GENERAL TAYLOR'S ROUTE.

Gen. Taylor entered Matamoras on or about
the 18th of last May. Since then he has ad-
vanced into the interior as far as Monterey,
now become immortalized in the annals of our
country, distance (from Matamoras) of two
hundred and seventy-nine miles. Saltillo,
where it is said Santa Anna now is, at the
head of 10000 men, is distant from Monterey
about seventy-fve miles. From this point to
San Luis Potosi, is about three hundred and
seven miles From thence to the city of Mex
leo itself, is, according to the best data we can
find, three hundred and ten miles, making the
whole route from Matamoras to the Halls
of the Montezumas," nine hundred and sew
enty-one miles, and from Monterey six hun
dred and ninety two miles: Ifit be true that
Santa Anna, and we have no reason to doubt
it, is at Saltllo, at the head OF an army of 90,
900 men, and has fortified that place, we may
expect to hear of another bloody battle
as soon as the armistce is terminated.

mWe clip the following paragraph fro,

oa-We clip the following paragraph from a
letter published in the Union Of Monday night
last, written by an officer of the Gulf Squad
ron, and dated off Vera Cruz, Sept 22d, 1916.
1t would 60 to confirm the statement made by
correspondent of the New Orleans Picayune,
whose letter we publish in another column, to
the effect that Santa Anna is no1c at Saltillo
with force of 5000 OF 20 900 men:
"The present (Mexican) government has
manifested great activity since its accession to
power, and adopted every measure for Wig
orous prosecution of the war. Detachment OF
troops from the city and other parts a Mexico,
with thirty pieces of artillery, have been late
ly despatched to the north, and by the end OF
the month it is not unlikely they will have a
force of 700 men-or perhaps more, in the
neighborhood of Monterey. 1t is difficult to
say how this large force is to be kept in the
field, as it is.well known the public treasury
is empty. The only money received by the
government, within our knowledge, are the
small sums contributed bv private individuals,
not sufficient to maintain regiment for a
month"
Wilmington journal. [volume] (Wilmington, N.C.) 1844-1895, 1846-10-30
THE NEXT MOVEMENT.

Surprising the rumor to be true conveyed in
one of the letters which we publish from the
New Orleans Picayune, that Santa Anna is
now at Saltillo, at the head of an army of 29,-
900 men, and that orders have gone on by
Major Graham from our government, ordering
Gen. Taylor to break up the armistice, and to
push on towards the city of Mexico, the ques-
ton has been asked, what forces can he COM
mand for immediate advance And whether
he will find himself in situation 10 meet San
ia Anna' We suppose, as matter of course.
that Gen. Taylor will repair the defences of
Monterey and leavea garrison of atleast 900
efficient troops in it. This will weaken him
some. According to the best information we
can obtain, the whole number of troops of all
arms on the banks of the Rio Grande, from it's
mouth to Monterey, is about tifteen thousand.
Of these there are about one thousand five
hundred inefficient from sickness. Of course,
advancing as Gen. Taylor is, into the heart OF
the enemy's country, he will garrison with his
own troops, the principal towns through which
he passes to secure retreat, should such a
thing be necessary. This will take men,
Matamoras, Camargo, and Monterey, will re.
quire at least, we should think, between three
and four thousand troops. This, added to the
sick list, would reduce the number which hi
would be able to bring into the field at any
point above Monterey, to something about ter
thousand. With this number, however, W.
feel assured that Gen. Taylor can cope will
any army which the Mexicans can bring int,
the field and we have no doubt but that 'Olt
Rough and Ready" will. just so soon as h
can get things arranged to his liking, and at
ter the receipt of dispatches from our govern
ment, proceed forthwith towards Saltillo, figh
Ior no fight.

THE CONNECTING LINK.

We notice for some time past, that some of
our contemporaries of the press of this place
and our sister town of Fayetteville, have had
several angry passages on the subject of Rail
Roads We regret this, for it can lead to no
good. For our own part we look upon it as
perfectly natural, and in the order of things,
that the citizens of Wilmington and Fayette-
vile should be anxious, as communities, fol-
their respective projects. But we can see nc
good reason why, in the ardor of their endea.
vors after their respective ends, they should
get angry with each other Certainly, as a
Wilmingtonian, iUe feel no hostility towards
Fayetteville OF its interests. Indeed, we re.
gard its prosperity as intimately connected
with that OF our own town. If we understand
anything of the feelings of the people of VIII
mington, all they want is an open field and fail
play. They feel confident that their project ii
the most feasible one, and they are determined
to carry it through. They do not desire in 81
doing to injure any other section of the State
They only wish, honestly and fairly, to improv,
their own condition, and that of the surround
ing country, if they can We assure on
| friend of the Observer, that, SO far az on
knowledge goes, he is much mistaken, if h,
thinks that there is any feeling of hostilit,
existing in this community towards Fayette
Vile

OHIO ELECTION.

AS we surmised in our last paper, Ohio has
gone for the Wings. That is, she has elected
II Wing Congressman to 9 Democrats and /
Independent The majority for the Wing
Governor is about 1000 votes. The vote,
however, is very small. There was falling
off of nearly $4,000 from the last election. Il
will be remembered that the State, since the
last Congressional election, has been reds
tricted by the Wings, and that is enough to
account for their being able to elect majority
of the Congressman. Indeed, the Wings have
very little to boast of in the result in this
State. Both branches of the Legislature, at
its last session, were largely Wing. Now the
Senate is tie, and the Wing majority in the
House is cut down to some five or six.
