The daily union. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1845-1857, 1847-03-29

In our article in Thursday nights 'Union," under the
head of The forces under the command of General Tay
lo" the number of troops, and their distribution, de-
rived from the War Office accurately stated; but
lest might be supposed by any that the general had
under his immediate command greater force than was
actually the case it may be proper to state in more spe
cifc terms the number of troops which, it is supposed,
were with General Taylor at and near Salillo We un-
derstand at the War Office that the force at and in the
position near Sallo was about five thousand nine hun
dred of which little upwards OF five thousand may be
counted as effective; and this is the whole amount
which could have been brought into the field TO oppose
General Santa Anna at any point between Monterey
and Aqua Nueva unless conflict took place very near
Monterey; in which case, part of the troops there sta
toned some twelve or thirteen hundred) would, doubt
be made available.
We may add of the force at Saltilo, there are four
companies of United States artillery well equipped, with
eighteen guns and four companies of dragoons-making
in ALL about six hundred and fifty regulars, who, for
prowess and skill in battle believe would be unsur
passed in any service in the world
Should Col. Morgan have succeeded in making his
way from Cerralvo to Monterey (Which we sincerely
trust may be the case,) he would carry into Gen Tay
lors camp reinforcement Of from 400 500 volunteers
As stated Thursday evening, from the statement
in the Adutant Generals office, The aggregate of force
both regular and volunteer, under the orders of General
Taylor shown upon the muster rolls, is 1890 o.
these 1922 regular troops s25o volunteers OF
the eves of May and June last making total of 1874
men, exclusive of the volunteer regiments But Is
supposed that OF these 937 not than about 5000
certainly should be counted as effective 1t is probable
indeed that OF these troops the field, the effective force
may not exceed 1900. To this number, however, must
be aided the regiments of volunteers called out in
November, 1885, amounting to 1886. Of these not
than 1000 probably be reckoned effective. The

whole actual effective force, therefore, under the
mand OF Gen. Taylor, is not far from $4,000
The statement exhibits also, SO far as is known,
the distribution of these troops exclusive of the new
regimens) along the line of the Rio Grande from the Bra
EOS to Camargo, and thence along the line of operations
Monterey and Aqua Nueva. From this part of the
statement appears that there are at the posts on the
Rio Grande including Brazos island, Point Isabel Fort
Brown Matamoros, Camargo, and Nier total of 43i
troops OF these, 543 at Camargo sos at Mat
amoros and Fort Brown on the other side of the river
But the regiments must have already reinforced
some if not all of these posts; and the number of troops
now at Camargo is probably not less than 1900 The
garrison at Monterey numbers 1927 troops, with forty
pieces of artillery. Between the posts on the Rio Grande
and Monterey at Toredo Punta Aguada Cerralvo, and
Marin, there about TOO troops and the remainder
of the force, above stated supposed be Aqua
Nueva he headquarters of General Taylor, when last
heard from oically at Saltlo and at the Pass of the
Rinconnada"
We understand that five regiments-viz: from South
Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia Massachusetts,, and
Mssissppcaed out by the orders of November for nine
regiments to be placed at the command of Gen. Tay
lor We repeat, these would nominally amount to 526
troops; but making every allowance for Deaths sick
ness, and other deductions, they may be estimated
900 electives With the exception of the Massachu-
sets regiment which sailed fortnight ago. these regi
ments must have arrived at the Brazos and on their des
tnaon up the river, to their posts The other four
regiments are with Gen. Scott.
OF the ten regiments TO be raised under the last ten
regiment law of February and which are sent off by six
ties and seventies fast they recruited it is ex-
pccted that least 1000 would be Bazos or near that
destination, by the end of March, and 5000 by the mid
die Of April These will be sent on from the Rio Grande
to Monterey, under the discretionary direction of Gen
Cadwallader in small numbers and in such manner as
he may consider safe and expedent The last recruits
will be placed at posts the river take the place Of
those who have been longer in the service and who are
now at those posts but will first be despatched to General
Taylor.
In word, exertions spared by the War Depart
ment to send renorcements Gen. Taylor Orders have
gone TO Gen. Brooke at New Orleans, organize
cordng to the laws many 1000 troops from Loui-
sana And if Gen Scott spare any of his troops, after
taking the castle, he will probably send detachment to
the relief and Strengthening of Gen. Taylor.
