MILITARY POSTS AND INDIANS. Now, Mr. Chairman, I propose to show the ne- cessity for some of these posts which have been es- tablished. I first come to the State of Texas, where no small portion of our little army i3 stationed, and I propose to show that there is a necessity for the stationing of these forces there. The number of Indians stated to be in Texas, by our official and unofficial reports, much vary. The Camanches in some quarters are stated to be twenty thousand in number. The Lipans... are estimated at five hun- dred. There are Wacoes, Keechies, Caddoes, An- da:"co3, Ionies, Shawanees, and other unnamed tribes. There are fierce and wild tribes, I am told, not even reported by our Indian Depart- ment, or not yet discovered by our Indian agents. The Indians in Texa3, I am authorized to say by the honorable member from eastern Texas, (Mr. Scuhry, ) who has been much in the Indian coun. Try, number, in the lowest estimate, twenty thou- sand, and they are Indians of a warlike and fe- rocious character.
