to pursue the Mexican forces to Monte
ry, town some l08 miles from Mata-
moras, and attack them there. 1t is sta
ted that the remnant of their miserable
army have taken refuge in that place.
There seems to be but little prospect of
much more hard fighting at this time
in Mexico; the troops are too dispirited
by their recent losses to desire conflict
with the Americans again. The gal
lantry of the Americans in the late bat
ties have thrown new glories around the
name, and proved them worthy sons of
noble sires, who lived and moved in the
scenes of the revolution.

TO THE CITIZENS OF ABBE.
VILE DISTRICT. u


The McDuGe Guards having tender
ed their services to the Governor, to
meet the requisition for troops upon this
State, and having been accepted as one
of the companies to make up the Regi-
ment of Volunteers, we take this occa-
sion, as the officers of the company, to
invite our fellow-citizens, and especially
those of the Savannah Regiment, to
come forward and join our ranks. We
have now the requisite number of men
to constitute a company but the privi-
lege is extended to increase our number
to hundred men. We are induced to
believe that the gallantry and public
spirit of our citizens will not leave us
long without that number on our list.
Most of those who now belong to the
company are from the saluda Regiment,
and are taken from one section of the
District. We think that our fellow-citi-
zens who compose the other portion of
our District will not be surpassed in du-
ty and patriotism, and will be unwilling
to remain silent and inactive whilst
others are moving in our country's
cause.
The McDuGe Guards will be the
company which is torepresent Abbeville
District among the volunteers VIII. are
called upon to engage in the present
war: and we deem it sufficient to say to
her citizens, that an opportunity is now
afforded them to sustain their we'll
known character for. courage and patri-
otism. -
Those who wish to join the company,
can do so by application to any of the
officers. J. F. MARSHALL, Captain.

The June No. of this interesting jour-

H General ScoTr, by his awkard-
ness and selfishness, has rendered him
self ridiculous in the eyes of the world,
as we'll as offensive to the President, by
his recent movements. The command
Of the army in Mexico, was offered to
him by the President, which he seemed
pleased to accept; but by frivolous excu-
ses delayed marching 10 his post until
his tardiness excited the surprise of the
President, and upon inquiry, he states
that he has no security in marching
against the Mexicans, leaving an enemy
in the rear. The matter is too clear that
the Gen. would prefer remaining be-
hind to lay his plans for the Presidential
campaign, but in this if we are not mis-
taken the enemy will defeat him totally.
If there ever was chance for him for
the Presidency, his recent course of all
others is the best adapted to blast and
ruin his expectations in that quarter.
We believe that relieving him of the
command and giving it to Gen. TAYLOR,
will meet with the appreciation of the
whole country, for he certainly since the
commencement of hostilities, has proved
himself worthy of all the honors govern
ment can confer upon him, and the
name of TAYLOR, is destined to be bright
upon the page of history.

It is stated that the Wings of

from citizens of, other States.
