"MATAMoRAs, June y.
"You have no doubt seen the account of the ac-
ions of the 9Th and 9th May There never was
such rout. The Mexicans did not stop short of
three hundred miles, leaving some four hundred
wounded in MaAmoras in the most destitute condl-
ion. The best bed any Of them lay on was raw
ade on brick floor. My opinion is that the war
Is over II most certainly is on the frontier. The
Mexican army is at a small town this side OF Mon
erey. They are very sckly. They lost numbers
# their men for want Of water Two of their gen
rails are dead Garcia and Tergonne. Volunteers
IRE coming in daily. How 80 many are to be ra-
ioned, is a mystery to me. They may all return
nOme without hearing gun"
