The people justly proud of the trumphs of our
arms, of the chvary and skill which they display, and
of the glory which they reflect upon our country.
Wherever troops have exered their prowess, we see
them successful and victorious In California we behold
the struggles and triumphs of Keamy and of Stockton
of our seamen and our soldiers. New Mexico has wit
messed the victories OF Kearny, and of Price, and of
Doniphan General Taylor has engraved the renown of
our arms upon the fields of Pao Alto and Resaca de la
Palma at Monterey and at Buena Vista Our victorious
banner is displayed at Tampico, and Cen Scott has
achieved in very nconsderabe time, and in the most
brilliant manner, without much loss of the precious
lives of our soldiers OF seamen the capture Of Vera
Cruz and its proud castle And he is march
ing his victorious legions to the capital OF the republic.
Ii is not surprising therefore, that general sentiment
