The enemy held the railroad at each crossing and were in the depot, and Dickison, dismounting most of his men, ordered a detachment under Captain Rou and Lieutenant McCardell to move up on the left and take the depot, while Lieutenant McEaddy with a mounted platoon on the right flank and Lieutenant Dozier in the center advanced and drove the enemy from the road. Our artillery was in the rear, shelling with good effect, and the enemy's artillery was near Beville's hotel shelling our battery at a furious rate. Soon the Federals were driven from the depot, and with our small arms we got a cross-fire on their guns, killing every horse but one in the caisson. The fight grew very exciting, the right and left closing in around the town.

flags taken from the Mexicans. This officer, who was severely wounded at Puchia, and who now walks with difficulty, aided by two crutches, was received on his arrival by the Emperor, who said to him, on shaking his hand, "Bon jour, Commandant." A bed was made up for the officer at the Imperial residence, and this morning, by a delicate attention, His Majesty sent to Monllins for a pair of the epaulette worn by Commandants of the Staff, which were delivered to Capt, De Gaililet by Gen. De. Beville, in the Emperor's name.
