fully probable Congress will divide the State
without the ssAs'Ai Of The people. IL has
been fairly ds:srminsd aud settled that
Congress can divide State With the con-

,psst. Massachusetts, willingly permitted
The State Of Maine being formed cut Of her
territory TO secure 10 the free, sellers bal
ahes in Congress against the South. which
at that time was obtaining increase Of
power By the admission Of Arkansas. The
cas-. Of Virginia cannot ,sgilimstely be
cited, as anoiasr example, for the legisla'
iurs which consented did no, represent the
people Of the State at large. Ye', even
should Congress SUI init its action for ap-
prevail to the existing State government, o.
that burlssque upon republican institutions
and right Of representation, the motley
mob about TO assemble In Austin, Il cannot
be doubted but that these political serfs
would ehssrfully aud gratefully consent.
When Texas annexed herself to the United
States, the Congress Of the United States,
submitted n series OF resolutions TO the
Republic Of Texas, and which were np-
proved by Il, aud among those resoln'
lions was the following provision, New
States Of convenient size and not exceeding
four In number In addition TO the said State
OF Texas, and having sufficient population
may heres fer by the consent Of said State,
be formed out OF the territory thereof which
shall be entitled to admission under the
Federal Constitution" Here again is the
same restriction, by The consent Of said State.
"The hearts Of the people speak the COM
mand of Heaven" is an old yet beautifully
true proverb Of the Chinese; and no one
could deny the right Of the people 10 do
that which is for their interest, for the
people is the real origin Of all power and
their advantage and interest are the grand
and cardinal rules for deciding in all mat
tiers OF State.
For some time few of the most promi-
ncnt men Of the State have contemplated
the expedioncy Of such action, their object
heing 10 make such division as would pro-
ducs in each harmony in views and idenli-

signs of the Radical party. Already they
perceive that there is not only great dan
ger but an almost abs olutc certainty, the
next House of Representatives will be
Conservative, and in order to check this
power IL is necessary to have the Senate
Radical unit. Al present they have forty
three Senators out of ffiy-three. But this
is in sufficient; they will add to their ranks
thirty new Senators, which will give sew
enty. three votes out Of eighty-three. Tho
ten Southern States, by means Of tho re-
process, will furnish twenty
which number will be increased ten more
by the dissection of Texas and admission
of Colorado.
That Texas will be divided is an au fat
aceomph; it is necessary for Radical SUI
premacy, and never yet has their been
regard for oath Of Office re-
spcct for the constitution or attention TO
the interests and wishes Of the people by
that party unless their designs were there-
by advanced.
BY means Of this packed Senate the
Radicals expect TO control the Government
and rule the country until 1878. With such
a majority, the House will be powerless, to
repeal any Of their many degrading and
destructive acts, and the President, if
cannot appoint even his cab
met, unless the members are acceptable to
the Senate. A person acceptable to Radi-
calls and Conservatives alike is moral i'm
possibility.
