The Second Battle of Mesilla was an unusual engagement of the American Civil War. It was fought on July 1, 1862, and was the last engagement between Union and Confederate forces in the Arizona Territory. A skirmish outside of Confederate Arizona's capital of Mesilla between a confederate party and local pro-Union New Mexican guerrillas resisting the Confederate foraging expedition, resulted in a United States victory. Various accounts report from seven to twelve Confederates killed, including their commander Capt. Cleaver of the 7th Texas Infantry and as many as 40 of the local guerrillas.

| - La seconda battaglia di Mesilla è stato l'ultimo scontro combattuto nel Territorio Confederato dell'Arizona nell'ambito della guerra di secessione americana. Si trattò più che altro di una scaramuccia senza spargimento di sangue tra miliziani confederati e nordisti nei pressi della città di Mesilla. Qualche giorno dopo, il 4 luglio, l'arrivo della California Column sulla riva occidentale del Rio Grande spinse i sudisti a ritirarsi verso El Paso e San Antonio (Texas). (it)
