This is one of the most enterprising and
fourishing corporations in Texas. 1t has
money to extend its track, and wants labor
ers to do the work. The President and
Directors of that road are among the most
respectable and responsible gentlemen in
the South. The following needs no ex-
planation:
HEADQUARTERS BUREAU REFUGEES, FREEDMEN, !
And Abandoned Lands, District of Louisiana,
New Orleans November 8, 1855.
It having been reported to these head
quarters that the efforts to obtain colored
laborers for the Texas Central Railroad is
difficult, owing to the impression among
freedmen that it is an attempt to ship them
to other ports than Galveston, freedmen
are assured when engaged by Mr.. j. c.
Cabeen, agent for the railroad for this
work, they will be duly shipped &c Calves
ton, and employed and paid by the Texas
Central Railroad Company.
BY order Brevet Major General Hatch.
B. T. HUTCHINS,
Brevet Major United States Army, Captain
Sixth Cavalry, Acting Assistant Adjutant
General, Bureau Refugees, Freedmen
and Abandoned Lands.
The advertisement of the agent of the
road appears in another column of the
REPUBLICAN. Colored men, out of en-
ployment, can not do better than to seek it
on the Texas Central Railroad.

WILL THBY KEEP TBB1R PROMISE 2

WILL THEY KEEP THEIR PROMlShf
John G. Stanton, Boston capitalist
largely interested in Southern railroads,
recently wrote as follows to the Governor
Of Alabama:
Noneyed men in the North tell me that
thew would be glad to unite with me and
assist me pecuniarily, if the election Of
President had been decided ; and that they
most certainly will unite with me If General
Grant is elected President. We shall
therefore, postpone active operations until
after the election; when, if everything is
favorable, we shall commence upon our
railroads, and push them forward with all
possible dispatch.
General Grant is elected and we natur-
ally inquire if they will keep their promise.
Doubtless, the question will be answered
in this wise: !" If you of the South will but
unite in preserving the peace; if you by
your acts will make it apparent that our
interests will be secure if invested in build
ing up your country; if you will prove by
acts that there shall henceforth be security
for life and property in your midst; if your
intolerance of opinion shall cease; if you
do now accept the results of the war, then
we are ready to tender that aid at once.
But if you still permit disorder and vio-
lence to reign as in the past, we will wait
until such a condition of peace is brought
about through the efforts Of the incoming
Administration"

ILLNESS OF THE STATE AUDIToR.-We re-

Of the outrages of citizen patrols, and the
insecurity Of person arising from their
lawlessness, a guard of soldiers was fur
nished for the protection Of Mr.. Wickliffe
