General Assembly Of the Cumberland
Church.

We have had the pleasure Of a cnll from
Major John BOYD, Of Tehuacana Hills, and
DR.. NJ. L Wood, Of Fort Worth, who are
now on their way home from Greensboro,
XIV. where they have been as delegates to
attend the General Assembly Of the Cum
berland Church. They are accompanied
by Mrs. Dr. Fox, lady of high reputation
as writer, from whom we should be glad
to present our readers with an occasional
letter.
At this General Assembly the delegates
from the Southern States met with those
from the North for the FIRST time since 1866.
During this interval Of five or six Gears,
the Northern delegates met in Assembly By
themselves, and passed may bitter and
denunciatory resolves against the South
and Southern members of the Church, both
on account Of slavery and resistance 70 the
Northern rule which resulted In the war;
but we are glad 10 learn that more chris
tian and coDeiliatory spirit governed the
present Assembly, which passed resolutions
ezpuneing from the journals Of former As
semblies everything Of an unfriendly char
acfer towards the Southern members Of the
Church. This spirit Of mutual forgiveness
for the errors or difference Of the past
will long be remembered 20 the honor Of
This church. What q contrast 70 fbat win
dicti re and bIood-thirsty spirit which still
tbdBders from 80 many Of The NorthsrnPul-
pits, which can be satiaied vita nofhirg

The recent unprecedented flood has let

The recent unprecedented food has let
the lower part Of the city in an extremely
dilapidated condition. A number of build
ings on Dallas street are more or less seri-
ously damaged, and the street itself and
sidewalks are astonishingly torn up and
mutilated. The entire loss to citizens and
corporation is variously estimated at from
fifty to two hundred thousand dollars. The
correct figures are doubtless somewhere
between these amounts.-Jef;rson Bul.
The corn and cotton crops in North East
ern Texas have been very seriously dam.
aged by the recent flood. In some locai-
ties we hear that plantation work has been
entirely abandoned on account of the utter
and Wholesale destruction of the crops. In
other neighborhoods, the loss has been COM
paratively small, but everywhere the i'm
mensc quantity of rain has proved sorely
disastrous to the planter.-Ibid.
1t is generally believed that not one-half
the crop of cotton will be made in this sec.
ton of country that was anticipated two
months since. Where the crop is mostly
destroyed the continued wet weather and
the lateness of the season will prevent re-
planting, and where there is still fair
stand the grass and weeds threaten par
tial failure Of the crop.-Ibid.

Mrs, A, 8. johnson.

A proposition is made by distinguished
old Texian and special friend of the late
Gen. Johnston-namely Col. Thos. F. Nc
Kinney of Austin, to aid the widow and
children of that gallant soldier who sacri-
feed his life for cause we held dear upon
the memorable fields of Shiloh. If there is
one widow more deserving than another, if
there is one household of orphans who have
stronger claimsupon our sympathy or char.
ity than another, if the people of Texas
hold in sacred memory the daring deeds Of
her brave defenders, one more than anoth-
er, that widow, those children and that
true defender may be the subjects of this
notice.
General Johnson, like the lamented Gem
erals Green and McCuloch, hurried to Tex
as in her hour Of greatest trouble, aud with
them acted q noble part in wrestling her
from Mexican enthralldom, forcing from
the world the knowledgement that Texas
was, and of right ought 10 be free and nun
bered with the nations of the earth. Then
it was that her Ship of State piloted by her
own beloved ones, rode proudly upon the
wave, while her lone star banner excellng
in grandeur, and radiant with be auty, won
the admiration Of a noighboring ssterhood
that courted and caressed her into that
dangerous voyage, that ended in the whirl-
pool of centralsm AMI perhaps despotsm,
from which to We her, this patriotic trio
yielded life itself--call it madness, call it
folly, call it treason, but it WAS prompted
by noble spirit and not inappropriate,
here are the lingering words almost upon
dying lips, "That success is the rule by
which men of my profession must be tried,
a hard rule, 1t is true, but possibly q just
one" Gen. Johnson left his wife and little
children upon the distant shores of Cali
fornia, where they are now, the bereaved
widow trying to support herself and little
offspring, one of which never beheld n
father, by school teaching in q land of
strangers. Col. McKenney, proposes to
raise some means for their assistance and
appeals to the charity of TEXANS. Will
the ladies take the matter in hand. Mrs.
johnson is Texas lady. Contributions
can be forewarded to Col Mckinney at
Austin, placed in the hands of the chief
justices of the counties or deposited with
other agents he has dcsignated.-Houston
Dispatch.

nsy~The Waco Register makes us ga

Gg~ The Waco Register makes us say
that, "not one-half the crop of cotton will
DO mado in that section as was anticipated
two months ago, owing TO the continued
wet weather. The recent unprecedented
food in the Trinity river has seriously in
jured the town of Dallas. The loss to citi-
zens and corpora ion is estimated at from
fifty to two hundred thousand dollars"
And again, that, "the corn and cotton
crops-in North Eastern Texas have been
very seriously damaged by the recent flood.
In some localities we hear that plantation
work has been entirely abandoned on ac-
count of the utter and wholesale destruc-
tion' of the crops. In other neighborhoods
the loss has been comparatively small, but
every where the immense quantity of rain
has proved sorely disastrous to the planter"
We beg to be excused; we never said
any thing that is contained in either of the
paragraphs. The editor has got hold of
some other paper, and given us credit for
saying what we know nothing about. We
had ''right smart chance OF water here
few weeks ago,-more than We well knew
what to do with, but the loss ITO citizens
and corporation" didn't exceed as many
hundreds as the above parapragh makes
thousands.

E1-A company has been organized in
Galveston, called the "Texas Land, Labor
and Emigration Company" for the promo
ton of "immigration to Texas, facilitate
the settlement of landry immigrants and
to obtain laborers and skilled operatives
for our fields, workshops and social needs. !"
We find the plan Of operations, proposed
organization, and an address to the people
of Texas, ia the Galveston News of the
5th inst, and shall publish the same entire
in our next issue. The organization was
had at the instance and in furtherauce of
the proposition Of Thomas Affleck, Esq,
some of whose letters we have published.
We see that similar organizations are
being proposed in other portions of Texas,
as at waco, Rusk, &C., and VIC SEQ no rea-
son why something might not be done in
Northern Texas.
Our columns have been so much taken
up recently by matters Of political char
acter, that we have found but little room
todesotc to this allimportants subject, but the
election is now near al hand, and we shall,
after that have more space and time to de-
vote to the subject above named, and we
intend to do il, at the same time inviting
communications favoring the same.

as am informed was to present a ticket
upon which the Conservative Union men of

facilitate the defeat Of the Radical faction,
who had already presented their ticket
for State officers. This must have been
done, on account of the shortness of the
time preceding the election, and consequent
difficulty of securing concert Of action IN
any other way. Being private citizen,

tunate rencounter between a company Of
tho 9th Reg. Cavalry and the citizens Of
Weatherford, that occurred week OF mere
ago. This regiment passed through Waco
about month ago, going, by companies,
TO different points in Northern and East
,ern Texas. One company went through
WeathcrfOrd, and it seems that just before
reaching this place Corporal and two or
three men called at the house of farmer
10 puchsse bacon. From some unexplained
cause, the farmers smoke-house key was
gone, 80 that he ceuld not supply thcm
with the desired article. They manifested
disposition to help themselves regardless
of the wishes and rights of the proprietor,
and he was not willing TO submit to so
gross violation of his rights, and the af-
fair resulted in the death of the Corporal.
The farmer made his escape. Weatheriord
was Immediately put under guard by the
commander of the company. Sometime in
the night prisoner, in the custody of the
officers of the law, escaped, and the firing
Of the guard was mistaken by the soldiers
for an attack upon them and they immedi-
stely opened fire upon the citizens, whi;h
was returned. A brisk firing was kept M
for some time, during which lady was
seriously wounded; no other casualties

ANKxDHEsrs TO The CoKsrITuT1oS.-Let
every voter read the new Constitution, and
reflect well before he casts his ballot. Let
him remember that the word rhits does not
appear in the old Constitution. It was not
necessary when it was adopted, because
freedmen we're then slaves.
Let him remember that the Civil Rights
Bill passed over the Presidents veto, makes
the negroes citizens Of the United States,
and nov, under the old Constitution, are
eligible 70 the Legislature, and entitled TO
distribution Of the school fund.
Let every one bear in mind, that the
amendments proposed TO The constitutios
uses the word sshifs IS n qualification for
Legislators, and the school fund is set apart
for the rshife scholastic inhabitants.
These are great and important Euend-
msnts. Do rot overlook hen

BET" "0nward," correspondent Of the
