The telegraphic dispatches give the death
of General B. NJ. Bradford, who is said to
have been distinguished in the Florida and
Mexican wars. We think there must be
some error in this. Our particular friend
OF many years, who was the Major of the
First Mississippi Rifles, commanded by Col.
JefT. Davis, has not been living in Memphis,
and his name is Alex. NJ. Bradford. He
has had brother, Ben. Bradford, living in
Memphis for some years, and we suspect he
was the victim Of the prevailing epidemic.
We trust our old Major, often called With
lacoochee, from his valor in the battle of
that name against the Florida Indians, is
still alive. For many years, his residence
has been in Bolivar county, Mississippi,
but he usually spent his summers at Holly
Springs, his former home.

Governor Davis, of Texas, and Postmas-
ter Clarke, of Galveston, are still here wag-
ing political war on each other, with odds
in favor of Clarke, who is going to Long
Branch to enlist the aid of the President in
saving his own head, and capturing that of
the Governor. Washington correspondence
New York Herald, July 10.
So this is the manner in which Governor
Davis occupies himself in his absence, the
ostensible purpose Of which, here, was to
attend to Indian matters, and the selling of
Texas bonds.
He has now been absent some twenty-six
days and not a word in regard to the negOtia-
ton Of bonds. The Legislature empowered
him to sell the bonds, but with an entire
understanding that he should appoint a
capable business man and financier to at
tend to the matter. It never was presumed
that he would assume the role of manipula-
ting the bulls and bears of Wall street, es-
pecially with DeGress, Britton and Elliott,
Of the Gazette. as his hackers.
The Legislature, after waiting upon the
regular committees until near the close of the
session to take action on the financial situa-
ton, adopted the plan finally offered, with
such lights before it, a. led to the reasona-
bic belief that Governor Davis would not
himself become the financial agent Of
Texas, but would use the power delegated
TO him through a proper party. The above
extract shows how he is occupying his time
at Washington interfering in federal affairs,
and acting in a manner genefally disgraceful
to the character Of an acting state executive.
II is nothing more than what.We antici-
pated. A similar instance to the present
took place nearly two yeaz ago. He then
sent an agent, 3Ir. Whitis, to sch bonds in
New York, and 80 soon as be had created a
respectable valuation for them the Governor
conceived there was good thing in il,
and away he went to New York, and
took the matter in his own hands.
Bonds went down at once from ninety
threc to scveniy.iive cents, and the
next thing was the creation Of a
new agency in the hands Of rot
ten men. Who have since failed and the
State suffered thereby. Had TIE Govarnor
now sent q suitable agent on. asit was under

THE Austin Journal seems to have en-
ployed an extra editor, or, more probably,
one volunteered, to comment on our defence
of Judge Hancock from the aspertions of
the San Antonio Express What this
writer is pleased to call our ''puff'' of John
Hancock was the expression of our honest
opinions, and the estimate, which we put
upon his talents and services, will be in
dorsed by every unprejudiced person, who
knows any thing about his standing and in
fiuence at Washington City during the last
Congress. We are not in the habit, like the
Journal, of putting man one day as para
gon and the next day denouncing him as
thief and scoundrel. But a short. time
ago, the Austin Journal was engaged in
lauding General Clark and sustaining Gov
ernor Davis in certifying him into Con-
grcss, and what does it say about him nowg
Let its recent columns answer. The Journal
has no praise for honest politicians, who
are above its comprehension and the subject
of its censure.
The sneersO Of this radical writer can effect
only himself. The paper, that pulls Gov
ernor Davis and DcGress, should not have
the face to prate about a want Of education
and refinement The Journal not only goes
for high salaries but high stcalings. It
goes for nothing low but low characters and
low down politics.

THE coIored people, lately assembled in
Convention at Brenham, say in their nd
dress, which, by the way, is very well
written by somebody, that they win become
Homogeneous people, If we win only
concede to them the civil rights and social
equality, which portion Of the democrats
Of Louisiana are willing to grant. But the
negro and the white man can never become
homogeneous. Nature has forbidden homo
gently. between them, and it is useless to
strive against nature. The address is gen.
orally moderate and ccnciliatory in tone,
but there is a threat that Congress win
force The social mingling at hotels and pub
lie places Of amusement, by the passage Of
Summers Bill. We must tell them that
even that cannot bring about the homoge-
nifty they crave.

TIM general laws viii be ready for deliv-
cry to the Secretary Of State by about the
twenty-fifth inst. We have also in press
the special laws, which, too, win be ready
in due time. Besides these and other work
for the State, We are publishing the Thirty.
fifth Volume Of the Supreme Court Reports.
The work is all being done with new type,
and on che most improved presses, and We
place it all against any other work Of sim
liar nature ever published in this State.
The Supreme Court Reports win be gotten
up in a style far superior to anything Of the
kind done in Texas heretofore, and we in
tend that shall compare fayorably, bind
ing and all, with work done anywhere.

THERE is another wounded pedagogue
writing in the Austin Journal, who quotes
Trentonski, Shakespeare and Ruby against
the new school law Well, this is for
midabIe array, but we doubt whether either
Of these great men rs authority on the Texas
school system. Trentonski is eloquent on
the subject Of education, but does the writer,
who quotes him, want the negroes fitted for
sitting down on the elegant sofa in the
saloon Of the French Marchainess, ifsO, he
is not likely to ever witness the spectacle
Shakespeare said, ''who steals my purse,
steals trash, . but what has that to do with
common schools in Texasl Has anybody
except the radical officials been stealing
from the children of Texasg Ruby may
write elegant letters, as the schoolmas-
ter calls them, but the extract given is any
thing but proof Of it. This writer may be
a learned man but he evidently don't know
what he is writing about.

With great pleasure We lay before our
readers the call for . Democratic State Con-
ventioD by Col. Winkler, the Chairman Of
the State Executive Committee. The ad-
dress Of Col. Winkler is in good taste, to
the point, and breathes the true spirit. It
has our most hearty apprObatiOn- The place
selected, the city Of Austin, win, we doubt
not, give more general satisfaction and Sc
cure larger attendance than any other at
the season Of the year, when the Convention
will assemble.
Austin has ample accommodation for any
amount Of people, delegates and Others,
who may attend, and is always healthy dur
ing the fall months, being entirely free from
epidemics Of all kinds. We believe the
coming Convention win be the largest and
fullest represented Of any ever held in
Texas.
Now let the democracy go to work every
where, and organize completely, as ad-
vised by the clear headed, patriotic chair
man. There is no time to lose, as a month
and half only intervenes between this and
the meeting Of the Convention.

THE Houston Telegraph, in rather
mixed up article, containing some printers
blunders, we suppose, tells US that ''eattle
is plural and doubts the conviction Of any
man, stealing one COW OF bull, under law,
which forbids the stealing Of ''any cattle .
It says, that the words, ''any cattle, y in com
mon parlance means more than one. Law
yers viii disagree, but We think the phrase
s'any cattler would clearly include the steal
ing Of one, and the Judge, who would de-
eide otherwise, would hardly be TT for his
place. Brother Webb does not clearly un-
derstand the meaning Of the word any, We
think, which conveys the idea Of unity.
Let him consult Webster.
