GALVESTON, TUESDAY, JAN. 1, 1856.
(CT THE STATE CONVENTION OF THE
AMERICAN PARTY WILL ASSEMBLE AT
AUSTIN ON THE TIIIRP MONDAY OF
JANUARY NEXT.
An Acknowlebgem.nnt.—We had occasion to
complain of the irregularity of our paper sent to
Liberty, and could not accuuiit for its noil-recep-
tion at. that office; and as our Postmaster here as-
sured us that the Lynchburg package was sent,
nnd as we had heard of the reception of a part
of the same mail by our Cedar Bayou subscribers,
wc found fault with the postoftice at Lynchburg.
We now take it uli back, as we learn from the
Postmaster at Swartwont, that the missing pack-
age came to his office plainly directed " Swart-
wont." We make ibis statement as an act of jus-
tice to the office blamed. The fault was in uur
office, by a mistake of direction, and the Post-
masters every where did their duty, for which we
thank them. We will try to do better, and here-
after to avoid mistakes, or giving a rebuke where
it, does not belong.
America* Convention.—The members of the
American party throughout the S ate should bear
it in mind that a Convontion will assemble at
Austin on the third Monday of tho present
ontli. " Business of importance will be brought
"are Ihe Convention, and delegates to the Na-
iiiil Convention will be appointed.) We hope
i friends of tho Constitution and Union, luein-
rs of the American parly, in every portion of
e State, will have their representatives in Aus-
ai on tho third Monday of January inst.

Such is the appeal made by a Catholic paper at

It |s fllreoted against the American party, aud
the determination of Americans to rule their
country, to extend the term of naturalization and
to put nouu in office who aro not native born
citizens.
Americans do not desire to deprive any citiien,
already so, of any vested right whatever; they

ID" The Blakclcy's gave one of their concerts
last night at Morian Hall. We regret that press-
ing engagements in our office prevented our at-
tendance, and that wo cannot speak our praise
from personal knowledge. The musical talent of
this company, and their exquisite performances,
are the themes of praise in our Louisville and
New Orleans exchanges of the last dates. The
Louisville Journal and New Orleans Picayune
both represent them to be pre-eminent as musi-
cians. Wc hope that Galveston will give them
the reception and extend to tliein the compliment
which the opinion of the journals named leads
us to believe.thcy fully deserve.
Fon the Ladies—Leap-yeah .—To day begins a
new "Leap-year" during which by common emi-
nent, young ladies may propose, llow many will
avail themselves to day of this rare opportunity,
mid the fecilities offered by the gallants who are
making their round of calls. Wo take it upon
.ourselves, upon the advent of this day to offer
a word or two of advice to the gil ls. It has been
demonstrated that a girl at twelve years of age
has lost one-half of her chances for marriage ; at
.twenty-three, three-fourths of her opportunities
■arc gone; nnd at twenty-six, seven eights of them
are irretrievably lost. This is leap-year; look
at these facts," and make use of tho opportunity
to indicate your preference nnd young men lake
this nrticle along with you to remind the girls, in
a modest way of, their privilege—should they un-
fortunately forget it!
O* Peterson, for January, has been received,
and has received its usual warm welcome from
the ladies at "our house." The engravings for
this magazine are fine, Ihe plates the lates styles,
and the original stories interesting and beneficial

1T Godey's Ladies Book, for January, is upon
our table much improved in appcarnncc, and
containing the latest fashion plates, and patterns,
with directions for cutting and fitting. It is an
elegant monthly, and deserves a place in every
ladies library. Address Louis Godey, New York.
¡D* The Civilian has at last admitted that the
editor of the San Antonio Zeituug is a " genuine
Frccsoilcr." The effort of the "Texan," quoted
by the Civilian to show that Dr. Douai (theeditor)

men, nnd intends to "emigrate to Mexico" to
rmakc a " Free State " will go forwhatit is worth,
which under all circumstances is—nothing.
future, and gloom destroy the present possession
of happiness ? These arc a few of the many re
llcctions which we imagine all muy feel aud make
in this new era of time upon themselves and
their individual affairs. Wc do not know what
response will be made, but.our renders will per-
mit us, while we tender to them the usual greet-
ings, to wish them a " happy new year " in eve-
ry particular ; if the power were ours, wc should
exercise it, with a heart full of sincere joy by
placing happiness, complete, unalloyed and per
inauent upon the altar of each home, and a spirt
it of love, burning brightly uputi the altar of each
heart, in each happy home.
What shall we say of our city ? During the
past year w'e had reason in many things, to re-
joice—we have been entirely exempt from the
dreadful epidemic which caused us to mourn the
loss of friends, and our city to feel the effects of
a scourge for two successive years ; uninterrupt-
ed health lias been the portion of a large majori-
ty of our citizens. Galveston has continued to
improve, slowly it is true, but therefore more
surely, in a business way—we have heard of no
failures among our business men of importance,
and none snve those arising from untoward and
fortuitous circumstances, not legitimately con-
nected with the business ; a large number of im-
provements have been completed aud others are
in the course of completion, both in the businuss
:ind private portions of the city: tho value of
property lias materially advanced, and the friends
of Galveston look forward with encouraged hope
to the fulfilment of her foretold destiny, as the
" Commercial Emporium" of Texas; there is
untiling to dishearten, but every reason to be sat-
isfied with her prospects.
What shall we say of our State 1 The eyes of
the world are now upon us—the position ot Tex-
as is peculiarly attractive, and demands also the
most watchful and vigilant guardianship of her
interests—with a soil unsurpassed for futility, a
domain unexampled in dimensions, a scenery
lovely aud inviting, a climate unexceptionable, a
people chivalric and enterprizing, and with an
emigration of wealthy Southern planters pouring
into it, Texas hi Ids an enviable posit juu among
her sister States ; her agricultural, as well as com
inercial interests arc advancing and the incubus
of debt is but slightlv felt by these classes—her
harvests have been plenteous, her barns, sugar
aud cotton houses arc full, and all that she needs
is a tray to convey her products to market. In
tcrnal improvements is the great question upon
which the people are fully aroused and upon
which legislation must either operate beneficially
or the reverse. We have said that the oyes nf the
world were upon us ; it is so in view of this sub-
ject, and another most intimately connected with
the future prosperity and fair name of our State,
the payment tf our State debt; let Texas relieve
herself from the odious stigma of repudiation,
and afford to her citizens the means of building
roads, and all will be well. May the next New
Year bring to us the glad tidings that both have

pers to be a tax upon us','and criminals to be a nients recently made public in a letter addressed
- should by Joshua R. Giddings, tho Abolition lender in
the House of Representative!, to the editors of
the Ashtabula (O.) Sentinel In that epistle it
states distinctly that at tlio' nnti-slnvery caucus
held on the Saturday preceding the first 'meeting
of Congress, t-o following resolution was unaui-
inously adopted :
Resolved, That we will support no man for
Speaker who is not pledged to carry out the Par-
liamentary law, by giving to each proposed men-
sure ordered by "the House to be committed, a
majority of such special committee ; and to organ-
ise the standing committees of the House by placing
on each a majority of the friends if freedom who are
favorable to making reports of all jietitions commuted
to the\n.
As every member who attended that, caucus,
and sustained the resolution, is pledged to cai-ry
it out, it. follows clearly tint the anti-slavery men
will support no one for Speaker who will not. ar-
range the committees,!/} such a manner ns to favor
Abolition in every T>pe aud form. Thus, fpr
example, tho Committee on Wavs and M'iaus
t b
Nicaragua.
The latest accounts from Nicaragua represent
this country ns being in a permanently settled
state. The Americans have quiet possession of
the country, nnd emigrants are flocking into it.
1/ we understand the previous reports this pos-
session is by the consent of the natives, nnd Gen.
Walker and his men are popular with nil classes
if them ; in view of this quiet occupation of the
country aud when the people are resorting thith-
er with high hopes of bettering their condition
in life, and are taking wit It them their imple-
ments of husbandry with their "household gods,"
jttd not implements of war, the proclamation of
Mr. Pierce seems not only ill-timed, but an out-
rage. We oppose Filibusteriam, and the taking
the reins of fiovernuient out of the proper hands,
as much as any, but can find nothing in tho his-
tory of the occupation of Niciiragnn to warrant
Mr. Pierce in forbidding emigrants to go there—*
were it ngainst the wishes of the people, and in
fact a filibustering movement, his course would
be proper, but the contrary seems to be the case,
and the Administration has taken steps to hin-
der the progress of a lovely country and to check
the peaceful emigration of our citizens striving
to advance their individual prosperity.
mured ot except for demagogues who influence,
aud lending men nnd journals among them who
have a deep design, and nro seeking after tho
reigns of government and church.
They «re nppealed to as above, and told that
they are proscribed; and for what? that they may
be uuitcd to vote down Americanism, and nctu-
nlly to "proscribe" Americans in their own
country, and to take from them the offices aud
the power of governing; what do Americans
think of this bold appeal to the Irish of the
country ? If as we have been told there is no
danger from foreigners, would such statements
have utterance? Is not the expression of them
evidence of n design, and a confidence in the
strength of the party appealed to ? We think so.
America is termed an •* ungrateful nation;"
the family who have received into their circle the
oppressed, who have taken them by the hand as
friends, whp have clothed, fed and given them
employment and wealth, is denounced as un-
grateful, because forsooth, the owners and heads
of the house, do not vacate their scats and trans-
fer their power to Ihe strangers at their bourd !
because they would stijl rule their )ionies and
domestic affairs, while extending their bounty to
these visitors And sojourners from foreign lands
Who do men call " ungrateful " in such cases ?
1'he country which invites the foreigner to till
its soil, to feed at its bounteous boards, to reap its
abundant harvests, and lo enjoy every right guar-
anteed by the laws and constitution, but yet,
claims the right to govern ; or tho invited guests,
who becoming intoxicated by tlje good things of
the fenst, or incited by the bad advice of evil
minded demagogues, uttempt to usurp the rights
of the nutiver. and turn their heels upon him I
".Ungrateful nation!" To call America so, is
foreign insolence of the highest order, and in-
gratitude of the blackest dye.
But not only does the " Irish celt " call us un-
grateful, but appealing further to Irish Catholics,
says:
" Take heed then, while you may, fellow Irish-
men and brother Catholics, nnd* work, work.
| You who cannot move, assist those who can ; you
\vho cannot call your lives your own, form Town
ship Clubs aud enter heart and soul into ihe pro-
ject of this paper—Colonization..'
Here it is the religion of tho ; Cathojic is ap-
pealed to and lie is called upon to work—for
whnt ? Reflect upon it reader—for what, arc the
Irish mid Roman Catholics called upon to work ?,
Why "to make Rome the District of Columbia for
all Christendom" in the language of a Northern
Catholip paper 1 To overthrow protestantism in
America and to establish the power of Italcan
and Romish priests, bishops, cardinals and Pope
in America; to subdue, and proscribe Americans'
and Anieticau Catholics, who are styled "pur-
veyors of satnn," upon their own soil, and enjoy-
ing freedom of conscience ; and how is this to.be
affected? The "Celt" tells us, by colonisation,
by forming Irish and Catholic Townships, clubs
nnd by uniting and voting together, to elect men
and carry measures ; by seuding out emigration
for the rural districts, to strengtrcn the old in
their religion, and to train the .young li u> to vete,
aud, who to serve. They are to be taught to vote
for the man who favors foreigners and the Catho
lie religion, who is sound, not upon the slavery
or auy other political question, but upof the
sacraments and the power of the Pope.
Americans, have you not cause to be vigilant,
•lid to " work " for the safety of your institu-
tions, to keep church and state asunder, nnd to
govern your country in tho simplicity and purity
of its constitutional nnd Republican spirit.
J3" The manufacture of votes out of the raw
material is not confined to Galveston, Texas, or
any single State of the Union. Wherever there
are anti-Amcricans in power, and foreigners to
be worked up, there is a factory with all the tools
aud implements required to make good voters
just preceding elections. During th"? week be-
fore the Into election in New Jersy, in Morris
county, 1G1 naturalization papers were taken
from tho Clerk's office. In Mercer county, 100
good Democratic voters were turned out two days
before the election. The anti-American party
which was successful in that county, is in a nii.-
norily of 850 of native voters. Foreigners by
this system arc made our rulers.
XT Why is it, that when the American party
was defeated in Tennessee, and other Southern
States, the Abolition journals of tho North rejoiced
over this result, and cried out that " it was ablow
struck for freedom ?" Will some of our Southern

of the unrivalled scene, and ambitious to pluck

her own daring, she leaned over the verge ,nnd
caught a glimpse of the surging waters far down

and she leaned in a delirium of intense desire and
anticipation over the brink. Her arm was out

Committee on Territories to report a bill to es-
tablish the Wilmot-Provino over them—iu short,,
every committee being composed of a majority of
anti-slavery mini, will, in all possible eases, take
a Northern view, and report agaiust the South.
First, Mr. Campbell, nnd next, Mr. Bnnks, gave
the required pledges, and each in his turn lia:
been manfully adhered toby tho Abolitionists.
It can no longer be a subject of wonder that
national men of all parties—even from the North
—men who yet profess some little attachment, to
the Union, and some slight respect for tlin rights
of every section, and a reasonable abhorrence of
geographical parties nnd sectional legislation—
should refuse to afilíate with so infamous a coali-
tion. No man can possibly-vote for Banks unless
he endorses iu its length and breadth i lid C-iddings
resolutions, and is prepared to nbandon all his
political predilections, to sacrifice his conserva-
tive views, ami to unite with Greeley, Weed nnd
the horde of clamorous fanatics in an earnest at-
tempt to drive the South out of the Union. There
happens to be in Congress a respectable number
of auti-Admiiiistrution representatives) from the
North who can-neithcr be coerced nor cgjofcd in-
to this delectable scheme. These members will
stand out to the bitter end in opposition to Banks,
or any other nominee under the Giddings plat-
form. They will scatter their votes atevc"ry trial,
preferring that the House should conl inyie unor-
ganized nil doomsday, rather than help to electa
presiding officer of the black republican stripe.
Tlie Southern members will, as a matter of course,
pursue a similar policy. Not one of tliesp has yet
voted for Banks, nor will he ever obtr.in the sup
port of auy representative of a shive-holdiug
State.
If the Democrats—we mean the Administra-
tion Democrats—who have been all n.lqng vol.iug
for Richardson, really desire to defeat tlje election
of a Fressoilcr, lot them ttnder the olive brunch
to the national men of the opoosi lion. Their
number is sufficient, when united wil ,h the Demo-
crats, to beat Abolition nnd its nominee. Is not
such a triumph worth a compromiso ? Must the
country, the peace and tranquillity of the Union
be endangered by the exacting belli ists of a mis-
erable partizun feeling ? We say, led the Demo-
crats reassemble in caucus, rescind tjieir sense-
less and stolid assault ou the Know Nothings,
aud select a new man, aud we will venture the
assertion that in n single sitting they will be en-
abled, by the assistance of the national represen-
tatives, to achieve a signal victory over the band-
ed cohorts of Abolition. Reineinbor that the real
issue made by Giddings and his crew is a purely
sectional one, ant) tlint to overthrow nnd confound
these plotters of treason should be. a solemn duty
with every limn whose heart chcrUhcs a spark of
national feeling.—AT. O. B#>
Affairs in Kansas
The St. Louis Republican, of Wednesday Inst,
has the following late nnd intcri isting news from
Kan sus;
The aneutc in Kansas is at.'in end—tho rebels
of Lawrence have thought bul te r of it, and have
concluded to give up tl t persons, for whom Sher-
iff Jones had writs. The law, rind the Territori-
al law, lias therefore triumphed, and .without
bloodshed. Wc annex a duspa ;ch received from
Boonville last evening :
The Missouri volunteers have disbanded and
returned home in disgust, been use Gov. Shannon
would not allow them to bum the'town of Law-
rence. Thy Abolitionists surrendered the indi-
viduals obnoxious to the law, and Gov. Shannon
then demanded that tlioy surrender their arms,
but this they refused to do,'a<id there the matter
rests."
The reporter has probably given too strong a
coloring to the conduct of " the Missourians."—
Whether this be so or not, vv ro glad that the
Governor prevented nny injury to property in
Lawrence, from Missourians;or any body else.—
The grout point to be gained was, the. successful
execution of the laws of Kansas upon the per-
sons who had set those lavs nnd the Government
at defiance. The result, das established
under the w4er* of the Governor to enfarde ota,,
dicing to the laws lmvu little reliance in their
promises, and returned to their residence* dis-
satisfied with the result. But at they would not
be part and parcel of a mob to lujuro and destroy,
if ¿90 Governor was satisfied; they eould ask no
lui ny.
It is now pretty certain that tho Abolitionists
at Lawrence were determined, to resist, as their
re ttoubts and entrenchments fully prove, aud
e\ itrjr man was armed with rifles * forwarded to
t) ieiu,but uow claimed to be private property, and
if so, could not, as the Governor desired, be de-
li tferejl up.
I hare heard, lately, that for these rifles eaeh
1 nail gave his receipt, nnd wns to return them to
1 he armory iu this place, after the troubles liad
• ¡eased. Had this been noised abroad before, it is
i) y impression that the compromise would uot
'nave beeu effected so early as it was. We feel
gratified that no blood was shed. It is, however,
reported that, auo or two ulen were killed by I he
picket guard. Of .this wo shall hear uiore" cer-
tainly hereafter.

Pauper Immigrants—The Wurtemberg
Manifesto.
It Appears that tho petty kingdom' of Wurtem
berg lius been i 11 the habit, for somu years past,
of shipping to this country its pauper and infirm
And criminal population, to save tinS expense of
maintaining them at, home. As a measure ul'
economy, this was, doubtless, regarded the most
judicious thing that could possibly be done, es-
pecially as the finances of that kingdom are not
111 tho most flourishing condition, inasmuch as
the annual expenditure exceeds' tho annual rove
nue one million of florins, while the public debt
is some fifty-four millions of florins'. This not
being n very delectable state of affairs for a king-
dom about half the size of the Slate of Maryland,
nnd with four times its population, we are dis-

of their poor from tlmir own shoulders to ours,

Fall of Kara not Coufllrmed
upon the sngacious pica that tliev were unublu to
maintain thorn, while we, at least, were fully
competent to do so, provided we thought proper
to ávsuiiie Ihut philanthropic otllce, In some in-
stances, it appenrs that the Coiiimisnioiiers of
Emigration in New York thought that the yoke
imposed upou us pressed u little too heavily,
and thereupon ventured to return eertain of the
liiost indifferent .specimens of Wurtemberg hu-
manity back to their own country.
Connoisseurs are unanimously of opinion tlint
wine is grently iinprlved by a sea voyage; but
the government ol Wurteuiburg does not think
Ihat n similar improvement extends to pnuper
immigrants, and especially to those samples of
theiif which the Commissioners of Emigration
thought proper lo transmit back again " tu the
original package" to their lintive soil. All
Wurtemberg, from the Schwnrtxwuld to Ihe Sun-
biau Alps, is indignant at this act of imperti-
nence. The government exclaims itgninst it ns
beyond sufferance. It liad paid the passage of
these lazar* to America for tue purpose of getting
rid of them, aud while it is congratulating itself
on the " artful dodge," lo and behold they re-ap-
pear, as tattered lind torn as when they went
away. Paternal Wurtemberg lashes itself into
a passion, and straightway launches against the
American authorities the following manifesto :
Whebeas, It has frequently occurred that Ger
man emigrants to America, nnd among tliem
Ilativo) of Wurtttmberg, wiwdemlNKl t« return
home on accouut of sickness or incapacity to
labor, have beeu forwarded tu tlijs country by
the German Emigration Society j arid
Wnr.iieas, It is desirable that those who have
once emigrated to America, and especially those
who havu been transported thither at the ex.
{leusc of the Stale or communes, uud are una.
)lc, whether or not it be from any fault of their
own, lo earn their subsistence, should uot re-
turn here to be a burden {¡I the Stale or com-
mune, (which in that case \eill hate defrayed the
expenses of their journey ii} vain ; nnd
WiitniiAH, The American authorities arc scarcely
authorized to send buck those, who havi< g
once been to the country, cannot enru their sub
sistence in America; nnd
Wukiikaü, It is much less the business of the
German Emigration Society of New York to
Ítromoto the return of such individuals; there-
o
Resolved, That necessary steps are to bp taken
to prevent tliejr transportation bnck to this coun-
try.
While we cannot but admire the cool audacity
with which thi WurU'inberg government refers to
the fact of having defrayed the expenses of its
paupers to this country, we nro disposed to ra
gard its rebuke of the American nuthorities, for
■ending them bttok, as beyond all comparison
the fullest specimen of Teutonic impudence we
over remember to have mot with. The refusal to
allow, i n future, these poor miserable waifs to
return to their native land is an act of inhuman-
ity even greater than the qriginnl way of exil-
ing them from it; nnd whether the old sarcasm
bo true or false, which says that " corporal ions
have no souls," it certainly must be concedí^
that. Governments like tl|,-ise of Wurtemberg nre
wanting iu the common attributes of humanity.

orator, was said, to have had eloquence nativa

edifice of his fume by slow, persevering, laborous
