back AJessrs. Sevier and Clifford. The opposition to the treaty seems to grow small by degrees a nd beautiful less. Bustamente is sustaining (he Government with his influence which is deservedly great. Some of the papers are still opposing the Treaty. ElProgreso is the most influen tial, as it is published in the capital. It says that "though the United States offer us twen ty millions, they take fifty from us." It urges various reasons why the treaty should not be ratified, and among other things says the Government is check mated placed in a position where it can neither make peace (there being no Congress) nor war. From the N. O Delta, May 9. MILITARY HEROES. Our city is at present thronged with distin guished military characters. Besides the veteran Gaines, the oldest and one of the most patriotic 1 a l i a Am a x anu wnoie-souieu orucers in ine arm J, ana "Uia Rough and Rsdjr,w.. tha first hero of this war, we have Gen. Lane, the model of a partizau offi cer, who has been so truly called "The Marion of our army;"faen. Towson, the favorite artillery officer in Scott's army in the war of 1812, of whom the sagacious old hero is wont to say that there is no man in the .world who can clear his front as quick as Towson; Gen. Pillow who bas borne a conspicuous part in all the achievements of our army after its landing near V era Cruz.and who has displayed great zeal and energy m tne service ol his country, in a new and highly responsible position; Gen. Cushing, the accomplished and distinguised orator and politician, who only wanted the opportunity, which he eagerly sought, of showing himself as eflicientjana gallan t ip war as he has ever proved able and powerful in civil stations; Col. Belknap, a veteran of the late war who bears upon his person the scars of those trying conflicts and brilliant achievements whih have made the Canada Line classic ground, who gained high distinction in the Florida campaigns, and at the battles on the Rio Grande nobly led the 8th Inlantly protected the rear of Gen. Scott's advancing army, and 'with a small force of less than a thousand men, kept in subjection a city of 60,000 hostile people; Col. Duncan, to whom belongs the great praise of having strongly urged the advance of our army, after the battle pf?o Alto, and whose promptitude, skill, and daring, in the battles on the Rio Grande, and in the vajley of Mexico, have entitled him to a distinguished niche in the temple of Fame, and a blight page jn our military annals. To those officers who have just arrived in our citv. it would be uniust not to add the names sf the gallant Brooke, who is connected ; with some of the most briliant exploits of the late war, and of the intrepid Croghan, the hero of Sandusky, whose Spartm-like devotion and firmness served to redoem the cause o our country at the darkest epoch of her history; ' There are other gallant officers in cur city, but we have not space, however strong our inclination and desire may be, to notice the services and deeds of all. There are many young officers who, in their respective spheres, have gained laurels of the most unfac'ing character; who have evinced qualities that would do honor to the highest command, many of them glorious eleven of Wct Point, without whom, lien, Scott saw he could have marched into the city of Mexico only by multiplying the numbers of his army by four, and whose names will be preserved in grateful remembrance by an admiring people.
