THE SITUATION IN TEXAS.

TIE letter of General Reynolds, who has COM
mand in Texas, affords clear and impartial
insight into the political situation in that
State. He shows conclusively that "Jack'
Hamilton is still the unscrupulous demagogue
that the Democratic press of the whole country
declared him to be until he engaged in his
present effort to break up the Republican
marty in the State for the sake OF advancing
his own personal interests. AS General Rey-
nelds says, ''the platforms of the two wings OF
the Republican party are precisely the same.
There does not appear to be even any side
issue ON the suffrage and amnesty question,
as was the case in Virginia and Tennesseei
and the only diverging point between the two
factions would seem to be the desire OF the
Davis or radical branch to comply strictly
with the terms Of the reconstruction laws BY
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1869-09-27

presenting as candidates for Office men who
are qualified under these laws, while the
so-called conservatives, under the lead OF
Hamilton, crowd their tickets with men who
are disqualified. Before the breach became
as wide as it now is, the friends of Davis en-
deavored to prevent it, and for the sake OF
harmony offered to accept of Hamilton as the
candidate for Governor, provided Davis were
placed on the ticket as candidate for Lieuten-
ant-Governor. As General Reynolds clearly
shows, all these proffers of peace were re-
jected, and upon Hamilton and his followers
must rest the responsibility for the split.
There is every reason to believe that the sue
cess of Hamilton will be brought about, if at
all, through the instrumentality of Demo
cratic votes, and that his election will result
in turning over the State Government to the
unrepentant and unreconstructed Rebels In
this view of the case, it becomes the duty of
the administration to lend a helping hand to
the true Republican party of Texas.

GENERAL JORDAN has offered to surrender
his whole filibustering command to Captain
General De Rodas, in return for stipulated
sum. But De Rodas with true Spanish virtue,
Indignantly refuses to become party to such
disgraceful bargain. Such, at least, is the
startling story that the Spanish censor at
Havana suffers the Cuba cable to tell. 1t is
about on par with the recent official publ
cation in the Diaa5O of the losses of the two
high contending parties since the 18th of
October, 1868. The Spanish loss footed up
beggarly regiment of 1913 men, while the
patriots and filibusters had suffered to the
extent of 38,642 of whom full IA, 691 were
actually dead and buried!

STARTLING News greets us from the New
Dominion. A tremendous thunderstorm
visited a portion of her British Majesty
domain on Saturday, and stray and reckless
thunderbolt had the audacity to barely miss
the head of the royal carpet-bagger who is now
struggling about the Dominion. We can
imagine the CONSERVATION and indignation of
the members of ''the Queens Own" but to
realize it fully visit to Canada would be
necessary

The Seminary For Ra2ides.
Liberal Offer.

When the State Seminary was first
located in this parish, the location
met with much opposition from our
sister parishes. Each wished to OBJ
tain for itself the location of SO desi-
rable an institution. Now that it has
been destroyed, 'the,question of it's
location is still on open one, and
much competition Will manifest it
self in other quarters, and many eff
forts will doubtless be made to Sc
cure its removal. It is true Rapides
will have the start in the race, mas
much as it's beautiful grounds, with
$50, 900 worth of improvements still
remain, and, moreover, the situation
has been proved to be exempt from
those climatic diseases which infest
other portions Of the State. But, in
view of the fact that other parishes
are sure to make a high pecuniary
bid for the building, will not the
people Of Rapides do something to
retain the institution in our midst ?
It has been demonstrated that such
an institution is a source of revenue
to the community in which it is sit
uated. And it is destined to be the
occasion of a still greater revenue,
when the prosperity Of the country
causes the assembling of a larger
number Of students, and Of students
with more means at their disposal
than the present impoverished con-
EDITION of our people will permit. Are
Enot the business men of the parish
and town sufficiently interested in
the rebuilding Of the Seminary to
Subscribe something towards its cree
Etion9 Other parishes will soon come
forward with their subscription,
what says Rapides9 -.
In this connection we would state
that Col. Boyd, the superintendent
is willing to head the list with hif
salary for two years (8,000,) which
he will give to retain the Seminary
in this parish. It is true this is 9
very large sum for one man to give
but Col. Boyd has watched over the
institution from it's very beginning
in this parish, and it is natural thai
he should be unwilling to break NJ
his associations with a spot that il

THE LADY's FRIEND FOR NOVEMBER
The November number of this popu-
lar monthly has litc-like steel plate
of The SISTERS, such sisters as may be
found in many an American home.
The colored Fashion plate is.gay, grace
full and stylish. A romantic picture,
illustrating Herrick's Night Piece to
Julia, and a|group of Dresses for young
ladies, in which that important por-
ton of humanity will find some loves
toilettes, introduce a series of uncom-
monty taking illustrations. The music
is The Little Injun GGlop. The Prize
of Two Mems Lives, by Miss Douglass
grows still more interesting; and Mrs
Woods Roland Yorke is worked up to
intensity as the plot draws toward its
close. Florence Percy has a beautiful
