I remember that, as a boy, in 1801-1 heard my Older comrades discuss these matters aud assert that the best way to beat enemies who stood across your path to dispute it with great gnus was to "come Scott over them, that is, turn tlieir position by a flank attack.

He had been with Scott In Mexico, and waa a prominent factor in the exploit atCerro Gorda where Santa Anna, with choice of and much position, superiority of numls-rmore in his favor, was not only outflanked by Scott, ns neatly as Hooker was by Stonewall at Clinnceilorsville, but Ids arm; wai completely routed and virtually destroyed. Scott made a clean swerp. Cerro Gordo was Scatts first bout witli Santa Auna. It was after the successful siege of Vera Cruz, when Scott bad set hit face toward the Mexican capital, the ancient seat of tbe Montczumns. Gen. Zachary Taylor, who had been thumping ths wily dictator on the Rio Grande line, scut his best troops to Scott, and Santa Anna hastened lo the scene to sample tiie uew American leader. The route from Vera Cruz to the City of Mexico is along the great national highway running through Jr.lnpa and Puebla. At a point twenty miles east of Julapa the Mexicans bad taken position to dispute Scott's advance, and to that place Santa Anna directed all bis troops from tiie Rio Grande, nnd the gathered from tha country at large. Cerro Gordo was a col lection of huts belonging to a ranch on the the mountains and the Rio slopes del Plan. . East of Cerro Gordo the national road winds among bare elevations sloping toward the American approaches, and commanding the roadway for a long distance. The Mexican defeases formed a both ends resting on the river. On the right three separate heights, 100 feet above the plain, were fortified end secured by abatis and manned with an aggregate of 1, 500 troops and 23 camions. Parallel with the road liehiml these heights was an extensive breastwork, with 4V) men ami 2 cannons, and across the road at an arrow pass between mountain and river were 7 cannons and 400 mon. Farther to tiie west and tbe Mexican left nnd looking down upon the pass was a conical hill 200 feet high, known as Cerro Telegrafa This hill was fortified near its su ininit with works of stone aud logs and was protected by falleu trees. It was the key of the position. On tbe extreme left a mound above Cerro Gordo ranch was occupies I by a force with 7 cannons.

Tills assault he believed would miscarry and Scotts army would lie idle in cauip and to tiie fevers that prevuiled in the low grounds Hlong the Rio del 1lan.

Tbe guns on the Tclegrafo opened in all directions, and Riley soon encountered a force of infantry moving down the slopes to head him off. In few moments his march turned into bnttla. At tiie same time a force of Mexi cans was seen mot ing still farther to their left, toward Cerro Gorda Capt. Lee again took up the roll of guide, and piloted Shields northward across the grand ravine, then west and south to the road beyond Cerro Gordo and tbe extreme Mexican left. While Riley and Shields were forging their way squarely to the Mexican rear. Atalaya and Telegrafo were to settle tiie issue, which for all was between them: Col. Harneys column upon tbe Atalaya comprised a battalion of the First artillery and tiie Third and Seventh regiments. Gen. Scott had decided to storm Telegrafa end the task fell to Harney, who was securely lodged upon Atalaya. The general in chief witnessed the assault, one of the gallant episodes of the war. At a signal Harneys men sprang from their cover, dashed down into tbe ravine between ths mountains, then up the steep aud rocky sides of the Tclegrafo to within sixty or seventy paces of the summit At that point tbo column reformed, and with another dash, Harney at the head, it struggled forward to the fiallsades ami breastworks. The battle was short and sharp sivords, bayonets and clubbed rifles backing and battering a way through every obstacle. Quick as a flash flags were exchanged on the lofty tower and tbe Mexican guns were turned agaiust the batteries on the road below. Meanwhile Riley had engaged the force west of Telegrafo sod driven it hack. Shields had penetrated to the rood at Cerro Gordo, united with Ritry and with him captured the battery there. Shields was severely wounded. On Pillows front the Mexicans held their fire until his brigade was close up to tbo guns. Then a vplley of grape from 23 gum swept the dense chaparral and tbe assault was abandoned. Pillow was wounded and lost 100 in his brigade. When the Mexicans on bis front saw the American colors Coating on the Telegrafo they felt that the game was up aud they threw down their arms. It was all over and was a combination flank movement without one mishap. Scott wroto home that he was embarrassed witii the result of his victory. He secured about 4,000 prisoners and was obliged to parole them for want of guards. Of cannon he took 43 and of muskets 3,300. The Mexican killed and wounded numbered about 1,000; the American, 431. The Mexicans were badly harassed in their retreat and lost more in that way than in defending their forts. Santa Anna escaped alone, and bin followers fled across the country without making a stand.
