~ Accounts from Texas seem to show a
very hostile state of feeling between the Mex
leans and Americans on the border Gov
Houston's special messenger to Washington
reports that large numbers of evil disposed
persons have gathered on the from
tier, and that an outbreak seems inevitable.
Should the Mexican treaty be rejected, and
the internecine war in Mexico be, by that ac-
ton on the part of the Senate, prolonged
then there is strong probability of border
conflict between the Texans and Mexicans
which may result in general war irvolvins
the whole country

CO ALI the Democratic papers in the State
have endorsed the nomination of Hon. HENRY d.
FOSTER for Governor, in ably written edit:rial
articles. The Democracy in every section of the
State are delighted at the result Never has a
nomination in this State been received with so
much enthusiasm and lnanimity. Even the
most ultra Black Republican papers acknowledge
that the Democracy have nominated their strong
est man, and that he will be hard to beat Ills
nomination secures a Democratic victory next
October, which will render victory in the great
contest in November certain. Pennsylvania will
be right for Foster in October and right for the
nominee of the Charleston Convention in Novem-
Der. She desPises the harsh and discordant mu-
sic of the dsunionists, and is determined in 1850
as in 1856 to "carry the flag and keep step to the

ORGANIZE.

The opposition party of Pennsylvania al
ready actively engaged in organizing for the ap-
preaching campaign. The Democracy should
initiate their example. 1t is not too soon now to
commence the good work. An early and eff
cient organization will render victory certain.
W Without it may be defeated.
As in 1856, Pennsylvania will be the battle
ground in the great struggle next fall, and the
result in October will Enthusiastically foleshadow
the result in November. If Foster is elected the
contest will in reality be over. 1t will be a vic
tory as overwhelming and discisive as that of
General Washington over the British at York
town. The opposition will at once give up the
contest in despair. Under these circumstances,
the Democracy of Pennsylvania feeling the weight
of the responsibility resting on them should at
once prepcre for the proper discharge of the i'm
portant and responsible duties which as Ameri-
can citizens is about to deyolve on them.
The task of organizing for the campaign should
not be coIlfded entirely to those who are regar-
dcd the active politicians of the party. Every
| Democrat should lcork in the neighborhood in
which he resides. Democratic Clubs should be
organized in every election dis 'rict Of the State.
and documents defending and explaining the
principles of the party should be extensively cir
culated at as early day as possible. Now is
| the time to produce an impression and convince
honest and patriotic members of the opposition,
that their party is sectional, anti ti-Republican
Disunion organization. 1t will be a difficult
matter to do this during the excitement of the
campaign. The course we have indicated would,
certain, if rightly carried out, do more to
render victory certain than Mass Meetings, Pole
Raisings and Stump Speeches.
