DIVISION OF TEXAs.

The project Of dividing Texas has been
common topic of discussion in the newspapers
of that State for the last two years. 1t is be-
lieved by many that the interests Of Eastern
and Western Texas cannot be provided for
Effectively by one Government, and it is alleged
that the representative power of the latter has
been used to the detriment of the former Tho
newspapers are not agreed in relation to the
proposed measure Some advocate il, with q
view to the advancement of certain local in
terests, and to the increase Of the political
power Of Slavery in the Senate of the United
States and some oppose it, rs they are ambi-
lio9s that Texas should become the empire
State Of the South, and Us they spprehend
that division of Texas now might lead to tho
organization ultimately of free State in the
West
The Columbia South Cat Gilman SAYS that
the advocates Of division are mostly in Eastern
Texas whore several papers are enlisted for
the measure.
The Houston Telegraph admits that the
scheme is rapidly gaining adherents. 1t opposes
it, urging that if there should be division OF
the State, a. proposed into Eastern and West
ern Texas, there would be great danger Of the
western section becoming free State; which
tho Telegraph thinks would much depreciats
the value Of slave property in Eastern Texas

senate refused to act upon it then and will not
