The latest New York dispatches state
that it is believed in Washington that there
is an unwillingness on the part of q portion
of the Cabinet to have JEFF LAWS tried for
treason, while there is reason for asserting
that the President is persistent to have him
brought before civil tribunal. 1t is said
that Chief Justice Chase is expected in a
few days for consultation as to the time and
place. 1t is also stated that the ablcst coun-
sci in the country are being consulted on
the subject.
For our own part, we do not believe, and
will not believe until We are compelled,
that it is President Johnson who persistent
ly seeks to make victim Of Mr.. Davis
Ono thing is certain; the party that is raj
lying in opposition to the President on a c.
count of his reconstruction policy, involv-
ing the States-rights and negro-suffragc
questions is the same party which 80 per-
sistcntly clamors for the degradation and
execution of Mr. Davis. And the President
has it in his power at once to rally all the
conservative men of the North, and the
whole South, to his support against the
factionists and disunionists of the radical
party, by treating his illustrious prisoner
unanimously, BY granting universal par
don to those excepted from the amnesty
and by allowing the late ''rebellious States'
at once to resume self-goyernment,-Hoas-

such review Mt all necessary, aud in that
history and those events few, very few in.
deed, are the names which stand more hon.
orably prominent than that Of John b.
Hood.
For many years though absent in person,
Gen. Hood has claimed Texas us his home,
and we as Texans have been proud to
claim him rs our own. lilo comes among
us now to share our destinies and our fate,
but he comes out Of arduous service, in
which for four years he has been engaged,
not merely impoverished, but manned with
wounds which have entirely deprived him
Of one limb, and disabled him from the
proper use OF another.
Thus ineapacitated for any exertion or
vocation; what is our duty TO such man
IF he ever wants home or comfort, the
reproach to us will be indeliable and eter-
nal,
This undertaking is initiated by few Of
his old time friends, who take this respon-
sibility. We conceive il to be debt wo
owe him, not gratuity.
II you, fellow citizens, actuated by those
honorable feeling, concur in the views We
have expressed, then meet at once in your
respective counties, put the subscription on
foot through proper instrumentalities, and
send the proceeds to Mcssrs. John s. Sell
lers & Co, Of Galveston Texas, Treasurer
who will acknowledge them through the
newspaper. A trifing contribution from
each and all of us will promptly effect the
purpose, though you need not limit your
subscription.
Having thus indicated to you the object
to be effected, and suggested the outlines Of
the plan proposed, we, your fellow citizens
of Bexar county, again solicit your ener-
getic cooperation.

To THE PEOPLE OF TEXAS.
Asa portion of your fellow citizens, we

efficient cooperation in providing for
Gen. John D. Hood, suitable homestead

We need not tell you who he is, for his

known, a. their commander upon many

more.
You need not our assurance Of the senti-
ments which pervsde the immortal Texas
Rripaden with regard 10 Gen. Hood. No
time can seperate their name from his, nor
obIiterats the fame Of their joint achieve

ing the amnesty oath. The oath, aswill be
seen, is TO be administered by board in
each county, to consist of the Chief JUS

Justice and either Clerk form quorum
The directions are ample, and we refer the
reader to the procismation itself. We pre-
sumo the Chief Justice will 60 to work at
once in the matter, and it is TO be hoped, rs
VIC believe will be the case, that the people
will avail themselves of the earliest oppor-
tunity of taking the oath. Due notice
will be given Of the time and place, when
and where, the oath will be administered
Our citizens should remember that no one
will be allowed TO vote for members Of the

"Anon," the New Orleans correspondent
Of the Telegraph, under date Of the 18th
August says;
Political affairs in this city are taking
daily more definite shape. The conserya'
tive Union party, as it calls itself, 10 grow
ing rapidly; that is to say, It's gaining as
adhcrents all the anti-radicals without re.
gard to old party distinctions. The persons
who engineered it at the beginning will
soon DO left in the lurch, and will find that
they will not be permitted to retain control
of a great organization.
The Mississippi Convention met yester-
day at Jackson-S1 members present. Judge
Yerger was chosen President. The Conven.
ton was entirely anti-radical, But ono
negro-suffrnge candidate was voted for in
the State-a man in Vicksburg who re-
ceived one vote, supposed to be his own.
Col. W. p. Johnston, son of the late Gen.
a. s. Johnston, and late Aid to Mr.. Davis,

In reply to numerous enquiries from
Texas, can state that all letters for Texas
received at this post Office up to last Tues
day have been returned to the Dead Letter
Office at Washington. The reason is, that
there is no mail service for Texas, and no
post office open in that State. Letters re-
ceiyed here since Tuesday, the Postmaster
has forwarded by private hand. The Adams
and Commercial Express Companies have
been taking and are still taking letters.
A reliable letter from Washington says
that the appointments for Texas are made
on the recommendation ST endorsement Of
Gov. Hamilton. Applicants for places
should bear this in mind.
