Peter Ellis Bean to Gov. Cass, Secretary of War of the United States, dated Feb. 24, 1883, together with .he intelligence which accompanies it.

ayerring their consistency, they venture to impeach ours. We once, of late, challenged the Gazette to name the men who have chan ged. We challenged 1t to point out the in consistency of the Advocate. Why does it not give chapter and verse? And these puis- sant correspondence What do they utter which is new1 If the Gazette would repub- fish the communications of Terence Farrelly, published in the last volume of the Advocate, 1t would find all said and urged, in few words, which the correspondents of the Ga zette would expend quart of ink upon. They are only urging again the very argu- ments often and again urged in the Advocate. If the Gazette can clear it's own skirts of inz consistency, we are glad of it--but why ac- cuse us or our friends of it! The consistency of the Gazette in this matter is like it's con- sistency with respect to Governor Fulton and no doubt its devotion to the cause of State Government is as ardent as it's adora- tion of the Governor.
 " v hoF1 o1ly Io soy ILldI We 0FG III ldVOT of State Government, as warmly ds ever. The advantages of 8 change have been urged upon the people, and that right often, in our columns. They are still open to it's discus- sion-and if reasons are urged against it, re- qulring an answer, we do not shrink from the contest. At present we have nothing to say to the talented writers in the Times-we shall leave them to be answered by the equal ly talented writers in the Gazette. The flag of State Government waved over our paper, when the new converts were yelling loudly against 1t. It IS still here. Under it we fight, and by it we stand or fall + others please to range themselves under 1t, they are welcome. New converts are always over jealous, and we accordingly expected great noise and an overflow of loyalty from our re- cent auxiliaries. Ifa majority Of the people should be against State Government, their new sprung valor and zeal would be nipped in the bud--but be it as 1t may, we shall still fight under the same fag-as contented in as in a majority.

It seems grievously to astonish some of the
 Correspondents of the Gazette, that we have
 aot kept up constant clamor about State Government. If some of them, who are ma king a great noise and expending much wind to no purpose, and without much sense, would follow our example, many of their readers might sing 7'e Dsan. for their forbearahce. To say truth, we have been too much amused with the mannuyres Of the Gazette, and the satellites who figure as brilliantly us SC many farthing candles in its columns, to in. terfere with them.

The last Gazette contains an attempt to ex- onerate Col. Sevier from the charge of in- consistency made against him, with refer enee to his course concerning State Govern ment, including extracts from his Circular of 1881, his letter of December, 1883, and his Circular of 1885.
 The Gazette states that Col. Sevier was opposed to taking steps for entering into State Government, in 1881, 'sbecause we had neither the population to entitle us to admis- sion, under the Representative ratio, nor the resources from which to raise revenue to support the increased expenses of State GoYernment.' Now, were these his only reasons! He says in that Circular, "could we present ourselves to Congress for admis- sion into the Union with fifty thousand souls, 1t would be, in our present situation, a ques- ton fgrave consideration whether we should accept of State Government or not. ; What were the reasons which induced this opinion9 They are, as stated in that Circu- lar, that ''we are taxed high, and deeply in debt.o Are we not moro in debt now than we were then! 'FThat we receive, as a Ter fltory, many things from the General Govern ment, which we could net receive as a State.'' Is that objection removed! "That we could obtain no appropriations for roads or works of internal improvement 3 Has new construction been given to the constitu- tion on that subject! That tour representa- tion in our Legislature is more numerous than that of many ofthe States, and as numerous as 1t would be if we were State. That sstheir privileges and powers are as great as those of any members of any State Legisla- ture. That 'sthey receive their pay from the General Government. That "our taxes are high, and our Territory is in ebt."- That s'the expenses of our judiciary are sad died upon the General Government. .''--That i've are taxed beyond endurance. .'-That sswe have more freedom as we are, than many of the citizens of South Carolina, of Louisiana, and Virginia These were his reasons poor reasons we grapt-but as good now as
 were then.

 pleading. He said, "WHEN WE
 DEBf--when we have the popu-
 the means to support State Gov
 .aent." These were his words Are we out of debt! If not, did not the Delegate forfeit his pledge by the move he made at Washington!
 Letit not be supposed that we are opposed to State Government. The reasons existing for the measure two years ago, were enough for us. They are enough for us now The Advocate has ever been compounded on this inatter-and so have its friends. We have not deserted our post--but we see no enemies to attack. Sufficient arguments have been urged in our paper upon the people. It's of no use to be always beating the "drum eccle- siastie' or political.

'tSome time within the course of the last winter, some five or six chiefs from the old Creek Nation in Georgia, headed by Apoth- Ieyahola, and under the conduct of white man by the name of Dubois, visited Ma cogdoches, the chief town of the Eastern Deparment of Texas. After spending a few days, they were joined by Benjamin Hawkins, quadroon Creek, who had re- gently emigrated from the Creek Nation on the Arkansas river. to Texas.
 ssFrom Nacogdoches they commenced a trip of exploration towards the sources Of the Sabine and Trinity rivers, where 1t seems they were much pleased with the country, and concluded to possess 1t, If possible. T'ihe lands which they selected, were once included in grant made to Gen. Felasola, by the Mexican Govern ment on certain conditions, none of which have been complied with on his part, and of course 1t IS now void.
 ''The grant was to commence fifteen leagues or forty-hve miles north of Nacog- doches, and would run north and west for complement. On the return of the Chiefs to Nacogdoches, they through Hawkins, communicated to Col. Bean, a wish to set tie in Texas, when they were promptly as- sured 1t could not be done, as 1t was con- trary to the relations and treaties existing between the two Republics. Not satisfied with the assurances of Col. Bean to the contrary of their wishes, they by means oi Hawkins, opened negotiation with cer- tain captain Archibald Hotchkiss, Agent oi the New York Company, who are engaged in colonizlng the grants made to Burnett,
