The TEXAS DEAD At FRANKLIN.-Messrs. Ed-
tors But few weeks ago, Miss NJ. A. ii. Gay,
of Decatur Ga, soliciting aid in this city, for
the laudable purpose of re-intering the Texans of
GTanbury's Brigade. who fell on the bloody battle
field of Franklin. Visiting that place for the pur-
pose of removing the remains of brother, who
had fallen in that brigade, her heart was moved
with sympathy when she saw his gallant comrades
all neglected and sleeping there so far from their
own sunny home. The citizens responded and
soon she raised four hundred dollars, which she
deposited with Mr.. W. ON Perkins of Franklin,
for this object. The bodies of some sixty five
Texans have been re-interred in the Soldiers
Cemetery on the plantation of Col John Nc
Gavock, and thus her wishes have been carried
out. They were cOfIined buried in rows of
twenty. with cedar head -boards lettered for five
dollars and forty cents each. The balance on
hand, she requested should be expended in re-
intering Arkansian. and the work is going on.
The Mssourians and portion of the Tennesseans,
are already buried near the Texans. 1t is hoped
that ere many weeks all the bodies on the battle
field viii be removed to this beautiful cemetery
Contributions are continually coming in to the
committee. at Franklin, for that purpose. Miss
Gay will be remembered with gratitude for her
noble efforts in behalf of the Confederate dead
by those everywhere who admire herosm.
Let the dead be gathered up. wherever they
sleep. and have arespectable intennent.
