town a wrecked and cast away appearance. The places which were once so fell of life were now the crumbling habitations of the dead, and active and excited revealers war groped through the ruins were like tourists searching amid the columns and under the tottering walls of Palmyria and the dead cities of the plain. The New Orleans Delta says that among the killed in the final assault at Matamoras was Col. Henry L. Kinney, of Texas, who is well known as a daring soldier and extensive speculator. Col. K. was a native of Pennsylvania, and removed to Texas in 1815. He was for many years a member of the Texas Legislature, and was, at the time of his death, one of the few surviving members of the Senate of the Republic of Texas. He made a fortune out of army contracts during the Mexican war, and was for a while connected with one of Walker's expeditions to Central America. He was killed by a ball which passed through a loop-hole in the fortifications, and took affect in his head.
