Snow Camp.
We etarted from thi* camp about

melt very rapidly. The country travel-

except alongóle left- Band side of tbe
Nashville road. Upon the banks of
Brushy and Oabriol, aro the only settle-
ments, and here in Milam county can
be seen far to the left, Little River.
Brushy empties into Gabriel, tlie Ga-
briel into Little Rivor, and Little River
into tlie Brazos. The country U part
prairie, and sandy post oak
it oak land is very thickly

I game have been squirrels,
is called Cat Tail, from the
Cat Tail Springs,at this Creek. The prin-
cipal formation ia the common sandstone
rock. Theso «pringa are strongly im-
pregnated with Iron. From Snow Camp
to Cat tail Springs is about sixteen
miles. This is tito only running water
after you leave Walnut Creek near Aus-
tin. After crossing Cat Tail Crepk you
will find the spring about one hundred
yard from the rood to the right. 1

Te travelled about 18 milos. Our camp
" y is on Finn Oak Creek, about
ht miles from Nashville. No corn in
i section of country. We arrived at
lie to-day about one o'clock. Tlie
ited on the Brazos river,
a high bluff, very few houses,
a good country. The place, we
m, has gono down, from tho fact that
the land has been for a long timo In
litigation. Lost night wo' camped on
Little Brazos, a sluggish, unhealthy-
looking stream. No fiih, but little
i game and pleuty of alligators. To day,
at twelvo o'clock, the oate of this let-
ter, we entered the town of Wheelock
very pretty place, of some size. This
place is situated on the Yegua, (a run
ning stream which empties into tho
Brazos,) and is altogotner a ploasant
place.

Wo hare not Jben the article to which
brothor Garret refers, but our attention
was called to one In the Southern Intel-

to us or to any of our correspondents,
we should have given it space in order
to convince tho bold writer of his want
of information, and his want of ability
to sustain his positions. But as wo do.
not desire to discuss the revision sub-

true position as a denomination, we
