FOREST OF SAN DOMINGO

Camp near Monterey, Sept 27th 1916.
AT meeting OF the officers OF the battalion OF Balti-
appointed committee to give public manifestation
of the regret felt by the battalion and the great loss
has met with in the death of Lieutenant Colonel Will
liam III. Watson
suitable language the deep regret the heartfelt sorrow
entertained by every neuber OF battalion in the sud
den decease glorious though it was of gallant and
chivalrc commander, William II. Watson.
Associated with him from the formation of the bat
talon until the day that he shed his LIES blood in the
cause OF his country we found him true to in
terests and welfare. As sons of Maryland, we will ever
bear witness to his devotion to her honor and his
solcitue that her reputation member Of the confed
eracy should rank with the highest His whole thoughts
his whole actions tended this end, and the citizen sol
ders OF our republic will find brighter example,
more glorious model for imitation than that afforded by
our lamented commander
Pursuing the duties of profession known for its pa
ter In defence OF his countys flag threatened by hos
tile army. Surmounting obstacles which would have
thwarted an ordinary man. ncacuatng the srctest
obedience to the orders of his supeors and enforcing the
most rigid discipline IN his command, he gained alike the
respect OF those above and those below him in authority
He fell whilst CALAMITY leading charge against the
enemy whom he had coveted to meet and, with placid
smile on his counenance, resigned his soul to the God of
soldiers death and burial yet though far from the home
which he loved, and the friends and companions of his
manhood, his grave was watered with the tears Of his
companions in arms, who knew his WORTH and mourned
his DEATH 4G5
We offer our most sincere coincidence and sympathy to
the bereaved family Of the deceased in the common loss
have sustained and hope tighten their sorrow by
assuring them that it is fully shared by the whole bat
talon whose representatives we are.

Correspondence between Gen. Taylor and santa Anna

Correspondence between Taylor and Anna.
The letter OF Santa Anna TO General Taylor upon the
termination of the armistice, given in the New Or
leans Pcayune, will be found by readers in another
column. II is Of course impossible TO say, at present
how far the language used by the Mexican general may
express the sentiments spirit of the Mexican Congress
Certain il is, however, that the letter itself appears to
hold out no prospect OF speedy peace. IL demands
preliminary conditions which country certainly can
never agree In view of the gross ouages the part OF
Mexico which led TO the war; and in view also of the
heavy expenditures which il has entaied upon us. the
REIMBURSEMENT Of all conquess hardly receive
the sanction OF any considerable portion Of the American
people The whole tone OF the Mexican general shows
that the war must yet be vigorously prosecuted if he
expresses the sentiments OF the government Unless the
Mexican Congress shall be governed by wholly oppo-
site spirit OF Justice arms must achieve additional
victories before any just honorable peace can be OBJ
tanned.
II must be remembered, indeed, that Mexico ayows
that she has entered upon this possession
of the whole territory OF Texas. Such Is her claim II
is claim which never be tolerated for moment II
is direct violation at of the well-settled Law OF
Nations, and of our national sovereignty The
spirit in which Mexico has acted since she
menced the Wharf.-The obstnacy with which she has
jected all proiers Of negotiation combine with the
language addressed BY Santa Anna to General Taylor to
confirm the opinion that the stern pressure of alone
can bring that wreched and halfciyzed anarchy which
calls itself the government Of Mexico to listen to the
counsels of reason, OF justice, and OF peace.
