More of the Abolition work in Texas

. Late advices from Texas show that the in
cendiaries are still at their fiendish work o
murder and revolution. The Austin Stat
Gazette publishes cory of a letter signed w
Il. Bailey, who appears to be one of the lead
ers of the abolition gang in Northern Texas
Ii real, it affords = clue to the late outraees
there, and will enable the citizens to thwar,
and punish the conspirators
DENTON CREEK, July 3, 1860.
4 DEAR SIR: A painful ahscess on my right
i thumb, is my apology for not writing at An
i derson. Our glorious cause is progressing
finely as far South as Brenham. I there
parted with Bro. Wempler; he went stiTf fur
ther South; he will do good wherever be goes
/ Travelled up through the frontier counties

| found many friends who had been initiated,
| and understand the Mystic Red. | met with
good number of our friends near George
town; we held a consultation, and were unan-
lmousiy OF opinion that We should be cautious
oil our new associates; most of them are deS-
perate characters and may betray US as there
are shareholders among them, and value poor
negro much higher than a horse. The Only
good they will do us will be destroying towns
mills, &c, which is our only hope in Texas at
present. If we can break Southern mer-
chants and millers and have their places filled
by honest Republicans. Texas will be an easy
prey, if we only do our duty. All wanted for
the time being is control Of trade. Trade, as
sisted by preaching and teaching, will soon
control public opinion. Public opinion ia
mighty, and will prevail. Lincoln will GER
eiSnly be elected; we will then have the In |
dian Nation, cost what it WILL Squatter SOW !
eregnty will prevail there as it has in Kan
sas; that accomplished, we have at least one |
more step to take-but one more struggle to |
make-that is, free Texas We will then |
haveA connected link from the Lakes to the |
Gulf Slavery will then be surrounded bv |
land and by water and soon sting itself to
death. | repeat, Texas we must have. and
our only chance is to break up the present
inhabitants in whatever way we can and it
must be done. Some of t.s will most assured
ly suffer in accomplishing orr object, but our
Heavenly Father will reward US for assisting
him in blotting out the greatest curse on
earth. 1t would be impossible Tor US to do an
act that is as blasphemous in the sight Of God
IS holding slaves. We must have frequent
consultations with our colored friends. Iet
your meetings be in the night) Impress
upon their clouded intellects the blessings of
reedom, induce all to leave you can; our ar
-angements for their accommodation to 90
North are better than they have been, but not
IS good as would like. We need more
gents, both local and travelling. l will send

VIII have to reproye you and your CO work
rs for your negligence in sending funds to r
ur agents; but few have been compensated 4
'r their trouble. Our faithful correspondent 7

eived but q triae, not so much as appren- /
