hold the desertion of a friend dishonor*

the desertion of the host oi friends in

cannot be stampeded.
Besides, tbey consider it a disgrace
foe a man to make a contract and tben
fail to comply with it, became be sup-
poses he can make money by so doing.
Still, politicians hold out secession to
them as a means of procuring gain,
and urge the prospect of profit as an
incentive to bind faith.
A repeal of tbe tariff; free trade, the
repudiation of exterior, and the sus-
pension of domestic debts, are urged as
inducements. Do tfyey treat those to
whom such considerations are held ont,
as honest, not to say honorable men ?
What opinion must they have of the

tbey tacitly assume, that voters can't

powerful motive that can be brought to
bear upon them, don't understand their
nature. They may not be the most pol-
ished people in the world, but they are
brave, manly and honest. Among
them are men who when the stars and
stripes were flung to the breeze before
the battlementa of Monterey, were
there. Can such men be made to sub
mit to the dictation of politicians ?—
With a native manliness braced by a
sense of military honor acquired on
more than one field of battl^can they
be made to do aught that would not be-
come an honorable man and a gentle-
man? Who can free them to vi&late
their plighted faith¿ to desert their
friends, and to turn their backs to their
foes ? Men that have stood by their
colors and followed their constituted
Leader amid the perils of battle, will
probably do so in time of peace, even
though the Leader they have chosen
may be the same that led them at San
Jacinto. He may be war-worn, and
may feel the weight of years, but his
spirit is still unbroken—his devotion
to bis country is unebilled, and he
bears himself its a man. Texas has

The people know who are responsi-

A Card to the Public.
U or date of the 8th inst., Judge
George W. Paschal wrote me a private
letter from Galveston, which was ucci-
dently droped in this place and picked
up, I believe, by one James M. Long,
and by 6orae means found its way into
the Comptroller's office, where it was
examined by a number of persons, as I
understand, with reference to its pub-
lication. But the contents not being
such as required its publication, or from
some other cause, it was determind, at
>t, not to give H a newspaper publi-
cation f and the letter, two or three
days since, found its way back to my
hands without alteration, except a good
deal worn and considerably soiled,
though no traces of blood visible. I
learn that it is reported on the streets,
by Dame Rumor no doubt, that this
letter contained " strong Black Repub-
lican sentiments," and also, that it "dis-
closes the existence of a plan for the
resistance, by force of arms, any action
on the part of the secessionists." Now
I deem it due to Judge Paschal, who is
temporarily absent, to state that there
is not a word of truth in either of these
representations, nor is there even any
dation from any thing contained in
letter, for either report, but to the

convention by districts, represent the
* sovereignty,' but the delegates to a
Southern convention cannot 1 Why ?
Because they are elected according to
law, which is a serious objection these
revolutionary times.
The objections urged against the
Governor's action on the score of ille-
gality, come with a peculiar grace
from gentlemen who are themselves
parties to au illegal, unauthorized and
revolutionary convention. Tho law
under whkjh the Governor has acted
was passed and approved in due form.
It has never been repealed. The very
emergency contemplated by it has aris-
en. The 'determination' 'to exclude by
force the citizens of the slave holding
States, from a just and peaceful par-
ticipation in the use and enjoyment of
the common property and territory of
the members of the Confederacy,' 'ow-
ing to the state of political feeling in
the Nor then States of the Confederacy,
operating upon the Federal government
may become effectual, and the expulsion
perpetual." This is the result of Black
Republican success, against which we
must intend, and yet, these law abid-
ing, legal-proceeding delegates to the
revolutionary convention, condemn the
Govcrnors^MMMH£ score of il!e-
t
and resolutions were unanimously ad-
opted as a
PLATFORM.
WHEREA8, The political condition of the
country is such as to render it neces-
sary for the people* of Texas to ex-
press, in their primary assemble?,
their opinions and wishes; and where-
as, we have received information that
ouY fellow-citizens in other connties
are expressing their desire that an
effort shall be made for the security
of the Constitutional rights of the
people of the South, within theUnion;
and whereas, we think it due to our-
selves, as conservative citizens of
Travis county, to give expression to
our views: Be it
Resolved, 1st, That in common with
all our fellow-citizens of the South, we
deplore the election of a candidate to
the Presidency of the United States, by
a sectional party, based on geographi-
cal distinctions: and believe that the
event appeals to the people of the ¿south
ern States to arouse themselves to vigi-
lance and action, for the preservation
of their institutions and rights.
2nd, That we will not submit to the
administration of the Federal'govern
ment npon principles hostile to the in-
stitutions of the Southern States Of the
Union; but are determined to maintain
our rights at all hazards and to the last
extremity; and wo are of the opinion
that the time has come for the final
settlement of all the differences between
the slaveholding and the non-slave-
holding States, in-such manner that
the public tranquility will not, in
the future, be disturbed by the agitation
of the slavevy question.
3d, That we believe our Constitu-
tional rights cun be maintained in the
Union; and that we are in favor of a
consultation of all the slaveholdin
States, for the accomplishment of that
object, * ; «;
4 th, That we are opposed to the im-
mediate separate secession of '<e c tate
of Tex-as from the Union, believing that
Ü¡w|#ecurity of our Conatitutioaal rights
can be most certainly attained by a

of the supporters of Bell, who
agreed with them in secession. But in
spite of all their trickery, wire working
and maneuvering, when the committee
met there was a disagrement in regard
to the resolutions which they sought to
be adopted. The bold and decided
stand tákéu by the minority of the com-
mittee against precipitate and extreme
measures, \vit:-i a full knowledge that
an overwhelming majority of the people
of the eounty were with them in this
matter, alarmed the extremists, and
final action npon the reports of the
committee was postponed for a week,
with the hope, as they pretended, that
ihe committee might agree, and it was
the second meeting ut which I was
presfiit.
During this week Lhe extremists were
diligently at work drilling their men,
sending to different parts of the county
to get their most reliable men, and in
a word, spying and doing secretly all
those things which iui riguers and wire
workers only knew to do. And in or-
der to .carry out their plans more effec-
tually, they had fifteen banners repre-
senting each of the Southern States
propared, and made arrangements with
one of the Principals of the female
schools of Paris, who made himself a
willing tool in this matter, for the use
of fifteen young ladies of his school, to
bear these blue banners in procession,
each one wearing a blue cockade. Poor,
innocent things, little did they suspect
that they were made instruments in
tbe hands of demagognes to accomplish
their treasonable purposes. Thus was
au effort made-fo make innocence, youth
and beauty iscrvo the purposes of dis-
union. At about 10 o'clock the proces-
sion formed upon the square, headed
by a military company. The appear-
ance of the blue banners and oftbe blue
cockades created in the minds of the
vast concourse of people in town, no
little indignation. In an instant it flash
ed upon the people that all this was a
disunion trick, notwithstanding the
protestations of those who got it up.

Really* in the hands of these gentlemen,

were for their rights in the Union
to follow that banner, And, notwith-
standing the pretty young* ladies with
their blue banners and cockades, three-
fourths of the people of their own ac-
cord, and without any preconcert, threw
themselves in procession under the ban-
ner of the stars and stripes, and march-
ed to the large Baptist church, enter-
ing at the opposite door'from that en-
tered by those bearing and following
the blue banner aud cockades. The
bearer of the stars and stripes went
forward and hoistr 1 it over or near the
Chairman. One of the young ladies
delivered an address, and perhaps de-
livered^# banner, of this I cannot speak
with certainty, because the confusion
was such that I could not tell what
was done, being in the outskirts of the
cro^d. _ W. B. Wright, Esq., responded
in some common place platitudes about
the pat- * tism of woman, the influence
of beauty, and that " these young ladies
had asked to take a pa t in these proceed-
ings? The effort of this gentleman
showed him to be a speaker of about
the tenth rate.
When "this ceremony was over, the
committee was called upon for a report.
W.B.Wright read the report of the
majority and Mr. Minor, editor of the
Paris Press, of the minority. The prin-
cipal contest was whether the Govern-
or should be requested to convene the
Legislature or not. The majority of
the comrnittae favoring this, aud the
minority opposing. Messrs. Brown,
Bennett and W. B. Wright, supporting
the report of the majority. Messrs.
Townes, G. W. Wright and Minor the
minority. The speeches of the extrem-
ists and precipitators were bitter, par-
tizan and intiamitory iu their character;
they charged that the banner of the
stars and stripes had been brought in
for political effect. The supporters of
the resolutions opposing precipitate
action, spoke with c. lmness, appealed
to reason, and replied that the blue
ent that house waB too much crow<
for sueli a djvision. Then it was
cd that the crowd go out of doors and
form upon each side of tÜe house.—
Those who opposed the resolutions ask-
ing a called session of the Legislature,
gathered up ther stars aud stripes and
moved out of doors, whilst thote of tbt
other side gathered up the bine-banners
which the.yonng ladies had left when
they retired from tbe meeting, and start-
ed as if they intended to go out of doors,
and a few did go out, but then it was
moved among themselves that they
return. The Chairman in the meantime
had kept his position. Some one then
moved that the resolutions of the min-
ority committee be rejected. This mo-
tion was carried of course, unanimous-
ly. Instantly it was moved that the
majority report be adopted—this was
done too, unanimously—then an ad-
journment was moved and carried unani-
mously. «This all did not occupy a
minute, and was done whilst those out-
side were entirely ignorant of what was
transpiring, and whilst they supposed a
count was going on. When informed
of what had been done they returned
to the church, now deserted by those
who were fot the majority resolutions,
appointed a new Chairman and adopted
the resolutions reported by the minority
committc unanimously. Took down
tho names of those present, 250; gave
three cheers for Minor, formed a pro-
cession and marched through town.—
The number of the people in favor of
the report of the minority, and against
that of the majority, was three to one.
A large number soon became disgust*
ed with the proceedings of the meeting
and left without taking any part. La-
mar|connty wants no called session of
the Legislature ; three-fonrtha of the
voters of that county are for the Union,
aud determined not to be led by the
nose by the disunionists and demogog-
ucs. This was the action of the people
against the political intriguers, with-
out organization or concert of action.
One thing struck me as a looker on, as
one who had no right to participate iu ^
the proceedings, as somewhat
