The Mississippi Troops at Monterey
and Their Gallant Work at
Buena Vista.
PRENTISS’ WELCOME AT NEW ORLEANS
AND JEFFERSON DAVIS 1 ELOQUENT
RESPONSE.
HIS CONTEST WITH HENRY S. FOOTE.
From the Courier-Journal:
Woodville, Miss., Aug. 27.—Vol
unteers were wont' to call skirmishes
and battles in Mexico fandangoes in
derision of Mexican bombast. The
fandango at Monterey began on the
21st of September, 1846, by Gen.
Worth’s cannon from his mountain
height above the Bishop’s palaee,
which elevated position he had secur
ed by a stealthy march along the
Saltillo road the night before, while
Gen. Taylor’s troops assailed the
enemy’s fortifications along the
front. . -
After some discharge of cannon and
retcrfns ■ by the enemy from their
forts, then musketry and rifle firing
at the nearest fort, there was an ad
vancing and firing, but so many sorts
and sizes of balls, together with
shells, howled, whistled and sung
fine about the ears, cutting down the
men ,that a run was made for this fort
and the Mississippians and Tennes
seans part of Quitman's brigade ran
pell mell into it, at a heavy cost of life
and limb, especially among Tennes
seeans. and the Mexicans ran out.
The Americans had then a lodg
ment from which they could cannon
ade, from behind some breast works
too, and not have to stand out on the
open plain for the enemy’s targets. It
was not long before the gallant Ridge-
ly had a field piece to bear on the
Grand Plaza and the cathedral. On
the 22d there was no small-arm fight
ing, cannonading being the modus
operandi. On the 23d Col. Jefferson
Davis singled out three companies of
his regiment, leading them himself
on foot to the Grand Plaza under a
galling fire from windows and house
tops. The enemy were thrown back
dead in and on their homes as fast as
heads, shoulders and arms would ap
pear at the windows above the flat
roofs. The only safety of the assail
ants, however, was in keeping as
close to house and yard Walls as pos
sible, and when crossing streets to
run for a wall, like they ran for the
fort on the 21st. This was the sort of
fighting on the third day. * There
were other commands operating in a
similar manner, while Worth, who
had taken the Bishop’s palace the
day bsfore, was working his way to
the same point, the heart of the city.
During this time Col. Davis was cool
and observant, directing his compan
ies’ movements. This mode of fight
ing drove such of the enemy as were
not killed from house to house to the
Cathedral, a strong fortification on the
Plaza, and finally to capitulation. So
Monterey was taken with, besides its
strong forts, every house defended of
massive stone, impervious to bullets,
almost so to canuon balls, its defend
ers behind the walls, commanding the
openings, the besiegers in the open
streets.
BUENA VISTA.
On the morning of the &3d of Feb
ruary, 1847, as on the day before the
hallowed and lever memorable 22d,
Col. Davis led eight companies of his
regiment to the field, two of them be
ing left each day to guard the camp
at Saltillo. Arriving at the battle
ground he led his men up a ravine to
the left from the road, and soon they
were met by Col. Bowles’ Indiana
regiment, which had been overpower
ed and driven back. Gen. Joe Lane
sat bleeding on his horse, endeavor-
in^ to rallv them. “Fall in.” lie cried,
“withthe gallant Mississippians. Don’t
you see they are not afraid. Davis
walked his horse along at the head of
his regiment, calm, solemn and stern.
Along the regimental line his men
shouted to the Indianians: Fall in,
boys, we’ll drive them back,” and
yelled defiance. Some of them fell *n
and brought up the rear. Then orvt
of the ravine, over the Hat ground*,
and across another ravine the safProw-
ed-faced devils were seen numeioi.s
and ugly enough to explain the panic
just passed. This sudden return of
tliG men, ro-GnforcGcl it m&y liii\ 6
seemed to the enemy, staggered them
for the moment, the rifles were emp
tied with fatal eftect, and they in turn
were driven ljciclv* scattered ctnd lied.
While the Mississippi and fragment
of Indiana regiments were at lest m
line Mexican liiders would rise out of
a ravine on their front, one by one,
to the extent of ten* or a dozen, and
run for home base. The first one or
two who so emerged from their hid
ing-place may have reached base, be
cause it was a surprise, and they had
legged it too far wdien shot at to
be hit with certainty; but the .majori
ty of the eight or ten who tried the
run after that never reached there;
they were shot as they rose and began
the run which led one of the men to
remark': “This reminds me of duck
shooting at home. 1 When the Mis
sissippians were forming the line, af
terward called “Jeff. Davis \ a
Captain “waxing wrath” at his men
for pot coming into line quicker
Davis’clarion tones were heard from
behind them, saying, “Captains of
companies "will be cool in their com-
mands ” There was not much time
for talk. The lancers were advanc
ing, faster they came, and in force
large enough to annihilate without
aj*ms every man in the line, no bdj o-
nets on the rifles, salvation depended
on the first fire at the right moment.
There was a breathless suspense and
anxiety as they galloped gallantly
down then trotted, then head of col
umn inside the top or opening of the
“V” crack! went Indiana's muskets,
from the short line of the \ crack,
followed Mississippi's rifles without
interval from the long line of a dense
smoke obstructed view, but when it
cleared away lancers were seen on the
ground horseless, horses riderless,
horses and riders in retreat, dividing
into two parties, one going back to
the mountain whence they came; the
other, encountered by Col. May’s
dragoons nefir a ranche where our
wounded were being cared for, fled
faster, first toward Saltillo, then to
the left, in an opposite direction to
that taken by the other party, then
up the mountain on that side, higher
and higher, until the horses looked
little larger than goats, and the rid
ers smaller than monkeys; then over
the mountain top and out of sight,
and this was their leave of Gen. Santa
Anna, for it showed them to be de
serting. If the battles of Monterey
and Buena Vista were fandangos,
they were fandangos of death far
more to Mexicans than Americans,
and if forty years has not obliterated
from Mexican memory that fact, they
will not suffer Cutting for his vain
glory to open fandangos with Ameri
cans for them.
The battle of Buena Vista com
menced on the 22d of February, but
there was little or no fighting with
small arms on that day. The general
engagement, right, center and left,
artillery, musketry and rifles, was on
the 23d, when the battle was lost to
them,, won to us with heavy loss, for
besides such officers as McKee, Clay,
Hardin, Yell, there were many hero
privates fell, but the enemy’s loss was
incomparably greater than ours, for
days afterwards, wagon-loads of
wounded Mexican prisoners would be
brought by the Mississippi camp en
route for the hospitals at Saltillo.
A Mississippian cleaning his rifle be
fore his tent on the passing of some of
these wagons, an experienced sufferer
cried from the wagon: “Reef le mucha
marlo!” which excited some mirth
Col. Davis received a severe wound in
the foot early in the day, but never
retired from the field. The next morn
ing he could neither walk nor ride,
and it w as a long time indeed before
he ever did again. Fortunately the
battle was over, the enemy vamoosed
and his services not then needed.
Young Man, Have a Purpose.
BY R. M. ORME.
Young man, do not start out in life
with the communistic idea that the
world owes you a living. The assertion
is false in fact, deceptive in reality,
wrong in principle and worse in prac
tice. The world owes you not any
thing any more than the air, sun
shine and rain own you anything.
Your mind is your capital, the world
your field to work in; and your indus
try dividends the result of vour la
bor.
We are told in one of the beautiful
and significant parables of Chrtet,
Mat. 25:15: “And unto one he gave
five talents; to another two; and to
another one.” And all that was de
manded, were that each should double
that which was given him. And so
in life; men are endowed with different
degrees of talent, and according to
the gifts given, they are held respon
sible. This world is no place for
drones, vagabonds and tramps, and
when found they should be put to
work. The world owes them not
anything; but they on the contrary
owe the world much, according to the
talents given. We are not put here
to complain, to draw comparisons, to
grumble at our’ lot or grow gloomy
over the inequalities of life. Do your
duty, act well your part, hold up
your end, and be thankful for that
which has been given you. You will
only be held accountable according to
your gifts and opportunities. The
pony cannot be expected! to draw as
much as the draft horse; but he is ex
pected to draw' according to his abili
ty, and not be looking at the big
draft horse and complaining that he
was not as big or had as muen mus-
ole.
So in every day life; look only to
your duties, and let those of others
alone. Be contented and fill well
your peculiar sphere >n life. Have a
purpose, young mani, a noble purpose;
an advancing ami growing purpose
and with fair energy, determined res
olution, and the mqtto “I will,” your
life cannot be a failure. You will be
as well satisfied with your one talent
wisely employed, as happily blessed,
as the mail who has the five talents
given him, for he has.’and it is expect
ed of him, to work five times as hard
if he gets a reward.
Be true to yourself, young man; be
true to your intellect, and keep the
gross passions and appetites of your
nature in subjection. The .mind is the
standard of the man, not his muscle or
his physical courage. Study, fill the
measure of your mind; let it not suffer
for mental food; be a man amongmen,
young man, and lay deep the founda
tion in the halcyon days of your
young manhood. The world owes
your not anything, but you owe it a
good deal while you live in it.
Beyond the grave, a new life
begins; see to it, that you
begin your preparations here
for a better life beyond. Ask no
foolish questions as to what kind of
life it is, but be worthy of it. Doubts
are millstones many times; fear a de
pression; ignoranee a hinderance; and
indifference a fatal error.
Start life with a principle, young
man; for then you have a shield im
penetrable, and a sword that will
never turn edge or break. With
principle, as your daily friend; truth,
as your companion; virtue, your
guide; honesty, your councellor; in
tegrity, your monitor; and veracity,
a constant associate; you ean laugh in
misfortune, and smile in adversity;
for they will be to you cheering com
panions in the days of prosperity,
and unwavering friends in the dark
hours of adversity. .
Fear God, young man, font is the
beginning of wisdom, and a retreat in
the hour of temptation; and^ever when
assailed with any kind of evil, say
like Joseph of old— ’How then can I
do this great wickedness and sin
against God.” There is your refuge
and helper. *
