"' Tim llomioxs. We hear TeryJlittlo said
abont the Mormons of late. The truth is their
impostures appear to have become transpa-
rent to their own deluded followers and their
number is fast diminishing. In 1B5G they num-
bered SS.000 and two years later only S0.000.
We trust a. Christian population will soon take
their place in Utah and that Jlormonism will
only be remembered as an evidence of the al-
most incredible power a religious mania has
in overcoming human reason. When people
of intelligence and education surrounded by
all the lights of Christianity and the highest
civilization can bo induced to embrace sucn
extraordinary and absurd delusions is it to be
wondered that so many nations of tho earth
who havo never had those advantages are still
groping in the darkness of pagan idolatry

Later rtoii TDK Rio 'Ghaxde. We learn
from Mr. Wm. H. Jones who has just arrived
from Aransas that n letter from Mr. Graham
sliertHTof Nueces county now on tho Rio
Sfandehad been received to tho effect that
C6rtlnas"had re-crossed the river (to this side)
about SO miles above Brownsville with SOO
men thus placing himself between tho U. S.
troops and Brownsville and where there is not
at present any force to oppose him. When
this letter was received at Corpus Christ Capt.
Britton immediately left for the Rio Grande.
It Is rumored that Capt. Britton had received
the commission of Colonel with authority to
tako command of tho Texas Rangers on the
Rio Grande.

count of a mulo-cared rabbit hunt which came

Z3? The "ew Orleans Crescent has come to
the conclusion that England is now more am-
i bitions to extend her commerce than her do-
" j .millions and that she greatly prefers that the
-tFnltcd States should take possession of Mexico
than to encumber herself with such posses-
sion. For tho Statesmen of that country
know perfectly well that the commerce of
.ii. i 1 1 .mm ' Mexicowhich is now ncarljfaworthless would
borftaEnrnmenSe valuelif the countrr were
nmlcrjIjsCs 0f our ?--"""P"' : "" his-
vasl increaseTTJTTrcr-commerce would inure
chiefly to tws benefit of Eneland. But Trie-
Crescent gives also other reasons why England
desires the United States to take possession of
Mexico.
English cltlsent hare very large claims upon Mex
ico which there Is every prospect they will never
have rAld unless some sach change is made. If
the United Stales seises Mexican territory the
would have of coarse to acqnlt the hypothecations
upon that territory; and thos British creditors
would get their money. Hence the English hold-
erao! Mexican bends have been damanms tr some
time that the Federal Union should extend her Ju
risdiction over her sister Bepnblie; and probably
' their representations hare gone far towards changing
the sentiments of the English people and press on
the subject. And beside that there is this reason
more. If the United States doesjnot Interfere speed-
ily In Mexican affairs there Is a certainty that either
France or England herself mast. England has no
taste for the work just at present she dots not rfant
Mexico and besides has her hands otherwise fall.
"With France It may be different. Napoleon has the
means to accomplish it and the acquisition of that
' Hen colony would oonouess ne popular wim iu
people. But England would a thousand times ratter
we would get her than Erance; and .therefore her
statesmen are urging us to take her. Tve. think a
few years more will thrust Mexico Into onr embraces
whether we desire it or not. Her aceolsltlpn ana
after management will be proline sources of difficulty
and danger without doubt. But destiny wills that
we shall "assume the responsibility and our own re-
luctance cannot defeat the decree of fate.
We agree with the Crescent that Mexico is
-very likely to come under the control of this
Union orpossibly may be annexed to it with-
in a few years but we are not so much of a
fatalist as to believe that such an erept is among
the decrees of an overruling Providence; and
we will further add ihat in our opinion
tbo'cxtension of this Union or of its pol-
itical power over that Tast region with
its millions of scmi-civilixed and mongrel in-
habitants would be a most hazardous experi-
ment and such an experiment as no wise and
prudent statesmanship will ever venture upon.
It appears to us that our Government already
contains within its limits discordant elements
enough for its own peace and fafety without
incorporating 8 or 10 millions of people the
greater part of whom are of Indian or negro
tlood and utterly incapable of appreciating
jnd mucb ip?s of exercising th rights and
duties of freemen.
We would be glad to see that country Amer
icanized ; but that ahould be done by the very
same process by which American principles
nave heretofore been extended and arc now ex-
tending over this continent namely by tho na-
tive enterprise the voluntary efforts and char-
acteristic energy of Amercan citizens without
cither aid or obstruction from our Government
This extension of American principles should
i ways be in advance of the extension of our
Government as In fact it always has been here-
tofore ; and it is mainly for this reason lhat our
past a'cauisilions of territorv and normlalinn
I5 "jiare been attended with very htle if any dan-
Kca?. '"convenience jjqt II we attempt to re-
verse! Ibis order and extend our Government

bp understood shall we not thereby introduce
elements dangerous to our liberties ? We can-
not believe that any patriot can reflect upon
the momentous consequences that may follow
'from such a hazardous experiment without
feeling a conviction that though we may ac-
quire unoccupied territory with perfect safety
yet that the absorbing of a nation of eight mil-
lions of inhabitants is a very different thing
especially inhabitants who have demonstrated
their incapacity for self government by thirty
jears of anarchy and a succession of almost
'annual revplutions. In view of the dangerous
experiment' of mtroducine such an elemehtWo
litis Union or assuming the responsibility of
governing such a people we consider the obli-
gation which such rsaumption will place us
jinder to pay the British bond-boders and all
giber debts of that cquntry though of no small
magnitude as of comparatively minfir importance.

The House of Uepresenlativeshaving under
consideration n proposition to donate 1C0 acres
to actual settlers; and two mneadments ono
having for its object theprcvention of abSiitfim
incendiaries from receiving the benefit of the
BUI and the other conferring it in actual citi
zens
Mb. IIctbird said :
In the aspect In which It Is now presented this is a
grave question for the consideration of the House-
Mr the amendment offered to this CHI by the gentle-
man from Cherokee (Mr. Foscuel has been treated
by honoable members as though Its original provis-
ions applied entirely to dtlstns of Texas. If this
amendment did (or was intended) to apply (which b
certainly not the design of the mover) to actual citi-
zens of this State now residing within your boraers
then It would Indeed be a meaningless thing and
calculated by questioning their patriotism to arouse
the Indignation or a brave and gallant people. But
I do no so regard the effect of the proposition. And
I shall not stop here to ask what was the Intention of
my friend In offering this amendment; nor whether
under the cloak of paiUamentary tactlet"Ee seeks to
stab the Bill. I sit in judgment on the motives or no
man and that which I concede to others I ask for
myself.
Vet 81r when this amendment was Intro dacedcon-
celfingthallt was gennaln to the question before
the House and that it might be proancuve 01 goou
In connection with this proposed Preemption Act
certalnlr of no harm. I voted for the adoption as
well at for the amendment offered by my friend from
Travis (Judge Townes). Bull must not be charged
on that account with being hostile to thli BUI; which
In my opinion when properly gu irded and with these
restrictions Is a great and patriotic measure for the
development of the State. Bat It will be remem-
bered by the House that I gave my views on this
subject some dayt ago and my position as a friend
of the original Bill Is known to the country and re-
mains unchanged.
There are many upon this floor who live upon the
border gallant men who hTe seen hard service
there; who vote with me Etr for this amendment
No one questions the true Southern feeling of the
hardy settlers on our frontiers. It is not because
even so much as a whisper of suspicion has reached
our ears against them that I support this amendment
but it Is because the provisions of the original Bill
are co-extensive with the almost boundless limits of
the Union. It is therein the generoas objects con-
templated by this Preemption policy might be abused
by designing men not "native and to the manor
born;" but who while seizing our proffered bounty
with one hand would perchance apply the torch of
the Incendiary to our hemes with other. Tf e are not
wanting Sir in examples of such perfidy. This
amendment cannot Interfere with oar own citizens or
that class of men north of the border line of slavery
who have always through sunshine and storm re-
mained true to the Constitution and the Union. All
laws are enacted to protect the good man against
the bad. It is in this snlrit that I have supported
this proposition; not that for ono moment I supposed
we were in Immediate dangers but because the tar-1
bulent and evil times upon which we have fallen sol-
emnly forewarn us that a dsy may come when
treachery and treason will attempt to stalk In our
midst. It is against such an event (which God grant
may nevet come) that I woild even now throw
round our broad unsettled domain every barrier
and every safeguarg for the protection and mainten-
ance of those institutions which we desire to perpet-
uate there as we have Inherited them from our fath-
ers. I am answered here that such a requisition
would not prevent the abolition incendiary from re-
moving to the public lands and availing himself of
the rich bounty of the State that perjury to the fa-
natic Is a "thing of straw." This may be true; so
the assassin may in the night-time take your life and
the hand or him stained with blood may go unfetter-
ed and unknown. Tet murder is for all that a crime.
The law may be evaded; yet the law may still be
right. I would prefer that the BUI confined the ben-
efits of this Preemption to citizens of Texas alone
and it was for this reason I voted ror such a proviso
when offered by the able member from Brazoria (Mr.
Mocjon). Then this heated discussion would hare
never taken place; but I discuss this question Sir as
1 find It presented to the llousc. and as such. I shall
meet it concealing no opinion and shirking no responsibility-
Then I reiterate that even granting lhat such an
amendment might In tome instances be inoperative.
It wonld at least exert a moral force by indicating in
a solemn enactment that Texas Is conscious of her
rights and will exert all her power whether success-
ful or not in forewarning the fanaticism of the North
that we will offer no Inducement to nor will permit
any man or tet of men by word or deed to interfere
with the Institution of domestle slavery. At least
Sir either by adopting this amendment or by confi-
ning tho benefits of the BUI to actual cltlzecs I
would urevent as far as possible the colonization of
our one hundred million acres of public domain
(now stretching fire hundred miles to the Westward)
by that class of men who are unfriendly to the do-
mestic Institutions of our State. Sir to be " fore-
warned Is to be forearmed" and in these days espe-
cially the maxim Is full of fearful Import. And right
here. I desire to slate from my place that It is not
with any desire to agitate this vexed question or to
sow me seeds 01 Ulseora among our own people mav
I advocate the passage ol this Bill During my life
I have been opposed 10 agitation for the mere take
or agitation. I have rather favored the policy of
pouring oil upon the troubled waters in those great
and exciting crises of the past history of the coun-
try when danger threatened the existence of the
Union. I have been one of that number Sir wno
hare thought In times past whether wisely or not the
sequel will prove that In the lifetime of nations as
with Individuals there may be occasions when mutu-
al compromises and concessions are right and proper
for the better securing and preserving the peace and
stability of the common country. Such a sentiment
has the merit of being founded In patriotism. If not
in wisdom.
But Sir when It Is proposed In the present ease
that a sovereign State shall act upon a subject over
which the has sole and complete Jurisdiction the
guarding her immense domain against the andal
hordes of fanalic!smll should not be thrown into the
teeth of gentlemen that because they advocate such
a policy It Is done for the purpose of stirring up
strife In the sisterhood of States. I would not for the
sake of retaliating against the wrongs we have suf-
fered add fuel to that flame of discord which has
already Invaded the temple of oar liberties. I scorn
Sir that accursed feeling which prompts some men
to raise the storm that in the midst or ruin and
desolation they msy leap to eminence and power.
Such cold calculating aabst on may sometimes sweep
its way to the high places of the land ; but the "day
of reckoning" comes at last when like Lucifer they
fall to rise no more.
But Sir when danger does stare us In the face
when the noise of commotion Is heard when " omi-
nous signs" are in the heavens ; when the rational
mind Is already lasbed Into a tempest skill we be
taunted as "croakers of evU" while darknes Is even
now gathering around us? Shall we be frightened
out cf our wits like old women with spectres of
ghosts And blood and the horrors cf the final catas-
trophe from a calm and dispassionate stirrer of the
pretest difficulties aoddangers.Vich. snrwana-t&.

TtaeTiassed on. The great crisis of 1S32 con 1 ulsed
the country and though the slavery question was
not then directly in Issue jet without stopping to
discuss those stirring events It will not be denied
that sectional feeling under a different form from
that which Is nowipresented then threatemI the
existence of the Union. -Again the spirit ot con.
cession prevailed ; the storm abated and a long
career cr prosperity was promised thecountr.
But still the elements of discord gathered sir ngth
with the lapse of years. -Agaln and again wl Ii In-
'creased bitterness did this crassde against the insti-
tutions of the South manifest Itself In the counnls of
the nation In the licentious press and among the
great masses of the North until It at last asa met!
a form and a concentration of power which became
formidable and fearful Jo the peace of the Gcrcrn-
nicnt. A great Sectional Antl-SlavcryParty "eek-
Ing Ihe control of affairs arrayed Itself In d-adly
hostility to the old IVhig and Democratic parties
which finally destroyed the one and Imperiled the
other. The Church of Ood within whoso holy pre-
cincts the rancor of party should never enter was
Invaded by this monster ana iwo 01 uic great reu-
gious denominations of the country were dirldt d up-
on the Issue. A Church North and a Church Fouih
was the consequence and the bonds of Chrl tian
Brotherhood were broken and desecrated upon the
altar of an accursed fanaticism.
Political conventions were formed; candidates
for the Presidency nominated ; platforms were 1 iade
embodying principles hostile to the Constitution and
the rights of the South; and the flat went forth r ever
since revoked that "no more Slave States shiuld
ever be admitted Into this Union."
Hence when an occasion was presented for the
political doctrines In 1550 the exlsteoce of the I' don

now raises his hinds with holy horror at Ihi bare
mention of an attempt by this Legislature to guard
the long'llne of our fronderand our vast domain
from the Incursion of just sach men as he then de-
nounced at his own home. He says that they are
able to protect themselves. The troth Is.we do desire to
discriminate between oar own citizens and those
who by nativity and education are unfriendly to
onr domestic Institutions. In other words sir I am
opposed to offering a bribe to the settlement of our
public lands by any other than our own citizens ;
hence I advocate the amendment but not with the
design that It shall most remotely even affect the
citizens of Texas. Gentlemen foreet that onr tpr.
ritory extends to within twenty-fire miles of Kansas
and that for distance of five hundred miles bevond
the present settlements Is a country yet to be pop-
ulated constituting an empire within iiself. Mill It
be seriously contended that under a pre-emption
act without any restrictions open to ail the world-
there would be no possible dsDger arising to our
peace from the character of the hordes of the North
who would come down upon It Jiic "vultures upon
tbelrprry?" Bellgious sects aDJolttlcal associ-
ations might again with a fairer field and on a
broader theatre attempt to do that which they were
only prevented from doing in the gentleman's own
aectlon by the boldness and fearless determination
of the good and true men of the frontier and his
own constituency.
If therefore this bill Is not to he confined to
citizens of Texas alone but Is to extend to all who
may seek to avail themselves of Its provisions then
sir I am for causing those who come from beyocd
the border fine of slavery to take the obligation re-
quired by the gentleman from Travis (Judge
Townes) before they can enjoy the generous bounty
or this SUle. We have the right to say to whom
we shall give oar public lands and an equal right to
declare how we will give It; and I am for exercising
this sovereign prerogative to thefuliest extent.
I am asked what good will such a provision do f
I retaliate by asking gentlemen what possible harm
can result from Us operation r Bnt I am here met
with the old argument of my friend from Bed Blver
(Mr. Epperson that It Is daneeroni to aritatoth

since he Invites cs Into the field ot national politics

propose briefly to show to the House that Texas has
nothing to gain but much to lose by remaining an
Idle spectator of that fearful political drama which
Is at this hour being enacted before the eyes of an
imperiled country. Sir there are In the history of
all governments .alternate days of sunshine and of
gloom I know. It would nothave accorded with the
tradition of the "rise and fall of nations" were It
assumed that our own country were an exception to
this Inflexible rule. But when national disease be-
comes chronIeland refuses to yield its virulence or
relax Its told upon the vitals under the tempering
hand of compromise and forbearance then sir we
take It the body politic Is fast homing to decay and
death. What sir has been the prime aye the only
cause of those great political 'convulsions which
have marked the history of this country? It hat
been this selfsame slavery ouestlon. which eenll.

pending the- admission of Missouri Into the Union
arose the first dangerous excitement threatening the
existence of the ItepubKc At that early day.
Southern Statesmen had not assumed the high vantage-ground
in relation to slavery which has been
maintained triumphantly In later times. They re-
garded t then as only a political necessity. But
notwllhstandlsg.thls darkness gathered around the
papltol and a fearful excitement arose jn the coun-

be admitted Into the Union with a pro-slavery clause
In her Constitution. Well sir I shall not trouble'the
Ilouie by recapitulating tna stirring events of that
day familiar at they must be to every member.
What was the consequence? The consequence was
that to smother the fires of discord and to still the
storm the great and good Statesmen ot that better

were' to itrottkly knlttogether. It has been said on
tlce to the South; but because In common with Jiiou-j
sands of others I deemed them the only hppt for

Is a proposition I never admitted and about hlch
there la but little controversy at this day.
Vet we were forced as good men then thought
to adopt these peace measures or suffer this great
Union to go down In darkness and in blood.
Why the necessity for Ihese enactments why this
turbulent excitement "which convulsed the coontiyto
Its very centre ? The cause was the forces anll-si ive-
ry had gathered together demanding not as a shp-
puaut dui as a power in inc uuvctuwcui mess con
cessions 01 ngnu
They were passed placed upon the Statute Bo As
men breathed more freely and "pesos were
sung again." The waters were calm and the p .trl
cts from all sections from grateful hearts utured
Joyful greetings to one another.
But sir was not that ensuing peace but arespi'e
the calm which always precedes the storm? The
Mstory of tho past lea years of this country j.'vcj
us an answer as mournful as It Is true.
Ihe legislation of 1S54 was no concession to the
South. It was but the enunciation or a con-.Itu-tlonal
right as since declared by tbeSupreme Cuurt.
But when practically we come to apply those "ads"
known as the Kansas and Nebraska Acts when one
of these territories asks for admission with a pro-
slavery Constitution comnlyiog in all respects with
the Constitution of the United States she was rt (us-
ed and kicked from the doors of the Capitol. A thou
sand pretexts were made; but ''hoodwink it as we
will'' no one doubts theract that Kansas would r en
then hare been admitted as a Sovereign State 1 no
mention had been made of a "slavery clause "
What means this ? It means that the Black He.'ub-
llcan party controlled the Uouse of Kepresentatlv es
and nothing more.
Shall we forget too when gentlemen taunt us u ith
unnecessary fear that outside of Congress In the
Presidential Canvass of 1556 clouds gathered d rk-
ly In the political sky ? Will the House look at lhat
contest calmly ? IIow comes It that a purely sectlmal
party led on by a mere adt enturer swept the S rlh
with triumph In that struggle leaving scacre a " or-
poral's Guard" to stand by the Constitution and the
Union? It was but the accident of victory wl ich
'saved us then. That struggle was a test of the ' el-
Ing of Ihe masses of the Norllu Their ptatforn
while adroitly avoiding any Interference with alat try
where it existed nevertheless declared that "no n.nre
Slave States should be admitted into this Union. And
on this issue the battle was fought with what sucrcss
we know too well. We were saved then only by a
United South standing in solid phalanx by the old
standards ot Democracy.
But that day passed and the only national party
with any power succeeded In electing their President
and for the time Oelng put its foot upon the mon er.
Buthss the conflict ceased? Is there more pmce
more prosperity more hope nowthan heretofore
I answer no sir. borne 01 you speaa tana 1 hi nor
him who believes It) or the reaction of public senti-
ment and of the fidelity of the "people" of the
North ? IIow are we to judge of these people hu
by their representatives? Shall we be told mat
these "people" are our friends when their chi.-en
representatives presch treason at noonday in ihe
Capitol aid when their great leaders tell us'lliat
there Is an "Irrepressible conflict" between freedom
and elaery? Is that their friendship? Then Cod
save us from our friends. No sir this agitation lias
been permitted to go on unchecked and unnhlpp d
until at this very hour It is endangering the Li Ion
or these Slates. It is an Intensity of action a Ml
purpose and a power of numbers which Is low
clamorous for the reins of Government. And -lr
unless It recedes unless the "better days of the l!e-
publlc" come back to uj then sir 1 believe bt'ore
my God that the "end Urawcth nigh." I would Co un.
set no avert act; but I wonld not have my sect'on
close their eyes to the Impending danger. Why -lr
what Is now being enacted at your Federal Caplt 1 ?
For one month they have been balloting for Speal er
and no organization. Who are the Black Republi-
can party seeking to place In this the third Oder of
the Government? A man who has subscribed for ihe
circulation at the South of a book written by a
Southern traitor whose object Is to bring about "-
vile Insurrection" In our midst. A book whose pro-
gramme fori SCO Is in the following words.

The danger ceases not even If we elect a national
man as Speaker and the organization takes pUce
under the form of law. The Presidential crisis or
le-GO is the fearful contest and on that issue sit le.icta
all our hopes will be staked. "Ijameful and discord-
ant utterauces" are heard acflhe fanaticism of
the North must recede or else we go down. And
yet in the face of all this men cry out against ihe
only great national party of the Government cud
tell usihey will appeal to the "people" la the con-
test ot 1SC0.
At the North we hear of "Union meetings" as
nominations for the Presidency ; but basing it: lr
success upon opposition to the Democratic AdmlUs-
tratlon. Their co-woikers of the South endorse Buchanan
bnt Ignore the Charleston Convention or treal It
with "masterly" silence. Thus with three can H-
dates In the field and a divided South we are si Id
to Black Kepabitcan!sm;'and the very end you o
much deprecate will have been brought upon us by
jrour own acu.
We should at least open our eyes to the "signs of
(be times" and be ready for that great emergencr
wmen may come upon us. The time has arrmd
when the South Irrespective of old party affillalloiis
must stand together. By uniting our strength to
those true men of the North who always stood y
our Constitutional rights we may yet drive ba k
these vandal hordes and save the country. Bit
with division and distraction comes defeat and I1
the fearfal consequences.
I do not counsel retaliation. I wonld not because
the States of the North have nullified the Oonstli u-
tlon and the "Fugitive Slave Law" under "persoi. il
liberty -bill" enactments retort by Imprisoning
their people or Invading their homes.
No sir; so Iout as this great Union can be pve-
scrved under the Constitution It Is a blessing to i.s
and our children. I would do nought to endanger it.
I love the Union with the deathless loveorwomiiii.
I love It for all the hallowed memories of thepast I
love It In memory of the patriot statesmen wl.o
formed It and for every green chaplct and lau el
wreath which gathered on a thousand fields ol glo-
ry have been entwined around Its brow. I wolIJ
cliog to it In adversity In sunshine and In storm ns
dings the brave seaman to his sinking ship ; but
when "forbearance ceases to be a virtue" whn
nationalism Is gone-wben we are denied our rlgl 's
under the Constitution; then sir liberty has becon e
anarchy and the .Union of these States will te
among the things of the past.
God grant that this crises may never come In ur
day; that with the revolving years onr grealnns
shall grow greater and our institutions become
stronger andmore enduring.
Bur when we are counselled In this House "lint
there Is no danger" I can only regard the Idle woi d
as but the song oftheEyren. I hare never coun-
selled or entertained disunion sentiments. I bare
opposed eVery "outride Issue" whch I thought u -necessary
anfl which might endanger us. I n !1
still do It; but as I love my country and the hoiue
of aj birth I believe It to be our duty to acquit .t
ourselves with the dangers surrounding us that c
may be prepared either to resist their encroachmei t
or to stay their fatal course.
And I trust that in this crisis Texas the futtre
Empire State of the West will assume that bold si.d
firm position worthy or what she has been and Is to
be In the coming time.
Nsw-OuuEiits Jan. 9 1SC0.
Eos. Niws; Yesterday was the anniversary of
one of the greatest events In the history of this coun-
try since tho establishment ot our Government and
It was duly celebrated by a pretty general tarn-oat
of the civil authorities and military. The people
were duly reminded by the loud booming or cannon
the evening before that the ever-glorious eighth was
approaching. Tho commemoration of this day is
not as general a thing now as it once was. The tact
is the Orescent Clly Is fast becoming Vankeelzed.
Her people are becoming too great worshippers of
the almighty dollar. They are beginning to count
the cost or everything they do to see It self will be
gainer by the operation -The consequence Is. patri
otism Is at a heavy discount and political honesty
and morality are no longer quoted. If matters and
things continue as they have been going on for a few
years past the fourth of July will cease to be remem-
bered and commemorated as the anniversary or the
birth-day of a nation. In fact. Independence day
even now is not kept asa general thing at a na-
tional holiday to be remembered and respected by
every lover of freedom every one who basks' In tho
sun-light of civil and religious liberty.
Since my last no very interesting or exciting
event has transpired. It appears as though the great
mass of our population are on their good behavior.
There has been less crime less rowdyism and less
disorder during the last few weeks than at any time
during my residence In this city.
The holidays were celebrated and enjoyed very
extensively. The various placet of amusement balls
and masquerades are well attended. Booth the
younger has been playing an engagement at the St
Charles with pretty fair success though some of the
critics hare given him scissors. The Varieties has
made a decided hit with Dot a 'dramatic representa-
tion of Charles Dickens' famous Christmas story
"The Cricket upon the Hearth." It Is now la Its
third week and has neveryet been. played to an In-
dllfcrenlhouse. The Amphitheatre as usual attracts
all who love fun and eojoy the exhibition of nerve and
muscle. The tall woman Is to be seen there and so
js the dwarf. The big mule the six-legged Texas
ow the'mare with the snake in her eye the orer-
grown female-and fat baby hare not yet made their
appearance on any stage.
The races hare been an attractive feature In the
amusement line daring the past week; but as I did
not attend them and as I do not understand jockey
talk I will not attempt to give you any account of
the races but tend you the official report which Is
put down In "horse talk" and which yon can use as
yon please.
I have heard it Intimated that a few days will de-
velopea highly Interesting case of crlm. con.-as It
wllliesult ina suit for divorce. This however I
consider entirely upon the respectability of the par-
ties. If they belong to upper ten the whole affair
will be hushed up and the "ball will go on" as It was
only the result of youthful Indiscretion. That Is the
way such thing are done In high lift among those
who lire and dress beyond their means. But should
a poor woman step aside from the path of honor and
vlrtne there Is no palliation no excuse for her
crime no plea of temptation or youthful Indiscretion
put up In her behalf; the Is doomed and becomesa
miserable outcast If not an abandoned bad woman
who will glory In bringing down others to her own
degraded level. Should this case come to light you
will be duly apprised.
Since my last the weather has been pietty equally
divided between disagreeable and fair. Monday
Tuesday and Friday were unpleasant days ; Wednes-
day Thursday Saturday and Sunday were pleasant.
The two latter were rendered somewhat disagree-
able to pedestrians on account of the mud caused by
rain on Friday night.
Business has been only moderate. The closing of
the Mississippi above Cairo and of the Ohio above
Louisville has greatly effected the levee business.
The arrivals by the river notwithstanding these
blockades have numbered ninety-one which Is the
largest number for any one week this season. Still
there Is a falling off In the receipts as you will see by
the following list of the receipts of leading articles :
Cotton C7S2rbales sugar 4847 hogsheads and C3
tierces and barrels; molasses 10975 barrels ; floui"
22l02barrels ; bacon; 1023 hogsheads casks fiercest
boxes and barrels; pork 5477 hogsheads tierces
and barrels In bulk 530000 pounds: lard 1539
tierces and barrels and 30CS kegs; corn 0522
sacks ; oats 2SS1 barrels and tacks ; tobacco 2S0
hogsheads ; bale rope 279 colls ; whiskey 70St
barrels.
These figures show a falling off In everything ex-
cept bacon pork corn oats and whiskey.
The river at this point Is falling. M.

Tna ELAccnrstt Case. lh Supreme Court has re-
versed the Judgment In the case of Slaughter who
was Indicted for murder before the District Court of
Atsscoso county and acalnst whom a Jurv returned
a verdict of guilty and assessed the punishment at
one year s imprisonment in me penitentiary.
As many of our readers may wish to know the
grounds uponwhlch the Supreme Court proceeded
we appena tuecouuenseu report oi tne aecision given
hv the Southern Intelligencer. S. A. Ledger and
Texan.
Onmox nr Ronaars J. Slaughter was Indicted
for murder. Three questions :
1. In reference to evidence of threats made a day
or two befpre the killing ta the effect that he (Sl'Oul-
longh the deceased) would shoot him. Most fairly
before the court.
2. The bailiff of the jury was In the Jury room
though he said nothing.
3. The verdict of the Jury was Informal Ac. The
Indictment was for murder and the verdict as ful-Iok-s:
"Xe the jury ; find the prisoner guilty and tsttti
the punlshmect at ono years Imprisonment In the
penltenllary."
The code declares that the officer shall be In atten-
dance but not In tho room. The Infraction of the
rule In this case is not shown to have worked preju-
dice. The motion In arrest of judgement presents the suf-
ficiency of tho verdict. The form la given in Article
G2G. Articles C2 G23 nnd 520 were also cited. Art.
C2G means a general verdict as contradistinguished
from a special verdict. Art. G2Q must be taken (u
connection. The motions (or a netjr trial and In ar:
rest of judgment reach th.c pqlnt.
In an Indictment fpr murd.er a general verdict
would be for murder. The terra verdict was defined
to be the declaring the truth of the Issue.
The assessing of punishment does not Imply the
degree of homicide which they found. The GaOth arti-
cle of the coda of criminal procedure must be fol-
Uowed.
ine court cannot looie to theproor to ascertain
what the Jury Intended. Tho object of the statement
oi tacts is ror tne court to determine whether the rui
loirs and tho verdict were warranted by tho facts.
The bill of exceptions shows that the proof of
inreats was exemaeu nut tins was sot assigned ror
error. Merely referred to G12th article of the code.
Judgement reversed."
Kansas and New Mexico Markets r. a
Texas Stock Stolev nr the Indians. .V
gentleman named C. Q. Watrous writes tho
" Ledger and Texan" from Fort Union X. 31
that not only does Kansas furnish a market fu r
the stock stolon froln Texas' by the Commnn-
ches but hat Sew Mexico furnishes equal v
as good a one. 'Ilesats:
"A large portion of the ttock stolen from Texns
Is purchased by traders from New Mexico who ptn-
etrate nearly to the frontier settlements of Texas Io
supply these Indians with everything they need. In c v
change far stock brought from those forays again. t
your borders and In rnany cases the sweat Is n t
dry on anlrnals llins procured before they clianj'O
owners In this ' laudable manner."
This trade Is carried on openly and extensively.
Instead of Its being frowned down and the traders
punished it is fostered and encouraged.
Not only stock taken from Texas but that takm
from our citizens Is disposed of In the same mar-
ket. It Is a resonable conclusion lhat bo lour as IK.
find a ready market for the spoils obtained in tl I .i
manner and can procure the necessary supplies to
carry on offensive operations In exchange there it
small hope of a change for the better.
The ellVnj ncre gener-alty would rejoice wer.
this trade' brought to a close but those who coubl
cuccb uui saca me win in ao so ana it wiu continu
until Texat makes henelf heard In this matter.
Comanche; come Into our settlements and boast
of the outrages committed In Texas but the author
ltles take so notice or It. If they murder nnd rob
ns a dear ear is turned to our complaints tccan?
as Viey sdy our Government fllsUjjes dlnTciUtlej will!
Jndlsnj." " '
Our only hopo of relief rests on Texas. One 1 1
two more licks struck on this frontier and on the A -kantat
like the last struck byMaj. Van Dorn ne.ir
IVaulnut creek would humble these red scoundrels
In the dust.
Had this blow been followed up at once thiy
would have been glad to obtain peace on any term
hut as It was not they are now regaining confidence
and threatnlng retaliation. The effect .of this bio J
Is suggestive of tho coarse to be pursued In fuUny:
Their famlilca must be struck "as they strike outs
before they can Bo cdnqucreU Their fatnallcs ar
in this qnater and until they are attacied here thcif j
Is no hope of peace cither for Texas or New Mexico
Against rambling war parties tthat can be done I

We are pleased to lnTorm the delegates to the State
Democratic Convention at Oalveston that the Hous-
ton and Texas Central road will give them a free pas-
sage down and back so far as they hive occasion to
take Its route on their trip Ihls is truly liberal In
Ihe company and will doubtless be the means or In-
ducing many to come that way who would otherwise

We learn from a gentleman just In from Castro
title that Intelligence had reached that town lhat a
party ot U. 8. soldiers had a fight with the Indians
about M miles above Camp Verde. II Is stated that
Ihe latter passed within Ave miles of Camp Verde
and their trail having been discovered they were
pursued and overtaken and one Indian killed. It Is
said that there was 8 Indians In the party flur In-

ninth ballot the disposition evinced oy the Ameri-
cans and Democrats of all shades to concentrate on
him or some tqually acceptable candidate caused
great excitement among the Republican ranks and

There Is also much a&sjeiy felt among Ihe Demo-
