We have been furnished during the week with the
suboined exciting details of the operations Of oul
Army on the Rio Grande, OF course, we cannot
vouch for the accuracy Of all the reports, but sup
pose them to be in the main correct, regards the
principal events which they communicate. In the

and brave little Army have, by their intrepidity
and valor, proved themselves worthy OF the high
confidence which the country reposed in them and
we much regret that, whilst rejoicing In these
triumphs of our arms, the nation has to mourn the
loss of some of its bravest and most skiful officers

dispatches which he wished forward to New Orleans The
Ft accordingly returned with the squadron and remained
the Brasos until day, (sh) when she again sailed
with the Commodore's dispatches.


It appears that Commodore Conner, having heard at
Vera Cruz that hoses had on the Rio Grande
and that General Taylor in difficulty instantly sailed
the Basos, render all the assistance in his power Up
the time of the Frfs departure the sth and until she
considerable distance out sea, the cannonadng
