does not seem to have any popularity even in
Texas. The Henderson (Tex.) Southern Bea-
con. the editor of which is q candidate for.the
Legislature, says:

prohibiting the African slave trade is impos-
sibie; the measure would be defeated by at
least four-fifths majority in the Southern
States, to say nothing of the Northern VOTE
This minority assuredly could not expect the
measure lngrafted upon the platform to be
adopted at Charleston in 1860. Such a move
ment would destroy every vestige of hope of
the success of the Democratic ticket which
may be brought forward by that body
