Texas into proper commercial rela-
lions with the whole of the Union
by land-carriage, and independently
of long and dangerous voyrges by
the Gulf and the Atlantic Ocean.—
It is, therefore a public improve-
ment of more than ordinary impor-
lance and calls for an attention which

Company, Galveston, $2,500; Etna,

ance on her furniture Of $1,875, as
follows: North British and Mor.
The whole free-tradedelement of
the North is opposed to Greeley,
and the most of it headed by the
New 1 ork Evening Post, will sup
port a Democrat fo beat Grant,-
Thirty German editors met after
the Convention had adjourned and
repudiated the nomination. These
and others have since called a Ger-
man Convention to meet at Balti-
more, the Democratic Convention.
The Reunion and Reform Conven
tion which sat daring the Cinein-
nati Convention, in a hall adjacent,
refused to endorse the nomination
and adjourned subject to a call from
its chairman.
, Now, you must remember, these
. are all elements of the Radical par
ty, that driven off by Grant, will
not rally upon Greeley. Their
eyes are not upon Baltimore. The
Democrats of the North bate Gree-
ley more than any Radical save
Grant, and nearly as much as they
do him.
T
1 These men not being of our eon
dition, will indulge their prodjudi
cos as many of our best citizens
did in the race between Davis and
Hamilton, and will not vole at all.
By this defection the loss will be
greater than the gain from Radical-
sources: Aside from these fact-, -
the Democrats, who vote for Gree.
ley, will do it as a daty solely, an I
without enthusiasm the field can
not be won.
Now on the contrary, if the Bal.
timore Convention adopt a free
and liberal platform of princi-
ples, and nominate a pure man and
wise statesman, the Democrats of
the North and South will rally to
the old standard with fervid en.
thusiasm, Horace Greeley will
most likely quit the contest and ro-
turn to Grant, and many so called
Liberal Republicans will return
likewise: but the Revenue Reform-
er will join the new movement ,
the honest Germans, who above all
things demand a pure ndininistra-
tion; and those Republicans who
have too mach respect for common
decency to vole for Grant, will flock
to the support of on able incorrag-
tible candidate. Democratic though *
he may be. Wit’s all these ele-
mentis, the success of the movement
get that in a presidential campaign,
the leading motive which guides
the course of many voters, must be
found in the public ‘character and
records of candidates for the presi-
dency; we therefore call on the
friends of free trade and kindred
reforms to unite with us in efforts
to secure the nomination of a can-
didato who shall adequately repre-
sent our principles ; and .
Resolved further. That for this
purpose the president of this meet
ing be empowered to appoints com
mittee of ten which shall have pow-
er to add to its number, and whose
duty it shall be to put themselves
in communication, and to concert
an effective co operation with al
it has not hitherto received. This
will be still more apparent when
the Company’s proposed extensions
in Mexico aro finally arranged;

" Pestrion or rus New Yonx Dex-
ecnacY.—The position of the New
York delegates to the Baltimore Con
vention is said to ba this: If the
reform movement develops such
strength, before July as to lead to
the hope that with the Democratic
vote, Greely and Brown could be
elected, the New York delegates
will vote solid in convention to rat-
| cantile, 81,125, Etna, 8750. How
the fire originated, we have no
means of knowing, nor do we know
the amount of Mrs. Pruitt's loss.
I That estimable lady we trust will
at once rent another house, resume
business, and be so liberally sus-
tained that she will be soon in a
better condition pecuniarily than
she was before. 1
The fire companies are entitled
to special commendations. Thoy
worked with a zeal and efficiency
that we have never seen- surpassed
if egaalled since their organization.
If then• had been plenty water con-
venient we feel confident that the
fire would have made but little
headway; and when we take into
consideration that the buildings
were frame, the suscess of the com-
panies was astonishing. On the
hill large resec voirs of water should
be made; while in the lower part of
the city, the wells and pumps of
Messrs. Boney & Brooks and Mr.
W. J. Seiberry show that every
building in the active business part
of the city can have * well and
pump at a little cost.—efcrson

formers develop no strength be-
tweon now and the meeting of the
Democratic Convention, Now York
will vote for a regular Democratic
nomination, even with the certainty
of his being defeated. This is an
the principle that if the Democratic
vote must be thrown away on any
body, it is better to throw it away
on a regular Democratic nominee
than on Mr. Greely. '
