No. 2.

Government and military commandancy of the state of Coahuila de Zaragoza.

You will perceive by the enclosed letters of a correspondence between this department and General Douay the terms he proposes for an exchange of prisoners taken in the battle of Santa Isabel. You will make them known to the president of the republic, and send me his opinion about the business, or you may send them directly to the general-in-chief of the army corps of the north, who transferred the prisoners to the State of New Leon because he apprehended an expedition by the enemy in that district.

A. S. VIEZCA.

Eduardo Muzquiz, Secretary to the Minister of War, (wherever he is to be found.)
