SATURDAY MORNUIG, NOVEMBER 7,.1546
A Public; Square.
'There is a very well written communication in
•
- the Gazette against the proposition to devote the
lot in front of the new Court House to public uses il
As this is the first
formal argument we have seen
against
against-this"very Popular measure, and as-it embo.
"ille!if tall.„that Can be said' on that side of the tinesllo:it may he worthy of a little' attention. •
The writer's-frst objeCtion is that 'it is not well
elOcited nor large enough for 'a public square.--
ilaili is true .as - regards; the size of the lot; but
1:10t;in regard: to its loation. It is situated ex-`
, aidy l Where the, principal square"of a great city
ought - to be; Three Of its sides arc enclosed
, - with public-buildings •(a church, court house, and I
; . school .bouse,) among the largest and finest in the
'City, and their aut:l effecti , aill be whOlfy
' lost ift they are to be hemmed in, on
. all sides by 1
' •`piles of brick and mortar. A public square ought
l
.15),becentral—this lobs in "the very heart of the
most populous: Part of the:city and is, in that rod
sped, admirably located. But its size. is objected 1
'
to • We admit the force of this, and know of no,
otherway to remedy' the defect,!than to make two
squares instead of One, which; could be done by
'purchasing theilot lOri the southern side of the l
Court House, and converting it into a square. 'This!
• could easily be done, and would go far toward si
; denciug one of the Writer's objections. It is. true,
• '
both squares, if thrown into lone, would not be
- 40. large as 1 , Boston Corrimon,, which the writq
takes as the model of a' public square, but theri
it "will' ansier the. purpose to a certain extent,
and,-prove to the wtorki, that we are dispOed to
remedy, as , far as' possible, the error comOtitted
in the original planning of - l our city, and that
liberality and tist i e I have 'not I been buried in our
coal pits, ;n it squeezed to death in our iron
mills. - I - , • . , !

The writer says the working men never 4 .10af
in public square they have no lcisuie to ilt).•
isoand that, in the beautiful
. squares of Phila.
no' , ,wOrlting, men axe ,seen--- , nothing bat

the question !',of the pro Posed square, would thank
the city fathers !for their forethought an4pay
their quota cheerfully. And although our woi,k
ing them mi ht not go there to- , •10af," they wodld
often repair to the.square , J to discuss matters, of
;public concern -:while • no' they w are compelled

talks :fearfully l and feelingly of our city debt,l
and tries to iniluce the idea that a "great crisis is I
at hand" in the monetary affairs of our City. We
....- .. ' will waget a cigar that this writer di., not take

1 : . ; • - ;late imprepenielnts in our water works, wherein re
-I.' -. :, ble the sum ~ - 1 .- s quandered that is require! to

idea that the ;writer is obnoxious to any of these
:. • charges, but we have no doubt than many who i
' --- agree with him may be. i
AwaY with this sordid selfishness---our city has
' - been, too long cursed with the "penny wise and
proud foolish" pcalicy:,, Let us for Once see the,
CeanicilS dd a liberal and public spirited action, and '
'that in, a e-hearted way. , let it nut be done
,
grudgingly , ,. , Assign the square in' front of the;
Court llotise to public uses, and buy the lot on the
south for the same purpose. We do hope that the
Mends of Ithe plan, in councils, will persevere and

MT DEAR cutols-Er.i This place surrendered the
evening of the .14th, after three days' contest, du
ring whirls we drew ourselves around it like a boa
constrictor, the fold beAming more contracted
each day. The place is strong by nature, and
had been much strengthened by art. They had
more than thirty pieces of artillery, which they
had disposed of with skill, and used with good ef
fect The detbnce was obstinate. Every battery
had to be carried excepting two, one of which was
evacuated during the second night; the Ober, not
until alter the surrenddr. The latter was their cit
add, and would have required a breaching battery,
which we had not— s at least not nearer than Ca-
margo.
The town is a mass of castle;. Whin the attack
extende; i ) into the town, these houses Were carried
only by small assaults. Worth's division took.the
heights, crorded with batteries, in the rear. He
carried them, one after another, in is most gallant
manner, and with little loss. A demonstration,
made by the other divisions, on the opposite ,end
of the town, soon became a general engagement
there. The horns of the bull were there, and we
mot terribly gored. There waithe main loss, with
the lest gain. General Taylor was there with all
his /tatf. We went into the range of the fire at
about hat past a. na n and Weut out of it about

THE ARMY OP rfILITCAIIIS.I
From Maj. M. C. M. Hammond,. U. S. A., .1.% ho
has arrited at New Orleans from Port Lavacca
nd aTh Antonio, Texas the Picayune has obtain
ed the following information:
One half of Gen Wool's army left San Antonio
for the l'residio on the Rio Grande on the 2ttth of
September. The General went in person on the
29th. The remainder, Consisting of sixteen eoni
ponie of Illinois infantry and tour companies of
A. Masa.; cavalry, were under command of Col.
{ Chnrchill, Inspector General B. S. A. B e t we e n
t the Ijth and bill of October, eight of these compan
ies marched, commanded by Cul. Hardin; and Col.
Churchiii was to have conducted the remainder on
the 11th, leaving one or two companie3 itt garri
son. at Delver, to prutea supplies and furnish es
corts.
Gen. W. expected to . reach Presidio in twelve
days. lie will establish a depot at that point, un
ttl it is ascertained whether steamers can ascend
the ltio Grande to a position more suitable for his
operations.. His army Will cross the river on a
flying brigade, boats for which were constructed
at an Antonin, under the direction of Capt. Fra•
tngireer, and were. transported in wagons.—
The river at the crossing is said to be near 400!
yards wide. from 'Otf tb too of which are miming
and with a rapid curient of six miles the hour.--r
If opposed by a considerable force, the passage
would be exceedingly difficult, and could not be cf,
fected without great loss.
Col. Harney's command in July, were compelled
to swim about sixty yards, and the stream so scat
tered them. that WO resolute men, as asserted by
some of his officers, coUld have prevented their lan
ding.
As soon as supplies are received to enable him
to advance. Gen. Woolfwill press on to Chihuahua.
taking Santa Rosa and: Monelova in his route.—
The former town is garrisoned with regular troops
end is said to be capable, of strong resistance.—
This line of oporatiotisiis onger than might be se
lected, but it has the !advantage of turning the
mountain passes—of abundance of water and
some provisions—and tans within seventy or eigh
ty miles of Gen. Tayler's, when co-operation can
be readily effected, if necessary.
Gen W has exhibfited greabactit ity and ener-
gy in preparing fur the march. On arrivino• ' at.
San Antonia, on the 14th of August, he was far in
advance of his army alai his supplies, and met Niith
innumerable obstacles in procuring wagons, teams,
forage, and provisions. lie moved his forces at
the earliest practicable moment, with so limited a
number of ratidns as scarcely to justify his advance.
It is found impossible to transport supplies by
water to the Presidio 'or other points on the Rio
Grande whence to furnish the army, it will be ne
cessary to haul all their provisions from Port La
yucca, by way of San Antonio, a distance to Chi
huahua of nearly 800: miles, and through a coun
try, in rainy seasons, almost impassable for heavy
wagons. It Will be seen that this enterprise is gi
gantic, and its accomplishment will be an' achieve
ment more arduous and. more creditable than a
brilliant victory.
The health of the troops had very much impro
ved. The sick were left at. I3exar under care of
Dr. Glenn, U. S. A. • - -
The command consists of the followingl-1 com
pany Light Artillery; 2 do. Ist Dragoons; 2 do. 2d
Dragoons; 1 regiment Arkansas Cavalry; 3 compa
nies 6th regular Infrintry;.l do. Kentucky Infantry;
2 regiments Illinois Infantry. . •
The Kentucky regiment of Cavalry.left Lavaeca
on the 18th inst. for Matamoros. About forty of
them had died, filly to seventy had been discharged,
and one hundred sick were sent fp Matamoros by
water. At one time it,:tras said that,3oo men • were
on the sick report. The Tenntfitee Cavalry fol

Since my, last letter whith Yoti kindly' , inserted
in your' coltimns, and in which I endeavored to
give you 'some 'faint sketch of the glooiny and
desolate aspect of things in this ?lice, I AM happy
to. inform you-the scene is beginning to change,
and instead Of the silent monotony which -reigned
throughout the towivand suburbs,„ there may now
be seen a few of those mob-banished citizens again
reconnoitering their once cheerful homes; but in
fact pillaged and stript of all the •most valuable
thingsthei , had left, and who are now beginning to
think they 1 may return, the Governor having at
length loaded - a preclamation callirv , upon the
Militia to asseMble•and_arganize in order to put
stop to this reign of terror" and looli violence.
No sooner did intelligence arrive here that the
Governor was about to redeerhthe State item the
foul stigma Whieh rests upon it, than these chain
pions of civil and religious liberty took to their
heels. On Wednesday, about mid-night, they re
moved .the ; cannon which they had inside of the
Temple, and.on the following day, they took off .a
wagonLarl of guns and swords, the greater part
of which belonged to the'Mormons and new citi

A Washington Correspondent of the New York
Herald makes 'the following estimate of the ex
penses of the war &mu to the, 31st Oct. ult.,
assuming thpt .20.0u0 men have been added to the
previdusly etisting army:
"Allowing iribh man (including officers) for clo

For 300 baz, , glige wagons and harness,

For 500 ariles and pack saddles, at $75 37.f%00
Fur 1 1 ,000 horses, for wagons, at $5O 3:1,000
For 4,000 teats, at slo' 30,000 •
For 0,0011 horses and equipments, for

For purchase and hire of steamboats,
brigs. schooners, &c., including ,r,00,000
For eunnagent expenses, 500,000
So-that including the cost of arms and munitions,
the expenses of the war will be hardly equal to the
$10,000 ; 000 appropriation by Congress for -the ,r,0,-
uuo volunteers, or not exceeding, for the army and l
navy, up to the close of the - current ()ember.
The debreteated thus far is little or nothing.--1
tio debt has been or will be incurred for arms or
munitions. The magazine at this city alone con-
tains powder enough, (or the materials fonts man

•cannon and balls sufficient to batter down the peak
of Orizaba after razeeing the castle at Vera Cruz
There are arms enough on hand at the various de;
pots to equip a million of soldier's, and munitions
sufficient Mr a long campaign for that vast body of
troops. In this respect, at least, we would have
