It is to the interest of 0very citizen of
Texas to be an intense Radical ii be can
conscientiously i. ko suut. * p. ici.>«.—
Our roa.«onH for making thisvaineitioB are
really enganf. and ought to be convincing.
1. Secession is dead. Tho truth of this
proposition is too evident to admit of ar-
gument.
It follows that the last sparks of vitality in
the constantly dwindling rebel clement
are being exhausted in vain opposition to
what is termed consolidation. This " con-
solidation " simply means that the tton-
oral Government will no longer permit
" sovereign States " to iudulge in auarolty
or to enslave or opprcs3 iu any nay any
class of oitixens on acoouut of oolor or po-
litical opinionu, Tho Government will
assume all the powers necessary for tba
performance of this, ita nio t essential
function. Now, if the pooplo of tho South-
ern States will bo influenced by ltadica|
ideas sufficiently to induce then te main-
tain inviolate tho civil and political equal*
ity of all men, and ti n absolute freedom
of speech, then tho unco unity for furthor
consolidation will bo obviated and our
"State rights" frieuds will bask in tho
uninterrupted enjoyment of their romuins
ing privileges
2.   Slavery is dead, nnd all ita concom-
itants will share its fate. C'aato is incom-
patible with au enlightened civilixation.—
The North gained rcsiailoss power in the
counoils of the Nation by plantiug herself
on the vantage ground of Freedom. Now,
shall the South lose the golden opportuni-
ty of leading in tho completion of the pro-
gressing Revolution ? To illustrato : the
civil and political rights of tho freed peo-
ple are to bo practically enforced and per-
manently secured. Shall tho North have
nil the glory of accomplishing this great
reform ? We do carnostly insiit that our
South' n Il'<die:>ls'<bnuld go beyond Phi'-
'.ins, Pauiiier, Gr.rrin'ii or any other N"r
!'■• j man: Jefferson, ft native of Yirgin-
•mnounoed to the wotld that " All men
, created frro and equal." Abraham
Litioolu, a native of Kentucky, reduced
tins immortal d eclaratioo to praetieo.—
These men, an i men like these, will some
time bo claimed as the truo representa-
tive men of the South, because the great-
est good for this Section can only be secur-
ed by our adopting their principles and
polioy.
8. Radical Reconstruction will be imme-
diately followed by tho removal of all po-
litical disabilities. We all desire this uni-
versal amnesty but not at the csponso of
the liberties of tho weak. The Govern-
ment should and will perpetuate tho diss
qualification and disfranchisement of the
rioh, the cducatedjfaudj the powerful, if
these do not concede equal rights to tho

thereof. Wo shs'I tabo plsciarc in can''
vassiag tba abilities and merits of those
rrhoei acts havo placed, cr may hereafter
piaco thtmsalvos prominently before the
publie. •
Just at this time our attention is natus
urally called to those who are to represent
our 8th Senatorial District.
Judge Donald Campbell, our Senator
elect, is too well known to require aay en-
comium from us. It ia peculiarly fortu-.
note that his election was effected in spite
of any Itocus poem that, his epponeuts
could invent. Mr. Campbell had so long
been persecuted and hated for his devotion
to law arid order, union aud liberty, during
nl1 the dark Hays of rel>ellion and anarefiy
that every Republican in the State will
heartily congratulate him on his triumph
over combined fraad and treason. He
will enter upon bis new duties prepared,
na always in the past, to uphold the prin-
ciples ol tho most advanced Republican-
ism.
Messrs C. D. Morris and J. W. John*
son, two of tho Representatives elect from
this District, both reside iu this City and
are men of first class business talents, «k
well as possessed of imdomifable energy and
what is of most consequence in these criti-
cal times, they may bo counted on as re
liable Republican*. J)r Robinson, of
Howie county, the other Repretetitalive,
is a young man of tmicb promise.
Altogether, our whole delegation will
undoubtedly work like beavers for the
good cause nearest our hearts, and they
will likewise work faithfully to promot*
tho materiul interests of Jefferson and the
whole surrounding country. We doub'
not that they will seoure tho respect of
thoir opponents and retain the conGdanco
of thoir friends.

deliveied to the meeting of the tadicals

our fortune to bear for a long time. In
the course of Mr, Slaughter's remarks, be
toek eertain radical grounds that would
not havo been tolerated when tie made til
hasty exit from this community. He said
that while he was willing to meet all re>.
