That day concluded a series of splendid triumphs, that gave the acknowledged right to Texas, to be counted among the nations of the earth. The battle of San Jacinto proved to the world, that the little abused band of Texans were invincible, where liberty was the stake. From that day Texas ceas. ed to-be reviled, and no man instructed his friend to say, that he had not G. T.
