| Reserve Camps |
| We learn from the Austin Gazette that Gen.
Clark has selected Millican's, the terminus of the Houston
{& Texas} Central Railroad, and Victoria
{San Antonio & Mexican Gulf RR}, as the
points for the location of the reserve camps. One thousand men will be
stationed at each camp, where they will be mustered into the service of
the Confederate States to serve during the war, unless sooner
discharged. This force will be infantry exclusively, and will be
admirably situated to repel any invasion of the coast. |
