TEXAS NOT A TREMBLING SLAVE.

Some Of the members Of the lcgislN-
ture betray All over cautiousness in
handling the constitutional conven-
ton question. They have an idea that
the calling together Of sucl, u body TO
remedy the defects of the present con-
stitution would attract The attention
and arouse the wrath Of Grant and
bring about interference in this state.
What is to be dreaded IL Il mystery.
Certainly we have not arrived at that
degree Of fawning degradation that we
dare not call convention 10 remedy
the defects of orr organic law, without
waiting for nod from The whiieh house
before proceeding. Nothing inimical
to the general government, revolution
AIRY in character or subversive of the
consultation of the United States and
its amendments is contemplated, and
for Texas TO be put, even by influence,
in the position Of u trembling oulprt,
who Is hangingupoa the frown or smile
OF any man, is abhorrent to freemen
and disgraceful To the mind that could
conceive of such shame There is no
more excuse tor any military us,rpa-
ton in this state, growing out of the
meeting of the constitutional cunven-
ton, than there il in the present srs.
sion of the legislature. If the presi-
dent needs an excuse he viii find one,
whether the convention is held or not ,
80 let us have none Of the hat-in- hand,
by your-leavepolicy. Away whit. We
are not slaves nor Ito we Intend to he.
rexascau be loyal to the constitution
and the laws and respect herself sufi.
ciently to manage her own affairs with
out waiting FOR the permission of even

rmn nIr.L Auour r.EeAL NOTICES

The bill TO provide for the publlca'
tlon OF all legal notices 10y the press, as
we'll as by the form of posting nj the
court house, will shortly be introduced
into the Legislature, and We trust TINT
" will receive, ut once, the favorable
consideration Of that body. II ~ n mo-
torlous Tact that the present mode of
publication 10y means Of Il mere posted
written notice Is n fruitful source of IN
Justice TO all parties concerned. But
few zee 1t, and often notices involving
important interests never reach tne
parties they are intended for. Thepeo'
pie look to the press TO keep them In
formed Of all public matters, and legal
notices are, In one sense, matters ofPnb-
lie interest. The press, as the recognis-
ed vehicle Conformation, Is entitled to
whatever support the publication Of
notices may give IL, just as the bar Is
for It's share in the active machinery OF
the law. II asks charity OF no man,
but requires that II shall be paid for its
labor. The necessity and justice ofthe
proposed law are too plain 10 all who
have examined into the evils of the
present system. With such n law In
force ms the one proposed, there will
then be absolutely no excuse for mat
tention or forgetfulness The notices
will be published, and ifmen will not
read enough to keep themselves inform
edabout what is going on around them,
Then they deserve to suffer and litigate
IN the dark.
