1KG IMMIGRATION.
Upon this subject it is otjiy nec-
essary to read the reports of the
Ageats of the Immigration Bureau,
attached to the published report of
Mr. Loeffler. the Superintendent, to
fonn a correct conclusion as to the
importance of eBConraging immin
gration in the most liberal man-
ner.
!Bie Agent at New York, Gen.
W. H. Parsons, reports :
" I have transmitted my acconnt
cnrrent of contingent expense for
office rent, advertising, etc, all of
which I have been compelled to ad-
Vance for the State for want of Ba-
teau funds to promptly meet them.
Nearly all the border Western (
States have agents in New York. I
fppl assured that the labors of this
jear have already returned t) Tex-
as an hundred fold upon the paljry
Investment of the appropriation to
eastain your Bureau. Texas only
needs to be known correctly
through her own representatives
aad agents in all the States and na~
taoi^s where she has been Badly
ajisrepreeented, to induce such a
tide of immigration as will doable
otrr population and wealth in five
years from the completion of the
five great rail-lines now projected
aefoss our borders."
Col. J. H. L;ppard, Agent at St.
Iiouis, reports ;
^ I have freely circulated the
printed matter furnished me, yet the
demand was not supplied, and 1
have found, tn it the wide awake
pedple of the Northwest are not
eatlfcfied with annual repbrts, but
mmt to be up with the times."
The Hon. Theodore Hertsberg,
fbe Continental Agent, with his
headquarters at Bremen, reports;
MA1 the information I can give
to the people about* Texas must be
fey letter, aided by the patnphlet
from DeWitt county, and especi&lly
the article on Texas in German,
prepared by yon in the New Yorker
Farmer Z^tnug ; and the absence
of a German and French book or
pamphlet on Texas and her resourc-
es, etc., is very embarrassing to me
and not at all a good recommenda-
tion for a State desiring immigrants,
viewing the great efforts made
by her competitors of the Uoi*
ted States, Canada, Brazil, and
even pri ate but powerful corpora*,
tlons. These parties, knowing that
the only way to convince Europeans
ctf an amel oration offered to their
condition in a new home, to be by
furnishing them food for the mind,
in the shape of reading ma;ter, log-
ically demonstrating the advanta-
ges offered by e&ch State or com-
pany. they respectively represent,
have not only distributed millions
ef pamphlets in most every Euro-
pean-language, lauding those conn.
toes to the sfcies. but itsO bought
est and are now publishing ,s me
hundred newspapers in Germany,
France, Bohemia, Austria, Switzer-
land, Sweden, England, and even in
Russia. Ih order to still more ef-
fect a realization of their wishes, to
obtain- immigrants, they offer to
pay their passage, either al of it
or at least a considerable prop or*
tien thereof, and by these means
readily obtain hundreds."
Mr.Theo. Lappe, Agent without
pay, for Franc? and Switzerland,.re-
ports ;
" I accept the appointment, with
the conv ction that I can candidly
recommend Texas to our people
here, not only in regard to its clt—
mstic peculiarities, but also In re-
card to its political condition,which
latter highly elevate it over Baenos
Ayres, Chiif, etc:, and further, it is
■ot as costly to the emfg;ant to
4o reach Texas as other countries
which might compete with it in pro-
4aetavanesa of soil and climatic re-
lations . It will be my first duty to
•taly the be*t manner of being use-
tai in my offioe for Texas and I
havejclearly found out that, besides
a great intellectual activity and
employment of all available re-
sosrees, ready pecuniary means are
isdispensible to promulgate the lit-
erary preduotiojs Even if these
are given gratuitously, it requires
money to pay postage and tr&veling
expenses for small trips that be-
come necessary, as my means do
not allow me to defray these per-
sonally, although I am willing to
devote my time and labor, without
charge, to this onject, and it would
also become necessary to have the
co-operation of good and intelligent
men, which cannot be obtained gra-
tis, as well as short advertisements
oy translations in the most icflaents
ii*l newspapers."
All of these Agents bave for the
burden of their appeals— more Light
on Texas ; more printed matter for ctr-
.-fixation, We meet c i mpete with the
indnce immigration*
And yet in the face of all the ef.
forts being made by other States
and countries} and the immense
amount of money they are expends
ing to secure people for ihemselvess
there seems to be some in our Legs
islature who would strike down our
Immigration Bureau and depend
upon the chapter of accidents to
people of Texas. If they should
they would never bear the last of
it.
Tom Scott has sustained his first
defeat in the State of New Jersey.
It is termed ''Scott's Waterloo de«
feat,'' but it will not proie as dis-
astrous as the name imports for
Scott's empire is diffusive and has no
focal head to be crushed by a single
blow, nor will its fate ever be sub-
mitted to the hazard of the die upon
a single throw* His gages of oat-
tie are thrown down on many fields,
and every State Capital marks a
salient. The way that one of these
salients was carried in New Jersey
was thus. The Camden and Am-
boy monopoly had been protected
because that monopoly was a con-
tract terminable at a given time
and not before. When the time
arrived,Camden and Am boy, to avoid
impending competition sold a per-
petual lease to the Pennsylvania
company, afid the latter assuming
that the monopoly had been pre-
served by money alon6, trusted to
the same agency for prepetuating
it. But the good faith of the State
being no longer involved, the in-
fluences that Tom Scott has used so
effectively in many other Legisla-
tures, failed utterly in that of New
Jersey, and such action was taken
as will insure competition, tt> the
general benefit of ail Southern and
Western traffic with New York
city.
"We are sorry to learn that the
late cold snap was detrimental to
the orchards and vegetables in
various parts of the State. Some
complaint is made too, of injury to
the corn, in the more Northern
parts of the State, but if farmers
act wisely, they will not plow it up.
It is better to wait and see, if it
will not come up, and to replant the
hills in which tbestalfcs are killed.
We have noticsd that those farmers
who do this,, have the best crops,
and that the corn thus replanted
matures about as soon as the stalks

that escape destruction. Perhaps
the younger, corn is supported by
the older—at all events, it matures
much quicker and makes a better
crop than to plow all op and plant
over. • \

Tds State Gazette is a little sur-
prised that the brokers of Austin,
who constituted the committee of
arrangements for the reception of
Generals Sheridan and Belknap,
did not consider the honor of their
position sufficient to justify them
in footing the bill on their private
acconnt. The body of this senti-
ment has a strong odor of sarcasm,
but, §s it does not seem from its
connection with the other parts ,of
the same article to be really in-
tended, we must congratulate the
Gazette on its evident recovery
from political contumacy, and its
wholesome display of energetic
agility ih submitting means for the
prompt fashionidg of that bridge,
so much talked of, which is at last
to span the bloody chasm, out of the
depths of which rise the monumen-
tal endeavors of Horace Greeley.
More consistency was shown by J.
G. Tracy, who voted against the
resolution tendering honors to Jef-
ferson Davis. But we are .not to be
understood as blamiBg the Gazette
or praising Tracy. The act of the
latter smells of the battle field, and
reminds us cf blood. We only are
sorry that the conversion of the
Gazette to the ways and means of
harmony bad not sooner occurred,
and that the dibtates of common
sense and the demands of the situa-
tion had not been earlier pursued.
The city of San Antonio publishes
in the city press, its receipts and
expenditures monthly. All incor-
porated towns and cities should be
required to do this, and the state-
ments should be under oath, and
the same rule should apply to the
State and counties.

School, published in this issue, and
in this connection! we would inqaire
if the intermediaries between ♦he
Superintendent and teachers have
failed to get their pay ?
We have heard of teachers so
pressed for a support that they bave
been compelled to sell their Claims
to speculators at a ruinous discount,
and henceforth we earnestly advise
every teacher never to transfer a
claim without dating the transfer and
in the transfer, to whom it is transfered
Do this and your claims will soon

Brother Webb, of the Houston
Telegraph, has allowed his " angry
passions to rise" and dropped the
Messenger from his exchange list-
well, not exactlv t-:e Messenger
either, but tbe 'Adv;:?-®, a paper
published at this piaea averal years
ago. Our. little sq-j.ib last week
seemed to wake him, p Now, if
we can only keep bis* awake two
or three years, and get bim to study
over the matter and look at it in
all its bearings, may be he will come
to the conclusion that he acted rather
hastily in this case. We don't want
any of Harris county, Brother Webb,
especially if there is any danger of
making that county Bradical.
Excuse us, but you are Mfttaken,
as your little squib had nothing to do
with the matter, for we supposed
that you had been on our exchange
list all tbe time, and when tbe Ad-
vance was discontinued we did not
think it cut you off. You are now on
our X list, and while we differ with
you as to the proposed new county
it shall never disturb the courtesy
due you.

The house of Mr. Sumner, of
Sherman, took fire on Wednesday
last under peculiar circumstances-
The stove was fourteen feet from |he
ceiling and the pipe encased in a ven-
tilator, but notwithstandihg this the
fire originated in the ceiling and from
an accumulation of cobwebs and
other matter around the pipe casing.
The fire bad made considerable pro-
gress before it was discovered but
was put out without much damage
having been done. The lesson we
learn from this is to keep cobwebs,
rat's nests, etc,, cleaned away from
our stove pipes. Mr. Summner is
said to bave been an exceedingly
cautious man but came near sustain -
ing a heavy loss by not having
thought ot this possible danger.

The Waco Register surmises that
some Democrat steals its exchange
copy while en route to this city,
and thus accounts for our mot re-
ceiving it regularly! It thinks,
however, the "truths" that this sup-

ister, is a sufficient punishment for
his peculations We heartily agree
with the Register.
The Kaufcuan Star learns that the
Terrell depot will be called Aurora.
From our experience of Texas de-
pot towns, we are able to testify to
tbe appropriateness of the name if
it was spelt a little different, the
pronunciation being carefully pre-
served, On this score nearly all
the depot towns might well receive
tbe same name.
The Brownsville RaBchero learns
that the Mexican city of Guerrero
has passed an ordinance prohibiting
the crossing of cattle in that conn*
try, without being accompanied
with a bill of sale. All cattle seiz -
ed, if cot claimed, will be sold, and
the proceeds deposited to await the
the demand of legal claimants.
The marks and brands are to be

It is a favorable indication for tbe
perma-enc* of conetitntioaM gov-*
ernment ix> this country to Bee tie
press of the North realising the
dangerous character and icfloence
of the precedents that are being
established in the South in the ag-
gressions upon and the usurpations
of the reserved rights of the States
by the federal authorities. Tbe
outrage in Louisiana has been
largely notioed and severely com-
mented upon by many leading i pa*,
pers, and grave apprehensions ex-
pressed as to its ruinous tendency
upon the.most cherished features of
our govermental system. The Mew
York Sun has this to say in regard
to the situation there:
The address of Governor McEnery
and the Louisiana Legislatare to
the people of that State, to which
reference is made in a letter from
t&e Governor, which appears in
another column, is a moderate, ju-
dicious, and dignified appeal to the
citiz;ns of Louisiana to use every
legitimate means to protect them-
selves from the unlawful proceed^
ihgs of a body of conspirators who,
without a shadow of right, proclaim
themselves to be the government of
the State.'{ ■
This spurious government, resting
entirely upon tbe outrageous jndi*
cial orders of a drunken United
States Judge, whose proceecings
bave been declared a gross usurpa-
tion by the committee of the United
States Senate which has had the
matter und;ir consideration, has re-
ceived the protection of the Presi-
dent and is sustained in pewer by
federal troops. Under these cir-
cumstances the legal authorities of
Louisiana are placed in a most em-
barrassing position. In tseir ad-
dress t> the people they say: "If
we -resist the Executiveof tbe
United States, which with arms de-
fend this usurpation, we are rebels ;
if we do cot resist it we submit to
and acknowledge its authority and
power." Not being disposed,to re-
cognize tbe usurping Government as
having any legal standing, Governor
McEnery and bis associates urge their
fellow citizens to support the legiti-
mate Government, not by violent
resistance to tbe laws of tbe United
States, but by a firm and united op-
position to any and every act of
Kellogg and bis fellow conspirators.
This policy is doubtless fhe most
judicious that could be parBaed. It
is not revolutionary, but eminently
conservative. Tbe legal authorities
can not bring tbemseives to believe
tb&t Congress will sac ction so moot
strous an outrage on tbe principles cf
Repuqlican institution as this Kellogg
usurpation; and refusing to acknowl-
edge tbe authority of an illegal gov*
ernment to collect.taxes or otherwise
exerciBe power over them, tbey pro-
pose to contest its assnmptiocs oi
authority in a'peaceial manner, and
fight tbe matter cut in the cocrts
on til'every legal mbde of relief is ex-
hausted. Before that time arrives
they hope to get justice from Con-
gress. """ ' " :
One" thing is certain. Whatever
Congress may ultimately do, there is^
no doubt that tbe pub:ic sentiment of
of tbe country is with the men who
are showing tbemseives so determined
in the peaceful maintenance of their
rights.''. >4

As a woman, I suppose I should
keep my bead covered, and observe
silence; but the newBpaper madness
having reached my sex, I venture a
few remarks. The ''reports of
schools'' published recently, inter**
ested me, as 1 am one of the two
hundred and thirty-three who re-
ceive (on paper) $56 00 average
salary, for teaching pupils at $1 33
per capita. Does this statement
convey the whole truth ?" If not,
why? $1 33 per pupil per month
is cheap enoogb in all conscience,
and $^3,000 00 for 10,000 pupils,
needs only the statement to prove
that teachers are not over-paid when,
paid at all. Not reckoned, however,
are the Snperintendent of Public
Instruction and forty clerks, Super-
visors and Inspectors. One Super-
visor for each District; one Inspec-
tor for each county, at $1,800 00
per annum, with clerks etc. etc.,
swell up the annual expense for
these ornamental gentlemen to
about $146,000 00; whilst the
real expense outrbt to be that of
teachers, say, $125,000 00.
" Now Mr. Editor yon preceive
that by saving tbe former expense,
school booses could be bnilt and
furniBbed, teachers paid, dissatis-
faction removed, and prosperity
and assured success would be
given to tbe system. Sarah.

Sir: The Telegraph of yesterday
contains the name of God. It is
singular that tbe name of God should
be spelled in four letters in Almost
evary known language. The author
is incorrect, so far as tbe Irish lanr
ftuage is concerned. Tbe name of
God is spelled in three letters Dia,
instead of four letters—IHoh.

Repudiation swans simp y tbe re-
fusal to pay an honest legal debt
But while States have their cred-
itors u. on tbe hip and cannot be
forced by execution or imprison*
ment to pay any of their obliga-
tions, tbe sense of honor on their
part t pay such debtsf should be
above reproach, and the Stote es-
cutcheon in this respect should be
as dfizz<ing as a noonday unclouded
sun.
But to save our life, we cannot
see why a State shoald be placed
in any worse position than an in-
dividual debtor.
If a debt be unconstitutional or
fraudulent, it is an absolute nullity,
and while it is true, that negotia*'
ble paper in the hands of an inno^
cent purchaser, passed before ma-
turity, is protected in favor of the
innocencs of the hoides, yet if no-
tice of fraud can be brought down
to tbe thousandth holder, or if the
paper upon its face, or with refer.,
ence to laws or constitution, or I ny
other matter, to which its face call*
the attention of the holder, appears
to be illegal or unconstitutional, it is
a nullity, and confers no legal or
moral right upon its holder tot de-
mand payment.
Therefore, if a State should resist
a demand for payment, or the en-
forcement of a right claimed by a
party against it, upon such grounds
and the Courts should hold them
well taken, then t would be pre-
posterously absurd to hold that thi*
would t e repudiation on the part of
the State. ,
A State is not a prairie hen, o
be shot, picked, cooked and eaten
by every sportsman. . It has "legal
rights as well as individuals, and
.ertainly should Mot be placed in
any worse position.
Speaking of the members of the
Legislature, who voted against the
land amendment to the constitution,
the Statesman says:.
If they,would follow their own
reasoning to its logical conclusions,
they would strike down every en
terprise in the State. And yet they
set themselves up as the friend?-,
par excellence, of inter jal improves
meats.
We are sorry that any one voted
against th's amendment; but they
had as {pnch right to oppose it as
we or the Statesman had to favor
it, and no doubt are as honest in
their Gonvictions as we dareclaim
to be. But tt-ese gentlemen have
one merit, witich tee Statesman
cannot claim, and that is that they
have not given their voice to make
the Texas Pacific subsidy a Demo-
crat measure, by giving the com
pany twelve months more time, in
, twbich. to lake their leisure to build
* railroad out of State, town and
county donations, that they may
live in the shade during their lives,
without any offer to lessen their
hold an iota upon these subsidies.

" The Statesman says tbat there are
436,000 acres of lands in Texas, not
rendered for taxation, because the
owners were unknown and this in
one county alone And it is stated
that there are 2,000,000 of acres of
lands owned by individuals in the
State, which are cot rendered for
taxes at all. It fa a great wrong that
a citizen who happens to live upon
his land, or one honest enough to
render what be owns for taxation,
should alone pay for the support of
the State government. TheLegielas
tare should paBS some stringent pro*
vieicni upon this subject, by which
every lot and acre of land shall bear
its proportion of taxation. Let this
be done and our Treasury will always
bave money in it.

The Late* ot Wealth,
It is useless for State Legislatures tc pass
laws for the preservation of tbe pablie
health, if the great law of self, preservation
which depends for its enforcement upon the
will of the individual, is suffered to remain
a dead letter. There is scarceLv an . adult
member of the community, of either sex
iu this country, who has cot seen the testi-
mony in favor of Hostettei's Stomach Bit-
ters, famished over their own signatures
by persons of acknowledged eminence in
science, literature, art, commerce, and
every department of business and profeg*
sional life. These witnesses have declared
in tbe ziost explicit«terms that tbe prepara*
tion is a safeguard against epidemics, a
sovereign remedy for dyspepsia, a valuable
anti-bilious medicine, a promoter of appe-
tite, a genial and harmless stimulant, a
good acclimating medicine, a 6trengthener
ot the nerves, a general ipvigorant, a pro-
tection against the deleterious eifecta of ma<
laria and impure water, and that it imparts
a degree of vigor and activity to the vital
forces which is not communicated by any
otb& of the tonics and stomachics in use.
Under these tircumstances the self~pi«ser-
vative law of nature stnald teach every
rational person who, either by reason of
inherent debility or in consequence of ex*
posure to unwholesome influences, is in
peril of losing the greatest of a:l temporal
blessings, health, the importance of T&iog
the Bitters as a defensive medicine. Dys-
peptics who neglect to give it a trial are
simply their own enemies. It is guaranteed
to cure indigestion in all its forms, and the
bilious and nervous will find nothing ia the
whole rauge of official and 'proprietary
medicines which will afford them the same
relief. mar'26deodiWlwE

Unaisputtd fact*
It has been truly and significantly said
tbat domestic happiness is more dependent
on good digestion than virtuous creeds or
moral codes. If the dogma holds, the ora-
cle can be consulted, by a prompt applica-
tion to Price, the Delphic author of the
Celebrated Aromatic Stomach Bitters.
Wherever, within the length and breadth
of the land, Price's Bitter? have penetrated
every household has been illumined by the
sunshine of an unclouded joy; and every
family revelled in the sweets of health and
contentment. The sparkling eye. tbe rud-
dy cheek, the cheerful smile and chappy
glance, no less than the elastic step and
the unfaltering tread, what are they but
the eloquent telltales of some vitalizing
elixir ? No secret Botany holds the charm,
no scientific alchemy creates the spell.
Tbe days of miracles are gone; the magic,
mysteriously working wonders, hare
passed away, and the age, a plain, practi-
cal one; give us a simple tonic, that, by a
happy amalgamation, restores to energy
and strength the enervated system. Take
"Price's Celebrated Aromatic Stomach
Bitters," and yon bid an eternal farewell
to such unwelcome guests as dyspepsia,
indigestion, nervousness, neuralgia, flatu-
lency and debility.
