SENATOR SOULE-The Louisiana Dem
ocrat thus remarks upon the appointment
made by Senator Soule TO speak at O1,e-
lousas:
This movement is bad one-a wretch.
ed one. Mr.. Soule. in the present state
Of public opinion, far and near, can do
good, and Is certain to do much harm
His views are ultra, and Indirect opposi-
tion TO those held and expressed by Gen.
Downs, aud majority, an overwhelming
majority, o. the people Of this district
The cnly object he can have in view,
and the only object those have in view
who have prompted this outrageously
foolish step, is TO make a direct issue
with Gen. Downs, almost upon the eve
of All election, which must go against US,
II we permit the Wings to hold US re-
sponsible for what will undoubtedly fall
from his Mr.. Soule's) lips. We tell him,
therefore. and we tell his friends to leave
us alone IN the battle. Ii we are TO be
damned we do not want the Senator'S
name to the edict. God knows we will
have enough to combat, without having
to defend the Senator'S peculiar views,
that have been condemned by all the
master spirits of Democracy in Louisiana

The TEXAS DEBT.-Mr. Corwln, Sec
retary of The Treasury, has officially an
nonnced 10 Gen. Hamilton (agemt for
the committee Of The creditors Of Texas)
that the President Of the United States
has made his decision in regard to the
Texas debt Only FIVE millions of stock
can be issued to the State of Texas until
the releases required by the act Of the
9th Of September, 1850. the Texas Boun-
Diary act,) be filed in the Treasury De-
dartment for all that portion of the said
debt which was issued prior TO January
14th, 1910. ''.t'
Also, that all issues of Texas bonds,
certificates, stock or notes. which were re-
ceivable for all public dues, are the claims
for which duties on imports are pledged,
within the meaning Of the act, aud that
releases of al! such claims must be filed
in the Treasury Department Of the United
States, before the Treasury will be justifi-
ed in delivering the reserved five millions
of stock to the authorizes of Texas.

JEcT OF SLAvERY.-GeneraL CasS to
Senator Clemens. The Huntsville (Ala.) J
Advocate says:
ave have been permitted to make
the following extract from a private let
ter OF General Cass to Col. Clemens. 1t
is strongly confirmatory of the other ac-
counts OF the great change going on at
the north upon the subject of slavery,
which we ale constantly receiving
And there is better feeling at the north,
and though fanalicism will talk and
write, still there is just as little probab;li-
ty of our interfering with your slaves,
as there Is OF your interfering with our
houses and lands"

A MASSACRE MoNUMENT.-It is pro-
posed in New York, to erect monument
in honor of the Americans massacred at
Havana. Several large subscriptions
have been offered for this purpose. One
gentleman offers $4,000, on the condi-
ton that $4,000 more shall be sub.
scribed. From two gentlemen, jointly,
on the same condition, $4,000. From
another $4,000, without condition, and
a pledge to raise as much more from
few friends. From few Cuban exiles,
$1,000. We see nothing reprehensible or
very patriotic in this movement. If a
subscribtion had been made for the sur
viving relatives Of the deceased, some of
whom have wives and children, it would
have suited our notions of what is beney.

TEXAS BONDHOLDERS.-A meeting Of
the creditors of the State Of Texas was
held, between twelve and one o'clock
yesterday afternoon, a; the National
Hotel. 1t was nunerousy attended. r.
Smith. Esq, of Washington, was called
to the chair. Tie committee, consisting
of Messrs. j. w. Houston, James Hamil-
ton, and Charles Ellis, appointed in
February last, presented their report on
the subjects entrusted TO them, ha wing in
view the settlement of the Texas debl
on basis which should be Just and
liberal, and, if possible, mutually satisfac-
tory to both parties. The resolutions,
we learn from a gentleman who was
present, recommended that it be proposed
TO Texas TO pay 10 her creditors seven
of the ten millions received by her from
the United States, reserving tmee for
other purposes, and to pay the remainder
of her Indebtedness (,ix miiions) from
the proceeds of the sale of her public
lands; the principle of distribution 10 be
arranged hereafter among the creditors.
These resolutions. we further learn,

which they were iaid upon he table, as

WILD CAT AND RUNAWAY NEGROES
The following Is from the Houston (Tex-
as) Telegraph of late date:
Mr.. w. Secrest, who has recently WIS.,
tied the Mexican towns in the vicinity
of Eagle Pass, has Informed us that the
statement we published few weeks
since in regard to the runaway negroes
that have collected in those towns, is en-
tirely correct. He says that he was in-
formed that no less than two hundred
and seventy runaWays crossed tie ferries
at Eagle Pass and Laredo last year
Several hundred also crossed the fords
above Eagle Pass 1t is estimated that
there are not less than eighteen hundred
runaWays at the town that has lately
been built by Wild Cat near the mouth
OF Los Moras. ........
The greater part of these runaways
have escaped from Arkansas, - but at least
five hundred are, it is said, fugitives from
Texas. Wild CAT has large number Of
negroes armed, and they often accompa-
nv him OH his expeditions against the
Comanches. He has made two success.
ful forays into the Comancbe country
On one of these forays he had about two
hundl ed Indians and one hundred negro
warriors. He attacked a large Conan
che lodge, killed one hundred and fifty
warriors, and captured over six hundred
horses and mules. On his second eXpe-
diton against the Comanches, he was
accompanied by one hundred Mexicans
and arge party of Kickapoos.
Several hundred horses and mules
were captured. but the Mexicans claimed
the lions share of the spoil, and this so
