to complain of hard times. Their stocks Of

Editors Democratic Statesman - Texas
Texasl Texasl Texas is all the talk over
here now. The enterprise OF the Interna.
tional Railroad has walked up this whole
Southeastern country. n my past weeks
travels have been pretty well through and
across the States Of tennessee, Alabama.
Georgia and south Carolina, and know,
with my own eyes and ears, Of the feeling
which this "raid Of the Texans as the
Jealous newspapers here call Il, has awak-
ened. The people have got the Texas
lever bad, and large numbers IN almost
every community in which ! have
been are making preparations 10 move. Re
ports nom the different delegates say the
same thing Of the communities in which
they are talking and working. There Is
now no question that this liberal entarprise
of the railroad viii result in bringing An
unprecedented flood of these Southern peo-
pie to Texas. They viii not all 90 10
Eastern Texas either. Many whom we meet
have friends out there already and win po
to the counties in which they live. Havinr
heard good reports before from those who
have gone ahead, this coming of the Texans
has stimulated their desire 10 90. and IN
consequence, they win pick up their traps at
once and makeod. Soyou see thismOvement
viii not result in good 10 the country lying
along the line Of the international Road
alone, but the whole State. It has been ar
ranged by the railroad so that the delegates
can remain here as long as they choose, in
stead Of two weeks Some will stay until
the middle of December, and longer IL
necessary. The delegates are, without o1-
ception, strong men, good takers and capa-
bic OF dong good work. More than that,
they are enlisted heart and soul IN the en-
terprise, and enthusiastic over their work.
They win remain until they see the inn
migrants on their way, or we'll ready 20 start,
furnishing some money in advance and see
ing that ell are fixed so that they will get
through TO their destination without trouble
or hindrance.
Lieutenant Governor Hubbard and Gen.
Robertson, who have visited Atlanta, Au-
gusta, Savannah. Charleston, and other
places, delivering addresses and perfecting
arrangements for the transportation Of inn
migrants, viii retuu to Texas tome time
during the present week, accompanied by
DIR. A. T.. Morris, of Matagorca, Major S.

The stream Of immigration started by
this liberal and practical enterprise viii soon

Star State. Though large in itself, It will
be small compared TO that which must fol-

TRADE.-We are informed by merchants
that trade in staples of all kinds is fully as
good in Austin this year as it was last;S but
in fineries there is noticeable falling of
on last years sales. Trade in agricultural
implements of all kinds is much better
than ever before. This is owing to immi-
grafton and the general thrift Of the
try. Our merchants, generally, anticipated
the disincliniltlon of the people to indulge
in fneries and luxuries, and Invested in.
them very lightly, combining their purchases
more particularly to actual necessities. f.

The Real Indian Drama.

The red-skinned pets of Congress gathered
on the reservation at Fort Hill are suffering
from ennui. The gentle savages are signing
for little excitement, and as there are no
sensation theatres on the Plains the Door
Indian has to get up real drama, spiced
according to his fancy. Being in playful
mood, the braves are thinking of getting ND a
performance on a large scale for their own
profit and amusement as well as the satistac-
ton of their Washington patrons. The
scene will open with the taking of
some Texan scalps, and grand sepsa-
ton effect will be produced by the
burning Of settlers houses The chief
interest of the performance will lie in its
vividness, and in reality real scalps will be
taken and real farmhouses be burned down.
The effect will be heightened by burning the
inhabitants ii@hey are fools enough to remain
in the theatre of operations When the NAV
is over and the braves are tired out with their
amusement Uncle Sam will send down BODY
of troops to escort them back to the reserva-
ton, where they will receive a new supply of
ammunition and be thanked in the name Of
their Congressional friends and admirers As
soon as the savages have recuperated and life
becomes dull at Fort Sill the performance
will be renewed.

Charity from . Lyric Point or View.
The noble response of the managers and
artists in the dramatic world to the calls of
the destitute in this city, as exemplifed in
the colossal entertainment projected by
Messrs. Wallack and DAILY, has not been with
out weight in musical circles In an inter-
view with Nine. Christine Nilsson, which we
publish to-day, that renowned artist and es-
Unable lady announces her desire and inten-
ton to give one grand musical entertainment
for the benefit of the poor before her departure
for Europe. In this lludable undertaking she
will be assisted by the principal members of
the Strakosch Italian opera company and
other eminent artists in this city.
Mime. Pauline Lucca, the reigning queen
Of German opera, and for many years one of
the brightest stars on the Italian stage, is also
DESTROYS of contributing her talents to tho
cause of charity The appearance of these
two Incompatible artists in the same opera
would be sure to attract the entire musical
public of the metropolis and would reflect un-
dying fame on their illustrious names. Then
Mr.. P. 8. Gilmore, of Peace Jubilee renown,
who has organized and carried forward to state
of efficiency the best military band in this
country, the one attached to the Twenty-sec-
ond regiment, is anxious, too, to take part in
such grand musical entertainment as we
have indicated. The leading vocal organiza-
ton in America, the New York Liederkranz
Society, which can place on the stage chorus
of two hundred skilled voices, will be another
prominent feature. Everything. therefore,
conduces to give the forthcoming entertain
ment the fairest outlook possible.

that was not necessary in this generation, and
the basis of which might have passed away

was no wiser than other capitals when by
this error she supplied her enemies in Ger

Two great themes attract the attention of
the preachers to-day-the death of Mr.. Sum-
ner and the great temperance movement
Always the friend of the oppressed, and since
their Acknowledgement the fast friend OF the
colored people, they naturally feel that the
nations loss is peculiarly their loss. This
evening" therefore, the colored people purpose
to meet in Republican Hall with the Shiloh
Presbyterian church, where Dr. Garnet who
has known Mr.. Sumner more intimately
perhaps than any other colored minister in
the city, will tell his congregation how true q
friend they have lost and how much, uncon-
sciously, perhaps, they owe of liberty and equal
rights to the great heart and broad intellect
and supreme eloquence of the deceased states
man. Other ministers, too, will doubtless
give expression to the sense Of grief and loss
which the colored people of the country
must now feel.
'sThe Crusade of the Women" is fruitful
topic just now for the pulpit and will be for
weeks to come. 1t will be the theme of Mr..
Underwood's discourse to-day in Bethany
chapel, and will, most likely, receive also the
attention of many other pastors beside. By
q resolution of the Methodist ministers, at
their meeting last Monday, one part of this
days service is to be devoted in all their
churches to the discussion of this subject and
to prayer for the success of the crusaders.
Paul preached gospel which, whether it diff
fered from that now preached or not, will
probably be explained in the Catholic Apos-
tolic church this evening; but why doubt
of its similarity should thus be thrown out by
the preacher we are at loss to know We
believe gospel as pure as that which Paul
preached is mlnistered to-day in thousands of
Christian pulpits throughout the world.
Like the temperance movement, the ques-
ton Of popular amusemen.s has occupied the
attention of pastors and church people for
some time. The relation of the Church to this
question will be discussed by Dr. Rylance, in
ST. Marks Protestant Episcopal church, this
evening. couple of months ago the Doctor
read an essay on this subject before the
Church Conference of Minister'S in which he
took very liberal and advanced ground in
favor of, and not against, amusements. He
does not think it is the Churchs business to
say what kind of music he shall hear what
books he shall read or how he shall enjoy
himself A correct religious sentiment is the
only cure for the degraded forms of amuse-
ment now prevailing among u.s. The Church
should create this sentiment first, and the
other will follow of necessity.
Rev. Fathers Damen and Garesche, the elo-
quent missionaries, will preach, the latter
to-day and both during the week, in the
Church of the Holy Innocents and DR..
Edward Beecher will make his debut in the
pulpit of the Blocker street Universalist
church.

brokers and stock spectators complain Of
business being dull in consequence Of the
currency question being held SO long in abey-
ance in Congress. They do not know what
the final action Of Congress may be, and are
unwilling to make contracts. If this were the
only evil of Congressional inaction upon the
currency question it would be little loss to the
country, for stock and gold gambling adds
nothing to the legitimate business or tho
wealth of the country. But, for other reasons

Hugo on the politics Of the Revolution, he is

Gun SUFFERING Pooh AND THEIR FRIENDs.-
"The poor ye have always with you but me
ye have not always" were the words of tho
Saviour Of men on deeply interesting occa-
sion. The poor, in seasons of prosperity, ara
too liable to be forgotten. In these testing
times, however, they have been forced upon
our attention; and it is pleasing to think that.
if now we have the poor with us in a very en-
phatio sense, the spirit of the Master still re-
mains in the hearts of His followers. Our
pictures of poverty are painful but the out
flow of charity gives to the dark cloud the
silver lining Our columns this morning
show that the suffering is as severe and as
widely spread as ever. They also show that
the public mind is fully alive to the situation.
and that great and laudable efforts are being
made to relieve the existing distress The
police captains have become as fully alive to
their ability as to their responsibilities, and as
the result of their special efforts some of the
wards Of the city are nobly responding to the
call Of duty. Let the good work go on, and
let it not be forgotten that whatsoever we do
to q disciple in the name of disciple shall
have disciples reward.
