No. 89.J Headquarters Vrmy op Occupation, Camp before Monterey, Sept. 22, 1846. Sir: 1 have the honor to rertort that, the troops Under my command, including the mounted volunteers from Texas, marched from Marin on the 18th, and encamped be fore Monterey on the 49th inst It was immediately discovered that' the enemy occupied the town in force, and had added greatly to its strength by fortifying the approaches and. commanding : heights. A close recohnoissance Was made the same evening by the officers of engineers and topographical engineers on both flanks of the town, and it was determinedfrom the information procured, to occupy the Saltil I o road in rear of the town, carrying, if practicable, the several fortified eminences in that direction: The 2d division of reg ular troops and a portion of Col. Hays's regiment of mounted 'volunteers -was ac cordingly detached under Brig. Gfen. Worth on this service, at noon on the 20th. A ten-inch mortar and two' 24-pounder howitzers were placed in battery during the night to play upon the citadel and town. At 7 o'clock these guns opened and continued k deliberate fire, which was returned. To create a still further diver sion in favor of Gen. Worth's movement, the remainder of the force, except a camp guard was displayed arou nd the Centre and left-erf the town. The infantry and 1 bat tery of the 1st division made a strong de monstration an the left, and soon , became so closely engaged that I moved forward the yoltfnteer division under Major Gener al Butler-to its support, leafing one battal ion (1st Kentucky) ta cover the mortar battery. A close Contest then ensued, which resulted in the Capture of one strong battery of four gurrs, which with7 same ad jacent defences our troops how occupy . A garrison was left to hold this position, afnd the remainder of the force returned to camp.- , j - ..' .."' the' mean time 6eneral Worth fratf engaged the enemy early in the morning, and defeated him With considerable loss. In the course of tne day tiva of the batter ies in rear of the town were carried j by Storming parties of the 5fd division, and a third was carried this morning at dawn of day. The Bishop's Palace occupied the only remaining height in rear of the town, and is completely commanded oy the Works already carried. Gew. Worth's d t tision occupies the Saltillo rbadr and" cuts offaU succor or support from the in terror.
