Dear K.-I seize an opportunity to drop you a line but as 1 am fearful that it will be a bad chance for you ever to receive it, I shall say but litle. Our regiment arrived here safely from Mobile, except Edward Ramsey, of the '96 Boys, who died on Sunday, 7th inst., and was buried at sea. A new and sol emn burial to the most of us. The Island of Lobos is 65 miles below or South of Tampico, and 135 west) of Vera Cruz. The most of the '96 Boys get along prety wel ; several have had the mutmpt since leaving Hamburg, and some jol them suffered severely at sea; and I among the rest-for three days. Thos. Tillman was also very sick, but is now on land and getting very heary. Padgett, of !the '96 Boys, got his feet badly -scalded ,n 'the passage, by a pot of c6ffee accidentally turning over, while on shipboard. but is now doing very well. The rest of the company are all well. aid .you-would be very much surprised to see the manner in which some of our tender youths handle an axe, or spade. or middling of Bacon and I must.here say, that,the least com plaints are made by those who have been unaccustomed to hardships. :-W. Bleaer, Whit. Brooks, Dr. Ardis, Galphin, Sin kins, David Adams,)r. Key, Wm. Cobb, Lafayette Wever, and many other tender youths of your acquaintance, make most excellent soldiers-always on hand, -at Reveille, Roast Beef. or any other duty. Taking our company all together, they are in ine health and spirits; an'd will from the Captain down do their fluty in any emergency. There are now five regiments here, viz: The Palmetto. Pennsylvania, Tenwessee, Mississippi and Louisiana.. Regiments. We have here now lying off 13 ships, and are daily expecting 15 more with volun teers and regulars. As soon as they -all arrive we shall, I understadd, make an at tack by land and sea on Vera Cruz, which I presume will give our boys some work to take. * * * * It is now half past 2 o'clock, A.

Scott briefly in formed us that if we redelied the Ric Grande by the 1st of Feb., our ship musi report to him, if not, the'n r'epair to this island and await further orders. T-he former was out of our power.for want ol time, so we proceeded on our asearch..ol this small -speck- on the..bosom of -these beautiful blue waters.' After being batf fested about -by -two or three 'Northets' for Iwo weeks, our sight was gratified by the Stars and Stripes flying from the petlt of. the sloep of war St. Marg's.
