A TEXAS CONTEST.

General William T. Clark, whose record
| in the late civil war will bear favorable
comparison with that of any gentleman
who survived that perilous contest, has
been nominated by the Republicans of
the Third Congressional District of the
State of Texas as candidate for Repre-
sentative: He is young man, but in
the various positions to which he was as
signed General Clark earned the repr1ta-
ton of being a finished soldier. If to
this we add his admitted ability as a
civilian, and as member of the Forty
first Congress, and his acknowledged in
tegrity and fidelity as a gentleman, the
reasons are overwhelming why Texas
should send him to Congress if she wants
a real business man to attend to her
wants at Washington. His competitor is
Colonel Giddings, who took the wrong
side in the same contest, but who gen.
orally managed to be on the win
ming side in his own little specula-
tons. Colonel Giddings is the Demo-
cratic nominee, and his antecedents
amply fit him for a place in the govern
ment, as it will be organized, when Tam
many Hall comes into possession of the
Presidency. The nomination of Giddings
is enough to beat the Democracy if the
Texans have any self-respect, for he was
d cotton. Spectator when they were deeply !
engaged in the war; he had all sorts of
bogus contracts with the JEFF Davis govern |
nent, which he never fulfilled: he ran stage
ines that were efficient when he had op-
position, and that degenerated into de-
'repitude when competition did not stir
him up; and, generally speaking, he was
. fraud. AS between these two men.
therefore,, the people of Texas can make
'ut one sensible choice, General Clark
hould be returned by an immense ma
ority. not alone on account of his superior
bllity as representative and man. but
mark of disapprobation on the part
the Texans toward the class of men
Tho traded on their misfortunes, and who
id not stop his endeavors to wiring them
ven when the war had ceased. Of the
Their candidate we shall take occasion To

JACK HAMILTON AMONG HIS pR1ENns.

JACK HAMILTON AMONG HIS FRIENDS,
Ex-Governor Hamilton, of Texas, is in
the position of discarded lover. He has
been sacked by the people, and he is ter,
ribly jealous and envious of his rival.
Governor Davis Wherever and when
ever he can get an audience, or even a
single auditor to whom he can s.unpack
his heart in words" he is temporarily
happy. His great grief is dear to him,
and we believe that if he could only make
1t pay, he would not part with it on any
account. He would consider the removal
OF his alleged cause of complaint as great
affilctlon-a serious personal loss-unless
such removal were compensated bv SUBJ
stantlal advantages. For instance, the
removal OF Governor Davis from the ex-
ecutive chair of the State, and the election
OF any other man in Texas except Jack
Hamilton, would be regarded by that dis
carded, disconsolate lover as the worst CO.
iamity that could befall 'the people Of
Texas, " which is Jacks figure of speech
for himself.
This distinguished politician made a
speech in. Galveston on the seventeenth
The report states that his audience
was composed of men of both
parties. Hamilton was decidedly at
home before such an audience. for
he is himself most decidedly composed
OF both parties. But the term .sboth
parties, as applicable to this Galveston
audience, implies out and out, dyed in
the wool Democrats, who few wears aoo
were incorporating rebels; and men
like Jack Hamilton, who once attempted
to march under Republican banners. and
not being rated. by the peoplea at their own
are now ashamed that they ever
pretended to be Republicans. The gen
slemen belong to the one plank platform |
party. and their plank is, of course, self |
interest. Any policy that does not place
lack Hamilton's political and private in
erests above all other considerations, is, /
n his opinion, a sorry failure, and will
uin .'the peooler himself.
Hamilton informed his one plank

friends IA Galveston that the State admin
istration Of Governor Davis is a very bad
and tyrannical one; that the Legislature
Is corrupt and extravaganza, and most of
us acts unconstitutional. He furthermore
charged, before his little audience of
"both parties" that Adjutant General
Davidson, Chief of the State Police, is a
"thief and robber" AS he was not under
oath, and his audience did not happen to
be the grand jury, we are at liberty to
question the propriety of Mr. Hamilton's
conduct. For, if he believes General
Davidson to be guilty of theft and rob
berry, he should bring formal charges at
the proper time and place, and give the
accused the usual benefit Of appearing
and making his defense. But to go before
mixed audience of Galvestonians, and
throw out such wholesale charges shows
that he has not much faith in the strength
of his case. 1t is moreover evidence of
feeling of irritation and offended vanity,
growing out of preference for Davis by
the people when the two gentlemen were
candidates for Governor
The truth is, and Hamilton is old enough
to know it, that the people of Texas are
quite capable of choosing their own Off
GERS they have exercised such discretion
many times without consulting Governor
Hamilton, and will, in the very nature of
things, be called upon to do SO in the
years to come, when they can no longer
have the benefits of his advice, and as he
can not live always to direct them, they
may as well make start that way now, as |
to wait till they are compelled to. And if
a departure from his leading is the initial
step On the road to ruin, as he evidently
believes it is, why not let him have the
in life of beholding the catas-
trophe that is sure to come sooner or
later
We have gentlemen here who are very
fond of making their egotistical speeches
before audiences composed of members of
both parties, but usually distrusted by
Zach. They, like the Texas orator, usu-
lily see all sorts of evil in the dominant
'arty, and nothing but darkness and de-
for the future. They are popu-
arly known as "outs," and naturally
ntertain the traditional hatred toward |
ne ''ins. And that was the bond of
between Hamilton and his
udience. The real good of the people
ad no place in any of their thoughts.

HE GOES IN FOR WATER, ON PRINCIPLE,

HE GOES IN FOR WATER, ON PRINCIPLE
Weare informed by Alderman Henchert.
OF Carrollton, that he voted against the
Holly waterworks ordinance because. in
his opinion, it did not contain the proper
safeguards against the liability of the
Guy Tor the expense of laying down water
pipes. At the previous meeting, Mr.
Henchert, who is chairman of the com
mlttee On streets and landings, reported
an ordinance on the subject substantially
the same as the one adopted, with the
exception that it contained a clause which
exempted the city from all liability for
the cost of laying down water pipe in the
future. For some reason, the Civ Conn
Gil preferred the substitute presented
by special committee, to which
Mr.. Hencherts ordinance had been
referred. In our Judgment, there is
no material difference between the two
ordinances upon the point raised by Mr.
Heuchert. The waterworks company.
and not the city, will be chargeable with
tne expense of laying water pipes, under
the ordinance adopted, as effectually as
they would have been under the one that
was rejected. But the alderman thought
inherently; and as he could not have it
exactly ms own way, voted against the
ordinance on It's final passage, just as was
stated in the REPUBLICAN. He appears to
De one OF those gentlemen who wish to
nave Things exactly their own way or not
at all which may be good rule in the
regulation of private affairs, but will not

J. II. GARDNER, Agent Grover & Baker Sewing
Machine Company No. 1872 Canal street, New
Orleans
Strive are much il want of two of your FAMILY
SEWING MACHINES, and propose to give You in
exchange for them, one reach, Singer and Wheeler
Wilson If you accept our offer it will take from
us the last Of Eve of the other patterns of
machines that we hare disposed of to give place
to yours.
We have had much experience with several of
the leading Sewing Machines, and feel that we can
say without injustice to any one that the
ELASTIC STITCH MACHINE
OF your Company's make is far superior to
any that We have used Its simplicity,
small effort required to operate and the great
strength and elasticity of its seam, are qualities
we have never found equaled in any other. Since
the introduction Of your Sewing Machine into our
Asy it has always been the tavorite with our
children and often a source Of much contention
among them as to who should have the privilege
of its use.
During the pas. two years we have had five of
your Sewing Machines in constant use, and large
quantities of work of every description for fani
lies hasbeen done on them. We have never had
any complaint from those for whom the work has
been done, but, on the contrary, much praise for
the beauty and perfection of the machine stitching
We most earnestly hope that you will accept our
proposition to exchange and favor us by sending
your machines at the earliest opportunity. VI
