CAPT. CHARLES HANSON.

The following beautiful tribute to the mem
ory of Capt. Hanson, of the 9TH Infantry, who
fell al the late battles of Coutreras and Churu-
busco, is from the pen of the Senior editor Of
the Richmond Republican
Among the gallant officers who fell in the late
battles, we observe with deep regret the name of
Capt. CHARLES HANSON Of the 18th Infantry At
the beginning of the Mexican contest we were ia
vored with several interesting and well written
sketches from his hand but discovering the ex-
stence of the army order prohibiting correspon-
dence by officers of the army, before it
nounced by the Secretary, he appraised of the
fact, and with the nice sense Of honor and a sol
der Is duty which over marked the man, laid aside
his pen. AT the bombardment of Fort Brown,
his GOODNESS and intrepidty were conspicuous
His gallantry in the storminc division of Worth
at Monterey for him Captancy. At Vera
Cruz he fully shared the gores and dangers of his
brethren in arms, and at Cerro Gordo, his daring
valor won the highest encominfns from his COM
handing officers the Colonel stating in his report
that he was one of the first who placed his feet
within the frowning Gibraltar which rested on
the summit of that almost inaccessible mountain.
drawer, purer and more generous spirit never
breathed. In one Of his last letters to his rela-
tives, instead Of dwelling upon his own particpa-
ton IN the recent battle of Cerro Gordo, his mind
seemed occupied with the sufferings of his wound
ed men, and the pleasure which ne derived from
seeing their happiness at some extra comforts
which he had been enabled to provide for them
Capt. Hanson was one of the most accomplished
gentlemen, as well as one ofthe most chiyalrous
officers in the service and better than this, amid
the temptations of the camp and the excitement
of the field maintained to the last an exalted
Christian character which commanded the love
and respect even of those who usually regard re-
hgion with aversion and ridicule. Most sincere
ly do we sympathze with his afflicted father, MIR
J. X. Hanson, Of Washington, who has lost in him
one of the remaining props of his old age, having
already given another gallant SON 10 the country,
Capt. w. X. Hanson, who died from disease con-
tracted in glorious career in the Florida war.
Thus pass away, in the morning Of their youth,
the good, the generous and the brave These
are the victims Of war--these, and broken hearts
and desoated homes, its wretched trophies

The veDerable editor Of the Court Journal

discipline Of this Prince of political drill SER
geants. But we believe it is no, unusual for
a Colonel who has won renown at The head
of his regiment, to forfeit his military reputa
ton after being promoted to the command Of
a brigade. So the editor of the Union seems
in fair way to become shorn of the laures
won by the editor Of the Enquirer. In spite
of his fulminations against the "moral trea-
son" Of presuming to question the wisdom
and propriety Of the war measures of the pre-

Owe always believed and still believe, that Tex
