Smith, (Col. Of Rifles, ) and Col. Hay's regiment of Texan Mounted Riflemen, moved from the main camp at El Bosque de St. Domingo, at 2 P. M. , on the 20th. My instructions were, by a detour to the right, to endeavor to find and reach the Saltillo road, effect a thorough reconnoissance of the approaches to the city from that direction, to cut off supplies and reinforcements, and, if practicable, carry the heights. Owing to the difficulties of the ground after leaving the Marin, and before strik...ing the Presquina Grande road, the division had reached only six jjiiles — in consequence of the delay in making the route practicable for artillery, which service was executed by Capt. Sanders, at 6 P. M. , and was halted just without the range of a gun-battery upon the summit of an iso- lated hill, called Boma de Indcpendenria, midway on the ascent of which was the Bishop's palace. Thence a reconnoissance was made, under cover of detachments of Hay's Texans, to the intersection of the Presquina Grande route, then in our possession, with the Saltillo road.
