g&5@ After the speaking, on Saturday last
by the Candidates, (Messrs. Chambers, for
Governor and Motfett for the Legislature
Brig. Gen. r. NJ. Gnno addressed the citi.
zens of this place briefly on the Importance
Of as thorough an organization for homa
defence as possible. He was very happy in
his remarks and was at,entiyely listened
to and loudly cheered at the conclusion. lie
stated that he wished to raise 10000 csval.
ny for the State defence, and for this pllr.
ros" he hoped that all who could possibly
DO SO, in the militia, would mount and arm
themsclves. We believe Gen Gano has the
entire confidence of the people of Texas,
and his long and successful service under
the leadership Of Gen. Jno. II. Morgan,
gives an assurance Of his capacity and dar-
ring.
The following paragraph is from the Ty-
Ter Reporter Of the 30th:
We feel very certain TINT Oens. Smith,
Masruder aud Gano were not idle in the
consultation held few days ago at Rusk,
and while we do not profess to know what
transpircd during that consultation, we
feel safe in assuring the people that plans
have been laid and schemes concocted which
need only the prompt support Of the citi-
zens 10 make ,hGm amply sufficient for
whatever emergencies may arise. These
plans and schemes will of course, be devel-
oped when occasion requires. We may
mention one thing which was greed upon,
and which phases us well that Gen. Gano
has been placed in command of the cavalry
in Texas, and that TO be organized. We
have not met an officer since the war began
who inspired us with more perfect conf
dence than he, and we feel sure that no one
could have been found with whom Texans
would prefer to serve or whpm they would
rather have to lead them TO battle. In
brief address here, he explained it to be
his purpose TO perfect an efficient cavalry
force of ten thousand men. This he expects
to do from the militia now organizing. all
Of whom he prefers as cavalry This, we
are assured is Gen. Magruders preference,
also; and we must regard il wise one, for
If we experience invasion in Texas at all,
1t is natural lo-suppose that it will come
principally, il not altogether, in the shape
Of cavalry raids, and nothing but cavalry
on our part will be effectual against 1t. Gen
Gano is an experienced cavalry officer,
WHOSE gallantry has been too often and
severely tested TO admit Of question, and
more than twelve months experience with
the dashing and ever successful John II.
Morgan, in bis expeditions in Tennessee,
Hentueky and elsewhere, has well fitted
II IN for the position he is about 10 assume
Iere. With Smith, Magruder and Gano 10
command, and a willing spirit on the part
bf the people, Texas may yet proudly shake
herself like a lion, and defy the insolent
foe to the contest.

Gen. COOper's Fight,

We have many conflicting rumors for thu
past week or two in regard TO Gen. Coop.

and most reliable account seems 20 be that
Cooper reiterated after u hard tight aga inst
largely superior numbers, about 20 miles.
Subsequently he was joined by Gen Steel,
with his command, and the Fedcrals fell
back to Fort Gibson, Cooper resuming his
former position at Honey Springs. The
following is an extract from private let
ter to the editor dated at Bonham, on tho
