Judge Hancock was a distinguished

President "who expressed himsolf
as much gratified nt tho action of
the Convention ana among otner
things they succeeded in saving the
peoplo of Texas nenrly half it-million

been collected from thorn ero this

with the Direct Tax." '
Judge Hancock accused the Bex-
ar delegation in tho Convention
with having formed tho Uadic.nl
party in Texas and denounced it
as being the advocate :of disunion
war ruin and infamy." . ;
He.referrcd to tho Prosidont as a
noble iustanco of self-conquest un-
dertaken and completed with a view
to the good of the country and ap-
pealed earnestly to the. peoplo to
sustain him. lie stated that he
was hopeful of the success of tho
President against tho .Radicals.
The papers concur in tho warm-
est praise of tho speech and say it
was remarkably received. It may
have been the means of reducing
the Radical voto but Tease got a
most awful support out there nev-
ertheless. His supporters must
have been all Mexicans as wo pre-
sume the Americans and Germans

ty in New York stating that efforts

Europeans from immigrating ' and
Bottling in the Southern Slates by
circulating statements that such et-

statements can be refuted success-
fully only by referring the Euro-
peans to the laws of the Southern
States relating to the mode of ac-
quiring property and to tho privi-
leges and rights civil anf political
secured to the' foreigners locating
therein and Gov. Wells is requested
to fflrnish such information togeth-

writer says the 8ociety over which

R.ux. Kiavx and soaking' rains have
fallen at this place the present week on
Sunday morning we had ft good shower
on Monday another and again on Tuesday
morning 0110 of the henriest rains we havo
witnessed for a long time fell flooding our
streets in a littlo while The rain we un-
derstand has reached as fardowu as Waeo.
The rain will be a great benefit to the
corn crop iu this section but will probably
damage some wheat which has not yet been
Blacked.
. The Election.
' The Houslon Telegraph sums-tip the re-
turns from twenty counties complete in
all reppeets except on the Constitutional
Amendments and the vote for J.t. Governor
Attorney (ieneral Comptroller Treasurer
and Commissioner 0. L. Office for -which
the voles for two counties are wanting
with the following result:
' For Governor Throckmorton 11221 j
Pease 2038 . Lieutenant Governor Jones

Walton 0531; Barton 3106; Binckley

Smith 7100 ; Cleveland 4779 ; Oohiltroe
1.937; Hell 2-lSfi; Caldwell 1843; Jones
2077; Johnson 070.
The same paper adds: 'J-
'-Theso aggregates do not inolude tho
scattering and fractional returns from
counties which we havo before ns. If they
were ndded. Throckmorton s majority would
be increased about twenty-five hundred
votrs while Cleveland for the Supreme
Court -would run up lo within a few votes
of Smith. Walton's majority would also
be pretty largely increased. Tho counties
are nearly all of Middle Texas." '
In regard to the Amendments we have
returns from nearly thirty counties some
of them official but most of them only par-
tial which give 11054 voles in favor and
7r.'8 against the adoption of the Amend-
ments. These returns are scattered all
over the State from the Rio Grande to Red
River and wo think indicate pretty well
the' result' We believe the amendments
are adopted by a "majority of all the rotes
east" '

This cxtrcmo desire bn had I he
very opposite offuct of that Intended and
wo uow icalixu the fact that tho less they
do tho more they auk.
The time has fully conio when lhee
clinrlored companies should ha taught that
for the ptivili'gce granted the country has
ai-ighlauii will demand corresponding
benefits. Seeing (hen tho full tiro of ex-
treme leniency and the most liberal grants
It Is wisdom lo try nn opposite regime.
Let noooinpany be chartered unless it be
Dimly bound 10 progress with tho load up
to its possiblo ability and let every failure
10 comp y work the forfeiture of tho char-
ter. The Central Rail Road Company not
only does not meet the publio expectations
lulls progross but it may be stands in the
woy of lb formation of a company that
would push through the road. The fact Is
that perhaps as few ns a half doten gentle-
men have bocn ablo to hold on to their
stock and now own the road at less (liana
nioicty of ils cost and they intend no one
shall sharo the benefits of their monopoly.
For it is a popular belief that' they have
had the offer of aid from capitalists if they
would let them in upon fair terms but they
dcolined because they had too good a thing
to divide with others or to raiso tho means
of extension upon every schomo thatwould
impair their present advantages. The peo-
plo must therefore wait upon their snail's
pace upon the building of the road out of
their limited means bocauso any other plan
is incompatible with tho monopoly they
hold.
The Legislature doubtless will be nskod
for a heavy Innd bouus; in other words if
tho legislature will givo them as much land
as will pay the cost of extension tlien thoy
will as a matter of grace build tho road
as suits their convenience
The State would not be loser if it were to
build tho road and then turn it over to a
company that would faithfully fulfill its
obligations to the couut-y. This might bo
shown to be true by tho enhancement of
the tnxablo property of tho country. Lands
that could now be bought for from one to
two dollars per norc would be worth in fivo
years fron ten to thirty dollars. Indeed
there is no reason why lands in the grain
region of the State should not be worth
with a railroad complete as much as they
are in any portion of the United States
while (hero are many that would enforce
the belief that they would reach a higher
value. Briefly the early harvest and con-
sequent command of tho markets the su-
periority of the flour for shipment the
mildnessof tho climato and shortness of
tho winter rendering it cheaper to koop
stock during tho cold months are all in fa-
vor of higher pricod lands hero" than in
any of the Norlh-westofn States.
Tho completion of a road from Hit Gulf
through the wheat region is a question of
such mngnitudo that it dwarfs all others
into insignficance. It is to be hoped that
our representatives will realize its Import-
ance and act accordingly. '

two performances in this place yesterday
at 2 and 7 o'clock P. M. We believe we
express the sentiment of all who attended
when we say that the performances were
equal if not superior to any ever exhibited
in a traveling circus in Texas. In the af-
ternoon the attendance was very large as
many a could get Mats and at night a
very good company greeted the performers;
altogether everything passed off to the sat-
isfaction of both the audianc and the
managers.

from the oitizens of the town two from A.
McNeil two mules from Dr. Tolliver two
from John Roherts and twenty-two from a
widow lady in the eastern part of tiio coun-
ty.' It seems that they camo in from the
northern pnrt of the county passed through
the town of Stevonsville down the Bosque
seven miles below town and then turned
eastward and out north through Parker
county stealing all Iho horses they could
find. They attempted to capture several
children but in this they failed. Theae
depredations seriously retard the prosperi-
ty of the country by rendering life and pro-
perly insecure. The citizens of the frontier
ought to be prolcotod against these depre-
dations of the Indians or of (he more vil-
lainous white men in the garb of Indians

Munniin. The Galveston Bullotin of the
1st. has tho following:
At an early hour yesterday forenoon
some fishermen found the body of Alfred
Lsfeullndo the French fisherman who was
murdered on Wednesday night. It was
found in the Bay at the foot of Strand
street. The body had lied to the feet a pig
of Iron weighing sixty-four pounds. It
was high tido when the body was thrown
into tho bay and of course when the water
fell it Was anchored partly out of water.
There was a bullet holo in the bead and
the throat was cut.
Tho murderer was taken una confronted
with tha body He evinced the deepest
emotion theu (Mid at UlJ examination. Vv'e
never saw a murderer more completely un-
manned although he would occasionally
rally himself enough lo prompt his ooun-
sel yet he would immediately cower down.
We have already spoken' of hi contra-
dictory statements. Some money belong-
ing to the deceased was found upon his
person. The coat which the prisoner wore
during the examinhtion was the one taken
from the-body of the murdered man and
was so identified. .
Tbe lady with whom both the deceased
and tho accused boarded recognised the
pocket book of the deceased in Ibe hands
Of the accused after the murder. It Is
known that I'ePrtfy dropped this book in
the street on Thursday lhat it was picked
up and carried into a store. The finder is
requested to send it to Justice Seawcll.
Evidence is rapidly developing whichproves
him to be the murderer of the unknown
man found in Smith' ditch. On the morn
ing succeeding that murder he deposited an J
amount of gold. Tbt hearing was not con-
cluded but will be continued on Monday
at 10 A. u. . The greatest excitement pre-
railed among our French residents. It i i
well known that many were seeking an op- j
portonity to bang him and had rope for
that purpose. Ihe strong police force pre- I
vented the attempt. The poor (linking '
oowardly guilty man manacled so that be
oonld not step moro than a few inches pre-
sented a most pitiable spectacle.
We learn from tho Trinity News that on
the 80th inst W..B. Owen a desperado
who had fled from the law and mail bis
home in Red River County returned with
three companions to Athens in Henderson
county and the Sheriff attempting to exe
cute a writ against Uwens. wa snccessrul-

Piirsidf.nt Johnson and Mr. Davis.
The Now York Times thus refers to Presi-
dent Johnson's proclamation alleging the
complicity of Mr. Davis with tho murder
of Mr. Lincoln:
Unscrupulous partisan journals are con-
tinually reiterating the statement that the
proclamation isBiied by the President ou
the 2nd day of May 1S6C offering a re-
ward for the capture of Davis Clay and
othors was issued upon his own motion nnd
founded upon his own belief that the mur-
der of Mr. Lincoln and nttompted assassi-
nation of Mr. Seward wore incited and
procured by Davis Clay nnd others. Tho
radical organ here repeats the assertion
and says Judge Holt had nothing to do
filth the Imprisonment and continued in-
carceration of the partios on tho charge.
Tbe truth is that the President did not
himself investigate any of tho alleged facts
and cvidenco upon which the proclamation
was issued. It was based entirely upon
the statement furnished by Judga Holt
from the Bureau of Military Justioe. The
exigency of the occasion precluded tho idea
of thorough investigation by the President
of tho voluminous and circumstantial
proofs on file in the Bureau of Military
Justice. Mr. Johnson had occupied Ihe Pres-
idential chair but a little over two weeks
when Judgo IIolt B report was presented lo
him and he was so burdened with official
cares lhat ho oould not if he hnd been dis-
posed havo thoroughly examined tho testi-
monv; nor wns'thero probably any necessi-
ty for the oustom has been generally to
take the rcportB and statements of heads
of the departments as the basis fur the
President's official action.

and friends on board in thirty fath-
