We have had these "emissaries of fanaticism" amongst us, burning our houses, destroying our towns and villages, distributing poison, and inciting our negroes to insurrection, arson and murder — A few weeks ago one of these emissaries at tempted to proclaim his doctrine in San Antonio, when a fight ensued, and a Southern man was killed, and this fanatic permitted to escape. In Gonzales, the Lexington of Texas, a regiment of a thousand men, armed and equipped for battle, have been organized headed by the brave and gallant Texan, Jabez C Wilson, a man tried in the dark days of the Texas revolution; a man who spurned the protection of the British flag, and who preferred as a Texan to draw for the black bean, rather than claim protection under any than the Lone Star flag In our own little town, we have organized a company of about eighty men.
