TExAs-The great victory achieved by the
secessionists at a recent election of delegates
in this State, happened in the most natural way
possible. Nobody but secessionists voted. 1t
was q select affair of their own, gotten up be.
fore Governor Houston convened the Legisla.
ture to meet on the 22d instant. 1t is not
probable that any Convention of these recently
elected delegates will be held, but if SO, so much
the better, as secession will then have assumed
the form of an internal revolution, with which
Governor, Houston will be able to cope.
Nothing can be done in Texas under legal
forms, except in pursuance of some act of the
Legislature now in session for the assembling
of Convention, and we infer from Governor
Houstons letter to the Alabsmn Commission
ers, that he will not recognise the action oi
even such a Convention, until it is submitted to
the people and ratified by them.
There is undoubtedly a severe struggle going
on in Texas, but our information is, that the
Union party, headed by that sterling old Jack
son patriot, Governor Houston, will triumph
in the end. =

NORTHERN MANUFACTURES AND
THE CRISIS

While the Southern editors are amusing them.
selves with fancy sketches of the gloom which
they say gives a funereal air to all our work
shops and factories, it will not be out of place
to give few facts concerning the state of af.
fairs in one city, that of Pittsburg, Pennsylva.
MIA. In two hundred and twelve manufacturing
establishments there operating, there are at
this day employed very nearly 1000 people
in fact, lO,967. Adding to this number the
hands employed in the railways, it brings the
total up to l2,267s The monthly pay of these
people amounts to nearly half a million of dol
lars-considerably more than the entire revenue
of some of the seeding States. This enumera.
ton does not include hands employed in tan.
neries, distileries, builders, painters, gasftters,
marble.cutters, backsmiths, or in many other
workshops, but is intended as a sufficiently
full illustration Of the slight effect which the
secession of the South has on the manufac.
turing interests Of the North. AS is the case
with Pittsburg, so it is with other places.

FREIGHTs.-At New Orleans, January 26,
cotton freights to Liverpool had run up to a
penny and an eighth, being more than double
IL profitable rate for ships. There was scar.
city of tonnage, arising, in great degreey pn.
doubtedly, from apprebensions of trouble, which
have deferred owners from sending ships to se-
ceding ports. At Mobile, freights were one
quarter of a cent higher, in ships which had
taken out their clearance papers before the
Alabama act of secession, than in other ships.
This rise in freights is just SO much money
taken out of the pockets of planters, for the
benefit of Maine and other navigating States.
This freight of penny and an eighth, will make
secession popular in New England.
