portunity which his position gave him, and rendered distinguished service. Captain Downing joined his company, G, on the 22d at Buena Vista. He had heard at the Rinconada that we were about to be attacked, and though the road was beset by rancheros, he hastened forward and took command of his company in the morning. In the first engagement of the 23d this company was particularly distinguished, and fulfilled the expectations which its high state of discipline had warranted. Second Lieutenant McNulty was killed when leading a portion of the company in a charge. First Lieutenant Greaves and Second Lieutenant Hampton, for their gallantry in battle and uniform good conduct, deserve the highest consideration. There were many instances of both officers and men who, after being wounded, remained upon the field and continued to discharge their duties until active operations had ceased. Such was the case of Captain Sharp, who, though shot through both thighs, evinced so great re

, and all private property to be respected. Notwithstanding the gallant unwillingness of Colonel Mulligan to surrender, affairs had reached a condition that rendered such an operation an imperative necessity. With the exception of the little water obtained while the wounded were being removed the night before, the command had had nothing to drink for forty-eight hours. In addition to this, they had no round shot except a few rough-hewn specimens manufactured at a neighbor foundry by Captain McNulty, of the cavalry. They had a few shells, but they were unfilled, and when filled no one could manufacture fuzes. Even with shell ready for firing, they had only two miserable little affairs which they called mortars, but which were more properly machines for testing the strength of powder. The muskets of the command were generally the old smooth-bore, with balls of the wrong calibre. The cavalry were put in the trenches to fight, and had nothing to do it with except horse pistols.

to be a law of growth that all natural advantages are disregarded wherever once business chooses a location. Old Sutter's embarcadero became Sacramento City, simply because it was the first point used for unloading boats for Sutter's Fort, just as the site for San Francisco was fixed by the use of Yerba Buena as the hide-landing for the Mission of San Francisco de Asis. I invested my earnings in this survey in three lots in Sacramento City, on which I made a fair profit by a sale to one McNulty, of Mansfield, Ohio. I only had a two months leave of absence, during which General Smith, his staff, and a retinue of civil friends, were making a tour of the gold-mines, and hearing that he was en route back to his headquarters at Sonoma, I knocked off my work, sold my instruments, and left my wagon and mules with my cousin Charley Hoyt, who had a store in Sacramento, and was on the point of moving up to a ranch, for which he had bargained, on Bear Creek, on which was afterward establish

hanics, and they did a great deal of useful work. Several thousand stand of arms in the course of the campaign were rendered serviceable, which, otherwise, would have had to go to Richmond, and a good deal of artillery harness was repaired. When Milroy ran away from Winchester, in 1863, he left over twenty pieces of artillery, all of them spiked. Our workmen rendered them all fit for service within a day. My principal workmen were Mr. Gwaltmey, of Norfolk, Mr. Custard, of Maryland, and Mr. McNulty, of Highland county, Virginia. This repair-shop, as well as the special ordnance reports, I placed under charge of Lieutenant I. T. Walke, of Norfolk, who subsequently fell, October 9, 1864, while gallantly fighting with General Fitz. Lee, whose ordnance officer he then was. My principal assistant, who took charge of all the other ordnance property and kept the accounts, was Lieutenant William M.
