t. Head Quartert of thi Republic of
" ' , Lower California, Nov. 7, J853.
On the morning of the lTih of October, w e
ailed with the firei 'independent battalion
for Lower California. The command con
iited of forty-fiv men. Our oyag waa a
prosperous one to Cape St. Lhca ; we landed
on the 28ih of October; there we gained
otno Information of importance; and pro
ceeded on our way to La Pa. On the thiid
day of November our vessel cast lnchor op
poaile (he town. A party wua ordered by
Colonel Walker to land, take possession of
the town, and aeoure the peiaon of the Gov
ernorLieutenant Gillman commanding the
party. ,
In lea than thirty minutes the town waa
taken and the Governor secured. We haul
d down the Mexican (lag in front of the
Governor's house, pioclaimed the indepen
dence of Lower California, and onr indepen
dent flag fluated triumphantly where, but a
few momenta before, that of Mexico had
waved in supposed security. Our men, pro
visions, and munitions of war, were landed,
the town fortified, and Col. Walktr entered
upon hit duties as President of the Republic of
Lover California issuing such decrees as
were most congenial to the citizens, as well
as le the security and comfort of his com
mand. - Here we remained until Sunday,
November Cib, when the President determi
ned to remove the seat of government to St.
Luoas. In accordance with his determina
tion, we embarked, taking with us ex-Gov.
rner Epinoa and the public documents.
Shortly after our embarkation a vessel came
into port, having on board Col. Rebolleio,
who was sent by the government of Mexico
lo superseed ex-Governor Epino;a. A small
detachment wa despatched lo bring Colonel
Rtbolleio on board the vessel. This order
was promptly executed.
About an hour after this occurrence, a
party was sent on shore to procure wood.-
While in the act of reluming to Iheir boats,
they were fired upon by a large party of cit
izens; thus commenced the first action.
This party consisted of but six men, who re
turned lo ihe vessel under a heavy fire of
musketry, without losing a man. Meantime
a fire was opened upon the town with onr
ordinance, which was kept up until Colonel
Walker tended with thirty men, when the
fight became general. From- the time of
landing until the close of the action, (a signal
defeat of the enemy,) was about one and a
half hours. The enemy's loss waa six or
even kilted and several wounded. Our
men did not so much as receive a wound i
exoept from the Cactus, while pursuing tho
enemy through the chaparall in the rear of
the town.
Thus ended the battle of La Paz, crown
ing our-efforts with success, releasing Lower
California from the tyrannous yoke of Mexi
co, and the establishment of a new republio.
The commercial resources, the mineral and
egricultural wealth of the republic of Lower
California, destines herie compare favorably
with her sister republics. Onr men are all
in Mho health and spirits, and are as noble
and determined a body as were ever collect
ed together.
The officers who compose th government
are as follows, viz:
TUB EXECUTIVE.
William Walker, President of the Republio
of Lower California.

Our government
has been formed upon a
sure and firm basis. The civil code and
code of practice of Louisiana has been adopt
ed for the rule of decision in our courts, and
as the civil law of the land. We arrived at
Cape St. Lucas on Thursday, Nov. 8. On
th morning of the 9th, the Mexican culler
Geneva cruised off lh cape. Our Sppear
anc was so formidable she deemed prudence
the better part of vulor, heeled to and gave
us lha slip In the evening our troops again
mbarkad for Magdalen Bay, where the
President contemplated establishing the aeat
of government for the present.
Advices from Washington say that oders
for the arrest of Col Walker had been It
sued.
