Hon. B. II, Epperson,s Position.

We have n private letter from Mr.. ZIP.
person, but We can not refrain from making
an extract from II, as il shows his position
with reference to that address;
~ WILL Not suffer myself placed upon the
tail end IF the Hamilton party ticket AN
40 RADICAL But you know
my views and feelings. am no
candidate for Lieut.. Governor upon the
Pease ticket. | will assume any
position my friends may desire me-exeept
to run upon the PcOse ticket for Lieutenant
Governor
We are not disappointed in the above,
We did not believe that the twenty-three
men, who promulgated that address, had
any authority TO represent such man as
Mr. Epperson.
We presume there is another man who
will rcpudiate that document; VIC have not
the rcmotest idea that Col. W. II. Johnson,
who became q candidate for Associate Judge
some days ago, dreamed of having his
name recommended by such q clique
Paris Press.
We have reliable authority for saying
that Hon. b. II. Epperson emphatically de-
clines being u candidate for Lieutenant
Governor on the Radical ticket This is
"the beginning of the end" Such another
boiling of leaders and laymen from the
Radical ranks as will soon occur, has never
before been witnessed in Texas. 1t is dead
already. Mr.. Epperson is q Conservative
and not q Radical.-Hoaston Telegraph.
Dallas herald. [volume] (Dallas, Tex.) 1849-1873, 1866-05-05

We have been credibly informed that the
editorial department of the San Antonio
Express is now under the control of a gen.
tleman whose radicalism is of the unadul-
terated, highly concentrated type, fresh
importation from the staff of the NEW
YORK TRIBUNE! We benighted Texans
should feel under the greatest obligations
to this "missionary," whose unbounded
generosity or philanthropy has induced him
to come all the way to Texas, leaving SO
delightful society as he has, and all to
enlighten us as to our duties in the APP
preaching canvass. But Notwithstanding
all the gratitude due in the premises, We
have failed to interpret rightly the Texan
character during residence of twenty
years, if the verdict at the ballot-box does
not teach all such missionaries" that they
have come to desert soil for the propaga-
ton of their odiour fanaticism and proscrip-
ton of true and peace-loving men. We call
upon all loyal, conservative citizens, who
favor the peace and Union Of the States,
and who are for restoring harmony through
out the country, to spurn the teachings of
this apostle of radicalism, whose mission is
to create dissention and keep up strife a.
mong us.--S. 4. Herald.

Ba Mr.. Downing of Bosque County, Col
lector of the U. S. Direct Tax, for Dallas, Col
lin, Grayson, Cook, Denton and Tarront
Counties, arrived at this place on Thursday
last and will at once commence the assess
ment of said Tax for the above counties.
He will, we understand, make the assess
ment for Dallas, Collin and Grayson coun-
ties Immediately, and commence the Collec-
ton as soon as the rolls for these counties
are complete, and Deputy win then visit
the other counties of his District and pro-
coed with the assessment in those counties.
Mr.. Downing will make his head quarters
at this place, and expects.to. have his rolls
ready for the collection Of the Tax in about
six weeks, due notice ofwhich will be given
through the public prints. =
This tax, it will be remembered, is the
tax on real estate levied by the United
States Government in 1851, and with the
interest and charges we understand, will
amount to about GOT cts on each hundred
dollars according to the valuation in 1860.

DISTRICT Court has been in session dur
ing the entire week, and will be kept busy
until tonight when it expires by limita-
ton. We learn that a great deal of bust
ness has been disposed Of none, however,
of very graveimportance. Three "freedmen"
were tried for felony, one sent to the Peni-
tertiary for two years, one acquitted, and a
mistrial in the other case. There is a
large amount of business, both civil and
criminal, yet on the Docket, which neces-
sarily goes over to next Court.
Among the attorneys in attendance,
which we unintentionally omitted in our
last, we have met J. P. Smith, Of Tarrant
County, Col. J. w. Payne, Of Ellis County
and r. J. McKinrie, Esq. of Parker.

federation of Opinion.

We have elsewhere noticed the address" to
the people of Texas, circulated by the radi-
Gals. "All men who love the Union" are
cordially invited to unite in declaration
of principles" That declaration embrace
es eight sections, and'we call special at
tention to the last clause of the eighth sec
ton 1t reads as follows: "That we full
ly recognize the fact that very grave ques-
tions are now, for the first time, presented
TO the people, and that we therefore freely
tolerate differences of opinion upon all sub
;sets NOT EMBRACING THE FOREGOING PRO-
POSITIONS"
II, therefore, the subject Of opinion is
embraced Difhin the foregoing propositions,
no difference of opinion is to be tolerated J !
Thus those radicrls and factiOnists are to
decide for sail men who love the Union"
what they have a right to think, and there
is no freedom Of opinion on the foregoing
proportions" Now read the sixth section
"That we acquiesce sincerely in the act
of the nation abolishing slavery, and that
we will endeavor to meliorate the condi-
tion Of the freed people in our midst by
treating them with justice, and by accord
ing TO them, not grudgingly, but willingly
and heartily, the rights which are now, or
may hereafter Be, SECURED TO THEN BIZ The
Constitution AVID THE LAWS" What fol-
lows as the result Of the above Hdeelara-
ton Of principles" Congress has passed
the HCivil Rights Bill" over The Presidents
veto, and 1t becomes the Law Of the land,
and The effect Of it will be 70 give the ne
gro suffrage; or, il it fails 70 do 50, HnOth-

pose; and all men endorsing this ideela-

tanned that the excessive wet weather will
cause the Wheat to rust. With clear cool
weather now, our Wheat would be ready
to cut in two weeks, but should the rain
continue, it will be somewhat delayed, and
perhaps considerably cut short.
We heard farmer say yesterday, that
during his entire residence in this county,
Of over thirteen years, he had never had
such prospect for a good crop Of Wheat,
and the same is the case all over the conn
ty, as far as we have heard an expression.

We are glad to see that a mail contract
has been let from Brashear to Houston.
This is over the Inside Route, concerning
which we have heretofore had considerable
to say, and shortens the distance and time
of the mails for two-thirds of the State
from twenty four to forty hours. The let
ting of this contract is q matter Of great
public Importance, and shows more than
anything else that the government at Wash
ington is alive to the interests Of our peo-
pie. We do not know how soon it will go
into operation, but we trust very soon, and
that it will give the needed impetus to the
completion of the Texas and New Orleans
Railroad. We hope the inside route may
at once be opened and the travel to and
from Texas saved the long Gulf passage
now required from Galveston to New Or
leans.
Let this be done, and the railroad pushed
on from Alleyton TO San Antonio, and the
people of the West will wake up some fine
morning and find themselves in the world
again. God speed the day.-HsastOn TeIe-

g6snOur old friend Capt. Geo. Brown, OF
the old 9th Texas Cavalry, is announced
for Sheriff in to-day's paper. 1t is useless
for us to introduce him, to our readers; he
is well and favorably known all over the
County. But we must remark here, that
as he is the second Broaon that is on the
track for Sheriff, voters should be very
careful how they make up their tickets.
We know that each one of the Browns
wants to get the votes of his friends, and
they would dislike to have any mistake
made. We can assure our readers of one
fact,-whichever of the candidates for
Sheriff, is elected, We shall have q compe-
tent and energetic officer.

laration Of principles? We once supposed,
in our ignorance and simplicity, that SOW
ereignty resided in the people. 1t is
claimed however, by the radical element of
the Government at Washington. Even
coordinate branch Of the government, the
law making power, is now assuming to
exercise sovereign power and those who
signed that address are pledged to support
that assumption. What position has been
promised to them by that infamous party?
Surely they must expect some reward, for
q blacker document never emanated from
Me printing Office of Lloyd Garrison. When
the laws of Congress give the negro VOTE
to\the exclusion of a white man, as the rad
icals hare proposed doing, (see Summers bill
for reconstruction,) then Messrs, Arm
strong and Smith, and their twenty-one as.
sociates, and all their followers and sup
porters, will accord to them mot grudg-
ingly, but willingiy and heartily, the rights
which are now, or may hereafter be secur-
cd to them by the Constitution and the ka,os."
That Constitution, according to Mr.. Sum-
ner and his friends, authorizes the exclu-
sion of the whites and the admission of
the blacks to the right of suffrage, and as
the radicals claim to have the power to
pass whatever laws Suit their notions, what
are we to expect, encouraged as they must
be by the organizing of q radical party in
Texas?
And yet the distinguished gentlemen who
represented Lamar and Hopkins and Lamar
in the Convention, come back and with their
names to that document, each has the face,as
we are informed, to offer foranother office! 1t
is not enough that the New Orleans Plea
yune published to the world that Lamar
sent two radicals to the convention, state
ment that many considered slanderous at
that time, but these representatives, for
sooth, return prepared to prove the TRUTH
of the Picayunes statement.
Will the voters Of Lamar and Hopkins
take notice?
There is an interesting history connected
with the circulation of the copies of this
address, which we propose giving in due
time.-PariS Press.
