connection of Louisiana and New Orleans
with San Francisco, and alluded to the
difference in the productions of the two
regions, and the mutual benefits that

happy speeches. Senator Sherman poin-
ed out the necessity 10 San Francisco of q
competing line of railroad to connect it
with the Atlantic. Let the Vanderbiils
and Tom SCOTS and Stanfords compete,
and let the public have the advan tage of
the cheapest and best routes. Kelley de-
scribed the trouble in building the great
railroads of Pennsylvania, years in start

the present with the past. A road would
soon be built FROM the Texas Pacific down
TO the city o1Mexico, thus making con

adjourned with the best feeling among
all.

HANNAH IMrRovIYG.-We are glad Ia
inform our readers that Hannah of the
Canton Times is better. Since his unfor.
tuuaie visit TO Dallas, he has taken trip
to Palestins, and finds that holy city al.
together lovely, and the land, thro' which
he journeyed, fair TO see, with its pearly
streams and fruitful fields. He tarried
all night by the way at Edom, another
scripiural place, and found the Ho tel
kept by an old friend, where he. WAS nhos.
pitably" received, and we trust had no bill
TO pay. The soup, of course, was all right.
II is evident that the young party, who
answers TO the name of IlGnnah, was
more careful Of himself on this occasion /;
but We ought erhaps to observe that, u
"fellow townsman," no doubt Of mature
age, accompanied him, and this may &C.
count for his having accomplished the
trip without any nishap to bis inner man
and coming home good humored. Good
luck TO Hannah.

The ELECTIONS -Gov. Davis has Issued
his Proclamat ton for the Presidential and
State elections. The election is 10 last
for four days. So all fear of trouble at
the Presidential election is over. The late
act of Congress, just at its close, by the
instigation Of the Hon. John Hancock, is
very clear and explicit, and there can be
no doubt Of the intention Of the law. If
it really clsshed with the Constitution of
the U. S. A. as suggested by lawyer Pas
chsl, in proof sheet, sent out in advance
Of his volume of the Annotated Digest, it
would not be for Gov. Davis to Judge of
that, but the courts of the country. The
Governor has very properly thought it
best 10 carry ont the will of Congress in
stead of pullifying it.

Parton's Life of Greeley.

This is one If the most notable books Of
the times, and decidedly one of the best
written and remarkably interesting oil
American biographies. We do not pro-
pose to review it from political stand
point, for it is not designed as u mere cam
paign book, but work of standard value,
from the pen of writer OF established
reputation, whose biographies of eminent
Americans, are woll known md highly
valued. Mr. Partons writings are all at
tractive on account of the care he exeYc:s-
es in collecting incidents, and the ingenu-
| ity with which he weaves them into the
story ola life, to relieve the tedium of dry
facts and monotepoYs narration.
Such q work cannot be reviewed 10 the
fcompass of an ordinary book notice, and
it is therefore best to simply inform the
| reader, that it was commenced several
years ngo, before Mr.. Greeley was thought
of as presidential cand idate, and faith.
fully written Us one volume in the series
of Parton biographies, simply for its gen.
eral interest and intimate connection with
the history Of the country, for near half a
century. Commencing with his BIRTH and
following him through all the vicissitudes
VI early yours VI tTldi anu university, tnc
school which developed the wonderful pow
er that marks his ripper years and carried
him forward to the time when the people
honored him with the nomination for The
highest place in our land. Not written
in the interest of Party, it is full aud
impartial history, entirely free from pal-
tisan bias, md worthy place in every
library in the land. As n book Of efer-
erce guide to young men and m inceui
tive to renewed activity for every aspir,
ing mind.
The volume is large ducdecino, cle1
gantly bound and appropriately illustra
ted, and is sold through The canvas-ing

considered, mud nil political predictions
aside, it appears to us one of the best
most generally desirable, and cheapest

What They Intend.


From late number Of the wilmington
IN. o. Journal, We learn that the lead ng
radicals In that State ihreaicn openly, In
case the Legislature, when II meets, from
clear proof of fraud, declare Merrlmon
elected Governor, they will resist and call
IN the General Government to aid them.
Gov Davis, of this State, Is reported In
the Austin radical Journal ms threaten.
ing the same way, II our next Legislature
attempts to overhaul the rascalities by
which he was declared Governor. Promi-
Iont radicals have admitted, time and
again, that Jack Hamilton was really
elected tho Governor of this State, and
, that Davis was counted in by the most bare.
faced fraud. The Legislature then elect
ed, never examined into the matter, as 1t
WINS their constitutional duty to do, ma
jority of them being OF the same dark
stripe, and many of them perfectly aware
of The fact, yet If the coming Legislature
dare 10 look into the matter md right the
damning wrong committed, Edmninl Ju-
piter Davis talks of fighting to keep his
place, that he may still longer lord it over
an oppressed people. Fight will he? Yes,
aud he hopes John Hancock will be pres
ent. We hope he will, and if he is, the
redoubtablc Edmund Jupiter will be
among the missing in a short time. lie
will take no order Of his going. If Eight
is the word, and it comes 10 TINT, .here il
some little of that element left in the
Texas people. They are peaceable, nnt
desire above all things law and order, Blu
il all laws, human aud divine, arc to b.
violated for the purpose of cnsaving ant
depressing them, they have manhood
, enough left TO take care of themselves il
the last resort. Gov. Davis and his who'll
set would be as nothing to them. The.
|, would scamper like parcel Of rats Il
. their holes.
But there is very serious aspect t'
l.. this matter, which the people, all over thi
: Lroad country, should look ut and consid
5 err we'll. If Grant is reelected, these radi
cal threats may be carried out or tn
whole land be drerched with blood. Wit
Grant ns President and the army to bacl
him, the radical arpet-baggers and scala
= wags in the South may do what they pleas
j plumber, rob and murder, and they wi
be sustained. We may know this muc
d, of the future by the past. If Grant is II
elected, the rightfuliy elected Governor c
u North Carolina will be kept out and IL
u usurper kept in by force in spite of i
lawful Legislature and ouicrying peopl
SO, too, will Gov. Davis be upheld by Il
bayonet, and this he confidently believe
u or lie would not talk thus boldly. Til
safety of the people of Texas, the peace

of Horac, Greeley. With him as Pres
y dent, all will be we'll. The South wi
