On The 15th Day Of September, 1846, Kit Carson Was Placed In The
Command Of Fifteen Men, With Orders To Make An Overland Journey To
Washington, As Bearer Of Very Important Dispatches.
At The Time Of Which We Write, There Was No Steam Communication, As
Now, _Via_ The Two Great Oceans, Consequently, The Intercourse Between
Our Brave Countrymen In California And The Government At Washington
Wahich Every Man Lay With A Bandaged Stump Where
His Leg Should Be, I Think I Saw The Servian Spirit At Its Best. They
Had Been Newly Operated Upon, Their Sufferings Must Have Been Great, And
For Them All The Future Is Black With Forebodings.
