From the Pittsburg Commercial Journal
The Kneeling Calumny Letter
from Captain ftaylor.
Editor of the J ournal : My at-!
tention has been called to an editorial ar-'
tide in the Pittsburgh Dispatch of Friday
under the caption of the "kneeling story,"
in which it is stated that the editor has 1
been requested to ask, by one who was j
through the war, "if the Cameron Guards !
of Harrisburg and Captain Naylor's com-'
pany of Philadelphia, were not (while on
main guard duty at Jalap a,) obliged to
kneel to thc " Host" carried in a Catho- J
lie procession and this, under a general
order issued previous to general order
No. 297."
As the Capt. Naylor, named in this en
quiry, I am asked what I have to say
upon the subjeet, and whether General
Scott ever issued an order such as above
indicated.
My reply is, there never teas such a gen
eral order. 2s o such order was ever made
known to the army. My company never
was called upou to obey such order, or .
any command purporting to be founded j
on such order. My company never did
kneel to the procession of the " Host," j
either by obligation or otherwise. Gen.
Scott never issued an order imposing any j
such obligation, nor one that would afford
any pretext or excuse to any officer uu- j
der him, for issuing such an order, or j
imposing such an obligation. The whole
thins; is a fabrication, and is at war with
that large, intelligent spirit of charity, so '.
broadly considerate of the rights and sen
sibilities of all, so eminently distinguish
ing Gen. Scott.
The foundation, upon which a spirit of
detraction insinuating what it dare not,
for many reasons, declare openly has at
tempted to rear this fabrication is to be
found, I presume, in the following occur
rence, which I briefly relate, as it came
to my knowledge, promising a few partic
ulars in order to be intelligible, and that
justice may be done to all the officers con
nected with the transaction.
Immediately after the victory of Cerro :
Gordo (on the 19th of April '47) our ar- j
my advanced and took possession 01 the
city of Jalapa, and established there a
depot and hospitals.
Soon after that, Gen. Worth with his
division advancing towards the City of
Mexico, occupied and garrisoned Perote,
and, on the loth of May, took possession
of the City of Puebla.
On the 31st of May, Gen. Scott left Ja
lapa, taking up the same line, halted at
Perote to establish matters there, and
thence pushed on to the City of Puebla,
which he entered on the morning of the
28th of May ; and there fixed his Head
Quarters, and remained until he moved
on with his conquering column to the City
of Mexico.
The posts then occupied by Scott's ar
my, were Vera Cruz on the coast; Jalapa
sixty miles in the interior ; Perote nearly
forty miles farther in the interior; and
Puebla still farther in the interiar, are
nearly a hundred miles from Jalapa.
Thus was our little army posted.
After the defeat of Santa Anna, at Cer
ro Gordo, and his ineffectual effoit to
make a stand at Puebla to prevent its
occupation by Worth, he set himself a
bout organizing in the Ticrra C(dicnt
and the country between Jalapa and Pue
bla, his forces of guerrillas ; a work in
which he was familiar, in which he had
begun life, and at which he had earned
for himself a position that had led to his
after elevation.
The result was, that in a very brief
time, the whole population of an immense
extent of country, with desperadoes from
the whole llepublic, was converted into
organized armies of guerrillas predetcry,
cruel and murderous ; a force peculiarly
fitted to the weakness of the Mexican
character, and one which could operate
destructive.' in such a country.
Our own small force, then greatly re
duced, by the discharge of all the twelve ,
months' volunteers, by casualities and .
sickness, in the heart of an enemy's conn- J
try, was, under the circumstances, wholly 1
insufficient to preserve the connexions of,
a line so extensive as that from Vera Cruz
to Peubla. Jalapa, at which the princi
ple Hospital was established, then crow-

dying, was to be abaudoned, and its gar

destined against the Mexican Capital, were
to be concentrated before the final move.
It was feared, as the period for abandon
ing Jalapa approached, that there might
be among the sick and the dying, some
whose condition might forbid removal, and
who would have to be left behind in such
safe places in the religious sanctuaries of
the city, as the good will of the Mexican
clergy would concede to them, as securi
ty against the assasin bands I have refer
red to. It was therefore, probably, deem
ed proper, by those in command at Jalapa,
to conciliate the clergy, by such good of
fices and attention., as they could bestow.
Jalapa was, at that time, garrisoned by
the 1st Regiment of Artillery, Col. Childs;
the 2d llegiment of Pennsylvania Yolun-1
teers, Col. Roberts ; and a small number!
of other troops, the whole under command
of Col. (now General) Childs; who was
the Military Governor of the city one
of the best executive soldiers of the army,
as wary and vigilant as he is brave, prompt,
energetic and decided.
I was, at the time, lying hopelessly ill,
given over by all as one beyond recovery,
(indeed, announced at home as dead,) in
the house of a Spanish family, where I
had been carried, by order of Col. Childs,
from the loft of a Dutch beer house, to
be treated and cared for.
Lying in this condition, one morning
in the early part of June, a number of
officers of the regiment to which I belong
ed (2d Penn.) came to my chamber, in a
state of much excitement, to consult
and advise with me on thc subject of a
wrong which they thought had been done I
them and their commands. !
Prom them I learned that Col. Roberts

The next morning, as I have before respected. All were held mutually and
said, a number 01 officers came to coun-
sel of me, what ought to be done ; and
from them I learned the facts I have re
lated .
They alleged that neither Col. Childs
nor Col. Roberts had any right or au-
thority to make any such request, or give
1 1 1! 1 il l
any sucn command ; on tne contrary, mac
it was in derogation both of right and au
thority. That it was derogaty to them
as men and soldiers to receive or submit
to it; and they insisted that the complaint
should be carried to Gen. Scott, and
that they would prefer charges against
and court martial both Colonels. In a
word, the officers were greatly excited, j
incriminated both Colonels Childs and :
Roberts, and so far from connecting Gen.
Scott with such orders or transaction,
whatever it might have been, directly or j
indirectly, it was to hen. ocott Umj pro
posed to appeal for redress.
Neither Col. Childs nor Col. liobcrts ev
er presented to have founded their action,
whatever it icas, upon any order of Gen.
Scott. No one in Mexico or anyiclre else,
till this time, ever presumed to connect his
name with it. He was then, and had
been for weeks, a hundred miles distant,
at his Head Quarters at Puebla, with an
assassin population and thousands of mur
derous guerrillas between the two points
rcndcriyi" communication impossible except
by forces as large as the ichole garrison of
Jalapa teas at tlie time.
At the interview between myself and
the officers, the whole subject was dis
cussed ; and so far as I was able in all
its bearings, I addressed myself at once
to quiet them. I assured them that they
did great injustice to the motives of Col.
Childs, and exhorted them, by what I
considered thc true view of the whole
case, and by all their own responsibilities,
to dismiss the subject from their own
minds, and to allay any excitement that
might exist in thc minds of others with
regard to it.
In truth, and so I told the officers at
the time, I have no doubt, that that the
whole thing was attributable to the good
ness of the heart of Colouel Childs. Fear
ing that he would be obliged to leave be
hind him some of the sick, and the dying,
nnjl t.nv.Ti!. lii-? lirsiin for cxnedients to
protect them, (should such be the case) ;
against the daggers ot the assassin, ne
thought he would, by a stroke of policy,
r-rmmK.-fp. til A filnrffV SO aS tO SCClirC for
them a religious protection, in some)
consecreated place. I
But thc arts of policy were not theforte
of Col. Childs. His end proposed was,j
right. Conciliation was a true means, i
bu this diplomacy was bad. He did not !
know how to be politic. A3 true a man !
and as good a soldier as ever drew a
blade, or displayed a column, unerring'
and unconquerable in the bold, straight-j
forward and decided movements of tho (
soldier, and abounding in the qualities'
that make a great executive soldier, 1 j
hope I do his gallant spirit no injustice,!
by saying, that his humanity in that case, j
ran away with his better judgment; and
that he is a much better soldier than po
litician. I have been somewhat prolix 111 my
narrative, but in stating
the case, the
names of Colonel Koberts and Childs had
to be used, and it seemed to me unfair, not
to glance at the circumstances under which
they acted at the time. The former found
a crave in Mexico, and I would do lit-
tie justice to my heart, did I not say that
I esteemed him as a good, consciencious
man, and a brave soldier; and I have no
doubt that he was prompted in the affair
alluded to, solely by motives of humani
ty, arising out of consideration such as I
have mentioned.
With respect to Col. Childs, let me say,
in addition to what I have said, that but
for his care and kindness at Jalapa ex
tended to me, at the precise line whero
death and life meet, I, too in all proba
bility, would have found a Mexican grave;
and that I write this with no purpose to
criticise or find fault with his conduct,
and do not say that he may not have had
ample reason to justify, in his own opin
ion, the course hc pursued.
Of the transaction itself, I know noth
ing except from the relation of others at
' the time. All P know is, that General
reciprocally inviolate.

Hurrah ! hurrah ! ! hurrah ! ! !

We will shout aloud the chorua,
Till the heaven's are o'er us
Shall rebound the loud hurra.
