The promptitude, energy, and ardor exhibited in
due praise from all. We understand that the fol-
lowing officers of the corps of typographical eng-
neers are with General Taylor's army on the Rio
Grande: Captain w. G. Williams, Lieutenans
George Meade, John Pope, and Thomas J.
Wood. Lieutenants Meade and Wood were
with this command at Corpus Christi and du-
ring all its operations since. Captain Williams
and Lieutesant Pope have joined lately. The la
mented Blake, so honorably mentioned by General
Taylor, and who lost his life on the 9th of May
was of the same corps.

Emory accompanied by Lieuenants Warner,
Albert, and Peck, of the corps of typographical en-
glneers, arrived here on last Saturday noon, from
Washington city. On Monday, at noon, they were
prepared to embark for Fort Leavenworh having
in the interim purchased a carriage, altering the
same TO make it suitable for the conveyance OF their
Instruments; hired ten men az assistants; purchased
twenty horses and mules; procured the necessary
stores; compared their Instruments; made the
sary astronomical observations and arranged every
thing preparatory to an immediate departure.


"This energy on the part of our officers Of the
typographical corps argues well for the performance
of the duties assigned them by government; and
their ability in their several departments is so we'll
known, that nothing need be said in commendation
Our northwestern expedition, we doubt not, will be
conducted with the same vgor which has marked
operations on the Rio Grande."


Lieutenant Emory is brother-in-law of Mr.
Walker, Secretary Of the Treasury, and distin-
guisbed himself on the northeastern boundary
within the past year two.-UNIoN,
