The house committee on military afi;dre( ooutiiiiied to'-drjy, , the examination exam-ination ol General Ord in reerence to attaira oa the Jiio. Grunde. He, as all other witnesses who have .spoken, on the tmbject,-ia. inclined to give the Diaz goverinneuirof Mexico credit for good, iuientiune To regard to preventing prevent-ing ciiltle, raids irom .'Mexico into Tex:,9.'., He, produced au article from ;a rec. nt number of the Diarip Official of Mi iioo stating that two divisions of i,70( men of, the'regular'. army have tieen .dispatched to tbe "Rio Grande r r- 1 - 'it - . j 11 uui.it; 1 iuuuux uutifi j.reviuu auu Canaleb; that'.a third division of 2,000 men would follow, and that tbis force would be sufficient, to guard against Indian, incurdions .into Mexico, as well aa against any project of inva-aiorjB inva-aiorjB on the part of volunteers from the United States. 1 General Ord does ! hot "think that the 'presence of 1 tfhese Mexican troops oh the frontier ill be- likely to cauBe any colliaion between the authorities of the two '-countiies, pirticulnrly if any good teehng is cultivated bt-tween tbe officers. ' !He says that if be were in command of a party of United States troops that had crosaed into Mexico, and if he were to meet a like party of Mexican troopa he would engage to have the' Mexican officers dining with him the Bame day. To a playful inquiry as to whether it would be in tbe capacity of guests or prinouers be said he would give them their choice, and that he had no doubt they would prefer a good dinner to a tight. He thinks that reinlorGements now on their way to Texas will increase his command to 5,000 men, of whom three-filths will be cavalry, and that force will be amply sufficient. |
