Captain Vnton's command entered
this place this morning without the least
show Of opposition, the inhabitants
throngine to the Plaza in crowds as the
troops fled into it and stacked their
arms in front Of the house of the Alcadc.
1t seemed to me as though there were
men enough in the square to have bca-
ten US of with nothing else save the
loose rocks lying about; yet not hand
was raised.
Nlier is by far the most pleasant,
cleanly and we'll regulated place we
have yet seen in this part of Mexico. 1t
is built on hill overlooking a clear run
ming stream of the samess name, three
miles from the Rio Grande, and is said
to contain G00O Inhabitants, although l
do not know where they stow them all.
You may well rccollcct that it was in
this place that the Texans under Colonel
Fisher were compelled to surrender, af-
ter they had killed twice their own num-
Der Of Mcxlcans. The houses occupied
by the Texans during the battle were
pointed out, and still bear the marks of
the desperate conflict
l have stated that the number Of the
inhabitants is put down at 60OO; admit
ting that it is 1000, it was still entered
and taken possession Of by % men on
ly-s5 regulars and of McCulloch's
Rangers, acting as mounted guard.
You could not serve any town in the
United States in that way, and this place
is perfect fortification from its position
and the strength of the houses which
are Of stone Capt Command occupies
