Tho Speaking

Agreeable to previous notice, n LARGE collcc-
ton Of tho citizens Of our county assembled nj
the courthouse ON yesterday, for the purpose
Of hearing nom the several candidates their
views on the various questions likely TO come
before the next Legislature. w. Hess Jones,
Esq, candidate for tho Senate, was the first to
occupy the stand. He spoke for about forty
minutes, and gave at full length his views rel.
ativc to public schools, railroads, the State
debt, and other important questions that will
engage thca attention Of tho next Legislature.
Col. c. Kyle, of Hays, also a candidate for the
Senate, replied in n speech OF about twenty
minutes. His views differed but little from
those advanced by his opponent. S. II. Oar.
den and Benjamin Weeks, Esqrs., candidates
to represent Gonzales county in tho lower
branch of the Legislature, next spoke, and
each gave, in a simple but concise manner, his
views and opinions concerning all questions of
q general and local character.
An unusual degree of courtesy was mani
tested by tho candidates toward each other,
and thcy not only acquitted themselves with
credit, but, We believe, gave full and ample
satisfaction to their respective friends and
hearers. After tho discussion, the crowd nd.
Journcd to the beautiful grove in tho rear Of
tho court.honsc, and there partook heartily
OF n substantial rcpast that had been pre-
vionsly prepared for the occasion.
1t was our intention to give a report of the
speeches, but to do this and do them Justice,
would have infringed too much upon our
space. Consequently wo have been reluctant
~ compelled to give them only u passing no
ticc.

cay II will be seen by reference to tho
communication of b., this week, that he does
not agree with a statement Of the height OF
tho mercury Of tho thermometer, published
by us in our first number. We were not
however mistaken. The thermometer really
stood at 100, but the room in which il hung is
probably more exposed to the combined heat
of the sun and the reflection from the sandy
street in front than any o;acr place in town,
and this cannot of course loo considered n fair
test of the general heat. Since then we have
kept u regular table ourselves, and at no time

Our INDIAN RELATioSs.--It will be seen. nv
referring to the circulars of the various candi-
dates for office, now before the people, that tho
public mind is awakening to the Importance
of immediate action on this subject.
That unfortunate race Of people cannot but
excite our sympathics, although they have
been our unrelenting foes, for tho brave al
ways compassionate n fallen enemy. II was
the noblest boast Of the Romans, in their best
days, that they were mcrciful to a yanaujshed
Toe. Tho Indians have been driven from their
ancient homes and robbed Of their faircst DOS
sessions. Every year their limits arc mr.
rowed-their game destroyed, and starvation
and hnnl extinction stare them in tho face.
Yet wc are not to blame tho white man too
severely. IL is nothing moro than the march
OF destiny. Humanity cannot stop tho pro-
grcss oil civilization. II is irresistible as tho
majestic torrent Of our own Mississippi.
What, then, is TO bc doncp Perhaps tho
best course which Texas could adopt would BIO
to cedc q portion of our northwestern territory
to the General Government, In which 10 re-
move our Indians, there 10 continc them, and
teach them, as far MS possible, the arts Of civ.
iliscd life.
II has been suggested that In considcra.
lion, aud as n mode Of compensation for such
a cession of territory by Texas, tho General!
Government would he willing IL construct a
railroad through this State ta III Paso. This
We think entirely rrehsblc. for several rcasons.
The Government needs such a Rad for the
transportation of troops and munitions cf war.
II is the only way in which they can suppress
Indian dcpfviatiens II would ~cl,yiaic tho
