Beauregard, of Louisiana, who has been appointed the command'r of the troops in aud near Chariest on harbor, te tbs man who will have the duty of capturing Ma jor Anderson and hie command. General lieaurrgard won his military reputation io Mexioo, where he was a captain. He waa al so at West Point, and is considered a good engineer. The Charleston Mercury, in a •ketch of his career, says : The histories of tbs Mexican War. favora bly as they have mentioned him, have failed to notice two of the most conspicuous incidents of bis life, and which have g me far to estab liab his fsr.e. We will relate them, premising that re were not in the war, and that we re peat them from memory on ambentio informa tion. The principal laoto will stated accu rately, though there may be errors in uuiiupor. tant details. The first occurred before VeraCruz. Gen. B., then a Lieutenant of Eugineerr, wa* sent out by his Colonel (Totten, if we remember ■right) with a party of sappers to dig and pre- pur# a trench, according to a pnfLe and Inn prepared by the Colonel. No sooner bad Beauregard examined the ground than be dis covered great objections to the plan. To as- rure himself, he climbed iuto a tree, and with the aid of the marine glaen, the engineer's rode meeum, he made a reconnoia noe, aud raw plainly that die trench as planued, would be enfiladed by the enemy’s cannon. II* re was a difficult position for a rumdiern ministerial iffict-r. lie decided promptly, and returned to headquarters without slicking a spade — The Colonel met him and expres^d surprise that he had so soon performed his task.— Beauregard replied that he had not touched it. The Colonel, with the astonishment mili tary men feel in hearing their orders have not been obeyed, inquired the reason. He was soon informed of it. He was incredulous— “the ground had been eznmined*’- “the re- ^ connotsance wits peifcct.” Ac. The young ’ Lieutenant was satisfied, however that the re- ccnuoLaore of his old chief Lad not been made like bis, “from up in a trie.” The Colonel, like a sensible man, concluded to make anoth er examination—the plitn was changed in eo- cordance with the young Lieutenant’s views. The work done from these trenches is mailer of history—but its pages nowhere inform us to whom the credit is due. Our second incident occurred before the city of Mexico. A night or two before the attack a Council of War was held. There were afsemh'ed all the big folks, from the [now] Lieuieuaut Gen eral (who practices Mexican tactics from the house-tops in Washington,) including Worth, Twiggs, &o., down lo our friend Beauregatd, the youngest officer in the room. The drbate went oq for hours. Scott was solitory in his opinion. Every other officer present, except one, had spoken, and all concurred in their views. The silent one was Beauregard. At last Gen. Pierce crossed over snd said, “You have not expreceed an opinion.’* “1 have not been called on,” said Beauregard. "You bhiill be, however,” said Pierce ; and soon rc« fuming his rest, announced that Lieutenant Beauregard had not given his opinion. Being then oalled out, be remarked that if the plau which had received the assent of all but the commanding General was carried into effect, it would prove disastrous. It would be anoth er Churubusco affair. He then detailed the objections lo it at length—and taking up the other, urged the reasons in its favor with equal earnestness. The Council reversed their decision. Tht City of Mexioo was entered according to the plan urged by the young Lieutenant, and it would seetn that his reasons influenced the decision. A few days after* wards Geaeral Scott, in the presence of a num ber of general officers, alluded to Lieutenant Beauregard’s opinion at the Council, and the consequences which had followed from it. The position now so promptly assigned to Gen. Beauregard is a just tribute to bis won h. It is a great satisfaction to our people that the enemy can bring no talent against us which we cannot, match with its equal io our Bouihernlsnd; and amongst all tie bright galaxy, no ons could be more acceptable than our native born Louisiana Beuuregsrd.
