TUESDAY MORNING : !; SEPT u.
STATE BoNDs.

In a recent number Of the Gal
weston News II statement OF the
debt of the State is published, IN
which the State bonds issued to the
University Fund, and bonds issued
TO the Common School Fund, under
an act of tho Legislature OF No
vember, 1866 arc classified US Of
doubtful rdlidity, The san is said
of bonds issued to the Common
School Fund, under the act Of No
vembcr, 1864.
Under an ordinance OF the Con
stitutional Convention OF 1866, NO
XII, the Legislature was directed
at its first session TO provide for is
suing coupon bonds Of the State for
the 6re per cent United States
bonds, aud interest transferred from
the University Fund to State reve.
nue. ace lunt in 1860, and TO be
placed TO the credit Of tho Univor-
atty Fund. This was done to save
the 500, 10000 Of five per cent
United States bonds that were
granted to the University Fund by
act of the Legislature of February
18th. 1888, and which, by act of
January 81, 1860 were issued to
pay expenditures for frontier de-
fence. Tho bonds and interest 80
used amounted to Sl3+ ,I62. 20, and
by virtue of ordinance No. XII. of
the Constitution of 1866, the act of
November IL, 1866, caused the
bonds to be issued
Section two Of tho same ordin-
ance directed the Legislature that
bonds of the State should be issued
to the Common School fund for all
five por cent. United States bonds
and coupons, transferred from the
Common School fund after tho 2Sth
Of January, 1861, that were then in
the possession of the State, or that
might be recovered to the State
BY virtue of this provision, under
act of November 18th, 1866, bonds
to che amount OF elghty-two thou
sand one hundred and siXty.oight
dollars and eighty two cents were
issued to the Common School fund
How either class of these bonds
or the interest accruing on them
can be classcd IN Of "doubtlul val
ldity," we cannot see, and doubles
il will be u matter Of general inter
estao tho people OF Texas to Learn
by what authority, or upon wha
ground, the special correspondent,
Of the News classifcs them as such
Tho bonds issued to the Schoo
fund under act of November 18th
1866, were for amounts paid by rail
road companies that owed the
School Fund, and had, under tia,
and previous laws, paid their inter
est in Treasury warrants, bonds and
coupons OF the State. These may
be OF doubtful validity" but we
arc not sufficiently advised to pass
Judgment thereon. That it was
right for tho State to assume this
Indebtedness, to the extent that she
received from tho railroad compu-
MES her own paper that was issued
before the war, there can be little
question.
We believe it has been determined
by high Judicial authority, that the
acts of the Legislature passed dur

domestic concerns, and not in con.

MORE DEFAMATION AND ABUSE.

We shall continue the proofs that the
Democratic party intend to secure the
control of the SodOAern States by system
of defamation, abuse and intimidation. A
small and ordinary specimen of the first
will be found in the comments of the B,1.
lettn upon recent article in this paper
The New Orleans Times had affirmed
that an organization had been formed in
1874, for the purpose of securing the right
of suffrage to all persons, without respect
to color or opinion; that it was subse-
quently controlled by an accession of mem
bers, and placed upon military basis. II
The Bulletin concludes that the Times
was in error, and that the object of the
organization had been the same from the
beginning, and goes some strides beyond
and contended that the forcible expulsion
Of the State government was justified by
the nocturnal domiciliary search fol-
arms contemplated by the State gov
ernment, with a view to disarm the citizens
of New Orleans.
To this last we replied that no evidence
existed of such intention, and that no act
had been proved to render it probable.
We took the distinction between attempt.
ing to preserve the peace of the State by
the same means that the Pi6apme con.
tends the mayor Of village may employ,
and argued that the endeavor to prevent
the receipt and distribution of arms for Q
purpose then officially known, and now
avowed, to intend the armed control of the
election. was no invasion of the right te
bear arms. Nor was an attempt to recover
the property of the State taken forcibly
or otherwise, from its possession any in
fringement upon the same great principle
What would logical reasoner suppos;
to be the reply to this argument and de
mand for proof? 1t came in the syste
matte shape that the Democratic pro
gramme for 1876 has prescribed. Th'
original assertion of the New Orleans
Times was passed over. No exception
was taken in the srticle to the charge tina,
. peaceable organization TO secure sufng.

armed organization TO elect the Demo
