Wool's division, dated after the great battle, which
gives minute information with regard to the death 1
of the gallant Capt. Lincoln, a son of Ex•Croier

not ]seen in print. Accompanying the letter is a
beautiful draft of the battle field, giving the pc*i•

HEAD' QUARTERS OF .GEN. WOOL,
• Ssx ]care ns Bus VISTA,
(Neat Saltillo,) February 2.5, 1847.
Doan Bacrrusi t—l am still among the living
in this land, and that is all. One of the herded
fought battles ever fought by Americans; has just.
terminated. Santa Anna with his army 0f24,000-
me'n (16.000 Infantry and 8,000 Cavalry) is de
feated and driven back by the - "Sleepy Division"
of 4,110 men. On the morning of the 21st inst.,
being encamped at Aguii`Nueya along with a
small force under Gen. Taylor, our ,Picket Guards
brought in the intelligence of a very large force
making for the" pass," (see map) being then on
the , San Luis Potosi road. Tents were immedi
ately struck, in order to change our position, and
at 12 o'clock took up the lineof march and arriv
ed • in . ,the evening at this place. News, arrived
that night -tat Santa Anna was occupying the
ground at-Agua Nueva that we left—and on the
morning of the 22d, 8. A: arrived at. Encantada„
during, which limos we were preparing ourselves
(or ikhard fight, and during the middle of, the day, •
.theenemy got id sight, and after' considerable ma
nouvering, formed line of battle. ,At 4 o'clock,
P. M., the first gyn was fired, and the action con
tinued until sunset, when the enemy fell back to
. .Encantada;and 'we kept the field.' On the morn
ilig'of the 23d our Picket Guard was fired on by
the Lancers, which called all bands to duty at day
break. The action commenced Immediately and
continued without interniissioit until sunset—ws
were all obliged to fight that day without a mouth
ful to eat, except a few' who happened to have
some hard biscuit in their haYersacks. Our Artil-_
lery towards ICening poured in the grape and
cannister to' the enemy so hot, that several of the
-
last shots were not answered ny the enemy—they
fell back again towards or about 8 o'clock—we
yet kept the field: On the morning of the 24th, !
*some part of the .Mexican armv. appeared again,
but never shot t gun—it is said that Santa Anna •
fell back to Agua Nueva on the 23d, but it is cer
tain he was not in the field on the 24th. ,
Today he is at Atria Nueva preparing for a
march, it is said, to San Luis Potosi—he is woun
ded in the left breast and it is said, he is cone
pletely used up,with hisiwoundeilbreast,indWoun
deil heart at the loss of this battle, and at the loss
by death and desertion of some 3.000 of his men.
Gen. Taylor with the Mississippi RegiMent. two
Companies of the 2nd Dragoons, and 8 Field
pieces was in the field, which added to our diVis
ion made up the number of 4,110 men and 16
Field pieces—(3 of whieh we lost in the battle.),
but Gen. Taylor gave the battle to Gen. Wool
,who has the credit of . it.
Gen T. says it Was the hardest fought battle
he ever saw, and certainly more bravery displayed
'thin he imagined could be by Ainerican
teers.
Our loss is as follows: In Gen. Wool's Di
vision 224 killed, 373 wounded and 19 missing:
The-reports from Gen. T.'s command is not , yet
in, but it will not exceed 50 killed' andtwc;undeo.
Toe Mexicans suffered a loss of about 2300 killed
and wounded, and from 7 to 900 dise , ted, on 'ae-
Count of ill-treatment.
Among the killed was Col. A. Yell,(Ei-Gov..
krk's.) Col. J. J.. Hanin, of Illinois,.Col. M'Kee
and Lieut. Col. H. - Clayilof Kentucky, and my'
much esteemed friend,. Copt G, Lincoln, Assis
tant' Mit. Gen., (son of Ex Governor Lincoln.
of Mass.) Capt Lincoln assumed the .duties of
:this office on the 29th of January last, and from
My short acquaintance with him, he, was' very"
much of a gentleman and brave soldier. He was
'too brave a man to die, and made himself too con
spicuous to the enemy. He Was very tall, (over
6 feet) and rode a large grey horse up and down
in front odour column, urging the'troops onward.
I was by his side when he received a shot in his
'leg—he said "I'm shot in the leg?' We rode to
the left of the Indiana Brigade, and he said to-
Gem Lane. that be (Gem. L.) shou'd --deploy one
half his Brigade to the left, and the day' is ours"—
he hung his head on his breast and was dead.—
He received a shot through. the back of his head
and lodged in his brain, but he never fell from his
horse—two l others assisted me in taking him doWn
from his horse*, and his body ley on the field 3 or
4 hours before we could with safety carry it off.
I havisendeavored to give you a. short history
of battle, but not so much as I would like.—
am almost done over for Want of sleep. rest, &c.
having been on the run ever since the morning of
of the 21st. Yours truly, •

VERA CRUZ TO MEXICO.
About 10 miles front Vera Cruz is a stream,
200 yards wide, creased at a ferry in scowls or by i
swimming hotseit over. The next stream, about!
-thirty miles from Vera Cruz, is fordable, end is'
also spanned -by it wooden bridge called Puente;
del Rey (the Xing's.Bridge,) and also the natural'
bridge. Near it, on the right, is all eminence of
about sixty feet, On which is 'a fort,sompletely
commanding the approach and' the brulge. Be
tween these bridges and Jalapis, the - toad passes . ,
near several height*, from which the Wisp ten

'CITY OF JALAPA.

This city 'stands on. very elevated ground, yet'
I for many mileethe ascent is quite gradual. From .
1 the city Vera Ciuzie visible, as is afso the sea,
ninety miles diitant. The 'city itself is open a
-high hill—highest in the centre, so that the
. streets' 1
decline considerably , ; so much so, that
. no wheel
ed vehicle can! pass along any of them except the
main streetor mad, which has a considerable rise
and descent. The 'city is surrounded by
. ajriall,
and has a strongly built church near the western
gate, which could be converted into a citadel:s
nit streets are paced. The houses, as in other
Mexican towns, are of stone, with flat roofs and
iron barred windows. Opposite the city, on the
left of the read, is a bill, from which the road might
be annoyed,andirthells thrown into the town ; the
'road is a handsOme end substantial structure of!
checkered pavement, and must have been very
costly. This city is to be immediately occupied
by our ' troops, and is to be the head quarters of
l
General Scott, till be takes op his.marcb for thel
Halls of the Montezumas. ----..- - I
