U3 if No Tidings of the Pacific We learn with deep regret, by our telegraphic despatches received yesterday and the day before, that the rumor of the safety of the Pacific, brought by the Canada, was unfounded the Atlantic and the Asia have both arrived, and no tidings of the missing steamer have been received. The Pacific sailed from Liverpool on the 23d of January the Asia on the 9th of February, or seventeen days later. At that time the former had not been heard of at any European port, she has now been out thirty four days, and every moment must increase the harrowing interest felt for her safety. Our telegraphic correspondent at New York, on the arrival of the Asia, says that the conclu sion was nearly universally held in that city that the Pacific had struck an iceberg and gone down but we will still cling to the hope that we shall yet hear of her safety. That she is disabled is past all doubt that she has entirely lost the use of her machinery is also certain but there is a chance that her hull is still sound, and that she is now endeavoring to make her way towards some port under sail.

Lightly rigged as. she is, her progress must be necessarily exceedingly slow if she is buffeting the waves under sail she has probably gone to the Southward of the usual track taken by vessels, and is attempting to make her way back to the nearest European port and if such be the case, weeks may elapse before we hear any tidings of her. Our readers must all recollect the deep and wide spread anxiety felt for the fate of the steamer Atlantic, in the winter of 18G1. That vessel sailed from Liverpool on the 28th of December, 18o0, and when nearly all hope of her safety had died away in the minds of our citizens, the joyful intelligence was re ceived in this city, on the 19th of February following, that she had succeeded in reaching Cork harbor in Ireland. We recollect that Jenny Lind was here at the time, and, as she had come over the previous summer on the missing steamer, her solicitude was great in her fate.

We have already stated that the Atlantic left Liverpool on the 2Sth of December, 1850 at this time a description of her trip may not be altogether uninteresting. She sailed, ac cording to an account now before us, in fine steaming condition, but at the outset encountered so fierce a gale in the Mersey that she was compelled to bring her pilot off with her. Up to the Cth of January she had strong westerly gales, with a heavy head sea on the evening of that day, and when she had made nearly two thirds of the distance across the ocean, her engines were suddenly stopped, as was supposed on account of some slight in jury to her machinery. But it was soon as certained that the main shaft was broken completely through, rendering her engine powerless. The ship was at once hove to under storm canvas, the wheels lashed, and all hands set to work during the niirht and following day in sending up her square yards and stripping her wheels of the floats a task difficult and idangerous in a gale of wind, and with the flecks covered with ice.

Ou the "thjjand 8th of January the Atlantic was laid to with the hope of an abatement of the gale, or a change of wind, Capt. West being desirous of making sail for the American coast, i( possible. the 9th the wind hauled to the northwest, when sail was immediately made, and the course shaped for Ilali fax, then 897 miles distant. The distance to New York was about 1,400 miles. The northwest wind continued until noon on the 10th, when an observation placed the crippled ship 180 miles south and 70 miles west of her position at the time of the accident.

A southwest gale now sprang up, and it been neces ary to heave the vessel to for evei with moderate weather it was evident all that she could do nothing by the wind under canvas. At 8 A. M. of the 11th a large ship passed, bound to the eastward but she either did not see or took no notice of the signal of distress flying on board the Atlantic. At 10 P.

M. on the same day, after taking an accurate account of the stores on board, and considering the apparent impossibility of reaching home with the ship in her disabled condition, Capt. West determined, with the assent of his officers and passengers, to bear up for the coast of Europe, and this was accordingly done. From this time the Atlantic was fortunate in having a succession of following gales and heavy seas, and, after making something like 150 miles per day, anchored safely in Cork harbor on the 22d January. On the 19th of February the news reached this city, as has been already stated, and was received with general joy and gratulation by all classes." It will thus be seen that we were without any intelligence of the Atlantic for ffty tico days: it is now only thirty three days since the Pacific sailed, and unless she ran into an iceberg, or met with some accident which sent her down at" once, we may still hear of her.

We must admit, however, that there are strong fears that she has been lost in the ice on the Some of the passengers by the Persia, which sailed three days after the Pacific, report that had not their vessel been built of iron she must inevitably have gone down among the icebergs and field ice. It is known that one of her wheels was 80 badly crippled as to render it useless: it may be hoping against hope, yet why may not both of the Pacific's wheels been so much damaged as to render repairs impossible on the water And again, why may she not have broken a shaft in heavy weather, as was the case with the Atlantic, and have thus been compelled to nut back under sail We are willing to cling to any straw floating on the waves of conjecture that she may yet be heard of aa safe. But if she Is lost, with all on board, it will be a sad item to add to the long catalogue of shipwreck and loss of life. Pass Christian Hotel. Most of our readers are probab'' ting salu talk of renovating, enlarpr" its ST Hotel at Ps ccesaibility from brityof the place.

It was imperfectly built, is letting old, and was never constructed with proper view to the comforts of the guests.

It inadeauate to the wants of TT OO av. I of a New Orleans for a watering place so near and so attractive.

There is now, we learn, a prospect of having a new, much enlarged, and elegant hotel erected on the same spot. The Mississippi Legislature have granted a charter of incorporation to a company, composed of Jno. R. Shaw, A. D.

Kelly, Wm. E. Miles, Richard Nugent, Robert Mott, Thos. Kershaw, Wm. II.

Garland, and their associates, for the purpose of erecting a hotel at the Pass and nnder such auspices it is impossible the enterprise should fail. The plan and specifications of the new building have been already drawn, and we have had an opportunity of examining them. The design is to erect a new building on the spacious green, between the Gulf shore and the present hotel site, preserving the present buildings, improved and remodeled, as rear wings, surrounding an interior court yard. The new hotel will extend nearly four hundred feet, with a southern exposure directly upon the Gulf shore. It is to be three stories in height, each story surrounded by spacious piazzas, and the, whole embellished in a style of beautiful and elegant architecture.

There will still be space enough for a highly ornamented court yard and lawn, and all the other buildings are to be renovated. The number of additional rooms thus obtained will be 124, all so arranged as to receive the freest circulation of air, and a 'considerable number provided with fire places for the possible comforts of the inmates. The amount required to complete the build ings in all respects, including the purchase of site and all subsisting rights, does not exceed $10,000, and it is beyond question that it must prove a profitable investment as stock. A low rent for such an establishment would pay a liberal interest on the amount subscribed, and we are told that it is in contemplation to reserve very liberal privileges for stockholders. It is an enterprise in which the New Orleans public are interested, and we hope noth ing will occur to prevent it being carried out according to the designs of its public spirited ors.

LATER FROM MEXICO. TIE. Proiiunciamiento and Bombardment at VERA CRUZ Conspiracy Discovered at Jalapa Communications with Mexico Interrupted The steamship Texas, Capt. Forbes, whose arrival at the bar we reported in our evening edition of yesterday, reached the levee last evening in good time. She reached Vera Cruz on her late trip hence on the 20th, and left on her return on the 22d, to which date we have papers and correspondence from that port.

From the capital we have nothing as yet, as communications between it and Vera Cruz are reported to be interrupted. She brings the following passengers W. B. Johnson, J. De Gard, A.

Pallas, H. Dew. buret, and four in the steerage. On freight, the TfJxas brings $5,000 in specie, and five bales of beansconsigned to J. W.

Zacharie Jc Co. Of her specie, 1,000 is consigned to J. Y. de Egaiia, and $1,000 to W.S. Pickett.

Capt. Forbes reports that the Spanish steamer Mexico arrived at Vera (Jruz from Havana on the 21st and on the same day the brig Nayade, seventy five days out from Hamburg. The American bark Wildfire, Capt. Marschalk, was at Vera Cruz discharging when the Texas left. We have news of a somewhat exciting and extraordinary character even for Mexico by this mail.

Mr. Da Costa, the purser of the Texas, favora us with items respecting it. He reports that the castle of Ulua pronounced in favori.of Haro Tamariz on the night of the 12th, alnd on the 13th notified the city that if it did iot surrender by noon it would be bombarded. At half past 12 o'clock, the city not having surrendered, the Castle opened fire on it, and continued for an hour. Two persons were wounded, and some little damage was done to buildings.

On the 14th the French frigate Penelope came up from Sacrificios, and anchored between the castle and the city. Nothing further occurred until the 19th, when the war steamer Guerrero came in to tow out the national ship Guadalupe, and then the castle fired into her for fifteen minutes, five shots taking effect, killing the first lieutenant and four men, and wounding seven others. In the meantime, a bomb from Fort Santiago fell in the castle, blowing up an ammunition chest, killinc and wounding sixteen men. On the 20th, at half past 5 P. the castle surren dered to the city.

"vuinstantial accounts of the affair iiiimil in the snhioined Jns. which we received by the Texas. Our correspondent sends us the following Special Correspondence ol the Picayune. Vera Cruz, Feb.

21. 1856. Since your lost news from this place the city has undergone something like a siege, without any fear a capture. Some prisoners in the castle of San Juan de Ulua, on tbe 13th insL, got up a small pro uunciamiento which has put the people here to much inconvenience. You know that the castle is used as prison for criminals confined for political offences Among the number tha incarcerated was.

a man named Salcedo, about whom nobody knows much. and who does not seem to be deserving of much sympathy. His former career hasean spent in robbing on the roads, and acting as a chief of guerillas until appointed a captain in the Army. By some means he was enabled to gain an influence with the soldiers of tbe garrison, and finally induced them to seize their officers and put him in command. He immediately sent a peremptory summons to the city of Vera Cruz to surrender in a few, hours ander a penalty of a fire being open upon the peaceable inhabitant In cast of refusal.

His messenger was sent back by Got. Llave, who declined to listen to any such summons. Consequently a brisk fire from the batteries was opened on the town. You may well imagine the dismay and consternation among the people. Many fled forthwith to the country, taking tbe women and children with them, and many more wwuld have gone IT means could have been procured.

The inhabitants could not comprehend why the firing was com. menced, or what was to be gained by its continuance from the castle. The Governor was not inclined to surrender to a robber, whose sole aim was to get possession of the city, without proclaiming any right or reason for his extraordinary proceeding. How long the firing on the inhabitants would have lasted it is impossible to say, had not the captain of the French frigate Penelope, of sixty guns, come to their assistance. I believe the foreign Consuls united in formal document requesting him to protect them from an outrage which the circumstances would not justify, and I believe the Governor also desired his interference.

The French frigate was. therefore. placed close tinder the walls of the castle, and the captain threatened Salcedo with a bombardment if he persisted in destroying the lives and property of neutrals, and of others who were defenceless. After some eight days operations the courage or provisions in the garrison of the castle gave out. Terms of compromise were proposed to Gen.

Llpve, who would not receive any overtures except those of unconditional submission. Yesterday evening the castle' surrendered, and Salcedo, along with bis accomplices, was put in irons to undergo a court martial, and then to be shot. Tbe execution has not, bow. ever, come off, but from the exasperation of the citi Zens Salcedo is likely to bave a very unanimous if not very dispassionate jury to dispose of his case. Some eight or ten lives have been lost in this affair, while quite a number of soldiers in the castle were much injured by the accidental explosion of ammunition which too shortened their allowance of powder to keep up the action.

Although many foolish things are done in this country, and many outrages are perpetrated, still I thiuk this high handed proceeding of Salcedo's will give him an unenviable notoriety for having surpassed all bis predecessor a recklessness in this line. He seems tp have fired upon everv oh. ject within range without much discrimination, hav. ing intended oniy 10 ao oil ine a am age possible Churches, hotels and private dwellings show the marks of his balls, and the steamers within reach were struck and several sailors killed. The news from the interior is not of much con sequence, fuebla still remains in possession of the forces under the command of Haro Tamariz, although all the surrounding country is hostile to his cause.

Uraga being defeated, baa fled into the Sierra, and the troops sent against him have returned to the capital to be employed against Puebla, wnua anotner strong iorce is aiso marching from the soutb'to concentrate against the same city. It is obvious to all that Haro Tamariz must soon succumb. His resources are exhausted, no one is joining bim, and many are daily deserting from bis standard. The other petty revolutions have been quelled, and the country is fast settling down into quietness and peace, with the exception of Puebla. Haro ia resort.

ing to forced loans, a sure indication that his race is nearly run. in mci ne is oniy supported by the few who are in favor of a monarchy, of which principle be seems to be sole champion remaining. The effect of the new tariff recently established has been most favorable in increasing the strenoth and popularity of the government of President Comon fort. When the steamer Texas arrived yesterday from New Orleans the usual visit and examination by the officials of the custom house were dispensed with. The passengers went on share with their bag gage without any permission being asked or expected, and without passports or any other docu ment The oaggage was suDjectea to a slight inspection on landing, and in all respects the form all.

ties practised iu an American port were Imitated here. There seems to be a strong disposition to copy from the custom house regniations of the United State. The Government is disposed to be liberal in the ex treme. Ho aouoi wnen ine interior disturbances are ended President Comonfort will still farther cut loose from the antiquated Spanish formalities of the last century, and adopt customs and laws more in keeping with the present times. His Government is certainly popular at present.

The ease with which almost every outbreak is quelled shows that the people ore with bim and he with the people. The following is from another correspond ent: Vera Caua, Feb. 2L, 1856. Eds. Pic.

On the morning of the 13th the Castle of San Juan de Ulua opened fire on the city, and In a few minutes a summons was made to tbe Governor, Don Ignacio de la Llave, to surrender tbe city and pronounce in tavor of the De Haro party. This being refused, a cannonade was opened on the town, doing considerable damage. Thirty two shot struck the Palace; one passed through the Diligendas, taking off tbe leg of a waiter. On the 15th inst, the French frigate Penelope came up from Sacrificios, at the request of the foreign Consuls, to protect foreign residents, and anchored between Fort Cancepcion and the Castle. Nothing was done during the 16th and 17th.

On the night of tbe 18th an expedition was set on foot to assault the Castle, nnder command of our gallant American Gen. Wheat, tut from soma disinclination on the part of the Government, was not carried through. On the morning of the 19th a brisk engagement 1 took place between the Mexican war steamer Guar rero and the Castle. Fort Santiago opened a heavy fire to cover the retreat of the steamer, causing an explosion in the Castle of a magazine, killing sixteen men and wounding thirty or forty others, besides dismounting four guns. During the 20ih the Penelope sailed for Sacrificios, and preparations were made to shell tbe Castle by the Forts Santiago and Conception.

In an hour a white flag was raised on the Castle, and at dark they surrendered unconditionally. Salcedo and other, officers were brought here to prison, and are to be shot in the Plaza de Armas on Saturday morning. We have at present no communication with Mexico. Puebla is still ia a state of siege. The remaining por tion of the country is partially quiet.
