Gen. Scott on the Advance—Order of March
—Arrival of Gen. Pierce at Puebla—Es
cape of Major Gaines and Midshipman
Rodgers—Skirmishes with Guerillas.
By telegraphic despatch from Meh
-1 mond, the Evening Bulletin has receiv
'eriiitelligence from New Orleans to the
20th inst. The steamer Galveston arri
ved at New Orleans from Vera Cruz on
the preceding day. She left Vera Cruz
on the 12th inst., touching at Tampico
on the 14th, and Brazos on the 15th.—
Her news is both interesting and impor
tant, and comes so direct, that its au
thenticity cannot be questioned.
Gen. Fierce with his command of
3000 men, reached Puebla on the 6th.—
During the whole of his march from
Vera Cruz he was harassed by the guer
illas: but so judicious were his arrange
hnents, and so prompt was he anticipa-
r
ting and repelling the attacks of these
roving banditti, that he did not lose any
of his men, or a single article belonging
to his train. He was warmly welcomed
by Gen. Scott.
The soldierly appearance of Gen.
Pierce's command, when entering Pue
bla, is much commended by Kendall in
his letters.
As soon as a junction was formed
Oh Gen. Fierce, Rot a moment was
lost by Gen. Scott to put his army in
iotion for an advance movement on the
apital. On the same day, the Gth, (this
s the last advices which the Galveston
brings,) Gen. Scott issued the following
raders:—
. -- Gen. Twigg's division, forming the
advance of. the army, to leave Puebla
on the 7th—the following day. General
Quitman's division on the Bth ; General
Worth's division on the 9th; and Gen
eral PilloW's division on the 10th. It
-as currently reported that Geri. Scott
would leave Puebla with the advance on
the 7th.
General Pierce will remain in com
mand at Puebla, although one statement
l l'
has it that Col. Childs is assigned to
that duty.
Mention is made in one of Mr. Ken
dall's letters, of the death of Lieutenant
Hill, of the 2d dragoons, and of Dr.
Hamner, of the South arolina regi
ment,
Major J. P. Gaines and Mid. Rogers,
so long confined in the city of Mexico,
succeeded in effecting their escape, and
iteached, Gen. Worth's quarters, at Pue
bla, on the 4411. They report that prep
arations, on an extensive scale, were
making to place the capital in a proper
state of defence, although the Mexicans
did not intend to await the attack of
Gen. Scott. Santa Anna had left, or
was on the eve of leaving the capital, at
the head of a large and well appointed
army, for the purpose of again meas
uring swords with the American Gen
eral. His men were in excellent spirits,
llnd so strong in numbers and confidence
that they felt sanguine of success. Santa
Anna's force is variously estimated from
fifteen to twenty thousand men. It is
not likely that he has more than fifteen
thousand men with him. The
anticipa
ted, battle, it is thought, would be fought
'Esome eight or ten miles this side of the
•apital.
The train which left Vera Cruz on
he 6th, under the command of Major
ally, of the 9th infantry, has been
onstantly harassed by the guerillas in
his march into the interior. Lieut. Col.
'downwas to have commanded, but is
'down with the yellow fever.
The Sun of Anahuac, of the 12th,
has some interesting reports from the
army train. Near the National Bride,
Major Lally's train had a severe brush
with the guerillas. Captains Baldwin
and Caldwell, of the Voltiguers, were
wounded, and so was also Capt. Cum
mings. Twenty-five Mexicans were re
ported as among the killed, and eight
Americans. Major Lally had sent to
Vera Cruz for reinforcements, as a hard
fight was expected at the National
Bridge. Major L. had also a skirmish
with the guerillas at the ruined village
of Santa Fe. The loss was trifling on
both aides. _ _ .
The Vera Cruz correspondents of the
New Orleans Delta, under date of the
I•2th, say that several merchants of that
city had received letters from Puebla,
positively announcing that Gen. Scott
would leave Puebla on the 7th inst.—
The correspondents of the Picayune say
that he would not leave until the follow.
ing day—the Bth—with General Quit-
Pman's division.
Great credit is given to Captain Lull;
of the Rifles, for his conduct in several
engagements with the guerillas, who
were repulsed several different times.
The Sun of Anahuac, of the 11th,
says the Secretary of the Spanish Lega
tion arrived at Vera Cruz and resigned.
Also gives rumors that a messenger,
guarded by two hundred Mexican cav
lolry, had arrived at Puebla with des
patches to General Scott from the Cap
,ftal. The health of Vera Cruz is hri
toying.
Nothing later or more definite heard
om Gen. Taylor's camp.
The New Orleans Times has a report
of Santa Anna having positively left the
Capital and marching on Puebla, with
h f (teen thousand men and fifteen pieces
- cannon. This confirms Maj, Gaires'
statement.
11 The Mount Savage Iron Works
are to be sold under execution, on the

it bond•holdera and others.

HENRY CLAY AT CAPE MAY.
On Thursday, 19th inst., a committee
of gentlemen from New York and New
Haven arrived at Cape May for the pur
pose of inviting HENRY CLAY to visit
their respective cities. Deputations
were also there from Philadelphia and
Trenton for the same purpose. On the
part of the committees, Mr. Dean of
New York, addressed Mr. Clay, setting
forth the purpose of their visit, in a truly
eloquent speech, to which he replied as
follows :
He commenced by alluding to the
presence of other committee, on similar
errands to the one from New York—es
pecially from Philadelphia, Trenton and
New Haven—and then continued :
Fellow Citizens—The eloquent address
which has just been delivered, has had
the effect almost to induce me to adopt I
the language which was used on a more
solemn occasion, " Thou almost per
suadest me" to go to New York. But
in all that uprightness of my nature ;
which I have endeavored to practise, 1
must tell you the objects and motives
which have brought me to the shores of
the Atlantic. I returned to my residence,
after passing the winter at New Orleans,
on the 23d or 21th of March last, and a ;
day or two afterward melancholy intel
ligence
came to me. I have been ner
vous ever since, and was induced to
take this journey, for I could not look !
upon the partner of my sorrows without
experiencing deeper anguish.
[Mr. Clay was here completely over
come by his feelings, covered his face
with his hands and was silent for sev
eral minutes. At length with an effort
he recovered himself and resumed.] I
Every thing about Ashland was asso
ciated with the memory of the lost one;
the very trees which his hands assisted
me to plant, served to remind me of his
loss. Had the stroke come alone, I I
could have borne it, with His assistance,
and sustained by the kindness of my
friends and fellow citizens, with meek
ness and resignation. But of eleven
children four only remain. Of six love
ly and affectionate daughters not one is
left. Finding myself in a theatre of
sadness, 1 thought I would fly to the
mountain top, and descend to the ocean
wave, and by meeting with the sympa
thy of friends, obtain some relief to the
sadness which encompassed me. I came
for private purposes, and from private
motives alone. I have not desired these
public manifestations, but have rather
desired to escape from them. My friend I
and traveling companion, Dr. Mercer,will
tell you, that in Virginia, in every sec
tion of the State of my birth, I have i
been implored to remain, if only for a I
few hours,
to exchange congratulations I
with my friends, but I invariably refu
sed and only remained in each place
sufficiently long to exchange one vehi
cle for another. You may imagine that
I made a visit to Philadelphia, but I was
accidentally thrown into Philadelphia.—
When I arrived in Baltimore, I learned
that the most direct route to this place,
was by the Delaware. I had no public
object in view in taking that route, and
yet indifferent I am not nor cannot be to
these manifestations of popular regard
nor to anything which connects me with
the honor welfare and glory of my coun
try.
Gentlemen of the Committee of New
York: I have truly and sincerely dis
closed the purpose of the journey, but.
I cannot but deeply feel this manifesta
tion of your respect and regard. It is'
received with thankfulness, and excites I
the warmest feelings of my heart, that
I, a private and humble citizen, without
an army, without a navy, without even
a constable's staff, should have been
met at every step of my progress with
the kindest manifestation of feelings—
feelings of which a President, a Mon-
arch, or an Emperor might well be proud.
No—l am not insensible to these to
kens of public affection and regard. I
am thankful for them all. To you, gen
tlemen of the Committee of New York,
who, in behalf of the 400,000 individu
als whom you represent, have taken so
much trouble, I am deeply thankful for
this manifestation of your regard, but I
must reluctantly decline the honor of
your invitation. And you gentlemen of
the other committees, to your fellow
citizens of Trenton, New Haven and
Philadelphia, I must beg of you to ex
cuse me, and trust to their affection to
do so, for if I do not place myself on the
affection of my countrymen, whither
should I go, and where should I be ?
on the wide ocean without a compass
and without a guide 1
I must beg of you, gentlemen of all
these committees to retrace your steps,
charged and surcharged with my warm
est feelings of gratitude—go back char
ged with warmest thanks from me, and
tell my friends that nothing but the cir
cumstances in which I am placed, no
thing—for we may as well mingle a
laugh with our tears, and borrow the
words of the Irish Ambassador, "situa
ted as I am, and circumstanced as I am"
—prevents the honor of meeting you.—
Tell them—and I hope that general re
sponse will be considered as a specific
answer to each of the Committees—
'that you are charged with the expres
sion of the best feelings of my heart.—
And you gentlemen of New York, be
assured that among the recollections of
this journey this visit will be paramount,
and the circumstances which led to it.

DR.LE Roy's.
Vegetable Universal Pills,
The only known Medicine that at the same
time purges, purifies and strengthens
the system.
LONDON, July 7, 1846.
DR. LE ROY'S Pills are a new medicine which
has just appeared, and is fast taking the places
of all others of the same class. These pills are
composed of many ingredients, but the two princi
pal ones are Sarsaparilla and Wild Cherry, en uni
ted that they act together; the one, through its
admixture with other substances, purifying and
purging, while the other is strengthening the sys
tem. Thus those pills ore at the same time tonic
and opening; a desideratum long and eagerly
sought for by medical men, but never before din
mimed. In other words they do the work of two
medicines, and do it much better than any two we
know of; for they remove nothing from the system
but the impurities ; so that while they purge they
strengthen; and hence they cause no debilitation,
and are followed by no re-action. Dr. Le Roy's
pills have a wonderful influence r n the blood ; they
not only purify without weakening it, but they re
move all noxious particles from the chyle befote it
is converted into fluid, and thus make impure
blood an utter impossibility. As there is no debil
itation, no there is no nausea or sickness attending
the operations of this most excellent of medicines,
which never strains or tortures the digestive func
tions, but causes theta to work in a perfectly natur
al manner; and hence persons taking them do not
become pale and emaciated, but the contrary; for
while it is the properly of the Sarsaparilla, united
as it is with other Ingredients, to remove all that is
foreign and impure, it is equally the property of
the Wild Cherry to retain all that is natural aral
sound; and hence a rebuilt state of health is the
certain result of their united operations.

In the short space of two yeirs. it has acquired a

The cheapest and best medicine in ex

sons of a full habit, who are subject to
headache, giddiness, drowsiness, and
singing in the ears, arising from too
great a flow of blood in the head, should
never be without them, as many danger
ous symptoms will be entirely carried
off by their immediate use.

'Yhi's is to certify that my AVFC was
afflicted with the Dyspepsia for

which, to my astonishment, effected a

them without a rival before the public.

Ho! ye who pant with failing breath,
And pine away and die ;

And light anew your eye.
How sweet it melts upon the tongue,
How grateful to the breast !
A glorious theme for poet's song,
Soothing his cough to rest.
Hance ! favored of the God's, art thou,
A blessing to thy race,
Let laurels flourish on thy brow,
And wealth those laurels graco.
When heroes are forgotten ; kings
Defunct; or, ceased to rain;
Glory, for thee, shall flap her wings, .•
Thou conquerer of pain.
