the protection 0i tho Texas frontier.
Mr.. SPARROW, Of the Military Committee,

uoder the lsw, providing for cases like this.
Mr.. OLDHAM explained the situation Of the
Texas frontier, stating that for IS years it had
bsen exposed 10 IndiEn dopredations, and that
it has always bnen necessary to have a force
there to protect the inhabitants from rowing
bsods CT Will Indians. The citizens along
tho border ought to hc received in tho army to
serve there on tho spot, Sherc their homes are
threatened. They wen't ga away from notns,
because they c~annot-and lca9e ih&r homes

will so KEEP. or the fro,ticr anyhow, but it is
The duty Of the Oonfsderacy to protect tho
borders, and wo merely wish the men to be
paid by the General Government.
Mr.. ORs, OF South Carolina, asked if the
law Of the Provisional Government did not
cover the ciae, and if the President would not
cecaive this regiment under the law
Dir OLDHAM replied that the President had
refused 10 receive them.
Mr.. JOHNSTON, Of Arkansas, was opposed to
employment OF Tcxsn troops residing on the
border in defsncs Of the frontier, because
they, snartiug under the infection, and depre.
ds.ions of the Indians, were likely to keep up
continual warfare and bloodshel. II the
frontier whites are employed in the SER
vice, it will always bo 3 signal for an
instantaneous aght whenever they meet an
Indian. lie dssilsd Confederate troops to be
sent there, and the pescefrl policy of the tres
ties with these tribes sad bands carried out,
