enemy had fortified themselves, and in less
/ than three quarters Of an hour the whole
opposing forces were seeking for safety by
hiding in the bushes and endeavorng to es-
cape from the city by every available source.
The number of the enemy killed in Gra-
NADIA is truly astonishing. In many of the
houses they lay piled up in dozens they
are laying on the streets, on the door steps,
and in the out-houSes They were killed in
large numbers in the bushes. Bungo loads
were killed while they were cndeavoring to
escape by the lake, and intelligence is every
hour arriving of where tens and twentieS of
bodies have been discovered in the yardS.-
The gnard-house is already nearly full cf
prisoners, and others who have been endeav-
oring to escape are being while we write,
continually brought in. There were not
more than ten Americans killed altogether
Seven of those were killed by running from
their positions too soon after they heard of
the arrival Of the troops from Masaya.
There are probably Is or 20 Wounded
Among the wounded we regret to announce
John Tabor, proprietor of E2 Nicar0gueaSe,
whose leg had been broken above the knee
by muskct ball, and Major a. DiIlis. We
have not had time to collect list of all the
killed and wounded. The victories Of Ma
saya and Granada have put period to the
war in Nicaragua Those who attacked
Granada were not natives of this country.
They boastcd during the night that they
were San Salyadorians and GuatemalianS,
and that being such, we might as well lay
down our arms at once as they were uncon-
querabIe.
We blush to add that there were white
men among them whose voice indicated that
the United States of North America had
been diSgraced by giring them nativity
The march to AaSaya spending the night
without sleep, fighting all day until morn
ing, marching back and gaining such a
; splendid victory at Granada, is probably the
greatest test Of American endurance and
bravery that has ever occurred in the couu-
try.

grossly insultcd whilst passing through
some of Our streets They were followed up
