CAPTAIN MEaRLL.-We are glad to learn that
MIR. Pardee, our member OF Assembly, has intro
duced into the House a resolution for according
vote OF thanks and gold medal to our fellow
citizen, Captain Merrill for gallant and meritorlous
services in the late war with Mexlco, which was
referred to the military committee. Captain Mer-
rill is brave and gallant officer, native of Gene
see county, ~ Y, who has passed through much
hard service, both IN the, Florida aud Mexican
wars with credit to himself and honor to his coun
try a modest, upassumIng officer and scholar
Ii is to his pen that the public are much indebted
for valuable information derived of the operations
of the army IN Mexico. The best and most graphic
accounts we have ever seen published OF the valley
Of Mexico, though not ended tor the public eve,
were from his pen, and noted down at the time,
from personal observation, publ shed in paper,
and COPIED INTO many Of the Leading jou, nails Of the
day. We understand that the captain kept !. full
journal of the Mexican war, 80 far at least as its
operations came under his observation, which We
hope some day to see published. We hope the re-
solution will not be permitted tc sleep, and that
State will honor those IN her councils who have
honored h II in the field -Batavia Advocate.
