'nearly twenty days before President Polk rent his

The original act of assembly required one hun

sons to become members of the company, sttb.re.
quent and more favorable Legislation reduced the
amount to be paid on each share to the small
sum of fifty dollars and reduced the first instal

"I - pper California, January
"Now, as rapidly as possible, I will tell you,
where I have been. and where. lam going. I
crossed the Rocky Mountains on the main Afi
passing outut its xety head water, explored
the southern shore of the great Salt Lake, and
eis
ited one of its islands. You know that on et cry
extant map, manuscript or printed, the is hole ui
the Great Basin is represented as a LINDE PLAIN,
barren, without water, and without grass. i'ell
your father that, with a volunteer party of fifteen
men, I crossed it between the parallels of .711 and
3:1 de... Instead of a plain, I found it, throughout
its whole extent, trineised by parallel ranges of
lofty mountains, their simanits white with snow,
(October) while below the valleys had none. In.
stead of a barien country, the mountains were
covered with grasses of the best quality, wooded
with several larieties of tires; and containing
more deer and mountain sheep than we hail seen
in any previous part of our voyage. So utterly at
variance with every description, from autliudir
sources, or from rumor and report, it is fair to
consider this country as hitherto wholly unexplo
red, and never before visited by a white man. I
met my party at the rendezvous, a lake southe mat
of the Pyramid Lake, again separated, sending
them along the cistern side of the Great :terra.
three or four hundred miles, in a southerly three
tion, where they were to cross into the valley 0;
the St. Joaquim; near its bead.—
During all the time I was not with their, Mr.
Joseph Walker was their guide. ilr. Talbot (tell
his mother he is well, and dries well) in charge.
and Mr. Kern the topographer?. The eleventh day
alter leaving them I reached leapt. 'Futter's, ems
sing the Sierra on the ith December, Leiore the
snow had fallen there. Now the Sierra is abso.
'Moly iincrassal.de .he place of our passage two
years ago is lUMinous with masses of snow. II)
the route I have'eiplored I can ride in thirty five
days froth the Fontaine qui Pouit• ricer to Capt.
•Sutter's; and; for wagons, the road is decidedly tar
better. I wish this known to yokr father. as now,
that the journey' has been ;node, it maybe said this
too was already known. I shall make a short
journey up the eastern branch of the Sacremeftto.
and go, from the Tlamath lake into the Wahlah
i math valley, through a pass alluded to in my re
por4 iu this-woy Making the road into Oregon far
shorter, and a 'good one in place of the present v cry
bad onedown the Columbia. When I shall have
made this-short exploration, I.bhitll have explored
„fromitregining to end this road to Oregon.
..A'ikavejust returned, with my party of sixteen ;
from an exploring journey in the Sierre Nevada,
frouirthe neighborhood of Sister's to the heads
of thetake Fork. We got among heavy snow s

I had elsewhere met them: suffered again as in our
first pa.ssagi;..got among the "horse thieves, - (In

several, and fought our way down into the plain
again, and back to - Suter's. Tell your father that
I have something to , , tell him of some handsome
exploits of Carson and-Dick Owens and others.
"I am going now on business to see some gentle
' men on the coast, and will then join my people,
and . complete our survey in this part of the country
as rapidly as possible. The season is now just ar
riving when vegetation is corning out in all the
beauty I have often described to you; and in that
part of our labors I shall gratify all my hopes. I
find the theory of our Great Basin fully- coulirmed
in having for its southern boundary lofty
mountains. The Sierra, too, is broader where this
chain leaves it, than in any other part that !have
seen. So soon as the proper season comes, and 'my
animals are rested, we turn our faces homeward,
and Ise -sure that grass will not grow under our feet.

for independence. It was my fortune to be a citizen
in I S3LI of that devoted country, whose inhabitants
were scourged with a war of extermination itn-ol•
ving their brave soldiers and helpless women and
children in one common ruin_ I was an eye wit
ness to the frightful scenes which followed the fall 1
01 the Alamo and the massacre of Goliad, when the
panic stricken inhabitants gave up their country
aS lost, abandoned their homes, and fled to the Uni•
ted States for protection. •Ihe recollection of these
scenes, attended as the;• is ere with great misfortune
to myself rersonally, ;an never be effaced from my
memory, and will, I ant sure, be an ample apology
; to the regiment of National Guards tor a request
to which their well known character insures a fa.
‘orable response. It is, that while invading your
' enemy s country the bands that still be eigerty
raced to strike the soldiers of that country in the
tin ay or on the field of battle, will extend to the
wises and children of those soldiers whom the fate
of war may place in your power that protection
which•is the sure test ,ii slut alry and courage.
Let it not be said that they were forced to aban
don their home; through rear of insult and outrage
from their country s invaders. Let the contrast
in the deportment of our army as compared with
the Mexicanain the invasion of Texas in IS3n, be as
striking and memorable as the remit was disgrace
:ill and disastrous to their antis, and which, as I
confidently predict, will be honorable and glorious
to ours,
Wishing the Regiment the ble , sing of health,
so necessary to the anluous seniee in which they
will soon be engaged,
I remain, with great re:pert,
Your Most obedient ' , errant,
MARY E. IL GWINN
Col. peyton s replyis s ery appropriate. Ile says,
You hove presented to us a noble. Banner.—
Round each of its silken threads shall be entwined
a patella memory of the fair hands and warm
hearts to which we owe its radiant folds When
it floats over us in the battle -field. streaming like
a meteor against the wind, we will look upon its
proud, stern motto, think of our country, and of
you, its dearest jewels, and commit ourselves to
the glorious destiny to which you have pledged us
__-Victory or Death."
" - When speaks the trumpet's signal tone,
And the long line conies gleaming on,
Ere yet the life-blood, warm and wet,
Huth dimmed the glistening, baronet_
The soldier's eye should brightly- ttum
To where its meteor glories burn,
Arid as Ins springing steps advance,
Catch war and vengeance from the glance!"
'And should the God of battles smile upon our
arms, we will es er remember in our hour of tri
umph that Woman:s hand prepared our standard,
and beneath the bright word Victory would hate
written Generosity to the Vanquished, but that the
gentle heart deemed it unnecessary so to admon
ish us, and thus paid to our humanity exert a high
er compliment than to our chivalry.
13ut if, on the other hand, reverses should await
us—if sickness should prostrate, or superior
truce check us for a time—we will turn to our
beautiful banner, and think of those who entrust.
e,l it to our care; then the faint heart will become
strengthened, and the weary arm renew its vigor.
In its glistening folds ne shall behold your bright
smiles, in its rustling wave we shall bear your
sweet voices whispering encouragement.
A SCENE IN THE NEW ORLEANS LEGISLATVIIE
—The incident of the refusal of Salmi-, President
of the Bank of Lousiana, to lend the State Pow and
the patriotic conduct of Mr. Burke, of the Can I
Bank, in advancing this suns, is already known
to our readers. The New• Orleans Jeffersoniun says
that after this incident occurred, Governor Johnson
appeared on the floor of the Home of Representa
tives, and asked to make a statement. Leave
being granted, the Gosemor then said,—
Gentlemen, I have called on you this morning
to state a circumstance . of a peculiar nature and to
ask you to become my witnesses arid endorsers.
On my visit to the barracks last evening, presu
ming that the additional appropriation of 200,-
000 dollars would become a law• this morning, I
promised that the troops should be paid immedi
ately.
On my return to the city last evening, I found
that the Senate had made some amendments that
would somewhat delay the passage of the bill, and
that I would be obliged to tbrieit my word to the
troops, unless I could obtain the money immedi
ately.
I made application to Mr. B. Story. of the Bank
of L o uisiana, and asked for statuti, to he refunded
when the law paned. Mr. Story declined letting
me hate the amount.
I
then made application to Mr. Burke, President
of the Canal Bank, who, without any hesitation,
immediately placed at my credit the sum of 1)000
dollars, and declared his willingness to let me have
any mould needed.
Gentlemen, I ask you to Le my witnesses and
endorsers in this matter.
The Governor then retired from the House
amidst the cheers of the Representatives.
The House thea,immediately took up the appro
priation bill which had : just been received from
the Senate, and passed it by acclamation.
Mr: Morse immediately afterwards introduced a
resolution empOwering the. Governor to refund
this 9000 dollars to the Canal Bank out of the ap
propriation just made.
I The Afe.rican Champions.—The patriotic press of
the whole country is teeming with denunciations

theie. sixteen Congressional champions of Mexico
deserve to be posted all over the land,--they on'
destined to become ,as infamously notorious as
the Blue Lights in the last war. One of diem has
been told thai . hie condi:tot has a parallel only in the
case of the traitor Arnolii—they are;: all desti ned

veterans of twenty battles—were literally cut to
pieces; and it is said that only. twenty-six of them
remain. They were panic-stricken and routed.—
Ne‘er was there a more decisise victory. Seven
thousand choice regular troops, having chosen their
position in two battles, and. conquered by two
thousand of our soldiers, speaks volumes' for the
discipline and efficiency of the United States army:

Foreign Periodicals.
REPUBLICATION OF The London Quarterly
Review, the Edinburgh Review, the Foreign
Quarterly Review, the Wistinbuter Review, and
Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine.-The above Per
riodicals are reprinted in New York, immediately
on their arrival by the British steamers, in a beau
tiful clear type, on fine white paper, and are faith
ful copies of the originals—Blackwood's Magazine
being an exact fac-simile of the Edinburgh edition.
The wide-spread fame of these splendid Periodi
cals renders it needless to sa± much in their praise.
As literary organs, they stand far in advance of
any works of a similar stamp now published, while
the political complexion of each is marked by a
dignity, candor and forbearance not often found in
works of a party character.
They embrace the views of the three great par
ties in England—Whig, Tory. and Radical.—
“Btackwood” and the "London Quarterly" are
Tory; the "Edinburgh Review,'" Whig; and the
- Westminister," Radical. The “Foreign Quarter
ly"' is purely literary, being devoted principally to
criticisms on foreign Continental Works.
The prices of the RE-PRINTS are less than one
third of those of foreign copies, and while they
are equally well got up, they afford all that advan
tage to the -Inieriraa over the English reader /
