The San Antonio Herald says
that Mr.. M. Whildin, emigration
agent for the San Antonio Rail
road, writes to Col. H. B. An
drews, from Myalnsing, Penn
sylvania, under date of the 23rd
of August, that he has a large
party of Texas home seekers
who will move their families to
Texas this fall. Besides several
colonies there are 227 families of
non-stock-h holders who will ac-
company the party. The inten-
ton is to select 10000 acres of
land near the railroad and start
a young city of their own. He
thinks that the tide Of emigra-
ton once started will continue
with increased vigor. A dele
gate of Eagle Lake colony will
accompany the party, and Mr..
Whilden will remain with them
during their travels in Texas.

We learn that II. G.. Brooks,
Esq, who owns a large and val
liable tract of land near Haynes
vile, in this parish, is negotiat-
ing for its sale with party from
Illinois. This sale, if made, will
be the result of advertising. Mr..
Brooks having advertised his
property in two papers, received
in a very short time, the propo-
sition which he will very likely
accept.

Official Frauds.

how that State has been victim
lied by the rule of carpet-bag-
gers, and by what means an i'm
poverished people were robbed
under the forms of law. No won
der Senator Patterson pleads the
privilege of freedom from arrest,
and that Chamberlain did not
think it prudent to remain with
in the Jurisdiction of his own
Courts. The unearthing Of gross
frauds is an unpalatable bust
ness, but it ought to be done
with thoroughness, and the Of
tenders made to suffer the pen
atty due their crimes. When a
poor man is guilty of a petty
larceny, he by common consent
is hurried off to prison. But the
big rogues and rascals who have
the ingenuity to plan and the
skill to execute enormous frauds
under the forms of law too often
escape, and their crimes 60 I'M
punished. There has been so
much wickedness of leading Off
Gals developed within the last
two years that it has ceased to
shock the public mind as it
should. These developments
have too often ended in exami-
natious only. Such investiga-
tons by Committees are oflittle,
and even less, value than dis
missed indictments found by a
Grand Jury, and whenever the
Governments, National or State,
have the power to bring offend
ers to justice it should be done
promptly and impartially; the
more prominent too the criminal
the greater is the necessity for
vindicating broken law and out
ragged justice.
1t is a significant fact that the
last States redeemed from subiu-
cation have suffered most from
frauds and crimes. 1t is easy to
see why mere politicians have
therefore labored with such te-
nacity to prevent the Govern
ments of these States from pass
ing into the hands of new men
These could have access to the
public records and archives, and
expose the guilty parties. The
same holds true of the Federal
Government. This was a strong
inducement to the people to cleo,
Tilden and Hendricks. They
wanted the books looked over
and the departments all sifted
by men whose skill and expert.
ence in dealing with fraudulent
officials had been tested. Can.
dor may require the admission
that Carl Shurz is trying to dc
something in this line, but he
will be hampered in all his eff
forts by partisans who have spe
cial reasons for barring inquiry
and he does not and will not re-
celve the hearty support and CO.
operation which he deserves

leading men in the Republican
party have been identified, would
