" Cor inute than a quarter of a century a sectional
warfare bused upon hatred of the Institution of sla-
very has been waged by the North upon the South.
At the outset the mem tiers of this despicable organi-
sation were oontcmptiMo in number and in ii tellect
ami their fanatical treascnabe and atrocious pro-
mulgations were deemed lis lit subjects fur mirth in
both sections of the confederacy. At that timo each
State respee'ed its constitutional obligations the com-
ity of the respective sovereignties was maintained
bn therhord and good feeling prevailed well nigh uni-
versally all the South require now or wanted
then was the simple observance of the organic com
pact w hich was cheerfully rendered on nil sides tho
most beneficent syteinof government the o. rth oicr
knew when rightfully administered : a union of sov.
ereigiitiis under a confederated head armed with ex
presily delegated powers worked so beautifully and
harmoniously that It was the wonder and the admira
tion of the world. It grieves me to say that ibis hap
py picture has been changed ; that (lie small hand
of fanatics once only deemed fit pubjeets for laughter
h ive grown into a powerful organization ; that the
cloud once a mere speck unoii tho horiz'in has at
tinned such dimensions that it blackens Hit s.ies of
the majority section nf th" confederacy; that sover-
reign Mates through their Legislatures and Govern
or- havo passed laws which set at ilcnanee the Con-
stitution of the United States ; which nullify the laws
of Congress ; which trample under fo.t the decisions
of the Federal Court of last resort and which openly
contemn tho executive authority of the government
when exercised in strict conformity to the demands of
t'e Constitution. All this is (lone too without cause.

tSy" By an act of the Legislature of Florida free
negroes are excluded from that State ; nud by anoth-
er act a bill was passed prohibiting tho circulation or
incendiary documents.
If such documents nro really incendiary in their
character' and opposed to t he well being of the com-
monwealth why do not tho Northern States meet us
011 half way ground and prohibit their publication?
Theso documents all omanato from the great publish-
ing houses in the Northern cities and thenco scatter
ed like Ore brands broadcast throughout tho South
The legislatures uf the Southern States have passed
laws prohibiting their circulation. Now let the North
pas3 laws prohibiting their publication by a penal
enactment. ' Then we would have faith in their union
meetings and professions of devotion to constitution
al rights. If they menu what they say let their ac
tions show it ; and if they really disapprove aud con-
demn John Brownisin let them not return to their
legislatures and to Congress men of similar views
and similar politics. Strike at the root of the evil
and not lop off a few of tho most yig rous branches.
They will grow again anil be rejuvenated with fresh
vigor. If the Union !s what they profess to think it
let them enact laws for the punishment of offenders
against the peace and dignity of the general common-
wealth. The Romans knew of no sin greater or more
heinous than that against the Salut RcipuWea ; and
a slide from the Tarpcian Rock was the inevitable
doom of such offenders. The safety of tho Republic
was paramount to nil other considerations. When
the safety of our institutions is menaced by the citi-
zens let our Norlhoin sister States take tho matter
into their owu hinds aud protect the interest of oa
as well as the other. Then tho Uuion wjll be perpet-
uated and our glorious destiny be fulfilled. Let in-
cendiaries be punished at tho North and the South
w'J'iH? cre "Klr publications and their authors
too if they .be caught io pioir midst. ..
The first number of ' The White Man" cdi-
ed at Jacksboro by Messrs. Ilamncr & Worrell has
been received. The specimen bow on our tablo is a
ncat and well printed sheet. Its ed itorial columns well
filled with choice matter that would do credit to some
who have been longer at the business than it able
and gentlemanVy editors Messrs. Ilamncr & Worrell
are both men of ability decision and of enlargednesa
of thought - We opine that the White Man will t e
Democratic and devoted to th interest and welfare of
the frontier. . It name la a little singular Tout that
need not annoy the Executive in view of any Indian
proclivities that may yet perchance linger about him.
We gladly welcome the paper and wish it much
uoora in a field where talent and energy are so
much required. Dr. Worrel: Is one of the few who
composed "the Spartan band " of Jacksboro and
votedjthe Democratic ticket " lirniyht on" jHst

C. R Prtor Esq. Eniron D.u.ia IIkiui.u ;
Pear Sir: Having with many other of my fellow
citizens in giKsi faith tu tho South and our beloved
and glorious Union voted for Gen Sam lloitsto-i fur
Governor of the State uf Texaa : I believed him from
the light before me to be tho nearest right ot the
two opHsing candidates for the gubernatorial chair.
But Ukiii a cm rcful examination mid analysis of that
portion of his inaugural address tho General Assem-
bly of our Stale upon the Miliicc t uf Pomestiu Slit-
very in connection with the dillicu ties heietuforv
mid now existing between the North and South ttvon
that subject 1 tind language their.!! contained by
which sentiments nro expressed which I together1
Willi uiniiy other citizens ol this county am 1101 wn.
ling to endorso ; especially when General lluustou
near tho close of his inaugural u-es tho following
language to w it : " Regarding my election as nn en-
dorsement of the sentiment enunciated by mo when
I yielded my iinme to Hie people I shall feel n tho
representative of tho popular will un additional in-
centive to niako my administration accord with those
principle." Now. if anv such principles upon the
sulijeot in fiuestion a I find in Gov. Houston's inau
gural address were eiiunoiatud by him dining the
canvass for tho office of (fovcrnor (hey most certain-
ly escaped my notico ; for ii.omrodly had I kt.iwn
them as a truo Southern citizen 1 could not have
voted for him ; nor do I h.lievo a siitlicieut number
would have done so to havo elected him hud his sen
timents been generally known. I do not wish to pluk
a single laurel from the brow of tho Old Hero (for
wo all acknowledge ho has dune much for Texas) yet
1 for one and there are many others um not wil ing
to be placed in a false position before tho world ley
Gen. Houston or any other man us citizens of the
LoneStar State of this confederacy.
I know of no better plan than for tho citizens of
each county in the Statu to meet and have ntalk over
this matter ; and if we have been misrepresented and
p need in a false position say so emphatically. A
propitious time for tho citiens of Pullas county to
meet would bo sonic time during the pending billing
of our District Court ; nud I therefore propose it
and leave the in itter to be curried out by wiser heads
than mine if thought expedient. This you are at
liberty to publ sh if you deem it worthy a place in
tha Herald as I at least desire to lie s-jt right my
self. Yours Respectfully JOHN W. FLOYD.

SttSThe Pre-emptionists who voted overwhelming
ly for Gen. Houston and thought that one good turn
deserved another now find themselves in the condi
tion of the man who " reckoned " without his host
or the woman who counted her chickens before they
were hatched or like 0110 of old who sold his birth-
right for a mess of potago. That which mudo the old
General so unpopular during tho old Republic was
his prejudice against the pioneers of the country ; aud
this extraordinary veto which has alienated soldo of
the warmest perverts to his support for Governor is
only the revival of this old and incxplicablo feeing.
The Pre-emptionists are a worthy and respectable
ela's men who have Buffered Innumerable hard-
ships inured to toil and deprivations and who inly
wanted a little more time to meot their liabilities to
the State. Tho bill for their relief has fortunately
passed both houses over the veto of the immortal he-
ro of San Ju-sin-to.
CSyThe Pro-tern of tho Choctaw Herald (Foster's
paper) must be n model "'Jenkins" from the wny
he does up things about the elite of colored society
in Tishaniingo city. He happened to look in at a re-
union of Upper-tendom of "colored persons" and
thus describes the elaborate toilettes of some of the
distingue visitors: ' .
"Miss Cleopatra Amazonia Clinch was rigged out
in a blue cotton velvet roberfpa Circassian and
across her livid shoulders was "thrown a fine "Ky"
jeans malitilla a la Comanche! ; Ilerchcmisette was
made of red flannel ; and npon the wholo her cos-
tume m antique and tasty . In gliding tlirontrh the
ditned's giddy maze she eclipsed the grace of nn ele-
phant. Miss Cinderilla dc ridget Wliaiigd.svlle was
tho "observed of all observers' ' and was dressed like
a Pntawatamie bride in red oambrie trimmed vith
pink fringe: Upon her bosom she she wore a magnif-
icent breast-pin no ambrotype was incused therein.
Her graceful movements in the sirring dance cau
hardly be imagined much less described." ::
