A JUDGE FOR THE WAR.-We have
many instances Of the best of men in the
country volunteering for the Mexican
campaign, but that of Judge Williams of
Iowa, is the most remarkable OF. ALL A
volunteer company paraded in front of the

company is full, was the reply. "Perhaps

ed 10 resist them, as most oil the troops had

improbable that they Intercepted some
party OF traders that was on the way TO
BeXar or Corpus Christi. Houston Ieie
