Total effective force,

Thus, the American army under Taylor
was one-fifth the numerical force Of he Mex
lean army under Santa Anna, when the latter
approached the field of Buena Vista.
We almost regret that general description
Of the deeds Of arms on The battlefield of Bu-
ena Vista does not fall within the limits we
have prescribed to ourseli in this short hIsto-
= u Ger. Taylor Suffice it to say that the
soldiers OF this union have never shown them
selves more worthy Of the name aud OF the
land that gave them birth. They eneamped
ON he field OF their fame, after a glorious
victory over five times their number OF we'll
drilled soldiers.
The following letters of Gen. Taylor, writ
ten after the battle. are so Characteristic of
the man who thought of Others before himself,
that we cannot resist the desire TO place
them in this connection. Other anecdotes of
his character in and after the battle, will io-
low them.
"Head- Quarters, Augua Nucva, Mach |, AZ.
"MY DEtRSiR You will no doubt have
received, before this eau reach you, the deep
~ distressing intelligence Of the death of
your son in the battle of Buena Vista. 1t is
with no wish oil inlruding upon the sanctua-
~ of parental sorrow, and with no hope of
administering any consolation to your wound
ed heart, tina have taken the liberty OF adj
dressing YOU these few lines; but | have felt
1t duty which | owe 10 the memory of the
distinguished dead, to pay "A willing tribute 10
his many excellent quantities, aud while my
feelings are still fresh, to express the desola-
ton which his untimey loss, aud that OF 9TH
er kindred spirits, has Occasioned.
Il had but casual acquaintance with your
son, until he became for time a member of
my military family, and | can truly say that
no one eser won more rapidly upon my regard
or established more lasting claim to my re-
spect and esteem. Manly and honourabe in
every impulse, with no feeling but for the
Ehonour OF the service and of the country, he
gave every assurance that in the hour OF need
/ could lean with confidence upon his sup
port. Nor was ! Disappointed Under the
guidance of himself aud the lamented Mckee,
calamity did the sons of Kentucky, in the
thickest of the strife, uphold the honour Of
the state and the country.
"A grateful people will do justice to the
memory of those who fell on that eventful
day. But may be permitted to express the
bereavement which feel in the loss OF valu-
ed friends. To your son felt bound by the
strongest ties OF private regard and when
miss his familiar face, and those of Mckee
and Hardin, can say with truth, that | feel
no exultation in our success.
"With the expression OF my deepest and
most heartfelt, symPathies for your lrreparable
loss, remain,
