English Immigrants in Texas.
The Galveston Ne,us says:


j. NcAdam, the representative of the
State in Great Britain, arrived last Sunday
with 1876 English farm people and families
He left Liverpool on the twenty seventh of
November, in the steamship Minnesota, and
arrived in New Orleans on the fifth of Jan
nary, after fearful passage of thirty seven
days, having had to pat in to Bordeaux and
Havana. The people with him are all agri-
cultural laborers, having been procured by
him il the counties of Hampshire, Dorset
shire, Somerset and Surrey. He states that
235 left England in the San Jacinto, which
will arrive here about the twenty fifth, and
he expects to return to England in about
thirty days to engage immigrants for the
fall of 1873.
We learn from Mr.. MoAdam that there
are representatives of the various Western
States, and Union Pacific railroad and Bur-
lington and Missouri railroad, who are well
supplied with documents relative to their
respective sections, and have fine offices,
with their products we'll displayed in OF der
to induced the flow of capital as we'll as
labor into their midst. We think that if
our planters aud others interested in British
farm emigration, that have fine samples of
their produce and documents favorable to
immigration, would do well to let Mr. Nc
Adam have the benz fit of the same in order
that he may offer equal inducements with
other sections of the country.

So new Louisiana ia favored with two
legislatures, two Governors and Lieuten-
ant Governors, aad all the paraphcrnalia of
two State organizations. The spectacle is
one Illuminating in the last degree, because,
as every man knows, one OF these parties

non. Fraud may have so far tainted the
acton on both sides as to render it doubtful
winch Of the two sets Of candidates were
honestly entitled to the return. An invesfi.
CATION may disclose the fact that one party
returned the most votes, while the other
failed because of frauds in the registry.
There is not and has not been at any tims
for years doubt that the Republicans have
a large majority in the State If that ma
jprity allowed its strength to be divided, or
failed to poll it for reasons within its own
control no investigation can repair the evil.
II must merely record the facts. Ii, on the
other hand, it be proven that AN arbitrary
exercise and abuse of power by election
managers changed the result, then a devel-
opment of the facts will vitiate the return
aud remand the question to the people.
The Chronicle adds:

Myriads of doves flew down to quench their thirst at the brooklet near, then winged their noisy way to the canyons and to mezquitales and pale-blue sierra sides that lay streaked with rich gold of the suns first rays. The totaches and cuervas so numer- ous in this region had been cleav- ing the still morning air long be- fore we awoke, pouring forth their inimitahle and unmelodiOuS Ori- sons. Swarms of field-sparoWs whirled in graceful poise or inn petuOus rush, now high above the tree-tops, now skimming the froth from the troubled brooklet, or sailing along without apparent effort in a seeming ecstacy of ease. The torn robes of the night-mist had fioated away to the foothills, and their delicate texture and translucent purity seemed never so striking as on the particular morning in question. Notched peaks, clothed in the morning tWll ght, StO0Q outlined against a panoramic horizon.
 AS I walked, watching the varied and ever-varying, the very | old yet ever young and fresh beau ties of the Morning, a stentorian voice roughly broke in upon my quiet medltations with
 " Say!-are you coming with us?"
 Bah ! the spell was broken, and so 1 rolled and tied my blan- ketS, and followed my companions for the trip along the sinuous trail, over rolling mounds of deep-green verdure, and down the sandy bed of canyon which led us to the main road, and finally, to Saric.

An! the United States-a Gringo-that accounted for my want of knowledge of "la politica de los Mejicanos." But I really was surprised at their re. fusal to "take money"-the aver age American would have snatcht it greedily, and nodded curtly in your direction as if to say, "Humph! = -foolr' and at the same time have aided you out of his palatial hasherie had you in- nocently intimated that it twas yours," or that he might "charge it."
 After a bath in the Willow-bor- dered stream, I ascended the hill to a church the counterpart of San Xavier del Bac. Boys and girls in lower gallery, alternated in the solemn rendition of sacred hymns. I stole up into the belfry and found four bells girdled with embossed names of the saints Francisco, Joseph, Michael and Mary.
 Over the surrounding broad and extensively cultivated valley hung a Sabbath noon almost trop- ical in its fervOr; the green patch es of barley, wheat and rye form ing q pleasant contrast to the whitewashed houses and far of blue, purple and brown noun tains.
 And thus I sat, and unused. The music had ceased, the congrega- ton gone, and 1 had heard as in dream the hollow clang-to of the massive lower folding doors of the public entrance. 1 saw. from my reclining position the turnkey cross the plaza and, after chatting with neigh Dor, retire to-I knew not whither. My thoughts were far back in the long ago when hu- mans tied to blazing faggots had breathed their last amid torture Of body in a certain other plaza, amid the plaudits of assembled th0usands.. 1 slept, awoke, and the sun was already half-hid- den from view:

The road from Saric to Altar leads down the banks of the Rio del Altar or Rio del Espiritu San- to. At distances of 3 to 8 and 10 leagues apart you pass well-built adobe structures, similar to those found standing wherever a Span
 iard or his descendant has set
 foot. The fields are fenced with
 brush we'll woven between poles placed foot or more apart; irri
 gating ditches skirt the bluffs and often follow the line of the road for miles. 1 saw the Mexican blowing with crooked sticks of an
 elbow shape, sharpened so as to tear the soil to a depth of three or four inches, which after having been planted in corn, gave stalks 10 to 15 feet in months; in six months from time of planting this corn is ripe, and is taken off, that a crop of beans or wheat may be put in, which in turn ripens and is gathered-thus are two crops a year raised in Sonora with four irrigationS and the subsequent "trOuble" of gathering them.
 Near Tuvntama the road enters a vast forest of meZquite trees-Of larger growth than those of either Texas, New Mexico, Arizona or California-their great branches, overlapped twenty feet and more above the narrow roadway, cast an impenetrable shade upon the sands below. In the heart of this forest, more than ten leagues in extent, 1 came upon the ruins of what had once been a mann moth hacienda; for more than two leagues the lines of the c0rralS and their numerous subdivisions could be traced, and the fallen walls on every hand indicated rather war than age.
 Just on the southern edge of this forest, the Hacienda de Ia Inherta buildings and cattle-pens are ranged on either side of the road. Here I spread my blankets and laid down near the door of one of the jacalitos; seeing which the owner invited me in, and upon my declining with thanks, he brought his mat and blankets and slept by my side. Some time before dawn of the next morning 1 was awakened by a low murmuring sound, which rose and fell in solemn cadences like the echo of distant lamenta- tion. Itwas the ranch-people, re- beating as they lay, young and old of both sexes, the Our Father and Holy Mary invOcations. No simple ceremony could have been more impressive the chOiring alto, tenor and bass voices, the murmuring of the morning wind and the soft sound of whispering leaves, then the momentary still ness, and the gateway of mellow light that fell from the distant stars into the marrow road seemed of more than ordinary brilliancy to Us who lay in the sOmber shad )ws near.
