I am not able to do justice, and I do not wish it to be understood that they are intentionally overlooked. My effective strength in infantry, on the morning of the ninth, was seventeen hundred, of which about three hundred and fifty were left on picket. Subjoined is a list of killed, wounded, and missing, showing sixteen killed, one hundred and forty-five wounded, and two missing; total, one hundred and sixty-three. I can also bear testimony to the gallantry and good conduct of Colonel Tomas, and the officers and men of his brigade, whose timely arrival rendered my right secure, and whose deadly fire contributed largely to the repulse of the enemy. Very respectfully, Your obedient servant, J. A. Early, Brigadier-General, commanding Brigade. Report of Colonel Ronald, of First brigade. headquarters First brigade Virginia volunteers, V.

In Algiers and Paraguay, our Fathers taught the native how to till his soil and gather in his grain. At Santa Clara we have other things to do.

Hoping to do our business well, we have enlarged the old fence, built a new front to the church, and added new halls and bath-rooms to the mission-house. Pray tell me how you got the ground? By bringing peace into the town, and proving that we came as friends. My predecessor, Padre Giovanni No

At Santa Clara, Fray Tomas found a medicineman ruling the people by divine and patriarchal right, as seer and father of his tribe. Fray Tomas took his place, but left the law on which that seer and patriarch reigned untouched. A change of person introduced no change of plan. Each governed with despotic sway. Though cand with the power of his Great Spirit. The rule was priestly and the kingdom was of God. Fray Tomas governed in the name of his Great Spirit-his Holy Trinity, his Three in One. Such are the methouch the pretensions, of Brigham Young. The Mormon prophet only goes beyond a teacher like Fray Tomas, where Fray Tomas fell behind such chiefs as Red Cloud. A Christian friar is chastened in his eTomas fell behind such chiefs as Red Cloud. A Christian friar is chastened in his exercise of power by the remembrance of his vows and by the habits and restraints of civilized life. An Indian seer admits no check on his authority, and a Mormon pontiff admits no check on his autho
