THE VVAR. Our last new from tbe aeat of war, gave an account of tbe attack of tbe guerrilla on a large train of wagons and mules, on the march, from Vera Cruz toward Puebla. Oo Sunday morning last, news was received that after (be attack on tbe train under command of Col. Mclotosh, and the anivalof reinforce ment under Gen. Cadwallader, h proceeded on to Geo. Scott. A email empty train of wagons with no eacoit, except 150 sick, wounded, and discharged soldiers, went fom Jalapa to Vera Cruz without being molested more (bau once, and that out by a small party who fired on them and killed three men. Gen Cadwallader bad set bis plana to over-, take the paity who attacked Col. Mcintosh, lie said he was determined to have a settle ment with them if possible. We have no tidings yet, as to whether he overhauled them or not. Gen Scott haa evacuated Jalapa, and made Perote his principal depot. In consequence, many of the inhabitants of that place are re moving also, being afraid of the -guerillas. It was rumored that Vera Cruz was to be abandoned as a depot, and a depot to be opened at Tunpan, a mall port considerably north of Vera Cruz, which the rumor says will be within 75 miles of Perote. Troops were daily arriving at Vera Cruz, and a letter from tbeie, dated June 1 3, ay there were then 1000 ready to piocced to the iiiletior. A letter dated the 14th from Vera Cruz, says that the Mexican guerillas threw up a small obstruction at the National Bridge, to prevent the passage of Gen. Cadwallader and tbe ttaiu, but they were soon dulodged, with the loss of one or two killed, and probably a dozen wounded. About three miles beyond the bridge they had auother sharp encounter, but the Mexicaus fled; and it is supposed tbat this train was annoyed all the way. It id said that Gen. Shields has recovered so far as to give up the idea of going home, and intends to see it out. A letter from Puebla, dated May 28, an nounces the arrival of Gen. Scot I there on that day, with an escort of 200 dragoons and 50 rifle. He took quarters at the palace. Auother letter dated Puebla, May 30, says there are liow no troops between this city aud Mexico, nor are there any fortifications, as has been reported, at Rio Frio, or El Penou. It was reported that Altnoute was to be shot, at the city of Mexico, for holding treasonable correspondence with (en. Scott. A letter dated Puebla, June 3, nays the force at Puebla was 6000 men, 500 wagons, and 5000 horses aud mules. This writer also says that Santa Anna is hated by the clergy, aud Herrerais their favorite, at Puebla. Gen Scott makes it a point to treat the clergy with great respect, aud thereby win ihem over. There were said to be about 20,000 troop in the city of Mexico ; but with nu organiza tion, or good arms. Capt. Walker, of the Ranger, took a ride out from Perote aud captured 19 guerillas, and set thern to cleaning tbe gutters or other filthy places about Peiote. LATER ADVANCE OF THE ARMY.

LATE and IMPOltTAN 1 from MEXICO. The tnain interest excited by thi- arrival, (says our slip,) centres in the report commu nicated to the Jas. L. Day, by Mr Clinton, the pilot of Tampico. who boarded her on the 17th, off th3t city. He itated that they were in daily expectation of an attack from the Mexicans, who were reported to be 1500 strong in the vicinity of the city. On the night of the lilh inst., a demonstration was made by the Mexicans in Tampico to rise. The American authorities, however, bad timely information of the contemplated move ment, and to suppress it, if attempted, called out the troops, who lay on their arms all night. There was then no demonstration of revolt made. On the 15th inst. a party of Mexican lan cers attacked the outposts at Tampico and drove the sentinels into the city. On the 16th a party of rancheros attacked the pilot station and were greeted by a discharge from half a dozen musket, when they retreated. The barque Mary, of Baltimore, put into Tampico on the 16th instant for supplies and repairs. She was bound for Vera Cruz with 200 volunteer-, which she landed at Tampico. The most important pari of the intelli gence brought by this arrival is the flattering prospect of peace. Capt. ood, of the Jas. L. Day, informs us that information had been received at Vera Cruz before the Day left, that (Jens. Scott and Worth, with the main body of the army, had advanced as far as Rio Frio, without opposition, and were met at that place by a deputation from the capital, with nronroxitions for peace- The its walls from Jaranta and Rebolledo, one j of which, iu a gray friar's dress was just pointed out to me. Persons in the interest and pay or promise of pay of the Mexi can authorities. Mexicans by birth as well as Spaniards, are also in the employ of our authorities in this city, some of them receiv ing large salaries and holding offices of trust connected with our Courts, and different departments in administrative and clerical capacities, ready at any moment to turn over their files and books to parties with whom their natural sympathies lie ; people openly rejoice in the recent success for success it is of the guerrillas over our troops. The Spanish paper here daily teerns with covert appeals to the sympaties of the foreigners, and the patriotism oi the Mexicans; mag nifies our losses and the Mexican gain?, makes a great display of wrongs inflicted on our side, and patient suffering on the part of injured Mexico, and all passes unnoticed as far as I can see. All the leading men amongst the guerril las, now are Spaniards, and also many of the rank and file. Since I commenced this page, I have seen Dr. , who has just arrived with thirty wounded and dead men from .the train the latter have died on their way here, from the severitv of their wounds, and many of the wounded are in such a state that they will probably sink under the amputating knife. The train had reached the bridge when this party left, and the fight had been suspended for the moment. The General (Cadwalader) however, expected to meet the enemy in full force at Encerro, or at Cerro Gordo, and will have to fight every inch of his way to Jalapa, or, indeed, to Perote, as we have reason to believe that our troops have eva cuated the former post. I am told that in one onset made by the guerrillas on a comparatively ill-protected section of the train, an important money wagon came near falling into Iheir hands the one containing nearly a hundred thousand dollars in gold, but by extraordinary exer tions it was saved, with the loss of about a thousand dollars. So confident were the banditti that they would have their own way in the matter, that they were congratulating one another in good English on their suc cess, and one of them call out to the teams ters, who are helpless in such cases, ''ah ! we have got your specie now ! " But " that was a mistake of his' We have now more than a thousand troops lying at Vergara here, within three miles of the city walls, and why, in the name of wonder, they are not on the road to rein force Gen. Cadwallader, is a question asked twenty times a day, without receiving an answer. Seven hundred arrived to-day, and are now nearly all on shore. They might, with proper energy, also be on the road to-mor- row. v no is responsible lor criminal delays which attend the despatch of the others, I know not, but certain it is that there is a shameful degree of apathy in some quarter.

On Saturday evening last, Messrs St. Vrain, Bent, Blair, Chadwick, Folger and other, arrived here from Santa Fe, which place they left on the 13th ult. Everything was quiet when they left. Ijieut. Col. VVil lock was at Taos with his battalion. No apprehension of a new outbreak was felt, un . j ... less our forces in mat quarter snould oe di minished. The populace is kept still, only though fear. Ou 5th April, It. Col. Jackson was iu command at Chihuahua, which place appears not to have been abandoned. Thi parly left Bent's Fort on the 26th ult., aud came through to West port iu 14 days. The Indians are very troublesome along the whole route, and it id supposed that some of the Mexicans are among them, instigating them to plunder. They have iuu off and killed two-thirds of the governmeut mules, cattle, &c, at the different grazing grounds, also a poitiou of thoo belonging to Beut, St. Vrain, . Co. Hardly a train passes along the Santa Fe trace, without a skirmish.- T.nu sr a m rawnees and Lumauches are at open war. We stated a few days ago that the Stouz, Uelawares hauee-, aud taws, were on their way south, threatening to exterminate the Pawnee. 1 he latter tribe, which num bets only about $00 lodges, is therefore in teal danger. It has beeu very troblesome to traders for a lung period. The Cheyennes and Arrapahoes are alio hostile to each other. On the 2Sih ult. the wagons belonging to Bent, St. Train, & Co., and to Win. Tbarp, were attacked by a party' of Indians, who took moredixty mules and horses, and s'xty catUe. Mr Tharp, when pursuing a butlalo S00 yard from camp. was. killed, but Mr De Liale escaped. Those Indians were thought lo be Arrapahoes. When this party left Santa Fe, an expres from Gen. Kearny was daily expected, as it was known to have arrived at Gieen river. The despatches taken out in Januafyby Capt. S. I. Sublette were met near California. The voluuteers were expecting lobe reliev ed in June, and all were anxious to gethome.

Having arrived at the Exchange Hotel, Mayor Davies addressed the President as follows : Mr President : It affords me the highest gratification to welcome you, in the name of the citizens of Baltimore, upon this your nrst visit to our city, since, by the voice of a free people, vou have beeu chosen the Chief Mag istrate of the republic, and to tender to you, sir. as 1 now do, tbe hospitalities of the city, most freely and cordially, during your so mum among us. Ihe people ol Baltimore have, upon all occasions, when an opportu nity has been afforded them, not been back ward in the-expression of their appreciation of such of their fellow-citizens whose lives have been devoted to the true glory and prosperity of their country, either in the field or tbe cabinet ; and most happy are ihy, on the present occasion, to greet you, sir, and exchange congratulations, as American citi zens may well do, upon the prosperous con- i . . - j ! - . union oi our ocioveo country, and the oril- liant prospects which a wait her future destiny. I renew again, sir, the assurance, in the name of the whole people, that the citizens t Baltimore esteem themselves happy to welcome vou as their distinguished guet, and most gladly will they embrace tbe oppor tunity of testifying, in person, the warmth of their regard, and their, p'ofound respect for you, sir, the honored head of a United people The President briefly replied : Sir, I acknowledge gratefully the kind re ception I have met with to-day among the people of Baltimore, and the tender of the hospitalities of ihe city you have made, as the o'gan of the municipal authorities. I have, indeed, been welcomed, in tbe most gratify ing maimer, to one of the most beautiful and interesting cities in our whole country, re nowned as it has been in our history, as the Monumental city, by the memoriils of the gallant achievements of her sons. In the presence of so much hospitality and courtesy, I feel myself in the society of . my countrymen, and in the home ol frie litis. I have long desired to visit '', but it has not before been convenient for me to do so. After more than two years of almost constant confinement and of uu-emittihii atlcn'iou to inv responsible public duties, 1 have availed myself f the presvnt occasion, when I heve reason to suppose 1 can, without detriment to the public service, be absent for a few days from the seat of government.

I thank vou, sir. His excellency then passed into the rotun da of the Exchange, where he received the citizens generlly,"and, from 3 to 5 -o'clock, they conti-iued to pass be'ore him in one uninterrupted concourse, all anxious to pay the proper tribute of respect to the Chief Magistrate of .a free people. They were received by M'Polk in hi peculiar bland and kind manner.

About 4 o'clock, tbe President arrived at tbe Navy Yard, accompanied by the numer ous delegation which weul to Wilmington in the steamboat George Washington to escort him to the city. The booming of the brazen throated war dog, as they poured forth the national salute, the ringing of steamboat bells, and the shouts of tbe vast multitude collected at tbe landing, announced tho approach of our honored guest. The long line of shipp ing fronting the city, with the stars and stripes floating at their roast.bead, aud the decks crowded from bow lo stern with anxious ex pectant, presented an enlitening display. As the boat landed her distinguished cargo at the wharf, the " old Commodore," (Stewart,) with a grllaiitry that would have done credit to a more youthful office, assisted by Major Gen. Patterson and other officer of the army and unvy, conducted the President to his quartcr in the Navy Yard, where, after par taking some iefie?hmcnts, the line was form ed, and the processinu moved through the priucip tl streets of ihe city, cheered with the loud huzaa and waving of handkerchiefs from he windows as they passed along. The fine di-play of military and numerous concourse of citizens, in carriages artd,oi) ho'sebuck, accompanied by sevcial bands of music, was highly creditable to tbe committee of ariaugemeiits, and flatteriug to the Execu tive, who occupied a harouche drawn by four white horses, decorated with flags. As the procession halted before the door of the Vice President Ihe welkin rang wi:h tbe hout of the multitude, and, after a few appropriate re marks, iu which the Preside;-! thanked the citizens -for the fluttering reception, he retired in the house, and the line dispersed. The greatest enthusiasm was evinced about mid night iu the neighborhood of Mr Dallas', where 2.U00 or 3,000 persons assembled to hear ihe serenade by three German musical assoc iations, which elicited rounds of ap plause from the deli.hted assemblage.
