Presidio, Tex, Jan. 1.-THE sixth
day Of the siege Of Oiinaga by Gen
cral Orteeas rebel army although at
tended by incassant cannonading from
daylight until late tonight ended
without any result except in increas-
ing the dead and wounded on both
sides All the wounded were sent by
The attacking rebels and the federals
&c the american side of the river to
be cared for by the Red Cross.
As reither OF the c0ntending armies
maintains hospital service. one nuns
rcf and fifty moro wCtndcd were
carried to United States territory TO
be crowded into small school house
and church which were converted
into hospitals.
While shrapncl and yollcy after VOL
10y of rifle five We're poured into the
little village rpon which the whole
northern division Of the federal army
with it's eleven generals are making
a stand against retreat, the relative
positions Of the two armies nj night
fall were unchanged.
General Ouega's army, which had
taken entertainments on all sides Of
Ojinnga, except that which faces the
Texas border, were withdrawn and
concentrated about two miles west on
the banks of the Conchos river Just
previously General Salazar, with 500
federal volunteers, succeeded for the
first time since the siege in going out
Of the fortfications in an attempt to
attack General Ortega's rear but was
driven back by the rebels not how
ever, until he had killed a dozen or
more rebels.
So far the casualties have been dis
proportionate 10 the nnmber of shots
fired. About 10000 rounds OF ann
munition have been expended by both
armies on the basis that six thou
sand rebels and 1000 federals are en-
gagged, this would indicate that twelve
shots were fired for each soldier while
the total dead and wounded do not
exceed one thousand

fives and the usual order of recitations
followed. The history class gave many
hitherto unknown facts. The arithmetic

vision of the latest Webster. Declama-
