We deem it unnecessary to lay box of

it is tree, as tU writer esys, that they
can and are willing to bring a force of
well drilled Germans, to aid Lincoln in
rcctptaring the forts and bringing Tesas
again under the yoke of the Union, and
tiksuhjeet as to the abolition rate of his
aflinluiatratipo—then auch an organisation
is traitorous in its character, dangerous to
the peace and good order of aocirty. and
subversiva of the present Government.
This paper has ever most consistently
stood forward as the champion of the

aaturaCaed eitisen. In their darkest hoar.
when persecution beset them grievously.
this paper, at the expense of most of its
patronage, faltered not. but battled man-
folly in their defense. It was under oth-
er and probably abler management then
than now; but the same principles guided
its conduct, the same Polar Star directs
its oourao now as then. To allcitizvns of

hand of fellowship ; we recognize and re-

it better to submit the matter again to a
popular election, but all were ultimately sa-

firm and united support of the people, would
have beta a dangerous policy. Moreover,
the will of thepeople was sufficiently known.
Of the 44,000 voters who voted for secession
a large majority voted so only from the fact
that our neighboring States had already sc-
ceded aad formed another Union, more con-
genial to us thaa what was left, and among
the 13,000 voters against secession, I dare
say a large majority clung to the Union on-
ly to be in a lar=e government which was
able to protect us anil ill a position in the
world. Eren they will much rather belong
to a smaller Union if they can't hare the
luger, than stand alone. Some, of course,
cannot be pleased, and are for the "Lone

to disguise,r
to use a favorito expression
of otncnfcow cease to work
upoa the fears of the timid flork when all
their predictions have turned out to be
phantoms of the glooiny dreams ? To the
ibhikinp they never appeared as anything
else. Those who expected radicalism, an-
archy. disregard of law or despotism from
the revolution through which we have pass-
ed, greatly mistook, the character of the
movement. The doctrines of the southern
statesmen, were ever conservative. A firm
adherence to the guarantees of the Constitu-
tion and laws; a strict construction of the
constitution, a jealous surveillance of the
delegated powers of the government, the
very characteristic of unglo saxon republic-
anism, have alwi's distinguished southern
politics from the Iatitudinar:an ideas pf the
northern higher-law school. When the
South determined to preserve her institu-
tions \not only the peculiar institution) un-
changed, cuts loose from the radical drift of
the ruling majority in the North, we cannot
wonder that such a revolution should pre-
vent the singular spectacle of a government
undone, and a new one made without the
shedding of a drop of blood, without the
infraction upon the slightest personal right
and without the change of an essential law.
Nothing could illustrate the future of. our
revolution better than the acts of tho con-
vention. Elected by one party, containing
the pecahar oircumstances the extre-
mes! politicians of the State, sitting at a
time of high excitement, they have in their
large majority invariably exhibited a high
. degree of moderation, of liberal feeling and
syeonservative sprit, and, assailing our consti
and
amend; tbey have left it almost unchanged
aad what few necessary changes they did
anst be justified even by the just men
_ their opponents.
s to the idea of creating legal and politi-
cal differs nces between the slaveholder and
iveboider, no sane mind oould ever
expect such a movement- to be initiated
the Southtrn peop'c. The ••irrepres-
sible conflict" between free labor and slave
labor originated in the brains of some ex-
treme men and never existed in reality. If
<t existed, the great danger for Southern in-
stitutions would be in this conflict. 11 ow
then can any reasoning mind suppose that
this imaginary conflict, born in the brain ol
the enemies of the South, should be made
real, and receive furtn and substance by the
deliberate acti n of southern statesmen.
I intended to add something about the
proceedings in the legislature, but am afraid
to intrude too muoh upon the space of your

lunioation to the next mail.

Heretofore they have contented themselves
with visiting the isolated ranches and outer
settlements of the county. New, however,
they are paying their respecta te the coun-

to Esquire Bates, one to L. P. Herd, two to
Wm. M.Evana, and ono to A. J. Grimas
were all taken from the immediate vicinity
of town, and three horses belonging to Mr,
Wm. II. Pulliam, were taken from «rbtrs

the aeeession votes had triumphed, he ac-
knowledged his obligations of -llegiance to

Our New Constitution.—The N. Y. Her-,
aid saj-'s of this document, in its differences
triih the old Constitution:
Tiit-se are the principnl changes. Thry
are characterized by wisdein and fore-
thought, and display profound knowledge of
the wants of the country. The door is left
open for the admission of other States, upon
equal terms, into the new Confederacy, and
tho tenor of the whole instrument, is con-
cilitory, firm and sagacious. There is no
part of it, which cannot be consistently
adopted by the North, and which will not
commend itself to sober minded, conserva-
tivo citizens in the non-slaveholding portion
of the Union. Virginia, Maryland, Kentuc-
ky, North Carolina, Tennessee and Arkan-
sas, will greet it with such enthusiasm as
kindred views and interests must dictate,
and. if submitted to the people of all tlm
States, there is no question that it roll
te accedí d t) by three quarters of their
wh de n miter.
In annotber article, the Ilcrald says:
This Constitution is n model State paper.
It preservKS all the best features of tho ori-
ginal compact, with cerlain requisite addi-
tions. It is as perfect as any such instru-
ment can b". It embodies the ideas of the
f titers of the republic, and offers the very
best platform for the political discussion
that will be carried on between the North
and the South during the next year or two.

ment of Texas. *
We infer that in t very short time we shall*

Capt. W. G. Tobin has arrivod with s>

We are g-atified to hear of those gentle'!
men, author'._ed to raise companies for fron-

The first officer who takes position on the
frontier, with the complement- of men, re-
quired by law, fully armed snd equipped
should be entitled to something more than
