Sibley expresses the unflattering conviction that, except for its political geographical position, the Territory of New Mexico is not worth a quarter of the blood expended in its conquest ; and intimates that his soldiers would decidedly object to returning to that inhospitable, undesirable country.

Canby wisely declined to run a race of starvation across those desolate mountains, in the rear of the flying foe, but returned to Santa Fe, whence his order, of even date May 4, 1862. with Sibley's official report, claims that the latter had been compelled to abandon a country he had entered to conquer and occupy, leaving behind him, in dead and wounded, and in sick and prisoners, one-half of his original force.
