SIoSIFIcAST EVENT IN TExAs-Ex Cox
GRESHAM HAMILTON ELECTED TO THE STATE
SENArE.-Various sources Of information
from Texas Indicate the unpopularity of So
cession, aud Of the wish on the part Of thou
sands Of citizens to live under the stars and
stripes. Elsewhere the position assumed
by Governor Houston is alluded to with
the preparations 10 progress to reinstats
the authority Of the General Government
in Texas. Some Of the employees Of the
Overland Mail Company, who have passed
through ST. Louis, state that the people
are decidedly opposed to secession, and will
rally to the support Of Governor Houston,
or any other leader who will sustain the
Union. 1t will be remembered that several
days ago, old San Jacinto aud Hon. Al.
Hamilton, late M, O, from Texas, made
speeches at Austin, denouncing TIE State
Convention Ho (Hamilton) is said to
baFe used language unsurpassed 10 bold
ness and 6erceness. He proclaimed bis In
tention to denounce the Convention until
the asurpers should make speaking crime.
Hamilton dared them to refer the Mont.
gomery Constitution to The people The
most significant event, however, Is yet to
come. A few days after this remarkable
speech-remarkable for the circumstances
under which it was delivered-a vacancy
occurred IN the Texas State Senate, where
upon the Union men brought out Hamilton
and elected him by large majority. This
was in counties which gave Brcckinridge
nearly thousand majority; and what IS
more significant Il was where the people
daily see and feel the workings Of reyolu-
tion.
