Tie TEXAS RANGERs-This bocy of men,
some 200 or l,500in number, who have lor
some weeks been cncampcd on the Fair
Grounds at Nashville, haze attracted large
STARE o: attention, and for their general good
conduct have elected universal admiration.
They are, we understand, a picked body ol
men, selected from some four or five thousand
who presented themselves, and are all dstln:
euishcd for their courage, size, strength, skill,
and powers of endurance. They are generally
men OF means, and their bearing and conduct
evincc them 10 be gentlemen. They arc we'll
armed with double barrel shot guns, rifles,
carbncs, rcvolyers, and huge knives, which
are destined TO do terrific work when they
meet the abclilionists of the North in battle.
AS riders they are uncquallcd. At full speed
they can easily pick up half dollar !rom the
ground. They are perfectly at home on the
horse AMI in exhibiting their !cats seem al
m,s, 10 be part Of the animal they ride.
Thousands of citizens lave been to see them
at the Fair Grounds, and they have been
constant wonder. They arc well mounted,
and we venture 10 say that they arc now the
most formidable body of men in the Confed-
crate service. We do not say it in any spirit
of vain boasting, but VIC believe that when
the ,lay of trial comes they will be found
more than equal to thrice Or four times their
number. When they meet Lincoln's minions
and the imported Dutch they nave brought
here to help the despot subjugatc us, they
will hcw their way through the cncmy's rank:
in a way so terrific and destructive as to fiji
with dislnay and terror all who oppose their
victorious progress.

no sooner do get my paper than they flock
around me inquiring after the news. They
follow me home; and il I sit down TO read,
they lean over my shoulder, and push their
heads Into my face. LII lay down the paper
for a moment, they pick it up, and sometimes
hours will clapse before can see it again
and not uncrequentlyitis carried away before

their guns or that position were as vcritaGic
"dummics' as ever had adorned the windows
Of chemists shop, and that the Capital Lad
bccn threatened by nothing more terrible than
few logs and stove pipe, the Federals were
very naturally seized with fit OF contemptu-

these shams had served their turn. They
had deceived the encmy for u time; aud,
when their trick was discovered, they left
them still in utter ignorance Of the plans Of
Bcauregard and his army. Nor could the
Northern troops, when they had detected the
harmless stratagem, assert with any truth that
there were false pretcnccs only on the Nirs-
mia side of the river Potomac. y fiction on

in its position with regard TO American al

the situation of Maryland in any otEer than

to condemn the further prosecution Of the

FREEDOM /" OF THE PREss.-Thc NasL-
inton Star Says:
1t will afford loyal men everywhere graft
tication to learn that it generally under
stood here that the Government have ordered
the party responsible for the PRONUNCIATION Of
tie New York Independents budget of infa-
nous talschoods concerning Mr.. Stewards
willingness, in a certain event, to recognize
the Southern Confederacy, and attributing to
hin, the expression of the opinion that there
would be peace in sixty days, to be taken into
custody and held in Fort Warren as dan
gerous enemy of the Union catse. We re-
joice that the authorities thus manifest that
they ere indeed in earnest in their efforts to
protect the public interest.
The New York Tribune, of the same day,
has the following:
A despatch from Washington iutimates that
the reverend editors Of the Independent are
about to be sent to Fort Lafayette, the para
graph which We copied from that paper and
commented upon two days ago being coasid-
cred as reasonable. We trust that previous
good character may be permitted to lie urged
in mitigation of so severe penalty.
