On Saturday last about 700 horses and mules escaped
from the pen through either the csreessness Of the msn

intentionally The misfortune will be- severely ielt by
the Quarernasters Department here rs these horses
and mules intended particularly for the transport
alton of the baggage and provisions OF the troops which
are daily arriving and who may be detained for the
want of them There may be sufficient number left
TO dispatch the troops now here who will doubtless
leave the latter part of this week but for the others who
are expected fear that shall have 10 look 10 New
Orleans for the OF transportation and IN the mean
time our poor soldiers will have to lie here subject TO all
the Diseases of the climate.
The stock keeper has been confined in the Castle OF
San Juan de Ulua and the affair will undergo legain
vestigatiOn.
This makes at n small calculation about 1000 horses
and mules which have been lost and stolen within about
a month and have heard il set down by men who
ought to know all about it at as high as 1900.
Although there 10 a sufficient number OF troops here
10 hold the city against an attack, there are not the
means TO keep in subsection the msraudiDg parties which
constantly hover about the city, and until we get about
800 Rangers here the country daily there VIII

who are brought 10 with other complaints frequently
