Hon. Richard y. walker.

In our last issue we published q COM
muuication from San Augustine signed
"Citizen,n recommending Judge Wal
ier for a position upon the Supreme
bench of the State. The writer Of the
communication is one OF the ablestand
musI INFLUENTIAL citizens of san Angus
tine, and well acquainted with the SEN
timent of the people of that section.
He is furthermore not "a politician, but
a substantial citizen, who feels a deep
interest in all that pertains to the vel
fare and interest Of the state. When
he suggests the name of Judge Walker
for the Supreme bench, he only eX-
presses the opinion and wish of nine
tenths of the population Of Eastern
Texas, where the Judge is most in
timately known. Not only 50, but
Judge Walker, as a profound lawyer
and thorough iurist, and honest gen
tleman has a reputation throughout
the limits of the state second to that
of no man in the State, and his eleVa-
ton to the Supreme bench would be
hailed with pleasure and pride in all
sections of the State.
In this connection we desire to call
attention to the fact, that Southeastern
Texas, in which we include all the
counties east of the Trinity river and
south of Smith aud Harrison counties.
has for the past twenty years, been en-
tlrely ignored in the parcelllng out of
State officers. From the counties Of
Anderson, Cherokee, Rusk, Pamela,
Shelby, Sabine, San Augustine, Nae
ogdoches, Angelina, Houston, Trinity,
Polk, Liberty, Chambers, Jefferson,
Orange Harden, Newton, Jasper ana
Tyler, there has not been selected eth
er by election or appointment single
State official for the past Two decades
within our memory. This is not be-
cause this section of the State has
been wanting in rs good talent rs any
other section of the State but 1t IS
simply because il has been Outnum-
bered and outgeneraled IN the scram-
bic for position. We think it time for
the people of these counties to step
forward and assert their rights, and
demand that their almost solid demo-
cratic majorilles shall in inc
future have fair share IN the
offices of the State. For Il
position on the Supreme Bench, TINS
section of the State, claims in Judge
Walker a lawyer of0s much efudllion
and ability, and of AS great fitness IN
all respects, as any man III the Whole
State. Shall we have our choice, or
are we to be again and forever lg-
nored and taboeed because more

the pain is felt under the shoulder
blade. and it frequently extends TO
the top Of the shoulder, and is some
times mistaken for a rheumatism in
the arm. The stomach is affected
with loss of appetite and sickness;
the bowels in general arc costivc,
sometimes alternative with lax; the
head is troubled. with pain, accom-
panied with dull, heavy sensation
in the back part. There is generally
a considerable loss Of memory, &C
companicd with 4 painful sensation
Of having left undonc something
which ought to have been done. A
slight, dry cough is sometimes an at
tcndant The patient complains OF
WEAKNESS and debility; he is easily
startled, his feet are cold or burning,
and he complains of prickly sensa-
tonof the skin; his spirits are low;
and although he is satisfied that exer-
else woald be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up iortitude
enough to FRY it. In fact, he dis
trusts every remedy. Several Of the
above symptoms attend the disease,
but cases have occurred where few
OF them existed, yet examination OF
the body, after death, has shown the

Radical Desperation.

The following letter the Union and
american says was addressed to Chief
Justice Nicholson, by one of the most
distinguished Congressman from Tens
nessee. We give it place in our col>
umns because we believe it will be Of in
terest to our readers and is as the
Uuion and american says gloomily sug-
gestive.
you will remember when 1 was at
home that / ventured the prediction that
the Radicals would agree upon finance,
revenues and civil rights, and then enter
largely upon the outrage business. Events
are proving the correctness of my judg-
ment. The end is not yet Wien the
Arkansas and Louisiana questions are
considered, think you will be startled
at the demonstrations made upon our
hitherto republican form of government
The leaders of the Republican party
are the most desperate and malicious
set of men ever at the head of Govern
ment. The great fear is that that con-
tingency of public affairs, which many
have believed that Grant has purposely
PLAYED for, to,wit: when, in absolute
distraction, the people will accept a
stronger Government is fast approach
ing. The great heroism now being
shown by the people of Louisiana seems
almost the only hope Of popular liberty
| God preserve them in their patience. 1t
seems providential that they can endure.
| If perchance they should strike, no one
could tell the end If perchance some
act of folly betrayed them and our
| cause, and the cause of free institutions,
| how vain our regrets-hOw incalcula-
BILE the injury. Let them stand as now.
| The CUmmittee from the House, that
went down to Louisiana, will make q
report that will sustain them inst the
! coming message of the President and
/ the ISLANDERS of Phil Sheridan. Let them
stand as now and the Republican party
cannot carry the North. Thought
| Radicals will not sustain the Presi-
dent. The Disconnected poor who are
unemployed will not support a party
| who neglect their demands to elevate the
negro. Capital will grow timid in its
| allegiance, aud then will JOIN US at the
| ballotsbox, if only we may reach that
point say, if only we may reach it
| The whole purpoIs of Grantism is now
to control that by the bayonet State
f! governments are to be overthrown or
| placed under military control, in order
10 determine the next Presidential cleo
ton. Only once in my life haYe
ever seen the same deep anxiety and app
prehension in the public mind, and that
was in 1861, preceding the firing upon
Sumter The proclamation sought by
Phil Sheridan, had it been given, would
have been that would it not2 We
