Several officers ofthe army are giving in their
experience as to IVd0 selected the battle field Of
Buen Vista. LchaboI Cartridge says-he was
pow~der-monkey to the gun that fred the salute

newspapers are all to forget HIM? We opine
not. We claim the privilege Of heralding his
fame by copying his valuable remarks on the
subject from the N. o. Picayune.-CFn Chron'
~ do not know how it is with others, but TO
the newspapers / look for dazzling glory and
undying fame. A mere printers devil-though
besmeared with ink-in my view, becomes sa-
cred when considered as an Integral part of
military glory. YoueditershoId us military men
at your mercy-to exalt or damn at will-until
you have us completely under your thumb,
(and fofe.ingerO or might say penned in; and
if others feel as | do, there is not man in SER
vice who would not freely shed a quart Of blood
to gain one drop Of editorial ink.
But gentlemen, | do not care who selected
the Battle ground Of Buena Vista, it is unjust
that officers should monopolize the deathless
fame everlasting and effulgent lusIre-giving
columns Of the public press. And ! demand a
place in your valuable Journal that the world
may know my companions and myself fred the
late salute; that zoe had som hand in he war;
and it may prove a solace to my widowed moth
er, orphan sisters and distant relatives, TO earn
that, though my promotion has not been ra i'd,
and in This affair my position was obscure, I

CHILLs AND FEvER.-1his most abaninable
Of abominable disease is, at this time, abomin-
ably prevalent all over the country. Having
suffered from the %abomination ourseIveA we
know how to sympalhize with others. There
Is one abominnhle feature about this diseaAe
which is Characteristic Of no other and that is
that II ELECTS no sympathy from the uninitinted,
How pleasant it is to be laughed at in an ague
fit! Kind, amt ii? 1t is SO soothing to the
shiverIng sufferer; and then, when he Is Just
able to drag his weary limbs along in search Of
air and exerclse-his cadaverous face express
ing the severity of the suffering he has endured
he is met with:
"Why what is the matter! you look very i'll
indeed!"
81 have had the cnills and fever"
SIS that all; pshaw, that's noIhing!" and of
he goes, sorry that he has given expression to
a sympathetic word Such people deserve to
have the chills and fever, and we hope-no
no-unfeeling as they are, we cannot find it in
our heart, to wish them the lnAiction of SO a
bominable a punishment.
We give below a receipt, which, if faithfully
observed, will cure the chilIs and fever. Take
a wine glass full three times a ~day-the whole
mustbe taken in six doses.

THE ARMY IN MEXICO.

The Wing press have been filled with assaults
upon The Administration, because, as they say
no arrangement was made TO supply the va
CUM left in The armies of Mexico, by the with
drawal of The discharged volunteers. These Bit
ter partzans have indeed gone SO far as 10 charge
that the design Of he President was 10 leave &C.
neral Taylor with miserably small number OF
men, so as 10 ccnfine him 10 a mere guard duty
and deprive him Of all opportunity Ct winning
more laurcls. II is to be regretted that The con-
siructon Of the law in regard 10 the discharge OF
the volunteers should have given rise 10 much
embarrassment. II has been construed by the
commanding generals in Mexico 10 require a
discharge SO long before the expiration Of The
twelve months enlistment as 10 insure TO The
volunteers abundant time 10 reach the United
States within Inc period. The other, and 10 us
moe reasonable construction is, that the volnn.
tecrs should be discharged al The end OF twelve
months. This, we learn, was The construction
put upon tie law OF enlis,men, by Washington
and Jackson, and BY the Administration which
based upon itiheir plans and estimates. Had The
law been carried out under this view, The volun.
tccIs could have been retained in Mexico unit!
their numbers could have been more Than sup.
piled by the new recruits.
But even as things are, the Wing press have
attached so much importance 10 this point, and
have dwelt so zealously upon The various misre.
presentations Of the TRUTH lha, we deem ii proper
10 rc-publish The striking facts set forth in The
Union:
Our attention has been called 10 an article pub.
lished in the new York Courier and Enquirer oil
the l4,h instant, in which il is charged upon The
"Union" that il has misslaled the amount ottorcc
Of the armies under Major Generals Scott and
Taylor, and that The actual strength OF their col
umns will be much less than represented, &c.
Ii was stated in he "Union," that when he re.
Inducements which have been ordered by the War
Department Tor Major Generals Scott and Tay-
lor should aihave reached their destination, these
generals would haze under their communicative
former nearly 10000 ard The latter nearly 10000

The Ten Regiment Bill I'm jeopardy.

1T is known that the ten regiment bill has been delay
passed that body, provision was incorporated in the
bill restricting the President the appointment of the
officers for these regiments to the present session Of
Congress, thus aorng that functionary about fifteen
days to select than three hundred and fifty officers
II this provision OF the bill is adhered to- is equivalent
to destruction of this vital measure. Already every
hotel is filled with musached heroes from the adjacent
cities and the practical operation of the restriction refer
red to will be to force the President select the imme
date applicants TO the utter exclusion of the hardy sons
OF the west and other distant States Will the Senate
yield to these applications alone, give the executive
opportunity to select men, not only fitted to command
men, but who the confidence of their neighbours
and can readily rally them to the standard of their coun-
try! We shall see. OBSERVER
