The battaions of the ID Regt. Illinois
Volunteers. are united and they now form
part of the garrison of Pusbla. This
fine body of men have seen much hard
service in Mexico.
On their arrival at New Orleans, five
companies under Col. Collins were order
ed to Vera Cruz, and the remainder were
sent to Tampico, under Lieut.. Col.
Hicks.
The first battalions, suffered on their
arrival at Vera Cruz, from the UOmito.-
They were pushed as far. as San Juan,
where they remained through The slckly
season, then they advanced as far as jail
apa which place they left some four
weeks ago for Puebla.
Their Colonel, who is so well known
in Wisconsin as the patriotic talented
staunch Wing, James Collins; who so
long and ably represented old Iowa Coun-
tv in both branches of the Wisconsin Leg
nomination as tae Wing Candidate for
Congress; was defeated by the abolish
ionist, who supported his opponent was
taken i'll at Vera Cruz, and he renamed
in a had state of health until some two
months ago. He has frequently risen
from his sick bed to give necessary or
ders and in good or bad health, he has
wants and interests of his men. 1t was
through his exertions, that the two com
mands were brought together. Wlscon-
sin has another valuable officer IN this
regiment, Capt. Berry and his Lieuts.
are equally as worthy, as are all the men
that belong to Capt. Berry's Company.

Tampico, at which place he landed in the
heart of the sickly season Capt. c. l..
