while long lines of the enemy's cavalry
were stationed in the rear, as if awaiting
the shock of battle. Two seperatc char
ges of the latter were distinctly seen re-
pulsed by Col. Riley, who had moved
his brigade al one time to a position par
piallv in the rear of the cnemy's works.
Col. Harvey was exceedingly anxious to
march his cavalry to the scene of action,
but it was deemed utterly impracticable.
The nature of the ground was such that
the infantry even had great difficulty in
| finding the way across the petrcgal, as the
AIexicans term it-ground covered with
sharp, jagged rocks.
Until night had fairly closed in the
fire from the enamy's batteries did not
slacken-it had been a continuous roar
for nearly six hours.-Gen. Scott retired
to San Augustin about eight O'Clock, and
in the midst Of a hard rain which mad
| lust commenced falling. Gems. Twiggs
and Pillow came in about | O'Clock, wet
and completely exhausted. 1t was i'm
possible to use horses on the rough and
exceedingly broken ground on which
they had been operating for nearly twelve
hours.

Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1841-1853, 1847-07-29

In the northern counties of the District, our man
has been occupied until now. He found the people
busy wedding their corn-felds and harvesting their
grain, and has not been fortunate in meeting large
assemblies. Yet he has done good. He has not even
endeavored to prevent coalition between The ele-
ments of whiggery and aboltionism he not having
the counersign to either of their camps. The whig
candidate will reduce the ordinary democratic MAORI
ty in the northern counties by the coaon-probably
create small majority in his own favor. But except
that in one German settlement in Hancock, DIR. Nc
Carly is, somehow understood to be the democratic
candidate, and our man the whig candidate and that
in township in Shelby that roHnteer uOte is yet
misunderstood. Our has pretty successfully
headed one of the ordinary wing eements-lies. The
other element relied upon by whiggery-wealth-
will do some work in this county And it results that in
this county and in Hamilton, (n which last abolition
ism abounds) will be pretty severely beaten.
But in the other northern counties all will be right,
if the democrats come the polls. The two little
difficulties above named will probably be set straight
Our man will be in Brown and Johnson this week and
next, and will call on his friends, and those who do
not wish to fall into the hands of the Phistines,
be up and doing.
The Journal says "Old Nick is after our man.
We acknowledge the fact and say old Nick will
tnue to be "after him." But he don't catch him
Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1841-1853, 1847-07-29

The Louisville Courier has seemed to vie with the
Louisville Journal in its abusive attacks upon the
Indiana volunteers especially since the battle of Bue
ma Vista. One of its latest ebullutions Of spite is
the following, relative to the re-appointment of Brig.
Gen. LANE:
"Another most unfortunate appointment! In aciu-
al ignorance of military duties, and in entire lack
of all the requisites of skilful commander, we are
compelled to regard Gen. LANE about par
with Gen. Pillow His want of military knowledge
displayed Buena Vista, the cause of the loss
of many brave men under his command and came
very near losing the victory. Gen. LANE has much
very much, to answer for, and an outraged and In
jured public will yet compel him to answer for the
calamities his incompetency Cccasioned the brave
Indiana Volunteers"
Upon this the Cincinnati Enquirer remarks
"Generals TAYLOR and Wool, give entirely diff
ferent account of Gen. LANES conduct and services
upon the field at Buena Vista,-but suppose they
know very little in the matter, compared with the
common sianderer Of the Courier. 1t is probable
that having party purposes to in the prepaa
ton of official documents, they fully candid
and impartial Judges, as the man who snugly en-
sconsed in his arm chair at home endeavors to manu-
facure political capital by traducing the brave
who have been engaged in serving the country in the
field"
In thus abusing Gen. Lane, the Courier gratfes
its propensities in two particulars first, its spite
against the volunteers of this State whom has libel
led from the beginning; and secondly, that hatred Of
every democratic General in the field, which is felt
in common by nearly all the wing papers, and which
has manifested itself on every occasion that offered
itself, which they could create. Santa Anna, in
their opinion, is splendid General and brave man
second only TO Gen. Taylor; but the democratic Gene
rails on side, they say, all fools towards
and entirely unfit for the stations they occupy. Their
judgment is just about equivalent to their patriotism
and both are very conspcuously developed. Talk
about the tories and cowboys of the Revolution They
we're not half as mean as the Mexican wings of to-
day, though they may have been treacherous in
disposition.
We invite attention, by the way, to a reply of
Gen. Lane to the recent attack Of Marshall of KY,
which has been accidentally delayed in consequence
of the pressure of other 1t exposes some of
the misrepresentation well the false positions
assumed by Marshall.
