that that most distans horse regiment can,
not be a‘suelnblod (say) at Franklnrt on the

Thence it will probably be obliged to
march via Memphis, Fulton, on the Red

of some 1,200 miles. The route: of the

not a day for instruction at its rendezvous,

_ before (according to all computations we
can make here) the middle of August.
I think, considering that. we cannot hope
to have more than 800 regular cavalry on
the lower Rio Grande, no criminander‘
would be willing to enter Mexico without
both the Kentucky and Tennessee regi

which seems to be conclusive as to the pe
riod best for taking up lines of operations
from and beyond the lower Rio Grande.

months volunteers to find their way as
they may to the Mexican frontier—viz :
the number of patriotic Luuisianians who
have poured. and are pouring in. upon
Brevet Brigadier General Taylor, at Point
Isabel. or opposite to Matamoras.
.Those meritorious volunteer:l can, under
the circumstances, have legally engaged
tor three months only: They could have
no knowledge of the volunteer act of May
18,1846, without which'no enrollment tur
more than three months would be binding
upon~them. And that term. without a lor
nial re-enrollment, under the recent act,
for the longer period, not an officer or a
man could be legally held to service or
tried tor any nfleiice whatever. They ev
idently hastened to the scene of dangerto
succour our little army there i to save it
from what they no doubt deemed probable

Louisianians may be ready to become
twelve months \olunteers, and to be legal

men they could hardly. even in the ab

an honorable discharge. Betore the time

well—if numbers of them do not volunteer
