Cpt. aantMl H.Walker,
This officer is one ofthoM rsre spirits which
ft state of war will bring nut from our citizen
aoldiera. Ilia late xincrjtialled conflict with the
Mexican, in which hn lost nearly every man
iindar liia command, and hia dsring heroism in
cutting hia way to Gen. Taylor's ramp, have
excited in the public mind etrong desire to
know more of him. He ia the earne gentleman
co frequently and honourably apoken of in Gen.
Green's journal of the Mier expedition. He is
a native of Washington City, from whenco he
went into the Florida War, where in sevenl
campaigns he distinguished himaelf by hia in
'trepid bravery. In 1842 he went to Texas,
nnd during the invasion of that republic by Gen.
Wol!, he was marked for hia bold and daring
conduct After the Mexican General had re
treated from San Antonia, and when he lay n
non the Rio Hondo, Walker and Captain Mc
Cullough crawled through hie camp one night
and spied out hia position, and the next day,
, with the gallant Hays, led the attack upon hia
rear guard. He then joined the culebrated ex
pedition against Mier, and on the morning of
tliat sanguinary battle, he, with three others
being the advance scouts of the Texan was
taken prisoner, and carried with hia hands tied
behind him to the head quarters of Gen. Ampu
ilia. The Mexican General questioned him as
t j the Texan forces, and when Walker inform
J him that theTexana had only three hundred
men, Ampudia poirpouslf replied : 'Does that
audacious hand full of men presume to follow
me into this strong place and attack ine f
'Y'es.'aaya Walker, 'make yourself content u
pun that subject. General, they will follow you
into hell and attack you there.' He was, with
his comrades, then inarched prisoner to the
city of Mexico.
At Salado, with the lamented ("apt. Cameron
andajDr. Brennen, he led the attack upon the
ruards, overpowered them, and marched for
Texas, when, after eating up all their horses and
mules, and living for days upon their own urine,
surrendered to the Mexican Generals Mercier
nnd Ortago. He was again marched to Sale
do, where with his comrades, he waa made to
draw in the celebrated black bean lottery, and
every tenth man was thot Those that remain
ed of tho Texana were marched to the Castle
of Perote and the city of Mexico. Here,
while working on the streeta in that city, he
was struck by a Mexican corporal for not work
ing faster, when with bis spade he knocked
down the corporal, which caused the guards to
beat him nearly to death. His life was a long
time despaired of, and upon hia recovery, he
with two companions scaled the walla of hia
prison after nightfall, and made his way to Tex
as, over a distance of more than a thousand
milea. Before however, they got out of the
country, they were twice more imprisoned, and
each lime effected their escape. When he
reached Texas again, he joined Capt. Hays,
who, with 15 others, armed with Colt's repeating
pistols, fought ninety-six Camanches, leaving
thirty-six killed upon the ground. Here Walk
or was run through the body with a Comanche
spear, and his life again despaired of. We
now hear of him, with 24 Texans, attacking
1500 Mexicans, and all perishing in battle but
himself and six others; and then, to crown hia
wonderful life of daring, he cut his way, single
handed, into Gen. Taylor'a camp, from point
Isabel.
To such men Texas is indebted for her eman
ci pat ion from Mexico. Fewaa they are, they
have won her liberty, and have miraculously
maintained it for ten years agaijist the hoisted
power of Mexico. We trust that the President
of the United Slates in making his appoint
inents, will not overlook them. Texas has a
host ol heroes, whe not only from ten years
experience, understand the Mexican mode of
warfare, but who know every hill and dale,
river, paasand mountain gorge in the enemy's
country. Such men as Generals Burleson,
Green and McCleod, Cols. Cook and Hays,
I apts. Walker, McColleugh, Gillespie and oth
ers should be promptly called into the service;
and we are decidedly of opinion that the gal
lant and distinguished Com. Moore ahould have
the command of the liult fleet. In addition to
his high qualifications ss a naval commander,
Com. M. ia better acquainted with this coast
than any pilot on the gulf. 2V. Y. Globe,
Ges. Taylor's Bithm.ai. Since Gen.
Taylor has so gloriously distinguished himself in
his country's service, state pride has been arous
ed to discover which of our sovereignties haa
the honor of giving him birth. Ilia birthplace
seemed to be contested by Virginia and Ken
tucky, but a correspondent of Philadelphia Led'
per domes the honor to both, and give it our
own good Commonwealth. He says : 'Gener
al Taylor said he was born in Pennsylvania, near
t e borders of Virginia, and at the age of three
) oars, bis parents removing to the Old Domin
ion, he apent the greater part of bis youthful
lays in that State, but be looked with pride on
the great State which gave hi.n birth.'
Gshebai Jacksoj's Swobp. A correspnn-
dent of the New Orlcana JefTersonian atalea
fiat Gen. Jackson, by will, bequeathed to the
" an who, in the next war in which this coun
try might be engaged, should distinguish biro-
-elf moat by heroic deeds, the stcord which ke
trore on the 84 o Januaiy, 1815, the people
i tit United States to make the sward. The
r, rent victorious battles on the Rio Grande will
v ithout doubt entitle the gallant General Tay

-- Tirrsa on the Fees and Headi the disease;
commenced when I was seventeen years old, snd
continued until the Fell of 1836, varying in vio
lenee, but without ever d iaappearing. During most
of the time, great part of my face waa covered with
tbe eruption, frequently attended with violent itch
ing 1 my head swelled si times until it felt aa if it
would burst the swelling was so great, that I could.
srareely get my hat on. During Ins long period
that I was afflicted with the disease, I used a great
many si plications, (among them seversl celebrated
preparations) as well as taking inward remedies.
including s number f bottles of Swrnim's Pmtisenm,
Extract of Sarsapnrilla, Ac, In fact, it would be
impossible to enumerate all the medicines I used.
I was aleo under the care of two of the most die
tinguished physicisns of this cily, but without re
reiving much benefit, snd I despaired of ever being
cored. In the fall of 1838, the disease at the time
being very violent, I commenced using the Rose
Ointment, (prepared by Vaoghan A Davis.) In
few applications ihe violent itching ceased, the
awelling abated, the t ruplion began to dieappear.
and before I hnd used a jar the disease was entirely
cuted. It has now been nearly a year and a half
since, and there ia not a vestige of the disease re

using the Roee Ointment I would have civen hun

ilh violent Itching and swelling. I spotted to
number of physicians, and used a great many appli

stnpied the itching, and a few spplicationa immedi
