Tennessee has good reason to be proud of Preston Smith. Brigadier-General Thomas Benton Smith Brigadier-General Thomas Benton Smith, entering the Confederate service in the Twentieth Tennessee, first stood the crucial test at Shiloh, where the colonel of the regiment, J. A. Battle, was captured. When Breckinridge attacked Baton Rouge on August 5, 1862, Smith had been promoted to colonel of the regiment. On this occasion he commanded one of the two brigades of the division of Gen. Charles Clark. The Confederates were at first successful, defeating the enemy in the field, though exposed to the fire of the Federal fleet as well as of the army. General Breckinridge says in his report of the battle: Colonel Smith, commanding Fourth brigade, composed of the consolidated Tennessee regiments and the Twenty-second Mississippi, was ordered forward, and moved against the enemy in fine style. At the battle of Murfreesboro, Gen. William J. Hardee bears this testimony concerning Colone

t upon the assertion made some time since that Gen. Houston was dead: To the Editor of the Chicago Times: I have heard that a man calling himself Rev. Charles Clark, and professing to be a son of ex- Gov. Clark, of Texas, and son-in-law of General Sam. Houston, lately made some statements concerning the alleged death ofex- Gov. Clark, of Texas, and son-in-law of General Sam. Houston, lately made some statements concerning the alleged death of his father-in-law, at a public meeting held in Boston. Now, this reverend gentleman is certainly an impostor of the blackest dye, as Gov. Clark's eldest child is a boy twelve years of age, and my eldest sister is but a little girl at school. I left home last March, and my father, Gen. Houston, was then in better health than of the blackest dye, as Gov. Clark's eldest child is a boy twelve years of age, and my eldest sister is but a little girl at school. I left home last March, and my father, Gen. Houston, was then in better health than he had been for years. I am respectfully, Sam. Houston, Jr., Prisoner of War. Camp Douglas, Aug. 2, 1862.

Moyson, commanding a detached squadron, consisting of company E, Capt. Moyson's own company, with detachments from companies A and B, Starnes's cavalry, informing him of the near approach of the enemy's fleet.--Immediately upon the captain's receiving the information, "boots and saddles" were sounding, when the command marched to the river, just below General Charles Clark's plantation, and concealed themselves in a grove of timber, and quietly awaited the arrival of the foe. They were not long kept in suspense, for about five o'clock P. M., one gunboat passed them without interruption, then came a transport, on which no troops were to be seen. She, too, passed unmolested. Then here came a transport literally covered and filled with Hessians. As she got precisely opposite our force, Captain Moyson, in a loud and distinct voice, gave the command "fir
