Judge Ireland's home organ, the Guada-
lupe Times, as other publications. of that
ilk have done, by innuendo ascribes to the
STATESMAN the authorship OF the late "Se-
cret Circular We had regarded this doc
ument as OF no importance, and hence have
avoided giving it any notoriety. But since
Judge Ireland attempts to throw the Demo
cratic party into ridicule by noticing it off
cially, It becomes necessary to speak more
definitely OF it. The "Secret Circular is said
to have been pleasantly of Judge VIM.
Alexander, and to have been circulated by
him as q joke. Thus a jocularly ironical
address to Democrats, in which this well
known Republican defines alleged faults
and foibles and tricks of the wIre-pulh
ers, is made the subject of most absurd no.
tice. The whole OF the circular amounts
to but little, but to the amusement of
everybody, out steps the illustrious Ire-
land, and, over his official signature, de-
mes for and in behalf of the party the
authenticity and the purpose of the pro-
duction. Does Ireland think the people,
fools2 Could any man read the pasquin-
ade and fail to see its purpose Then why
should Ireland give it this extraordinary

ADVERTISE the ,'Secret Circular" and make
every man in Texas seek copys Nobody
would have given second thought to the
late ''secret circular" Of t. N. If it hsA
not been, as he desired, harshly denounced.
Then every reading man and woman
wanted a copy. and thus Judge Ireland,
IN his official capacity, is ever lend
ing himself to the service of the enemy.
He doubts, as he says, the propriety of his
course, but he so loves to see himself in
print, with those pretty words, "ChM'N
Dem. Gent. CON-, " after his name, that he
could not keep his mouth shut All the
little personal thunder-pumpers of the Judge
win reproduce his terrible illumination
against the terrific ''secret circular" new
and revised edition will necessarily be pub
lished TO meet the demand for it created by
the Judges proclamation, and thus the very
evil which the Judge inveighs against
is surely contaminated. The Judge is
always putting his foot in it and
now he has shown such an infinite
want Of practical good sense, and such an
inordinate love OF notonety, that he will
surely lose his craftsmanship. But he has
energy and earnestness and loves to work
and is tireless in making himself conspicu.
Gus, and perhaps no other man would labor
as assiduonsly as the Judge, and his sublime
folfes may be condoned, because of the
purity Of his intentions. But he is making
thick, strong flooring for that abode OF
the DID, said to be paved with good in.
tentions We rather think, however, that
the best service the Judge could render him
self and our party would be in stepping
down and out. 1t is deemed unwise to pub
lish the text of this, Irelsnd's last public
effort. It's suppression is justice to the De
mocracy of Texas. "a h.,

MIR. CHARLES NoRDHoFF, in recent let
ter to the New York Herald, hits the nail
squarely on the head when he says: Gen
eral manhood suffrage is undoubtedly a
danger TO community where, as in these
States, the entire body of ignorance and
poverty has been massed by adroit pollti-
clans upon one side. The attempt to con-
tinue for even four years longer such state
Of things as Gen. Grant has, by Federal
force, maintained in Louisiana, would either
cause necessary and entirely justifable re-
volt or totally destroy society. There are
scores Of parishes and counties where the
colored voters are to the white as four, six,
eight and even ten to one; where, therefore,
ignorant men, without property, and with
no selfrestraint or sense of honor in pecu.
mary trusts, would continue to rule abso-
lutely; to levy taxes which Others must
pay; to elect judges and tiduciary officers
out of their own number, to be the tools OF
the least scrupulous and the most greedy
wretches in the community. There are TO-
day scores Of parishes and counties in
Louisiana. Alabama and Mississippi whefs

TT DEFENDS UPON WHOSE OK III n
100. "a THAT'S CORED. 80

I The NewYofk World says that in the
event Of war with Mexico, Galveston and
other Southwestern cities would drive a
fourishing trade with quartermasters and
commissaries, and with the rest OF the
hangers-on and incidents of an army, at
the cost Of the people of the East. Sup
pose this true, we Of the Southwest could
never get even. The World surely can
never forget what we have lost through the
past thirty years of protection" and the
last ten Of prohibition" We have been
plundered, too, by infamous navigation acts,
which prevent the shipment of Southern
products to Eastern ports, save on Yankee
vessels manned by Yankee seamen. We
have paid bounties to Yankee fishing smacks
and bounties TO Pacific steamship and rail-
way Iswindles and credit mobiliers, and
now the World would impose perpetual
burden upon the West and South, making
us pay in gold, instead of greenbacks, the
face value of bonds that cost the holders
perhaps sixty or seventy cents. Thus our
proyincIalism is to be perpetuated. The
bayonet is withdrawn, Grants grasp upon
the Threats of States is relaxed
in behalf of the Shylocks of East
ern cities. and the bond of Union
is q river Pactolus flowing from the South
and West, converting Manhattan and New
England into sand bars, like those studded
with brilliant stones that dot the channel of
the Mississippi in summertime, from St.
Louis to the, sea. 1t would be a fearful
crime If the Southwest promoted war with
Mexico to make money for the Southwest;
but it is pleasant and proper and eminently
wise of the New York World to inveigle us
into the meshes of its peculiarly selfish and
deyilish Democracy in order to plumber
these provincial States, in behalf of the i'm
perial East, forever. Democracy is good
thing in its philosophy, but we would have
none of the sort expounded by the World.
Hard money is an admirable system if it
would not cost US certainly five hundred
millions to attain it and an eternity of bond
age to practice and perpetuate it.

The Waco Reporter says the government

On the contrary, editors are the very last of

But Mr.. Clay was pure republican in al
his original instincts and loved freedom
and loved his country and was self-taught,
like Andrew johnson and Andrew jackson.
In fact, the lives of our great men and
the examples of those smaller adventurers
in State and Federal politics and the his
terry of the rulers of all nations show that
men are made dizzy by elevation, selfish
By alulatiou, despotic and selfish and dan
gerous By good fortune, and that upon their
early training depends the last grandest
acts of their lives, determining finally
whether they were originally nurtured by
the government or by the family, and
whether their ultimate allegiance was due

We don't entirely like the whipping post,
but how the five thousand thieves that our
courts will soon send to the penitentiary are
to be disposed. of without it, we don't ex-
Actly see. Must each county have its own
penitentiary or work house9 If these des-
peradoes are manageable without the
lash, must more degrading and brutal
modes of punishment compel obedience?
The ball and cham and sweat box. and
other devices, are equally inhuman. Wild
beasts, on two instead of four legs, are to
be mastered, and made to support them
selves by toll, and nothing less terrible than
the lash, prison managers say, win effect

anthropic people, who stand outside and
look on, think differently, and weep over

The commerce between different towns

JUDGE REAGAN AND FREE SCHOOLS

In one of his recent speeches Judge Rea-
gan said substantially of the Texan system
of free schools, that it is not only burden
some to sparse populations, but inefficient,
and, he might have added, intolerable.
There are over 400, 900 children in the State
within the scholastic age, costing the State
annually for education over three millions
Of dollars This would not be borne even
by old and wealthy States. The Judge said /:
! 81 never could see the right that had to
make another man pay for the education of
? my children. / cannot see the justice of it,
and do not, therefore, approve taxation for
this purpose. I would be in favor of setting
apart, as school fund, one-tenth of the
annual revenues, but would levy no special
school tax. I'VE also have magnificent
school fund in lands. The present school
system was made for the benefit of the col
ored people, and was part of the Radical
plan for enriching and benefting themselves
and the negroes, and of Furnishing and i'm
poverishing US and confiseating what little
property the war left us. If to me was con-
fided the making of constitution I would
have it contain the usual bill of rights
would divide and partition the duties and
powers of the different departments Of gov
eminent, SO that one could not encroach
upon and interfere with the other Besides
doing this l would do little more. A con.
stitution should be short and plain. Ever
the Constitution Of 1s45 has more in it thar
in my Judgment it should have, and one Of
the greatest objections to our present Con
stitution is, that it is burdened with legis
lation. Questions of policy or of tempo
rary nature should never find their way intC
code of organic law"
