(V
ed proofs on the part of the citizens that every Texian is as desirous of
I i securing to the soldiers their dearly earned rights as they are to main
tain their own ; jealousy and distrust will therelore entirely disappear
before the unquestionable evidence of truth.
We rejoice that we are at length enabled to furnish the official ac-
count of the capture of the Independence. We have hitherto foreborne
offering any comments upon the former vague accounts of this transac-
tion,1 as we felt confident that many important facts had been overlooked
which would completely exculpate oar gallant lavs from any disparaging
imputations. We confess that when the first news of this combat ar-
rived, containing'lhe inlelligenee that the Independence had surrender-
ed to two Mexican brigs without having received any injury, and her
crew, unhurlj-a- Ah of shame and indignation mantled on our checks
and the exclamation "30 or 40 cowards and an old hulk are no loss,"
almost involuntarily fell from our lips; teller we thought it would have
been if this crew dauntlessly nailing their unsullied fbg to the mast
head, hurling their mortal defiance to the grovelling foe had fought on.
nnd on, shouting the stern war cry of "victory or death," until the star
"of Texas, like the "star of day" went down in glory beneath the blood
-fed billows, whose foaming crests were ringing t- the last exulting cry
of an unconqi'crcd band of freemen !
' But thc-following statements have fully convinced us th-.t -,e did
injustice to those gallant tars, in harboring oven for a moment a thought
so unworthy of them and of the Texian name.
Far from blaming them for this surrender we rejoice that they
may yet be preserved to ride through the battle storm which shall rend
Ihe tyrant banner from the mast it disgraces. This desperate and pro-
tracted conflict will long hold a prominent place in the annals of Texas,
and like the fall of the Alamo, it shall inspire our children with enobling
sentiments. No (lush of shame shall redden their yoiithf.il cheeks as
they read the page which declares that thirty-one Texians six only of
these seamen in a slow sailing armed schooner mounting only six mxes
and onelong nine fought four hours and a half, two Mexican armed
brlgi?j.one mounting u16 medium eighteens" with a crew of 140 men;
the other mounting "S brass 12 pounders";? and one long eighteen mid-
ship, with a crew of 120 men ! ! One is astonished in reflecting that tin's
little,vessel was not annihilated by the first broad side from her power-
ful opponents, her daunlles3 little crew appear to have been preserved al-
most by a miracle, and it is cheering to reflect that their heroic conduct
has furnished new proofs that our national escutcheon yet remains
bright and untarnished'. True the flag of our country has once been
struck on the stormy billows of the Gulf, bu like the Roman eagle stoop-
ing before the sword of Epirus, it has wrung from the abashed conquer-
er the bitter confession "Such men are invincible."
- Brazos de St. Iago, April 2lst, 1837.
To the honorable S. Rtioads Fishek, Secretary of the Navy.
Sir. I have the honor herebv to transmit vou an account of the
e late engagement between our government vessel Independence and two
of the enemy's brigs of war, one the Libertador of sixteen eighteen-
pounders, 140 men; the other, the Vincedor del Alamo, mounting six
twelve-pounders, and a long eighteen a-midslups, with one hundred men.
Captain Wheelright having during the action received a very dangerous
wound, the duty of sending this, melancholy communication has devolv-
ed upon me. To wit:
On the morning of the 17th, in latitude 29 deg. N., longitude 95
deg. 20 min. W., at oh. 30 in A. M, discovered two sail about 6 miles
to windward; immediately beat to quarters; upon making us out they
bore down for us with all sail set, signalized, and then spoke each other.
At 9 h. 30 m., the Vincedor del Alamo bore away, getting in our wake to
rake us, the Libertador keeping well on our weather quarter, we im-
mediately hoisted our colors at the peak. The enemy in a few minutes
hoisting theirs, the Libertador on our weather quarter edging down for
us all the time, till within about one mile, gave us a broadside, without
wounding any of our men or doing other damage; the fire was at the
same time returned from our weather battery, consisting of three sixes
nnd the pivot, a long nine, the wind blowing fresh, and from our extreme
lowness our lee guns were continually under water, and even the weath-
or ones occasionally dipped their muzzles quite under. The firing on
both sides was thus briskly kept up for nearly t,vo hours, the raking
shots fronvthc Vincedor in our wake, nearly all passing over our heads,
as yet sustaining but trifling injury; atl) h. 30 m. the Libertador on our
weather quarter, bore away and run down till within two cables length
of us, luffed and gave us abroadside of round shot, grape and canister,
while alUhis time the brig Vincedor in our wake continued her raking
fire. Notwithstanding this we still continued on our course for Velasco,
maintaining a hot action for full 15 minutes, with some effect upon her
sails and rigging. The Libertador now hauled her wind, widening her
distance, apparently wishing to be further from (is, when she again open-
ed her fire, which was on our part kept up without cessation. At 11
A. M. she again bore away, run down ciosc to our quarter and gave us
anotherbroadside of round shot, grape and canister, which told plainly
on our sails and rigging; as before she again hauled her wind to her for-
mer position, and played us briskly with round shot, one of which struck
our hull going through our copper and buried itself in her side. At 11
h. 30 m. A. M. a round shot passed through our quarter gallery, against
which captain Wheelright was leaning, inflicted a severe wound on his
right side, knocked the speaking trumpet out of his hand, terribly lacer-
ating three of his fingers; he was conveyed below to the surgeon, leav-
ing orders with me to continue the action. e still held on our course
inour respective positions, keeping up an incessant fire, for a full half
hour when the enemy signalized; then the Vincedor in our wake luffed
up and gained well on our weather quartei : at that time the Libertador,
on our weather .beam bore away and ran down under our stern within
pistol shot, our decks being completely exposed to her whole broadside,
and at the same time open to the raking fire of the Vincedor on our weath-
er quarter. In this situation, further resistance being utterly fruitless,
and our attempts to beach the vessel ineffectual, I received orders, from
captain Wheelright to surrender, which was done.
The only damage done to our vessel, was that of parting some of
our rigging, splitting the sails, a round shot in her hull, and the quarter
gallery, -which was shot away. Captain Wheelright was the only per-
son wounded on board. We shot away the Libertador's main top gal-
lant mast, unshipped one of her gun carriages, took a chip off the after
part of her foremast, killed two men, and cut her sails and rigging se-
verely. We were immediately boarded by capt D.ivis of the Liberta-
dor, who pledged his honor, and that of commodore Lopez who was then
on board, that we should receive honorable treatment as prisoners of
war, as officers and gentlemen, and as soon as an exchange could be ef-
fected, we should be sent home. The kind attention and courtesy we
have received from commodore Lopez, captain D-ivis and officers has
been truly great, for which we tender them our sincere thanks, likewise
captain Thompson of the schooner of war Bravo has extended every ci--

passengers, the honorable Wm. II. Wharton, Mr. Levy, Surgeon T. N.,

PRYOR BRYAN. -
Dearest Friend : Brazos de Santiago, 5th May, 1867. I NOTICE.
When we parted in New Orleans I little anticipated that my first
communication to you would be dated from one of the strongholds of our
enemy. Nevertheless such has the cruel pervesity of my late willed it.
But I trust this will now not occasion you any surprise, as you have
without doubt long ere this been fully acquainted with the particulars of
the capture of the Independence, by two large Mexican brigs of war,
(at a lime when we were not more than about 30 miles from Velasco.)

is not the case with our officeis at Matcmoros: fovc'lhoi.gh thectrnniu-
dore promised that they should be upon iuroic, they had no sooner arri-
ved at M. than thev were all confined in u cuartel, since when they
have been neglected, and had ft not been for the attentions of the stran-
gers they would have suffered very much for '.vant of pro:siins end
other necessaries. I believe that the Mexicans at present do not medi-
tate any violent measures towards us, though from the faithlcsnessof
he nation, which is proverbial, it is impossible to afUrm what their fu-
ture cours- may be. Perhaps they arcjnst in the mocd to effect an
exchange, provided our government would be.prompt to seize the oppor-
tunity. ' ' "
I will now gi e ou a short'accoutit of their present condition, as
far as I know it; for all that I write is knowledge, not conjecture r un
certainty. B-it from the rmall compass of a letter sneet, 1 shall ue oOji-
straincd to mention the mest prominent heads, and that very succinctly.
J hey have recently given high umbrage to the united States by captur
ing several American vessels bound to the republic of Texas ; and not
satisfied with condemning cargoes and vessels, but have gone still fur-
ther, and adjudged the captains, crews, and passengers as pirates. Yes,
incredible as it may seem, there are now at Malamoros forty -five or
more American citizens, the crew, &c. of the Champion, Julius Caesar,
and others, who are charded with piracy agjinst Mexico, and are confin-
ed in a small room about twenty feet square, and frcm a dingy scrawl
which I have just read, and which one of them managed to smuggle oat,
of priscn, I have just learned that for the last sixty hours nothing in the
shape of sustenance has crossed their lips. The course intene'ed to be
pursued by the United States towards Mexico, will necessarily Le
known to 3ou long ere we can heir of it. In the mean time several of
the United States sloops of war have and are cruising along the coast
and while I write the Boston sloop of war is anchored about two miles
off the bar. In consequence of the above seiziiret, the Natchez sloop of
war two days before we landed here, captured not by way of reprisrl,
but as a piratical craft, the Mexican brig of war Urrca, charging her
with having taken as prizes American vessels and property. The Urrea
was sent into Pensacola. The Mexican navy at this time consists of
four brigs and one schooner, as follows :
1st, Libertador; 2nd, Iturbide; two new Baltimore built brigs, of
sixteen guns each, medium eighteen pounders, both alike I have been
on bo.ird of thcLibertadoi. which is a beautiful vessel such as a sea
man might be proud of. She is well armed and equipped, with a crew
of one hundred and forty of the best looking Mexicans I ever saw.
There arc a few Americans and English among the whole, say about
four or five, no more. The Iturbide is represented a3 being, the same
as the Libertador. I have not seen the Iturbide.
3d. Brig Vincedor do Ahiino, of eight brass 12 pounders, one
a Jong 18, a mid-ship guncrew 120 men, She is anold rotten hulk
of a thing, and sails badly. - . . .
4th. Brig Teran, 0 guns, calibre hot recollected; crew GO men;
vessel and equipments very indifferent, and worse if any thing than the
Vincedor.
5th. Schooner Bravo, mounting one large splendid double fortified
bell metal 12 pounder, and two common G nounders. Crew 50 men,
commanded by Thompson.
These are all the vessels they possess at present, with their real force
and condition. I have been on board of all these vessels, except the
Iturbide, of which I can give no certain information; it is said that she
is expected at Vera Cruz daily, somewhere from the north.- As soon
as Oom. Lopez ascertained upon his arrival here with us the presence
of the American squaeron, and their intention of taking all their vessels
of war as piratical, he immediately ordered the whole fleet into port
takinf .he Libertador, Vincedor and Independence to Vera Cruz, where
I presume they will remain close enough until the present difficulties
with ihe United States are adjusted. The Tcran and Bravo are at an-
chor In this port under the protection of a small fort mounting four guns,
and a o-arrison of 200 men. These vessels are both old, and not gqod
for much. From whit I hear, they are likely to rennin here till they
drop to pieces; at all events, they will not come out so long as the Uni-
ted squadron is on the coast. From the length of time (four hours and
a-half,) which the Independence fought twh of their largest vessels, 1
feel convinced that had the Tom Toby, or Brutus, or either of our schoon-
ers been with us, tint we would have proved too many for them; but
had three of our schooners been together, both brigs would inevitably
have been imdc prizes, and could still be so whenever tfiey will engage
them. With this I will close my sketch of their navy, rendering that
of their army (as mueh less important,) still shorter.
The army of operations against Te.as, commanded by Gen. Bra-
vo as commander-in-chief, and Fdisola as second, is assembled at Ma-
amoros to the number of four thousand of their best soldiers, and about
fifteen hundred more scattered about the adjacent villages and outposts,
makinfi in all 5,500, which howeuer is more formidable for its numbers
than in reality, for the following reasons. Ten or twelve days since
information was received at M. that a formidable revolution had broken
out at St. Luis Potosi. assist in quelling which two thousand men were
immediately despatched from M. to the scene of the insurrectionary
movement : and whit with doubling the forces at their out posts on the I
sea coast and on the Texas frontier, they have reduced their great' and t
