against by Generals Taylor and E. Kirby Smith, as will be shown further on, from which it will appear that wherever an invasion of Texas was planned, Texas soldiers would be found at the point of danger in full force to resist it. At the August election in Texas, Pendleton Murrah had been elected governor and Fletcher S. Stockdale, lieutenant-governor. The following were elected representatives in the Confederate Congress: B. F. Sexton, A. M. Branch, John R. Baylor, S. H. Morgan, Stephen H. Darden, C. C. Herbert. The Texas legislature met in regular session on November 2d, and Governor Murrah was inaugurated on the 5th. In his message he recommended that the State troops, consisting of men between 18 and 50 years of age be made permanent, and those between 50 and 60 be organized into companies in their respective counties, to be held as a reserve force to meet emergencies. A Texas reserve corps was organized, with Jas. W. Barnes, colonel, and Elwood M. Bean, K. B. Dewalt and
ounded, and 12 (missing) supposed to be. He saw four bearers of the State colors shot down—John Hanson, James Day, Charles H. Kingsley and James K. Malone. Then other men upheld the flag, four more of whom were shot down. Carter, of the Fourth, reported Lieuts. L. P. Hughes, A. J. McKean, H. M. Marchant, J. T. McLaurin, J. C. Billingsley and John Roach, mostly commanding companies, wounded. Color-bearer Parker was severely wounded and left on the field, and the flag was then borne by Captain Darden. He carried into action 200 men and lost 10 killed and 97 wounded. Captain Turner, of the Fifth, reported 5 killed and 81 wounded. On November 14, 1862, it appeared from the report of the adjutant-general of the army that two-thirds of the three Texas regiments were badly clothed and shod, and 180 were barefooted. At the battle of Fredericksburg the brigade was not engaged, but lost 1 killed and 5 wounded. It was now under the command of J. B. Robertson, promoted to brigadier-genera
ath, last winter, of Senator Peyton, of that State. Since the adjournment of the last Congress, Senator Mitchel, of Arkansas, has deceased, and Hon. Augustus H. Garland, a prominent member of the House of Representatives, has been elected to fill the unexpired term. In the House there will be a falling short. Hon. B. L. Hodge, of Louisiana, is dead, and the vacancy is not supplied. Hon. J. B. Helskell, of Tennessee, a prisoner in the hands of the Federals. The Texas delegation is not complete, lacking one. The State of Missouri is, for the first time, fully represented, having seven members. Messrs. Thomas L. Snead, Nimrod L. Norton, Peter S. Wilkes, and Robert A. Hatcher are the new members from Missouri. There is one new member from Tennessee, Hon. M. W. Cluskey filling the vacancy caused by the death of Mr. Currin. Hon. Stephen H. Darden is a new member from Texas, elected in the place of Hon. John A. Wilcox, who died suddenly from apoplexy in this city last session.
