Iette, contains the annexed notice of our inter
esting young countryman, Lieut.. Col. Fremont.
The letter is dated July 20:
Sol Fremont's party arrived here yoster-
day, having had some pretty hard fighting with
the MoxIcans and Indians. They number about
two hundred, aud are tho most daring and har-
dy set OF fellows ever looked upon. They arc
splendid marksmcn, and can plant bullet in
an enemy's head with their horses at a full gal
loP. They never think Of eating bread, but
live upon meat all the time. They never sleep
in honsc but on the ground, with blanket
around them, their >addlo for a pillow, and
rifle by their side. | should like give you
some more minute account Of them but tins

FRIENDS YEARLY MEETING. We have re-
ceived printed copy Of ''extracts fom the
minutes of the Yearly meeting of Friends, held
at Lombard street, ," in this city, and are graft
fled TO learn from it that the affairs of this plain
and unassuming sect arc in hourishng condi-
ton. The report of the committee on Indian
affairs, submitted by P. E. Thomas, shows
that the Seneca Indians, under the care and at
tention ofthe Friends, are greatly improving
in tneir habits, morals, and means of procuring
a livelihood, and that the blessings of educa-
ton, placed within their reach, are awaited of
with avidty. The Friends have established at
Cattaraugus a manual labor school, for the in
struction ofyoung female Indass in household
and domestic affairs, and also support day
school of both sexes, which is fully attended,
Various other interesting facts are mentioned
in this report, for which we regret we have not
room.

| MONTEREY, Mexico, Sept. 20, 1876.
will now try to give you some account OF
the battles at tins place, hut expect you have
heard of it before tins. 1t is admitted to be
one oil the greatest victories ever gained IN this
or any other county. On the l9lh at twelve
o'clock, the enemy opened their batteries on
our advance guard, throwing one lS-pound
shot within ten feet of General Tuylor-how-
ever he never winked. Capt. RIdgIey picked
il up in corn-feld, remaIkng 10 Col Wat.
son, that on the morrow he would return it
with interest. We turned about and marched
hack about three miles to a beautiful valley Of
orange and lime groves, with excellent lime
stone water, and encamped.
On Sunday, the 20th, General Worth with
1900 Infantry, one battery OF eight pieres and
one mortar 10 throw a she'll weighing ! so lbs,
with forty wagons, went round to the north
west of the city in the rear of the Bishops Pa
lace. The Palace has two batteries, each with
twenty lS.poundeTs on it. The same after
noon, at a O'Clock, the ,ng-roll was beat, and
the troops put in motion; so out we went TO-
wards the front Of the town, where We were
formed in the order of battle, which proved
only demonstration OF attack to attract Mt
tention and enable Gen. Worth to gain his
position. However, as the evening sci in very
dark and rainy, with the shade OF the noun
tam, he soon gained it, and tho Mexicans open
ed their batteries on lis. The shot and shells
flew thick over us, and after we were home IN
camp they Fl, ed in the same direction. BY 2
o'clock tho same night, uno6served by them,
our company planted three mOrtaTs within SIX
or seven hundred yards of their battery, and at
s O'Clock on Monday morning, the 2Ist, we
went at 1t, the grape, cannlster aud round shot
flying as thick as It was possible for them to
fly from their forts. We charged three times
and were beaten back.
In the second charge, Col. Watson lost his
horse and was shot in The arm, aud IN the third
! charge, he was shot through the throat and fell
MORALLY wounded. Our charging these battle
res is admitted to have been murder in the
first degree When we would see the fash Of
their big guns, we would fall down ana dodge
their shot. Their houses were all lined with
infantry, and they used Eng sh muskets.-
On the 24th at 9 O'Clock, they ceased hustili-
ties, and at 10 o'clock, on the 25th, the Mexi-
can forces marched out with SIX pieces, his pri-
vate property, which Gen. Taylor allowed Ann
pudia to take, us he stated he wished he (Gen.
Taylor would let him have tn IN tor his own
protection. So we gave INN six pound pie
ces and 90 rounds OF an unitinn Thus n for
titled city was taken, aud from 25, 900 to 80, 900
Mexlcans driven out by 5000 American troops.

Thus terminated, as far as our battalion was
concerned, one Of the longest and bloodost hat

to say our battalion only lost six killed al d
twenty wounded. | had about thirty eight

killed and three wounded; yet every one If
thuse that escaped has tod inc he did not en-
pect to live through the day, and most of them
had their clothes struck by balls.

completely were my rrnks raked by the shot,
Above, below, alongside, between legs and aims
every where the balls whslcd and howled -
The air seemed cut to pieces by the quantity
that the artillery hurled at us, and it would be
childish to tell you ho,c close they came to me,
and what and how many escapes had. Others
will hereafter tell you Of the first days fight at
Monterey, and now tell you that was in that
fight and exposed to shot for nine hours.
