The Victories In MexicO-Tribute TO the Me
mories Of the Gallant Dead.

mOIleS Oh the VALIANT OeoOs
Yesterday being the day appointed by the joint
committee Of the Common Council for the pur-
pose, solemn and respectful tribute was paid to
the memories of our distinguished fellow citi-
zens who fell in fighting the battles of their
country IN the present war with Mexico. From
sunrise TO sunset, the national flag was displayed
at half mast from all the public buildings and
hotels, from the shl piping in the river, and from
every place of amusement in the city. Every
thing wore sombre and melancholy appearance,
particularly in the early part of the day, when
the sun was obscured by masses of dark lead
colored clouds; occasionally slight shower of
rain fell, and it required great stretch of ina
gination to think that nature was weeping over
the loss of some of her treasures.
From II O'Clock to one the bells of our differ
ent churches tolled solemn requiem.
The occasion was sad one and will be CRATE
fully remembered by our citizens
During the celebration Of the day preceding,
and when the sun was within about an hour OF
finishing his daily course, the general effect was
much enhanced by the appearance of a beautiful
rainbow, which spanned the city like a triumph
al arch 1t was beautifully sublime, and its
riegated and melting tints appeared to comminge
with the hue of the thousand brilliant flags which
ornamented the thousand flag staffs scattered
over the city. AS might be expected, 1t was much
admired, and by many looked upon the harbn-
ger of additional good tidings from the seat of
war. Whether ii was or not, we will not under
take to answer; but certain it was that within
two hours after its appearance, the glorious news
of the utter rout and defeat of the Mexicans at
Cerro Gordo reached our Office by telegraph
Nav we not now hone for peace
