Camp apposite Matconras, .April
Gentlemen.: Knowing that in the present exci
ted state of public mind as regards our Mexico af
fairs, and the welfare of our little army,. most ex
aggerated repeats 'creep into the public prints, there
by tarrying with them sorrow and anxiety into
the bosom of the friends and relatives of many of
ficers, I feel it my duty to give you a hasty but
correct account of the capture of. Capt. Thornton
and squadron. of the 2d Dragoons, by a force of
:Of g) Mexicans under Gen. Torreion.
Gen. Taylor, on the 24th, had -reeeived.a report
that the enemy were crossing the river above this
camp. Capt. Teornton, with his command, was
rent out, on the evening of the 24th, to examine
the country above, and see whether there was any
truth in the report. His command was compos
ed of Captain Hardee, Lieutenants Kane, Mason,
five sergeants, four eorpnrals, one bugler, and forty
nine privaleA.
His Mexican guides returned this morning, sta
ting that he had been attacked, at S o'clock, on the
morning of the 25th, by a large Mimbe* of the ,
enemy, and that the whole command w•as
Captur
ed.or destroyed. The guide informed him that
he was in the vicinity of the enemy, and refused
.to proceed. He waited until night, and none of
the party coming in, he leturned home.
At about 7 o'clock in the morning one 'of the
soldiers of the party was brought in a cart. The
man who brought hint in was the bearer of a note
from Gen. Torrejon to Gen. Taylor, the amount
of which was that on the score of humanity he
claimed the privilege of sending in to him two
dragoons who were wounded in an engagement
brought on by a charge from an American caval
ry• officer against his command of 200 men, as
he had no flying hospital. 'rhe rest w,cre prison
ers, and would be treated with the consideration
due prisoners of war, agreable to the customs of
civilized nations,

. GARRARD.
From the wounded dragoone we obtain the fol
lowing facts-.—that a charge was made in open
ground. That when the command ••cle" was
given, but few of the enemy were seen, but as
they dashed over a hill the whole command pre
.ented themselves. and were fired upon and imme
diately surrounded and taken prisoners. lie does
not know what became of Capt Thornton.
Capt. Hardee and Lieutenant Mason are prison
er..., and are ell well. He reports Lieutenant Rune
as shot, and it is feared he is killed. Ten men
were killed before the cart left, one of the two
mentioned died. From the note of General Tor
rejon. it seems, that he accuses Capt. Thornton
of having charged on him.
One can hardly conceiNe of such madness as
ehargirrr 200 men with (t 3, and it is fair to pre
sume that he was surrounded and charged to cut
hiA way through. Time will clear it all up.
The capture of Capt Thornton's party, and
sad death of Lieut Porter. with the murder of
Col. Cross. is rather a melancholy commence
ment of the War. I say War! War! for there is
no doubt of its existence, and that unless an ar
mistice is signed in ten days we must have some
hard fighting.
The enemy are collecting in some considerable
numbers. and I think their force may be estimated
with safety at 5000. Gea. Taylor is rapidly push
ing forward his field works. and I understand has
sent for .1000 volunteers-2000 from Louisiana,
and 900 , ) from Texas.
If they will give us a fair fight we do not doubt
our ability to whip them. But if they are going
to give us a second edition of the Florida war, it
will be a very annoying affair.
Yours, very truly.

ANOTHER - ASTONISHING CURE!
WIRYAR'S BALSAM OFOSILD CHERRY, always trium
phant! cure follows cure'in its onward victorious
career!
DArrox, Feb, Ilth, 1845
J. W. Whitmore.—Dear Sir: As youare the rag-
War authorized agent in Dayton, for the sale of "Dr.
Wistaes Balsam of 'Wild Cherry,” I take this'ineth
od of making,a statement of acts to you (Which I
hope may be published.to the worldyin reference to
almost miraculous' cute, wrought in my cake by
means of the. bove Iniiiiluable Balsam.
Language fails to describe the salutary effects ifpro
duced, and the great benefit I derived from its use.
The citizens of Dayton and vicinity, well recol
lect that on,the Sth of August last, I received seri
ous injury from the explosion of a cannon. A por
tion of its contents entered my right side and breast;
and in all probability, some fragments or splinters of
the ram-red passed through the "plum.," and pierced
the Lungs.
After the lapse of about six weeks, T was attacked
with a distressing rough and a violent pain in nip
right side. Some ten days after this when to a par
oxysm of coughing, suddenly and utcnn broke, and
a large quantity of very offensive matter, mixed
with blood, WPS discharged; most of which found
passage through the opening of the wound. From
this opening there frequently passed a quantity of
air, supposed to issue from the lungs. During all
this time my sufferings were almost intolerable.
My physicians, meanwhile paid the strictest atten
tion to me, and did all in their power rur my recov
ery. But with all their skill they could not reach
the seat of distress, after the Lungs had berms affect
ed. I was visited during this time by at least twenty
Physicians.
It was now reduced to.a Certainty, that istgaination
of the lungs was rapidly taking place; and that this
would terminate my life in a very short time, was in
the highest degree probable. •
At this critical stage, amessengcr was despatched
to Cincinnati, and a celebrated Physician of that
place was consulted.• When he was made acquaint
ed with my situation, he remarked that nothing could
be done by medical aid, if the constitution itself was
not sufficient to throw Off the disease.
My friends now despaired of my recovery, and I
had no earthly ground of hope to survive many days.
Fortunatelynt this ,juncture, I saw one of Dr. WM
tar's Pamphlets, entitled "Family Medical Guide,
or "Treatise on Consumption of the Lungs." As I
had often heard of dying men "catching at straws,"
I felt this doing so myself. By the consent of my
Physicians, I sent to you for a bottle of the medicine
described viz: "Wislar , s.Balsam of Wild Cherry,"
which relieved me almost immediately. Alter I
hail used some five 0i six bottles I safer recovered as
lobe up end about. 'My cough ceased, and my lungs
were restored to a healthy state—all from the heal
ing and balmy inilueihie awl powerful medicinal vir
tues of tVistar's Balsam,
Were it not from the external injury I received in
my shoulder and arm by the explosion, I feel confi
dent that I might have been working at my trade
(which is blackamithing,) but this has prevented.
By exposure, I have since taken several severe
colds, and my only remedy has been "the balsam."
And I now most cordially-recommend the genuine
Wistar , s ? Balsam to all who are afflicted with Colds,
Coughs, or Lung Complaints. I consider it an inval
uable medicine—a real blessing to the world, Any
person desiring further information, may call on me
any time, yours truly,
