Extract ora letter from La Barita.
ala BARlrA, MExIoo,

May IT, 1896
"Mr Scarett told me he had given you account
of the deeds Of our gallant little army on the 9Th
and 9th--days which will ever be memorable In our
military annals. West Point told on that occasion
Every is praising Captain Mansfield for his in
defatigable zeal and industry during the siege Of
Fort Brown.
"The general has determined to bring his forces
over to this side of the river. am here to select
site for the depot Of our base Of operations and
TO intrench it, This village is about ten miles from
the mouth Of the river, and the same distance from
Brazos Santiago, or Fort Polk Point lsabel.) The
prominent features which might induce to decide
upon this the proper point for the depot are, that
il il the first high land you reach In ascending the
river; that il is above hurricane tides that the
ground is naturally formed for a military position,
commanding everything around Il, and commanded
by nothing IL is equl-dlstant, and not very mac
cessble, from all our other depots. The worst road
is to Fort Polk-while the direct line Is only ten
miles, the only road for wagons is over twenty.
We less than twenty miles from Matamoras.
General Taylor desired cross the river yesterday
but his artillery short Of ammunition, and he
had no boats. (Where is the ponton train') We
do not know where he is tonight, nor do we know
whether the enemy is in force on this side and near
US. Colonel Wilson is in command. He has four
companies Of his regiment-lst infantry, and four Of
volunteers. have one feld-piece and six artillery
men under my orders. Lieutenant Hamilton, LIST
infantry Is my assistant. his movement up the
river was intended TO have been a combined one
with Commodore Conner. IL has been delayed two
days by unfayorable weather, rendering the bar
too rough. The commodore's limited stay here COM
PEELED him to notify the general upon his
cooperation in an expedition up the river. This
morning, at daylight, started the .Ntpa "a river
boaD out from the Braros; she entered the Rio
Bravo without difficulty by 9a m. | rode down
the beach. Col. Wilson's command had been BIZ
vouackng for two days side of the mouth
We crossed them all over by ID before p. m, the
column route up the river. The banks Of
the river but slightly higher than the surface Of
the water for some miles up. The whole country
low and filled with lagoons. There is a high ridge
Of sand hills some twenty feet high, extending up
and down the coast, resting Immediately on the
beach The country back Of this ridge is one vast
plain Of prairie and lagoon. The road up the river
is oleraby good. The river is very serpentine The
road from bend to bend. The distance by river
nearly double that by road. The road up the right
banu is skrted to the LEFT and south by lagoons until
yok reach Barita; that march ola column up this
| side was by means exposed to a flank attack.
| The steamboat deck gave me fine opportunity Of
observing the country. We find no difficulty
IN making Of the river for Transporting our sup
plies. Very respectfully,
| Yours &c

MILITARY MATTERS.

GEN. GAMEs-We learn that General Gaines
has not yet received any definite instructions from
Washington, but has merely been officially notified
from the War Department Of the passage Of the bill
by Congress, and the issuing ofthe proclamation
by the President and directed to govern himself
cordingly. Under this instruction, however, the va
rious companies as they come in and join with some
of the regiments now raising will be mustered into
the service and despatched as soon as they can pos
sibly be equipped.
