FROM TIE 49ru .. V. 1.-The
following letter we find in the last num-
Der of the Fostoria NEws. 1t is dated
San Aantonia, Tex 5, October 9th. 1860:
presmc you have
looked for us at home ere this. We ex-
pcclcd, aud had right to expect, that
we would be out two or three months ago.
We are aot needed here now. did not
object to coming to Texas, but now that
we have accomplished the object for
which we were sent, we think'wc should
be mustered out. In addition to the
wrong Of being unjustly retained, It is an
enormous and unnecessary expense to
support such force as we have here and
in sch a place as this. The men all
feel thu; they should be at home, and are
very much dissatisfied. 1t is impossible for
any officer or OH; ;cers to enforce anything
like proper discipiine under such circum'
s,auces. / think the blame is not in the
War Department. but in smaller bronch
of the military arm.
Lam not very favorably impressed " itE'
either the country or the people OF Texas
It is a fne country TO emigratc from, and
u good one to emigrate TO when fleeing
from justice. San Antonin is by far the
mos, likely city have seen, Having about
six thousand inhabitants, and composed o
Spanards, French, Dutch, Mcxicans ant
WHITES. They are a rough, sporting
people. Sabbath is generally devoted tc
dancing, drinking, cock fighting, horse
racing aud gambling. The Mcxican'
are generally very in5olent art
very illiterate people. The sol
along the river bottoms is general,
fertile--iuland is very barren aud dry
aud almost an unbroken prairie. Tht
heat during August and September wat
very oppressive. The nights arc nov
getting cooler and the mornings and eve
nings are pleasant. Yours Truly, p

JEFF. Davis CAPTURE,

Major General J. Fl. WILSON has written
private letter, that has found its way
into the newspapers, containing an account
Of the capture Of JEFF. DAVIS, which does
not differ materially from the official dis
patches; but the following concerning his
reception of Mr.. DAVIS is interesting:
After dinner received Mr.. Davis at nv quar-.
ters. Our conversation was mostly about West
Point, the army, the surrender of Dick TAYLOR.
the assassination of Mr.. Lincoln, and the iour-
ney north. During the conversation he
brought in his little son jeff and introduced
him: He remarked with q smile that
he thought that the United States would find
graver charges against him than the murder of
Mr.. Lincoln. and seemed to regret that Mr..
Lincoln had been killed. He has asked no IA
yors, but Mrs D. insinuates once in o while
that the President" is not treated with be-
coming dignity. Upon one occasion she said
to Col Pntchard, that she ba6--r..Ss@ Na.1
whenever the President nouce.t the
guards had their gums cockep ouss ,,non
Colonel Pitchard told her the W nssreno not
cooked, only halfcocked, but hisqs VIZ ga nr-
ders to shoot Mr.. Davis II he made YEN ~.
TO escape, and would certainly execha ~. ~ or.
aer. Among other things, Davis I'D he
thought Lee one of the boldest Gene.1s Of
whom he had any knowledge-never NEEDED
urging. This was in comparison with John
ston, OF whom his silence was marked.

nizing that right, he tells them that those who
oppose them are usurpers and impostors-thus
Giving the negroes the cue TO engage in riots
and Instructions in the face and teeth of the
administration. What else can suGh teaching
lead to but bloody social war between the
races in the South? .GF,. "a
There could be but one result II the class re-
ferred to attempted to follow the direction,
Such advice would be considered an effort to
justify the negroes to resist all who endeavored
10 prevent their exercising the elective fran
chise. Senator Sumner has just as much right
to counsel the negroes in this State on that
point as he has those Of North Carolina or any
other Southern State iiEa @a p. i'l
Let Chief Justice Chase and Senator Sumner
therefore, beware how they handle edged
tools, or they may find themselves held re-
sponsible for relentless, sanguinary, social
war. i... ~.a - 2s'-- .-tO .,...' :" J - O.
This movement of Megsrs. CHASE and
SUMNER ought to convince every thinking
man that the radicals never intend to cease
agitating and disturbing the country. They
are not satisfied with the adjustment of
slavery, neither would they be content
with the Acknowledgement OF every negro
at the South. Perfect social equality, en-
forced by law, coupled with miscegena-
ton, would come next in order, and every
man who opposed these progressive
movements would be branded as a min
ion of slavery and foe to the human race.
We trust there is enough healthy conserv-
atism even in the Republican party to
check these mad schemes OF the radicals.
If there is pot, the country may as well be
given up to anarchy at once. ~ .--

STANTON.

The repetition Of the rumor received
several days ago that the boorish tyrant
st the head of the War Department is
about TO tender his resignation will be re-
ceiyed with universal qualification through
ont the length and breadth of the republic.
There is no man connected with the Adj
ministration so thoroughly detestel by all
parties as EDWIN NJ STANTON. With the
exception of a few born toadies and camp
followers like JonN ". FoRNEY, there is
not a man in the nation SO poor in spirit
as to do him reverence" His bullying,
brow-beating propensities, bis insutferable
self-esteem, his despotic viii, and tyran,
nical exercise Of power, were tolerated By
Mr.. LINCOLN, for some reason beyond the
comprehension of the country. In ANDY
JOHNSON, however, be found a man to
whom his believing was but idle wind
His assumption of dictatorial functions was
met at once with reply that convinced
him that his occupation was gone, and SO
he made haste to resign. Dir. JoHNsoN
deserves the gratitude of the country fer
squelching The monster.

Irish Immigration.

Ireland is still a prolific country, if we
may judge Of the numbers remaining. with
the number of emigrants from that coun-
try to all other countries. The departures
had diminished from III, 2SO in 1863 to
114,093 in 1864. Of the latter u 500,
or more than half, were males, and the
majority, or 60 per cent, were in theprime
of life. With all this We are assured that
labor is not yet too scarce In Ireland, nor
do the productions of the country suffer
from diminution Of the supply. 1t is said
In comparing the last two years, emigration
has had no appreciable effect in throwing land
out of cultivation, the number of acres Weld.
ing crops in 1863 have been several thousand
more than in the previous year. From ali
this it is argued that Ireland is not on the
retrograde-that the voluntary departure of
the surplus population will give q better
chance to those who remain, on account Of the
removal of competition, and that more pros
porous days are at hand.

Ex-PREs1DESr BUCHANAN has written
another letter to the New York Tribune
in relation to the Cincinnati Convention.
1t contains no points Of interest, except
that, in declining the 7ri6xne's proffered
use of its columns for him to defend him
self, he says: "This kind offer should be
cordially accepted; but, admonished by
advancing years, of which you give warn
ing, / some time since compiled q history
of it during this period, chiefly from the
proceedings of Congress and other official
and reliable documents, too long for pub
LEGATION in the Tribune. This has not
been published hitherto, because of my re-
luctance, for several reasons, to intrude
myself upon public attention during the
prosecution of the war, now happily ter
minated in the suppression OF tie re-
bellion.''

WinoGa and st. Peter Railroad,

The citizens of Winona and along the
line of the Winona and St. Peter Railroad
are indignant, and justly SO, at the suspen-
sion of labor on the road and at the slim
prospect of its resumption this year. The
Republican says:
We look upon the corporation as contract
ors with the State. If they feel unable or uu-
willing to fulfill their engagement they ought
to give place to Others, who can push the
work, and not allow project of so much in
terest to our State to languish on from year to
year, just to suit the convenience of few New
York capitalists.
We have the company charter before us, and
according to its provisions we find that, this
year, they are bound to construct 80 miles of
road westward from Rochester. In order to
hasten the completion of this enterprise, and
thereby give to the people of this State rail-
road facilities at as early day as possible, this
through the State very liberal grant of lands
more than sufficient to pay for the entire
road. IA addition they have also donated to
them by the State some sixty miles of old
grading, reaching from Winona to o point
some eleven miles west Of Rochester, portions
of which, (particularly in the bluffs) this COM
pany had to finish. In consideration of such
UNUSUAL privileges lucy a&r0eO 70 8u0 8CC6pt0u
the terms named in their charter.
The only way to get railroads in this
State is to hold the various companies
to strict fultilment of the conditions IN
der which they acquired the respective
land grant roads; and they cannot be too
often reminded that the patience of the
people, for whose benefit the grants were
made, will not endure forever. Their pre-
decessors failed to fulfil their contracts
with the State and the forfeiture was ex-
acted at once. 1t is not improbable that
the non-performance of later contracts
will involve similar results.
