Bliss, Col. W.W.S. Death of Col.
Bliss We are pained to state
that the Mobile papers received last nightconfirmed the
report of the death of Col. W. W. S. Bliss, of the
United States Army. He died at Pascagoula, between
twelve and one o'clock on the morning of the 5th
instant. The gallant officer
was one of the most distinguished in our service, as
well for his intellectual as his military qualities.
During the Mexican war he was the Adjutant General to
gen. Taylor, serving in all the battles on the northern
line of operations, and by his indomitable energy, his
deliberate courage, and, most of all, by the memorable
despatches, identifying himself with the fame of his
illustrious commander. Since the peace he has been
recognized both in and out of the army as one of the
most valuable officers in the service. Soon after
the close of the war he married Miss betty Taylo, the
daughter of the illustrious General; thus crowning his
military career with the most signal evidence of the
confidence and affection of his commander, who also
constituted him his private secretary when elected to
the Presidency, which he filled for so brief a period.
Col. Bliss, at the time of
his death, was attached to the staff of Major. Gen.
Twiggs, and was with his headquarters at East Pascagoula
when attacked with the bilious fever, of which he died.
This sad news will be received with profound regret in
all parts of the country, which will preserve and honor
his memory. [Daily National Intelligencer, August 12,
