to be placed in the statements OF the Mexican press

With respect to the forces of Taylor according to
his report OF the regiments and troops engaged in battle
it appears that they regiments and corps whose

1t may be seen that the many volunteers who accom-
panied the army here included and those only
belonging to Captain Walkers company are counted
1000 men, after making many deductions immensely in
his favor he would have ventured to enter into
action with the reduced number which supposed and
this proved the patience which he sho in under
taking his march, and which, in truth, Ia greatly to his
honor. We have seen what Tay lors forces Now,
