Offers for the Mexican Service,
FROM THE ARMY OF FHE POTOMAC.
HEADQUARTERS, ARMY OF THE PoToNAC, /


Friday, Dec. 12-10 A. N.
After occupying the river front of the
city last night we lost about 100 men in
killed and wounded, while driving the
rebels through the city. They fired on our
men as they advanced through the pits
while secreted in and behind houses. Not
much mercy was shown to those who were
caught.
This morning dense fog hid every
thing from view, but now it is partially
cleared away. The troops commenced
moving at an early hour, Major General
Summers grand division leading the way
over in front of the city, to be followed
by Major General Hooker's grand divis-
ion. General Franklin's grand division,
which crosses nearly three miles below
the city, is nearly over. -.---. ..
At q quarter past nine the first gun was
fred, the engagement lasting about half an
hour, the rebels not making very spirited
reply. --..-
It is thought the troops will all be over
at noon. Information was received during
the night and this morning, from desert
ers and prisoners, that the rebels have two
strong lines of batteries in rear of the city,
the first one being one mile back, and the
second mile from the first. The whole
army is in rapid motion, and well concen-
trated The troops are in excellent spirits
and anxious to be led on to the enemy's
works.
The enemy has concentrated his forces
and it is believed will give battle. Much
will depend upon the result Of to-day all
feel sanguinc Of success.

Extract from a Letter on the Battle-Fieldl
EE a.
This battle CAniietam) has been the most
sanguinary of the war, and the only one
fought with visible design and open military
principles. The arrangement Of our corps
the overlooking position Of the commanding
General-the sending into action the right
and left divisiOns-the closing up Of the cen
ter, and final suceess-eTcites beWildering
sdmiration, and carries the mind to the great
fields Of Austerlitz and Wagram, fought by
Napoleon. Of all this have I spoken. The
heart history of such conflict, purchased by
the life of twenty thousand men, must be
found in the hospitals. War has its glo-
ries-but it has ten thousand demons in
these human tortures, that make the eye
balls aohe-the heart bleed-the lips palsy,
and the brain reel. The sight is at first pos
itively unendurable. The life blood of some
is still trickling away in silent calmness-
while the discovered limbs and maniac brain
of others give rise to sounds God grant may
not again witness.
But ye mothers who here seek a sOn-Or
wives a husband-or sisters q brother-or
sons a father-knoW and BE- consoled that
even here the hand of mercy is watehfuI, and
better care is bestowed upon your loved ones
than might at first seem possible. It was in
the hospital, where rested the gallant Hooker,
that learned the history Of those mythical
words so often seen and so little understood,
as. F.-1s6O-X." Anything alleviating
the suffsrings and saving the lives of our
soldiers, is national blessing. witnessed
some astonishing results from this article.
It is we'll known the effect Of burnt gun
powder and excitement is thirst, which ad-
ded to the loss of blood in the wounded, ere
ates the necessity of reyiving stimulant,-
In this particular hospital, the physicians
were allowing their patients to drink Planta-
tiOn Bitters, otherwise called s. T.-1s8O-X,
and although the most numerous here--this
division having opened the hght at in the
mOrning-the men were mostly composed
and there was very little fainting. The arti-
Gle acts upon the nerves in the most insom-
Prehensible manner, superior to brandy, and
without subsequent reaction. It originated
in the West Indies, composed Of the cele-
brated Calisaya Bark, Roots, Herbs, &C.; all
preserved in St. Croix Rum-the S. T.-1s60
*, being a secret ingredient not yet
revealed to the public. It IS principally rec
ommeaded for want Of appetite, disordered
liver, intermittent fevers, stomaehio dificul-
ties, &c. understand it was somewhat
known in the Southern States previous to the

HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE PoTo1IAc,


HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE PoToNAc,
EVENING.
At 10 o'clock this morning the fog be-
gan to clear away, but before II o'clock
the air was again thick which continued
until O clock when it entirely disappear
ed. At quarter-past two, the rebels opened
with all their guns posted upon the first
ridge Of hills. Their main fire was direct
ly upon the city which was filed with our
troops. Those guns which were posted on
the left of the ridge were opened on the
large body of troops which crossed on the
two lower bridges and had formed in line
of battle and were moving obliquely down
the river, fronting the Massaponix. AL
though several of their shells exploded
over our troops, none were injured.
General Bayards cavalry, which crossed
on the lower bridge, had FIVE men killed,
while endeayoring to ascertain the enc
my's position. The troops which crossed
below are sleeping on their arms tonight,
the advance being within three-quarters
Of q mile of the Msssaponix Greek, their
left resting on the Rappahannock. The
enemy occupies the opposite side of the
Greek in force. The guns posted on the
bank Of this side Of the river silencea the
enemys artillery after duel Of half an
hour.
This ended the firing for the day. The
only damage done by the rebel shells
thrown into the city was to add so much
to its destruction. twenty-five Of our men
were killed last night in the streets while
driving the rebeis nut. Nearly every
HUuse In the city has been damaged pore
or less by tho Rring Of tho nrst rev days
Several splendid residences have been
completely riddled, as also all the churches.
The fires appeared to be directed on the
most prominent Of the edifces.
Several cases of wanton destruction OF
property occurred by our troops when they
entered-property which could be Of no
use to the enemy In many houses the
furniture all remained.
Some of our troops mistOOk the British
flag for secesh flag and tore it from the
residence of the British Consul. This
morning the owner came over to recover
it and it was returned to him.
The main body of the army is now over
the river, the balance being in position to
cross OF any time.
There is no indication of the enemy
evacuating. If they remain battle must
! Immediately ensue.
