Brig. Gen. MCCULLOCH is satisfied that this first disgrace brought upon the name of Texas, is almost exclusively perpetrated by renegades from other States who entered Texas last fall and winter to avoid the struggle in Missouri and Arkansas and joined these regiments in Texas only to escape an indignant public opinion. They should never be allowed to pollute our soil again. A few of the names of these miscreants are recognized as those suspected of abolition and toryism anterior to the secession of the State. By order of Brig. Gen. HENRY MCCULLOCH, JNO. HENRY BROWN, Major & A. Adjt’ Gen.
