SAN ANTONIO, TEX, Jan. 9.-The fol-
lowing call was issued to-day:
sAN ANTONIO, TEX, Jan. g. 1855
I'd the People of Southwest Texas.
The state immigration convention re-
Gently held in Dallas awakened an IN
usual interest throughout the whole state
in the matter Of placing the advantages
of our state before the world, especially
to those seeking investment of i1le CAPT
tai or In quest of mild and healthful
climate and place which offers induce
ments for cheap homes to Industrious
and enterprisipg citizens. The vita i'm
portance of the work undertaken by the
state convention cannot be overlooked or
moderated. Ia that work all the
senatorial districts OF Southwest
Texas whose interests are pc
cullarly her own in our opinion
require the especial attention Of her
own people, in addition TO the great work
blocked out by the state convention, and
after an earnest consultation with gen.
tlemen who are Interested in Southwest
Texas that we have met with, we are
profoundly convinced that the interest Of
Southwest Texas calls for action on the
part of all who are Immediately inter-
es led In It's welfare. The planting Of
manufactures, the centralizatlon OF stock
interests, the opening up Of new lines OF
railway communication and the perfect
ing Of old lines, the converging OF all
scattered aud dividing interests and the
hRrmoRization of those apparently antag-
onistic, the unfolding Of our great min
sFal resources and the natural adVnnt-
ages of our incompatible climate for
farming and fruit growing, the neces-
sity OF our placing our vast cattle
and sheep interests on more secure
footing, so ena bling Us to more success
fully reach the markets Of the world, and
the securing OF deep water at convenient
point on the Golf coast, all these con-
siderations and others were urged as
conclusive reasons why Southwest Texas
should organize. 1t has therefore been
decided to Issue this call for convention
OF such counties as are interested IN the
advancement and development of South.

Antonio on the lst day of February, 1883,

THE TRUTHS or HISTORY.

If the course Of President Blu
Chanan on the question of coercion
and his policy with reference to the
States threatening secession are not
fully vindicated, it will not be for
the reason that he has not an able de.
fender in the gentleman who presided
over the Postofiice Department at the
close of his administration. The COR
respondence of General IIoratio King
with Mr.. Sanderson of Harrisburg,
Pa, printed elsewhere, would seem
TO leave little else to be said on the
subject; but we notice in the" Century
for January that Messrs. Nicolay and
Hay, the biographers of Lincoln, per-
sist in following up their assaults upon
Buchanan, without the slightest modi-
fication of their previous lines OF
criticism. Following is an extract in
illustration:
Buchanans course had been one professedly
of conciliation, but practically of ruinou,
concession. by arguments healmost justified
the iusuuection; he had acknowledged the
doctrine of nonooercon; he had abdcated
the rightful authority and power of the Exec
utiye; he had parleyed and stipulated Will
treason; he had withheld re.enforcements
Lincoln, receiving from his hands the preclou,
trust Of the Govelnment-not In its origna
integrity, but humbled, IMPAIRED, diminished
and threatened announced his purpose o
conciliation and not concession but cOnsery
alton and restoration.
The point which General King and
all the friends of Mr.. Buchanan make
is that so far as coercion, concession
Withholding Of e-enforcements, par
leys with treason, proffers of con
ciliation and all that sort of thing arc
concerned, the policy that prevailed
during the last months of Mr.. Bu.
chanan's administration and the first
months of Mr.. Lincoln's administra
tion-in fact up to the time of the
firing on Sumter-was one and the
same thing based upon Il steady pur
pose TO avert, if possible, the impend
ing conflict
The shot at Sumter settled the ques
ton, as ii doubtless would have done
had Mr.. Buchanan still been thC
Chief Executive. No human powe,
could then have stayed the rush t
aims.

How Sam Ward Cooked Ham.

HOW sam nhfu COOKcu u nam.
There are plenty of places in this city
where good hams can be purchased. Let
me give you one of the late Sam Wards
receipts for cooking ham, which / have
never seen in print:
Take large and fat ham weighing from
twenty to twenty-five pounds, parboil,
then skin il. Then take one teaspoonful
of powdered mace, one teaspoonful of
powdered black pepper, two teaspoonfuls
of powdered cloves, two teaspoonfuls
ofpowdered alspice one quarter of tea
spoonful of powdered cayenne pepper.
Mix the spices with enough brown sugar
to cover the top of ham one inch thick;
put the ham in q large dripping pan, into
which pour two quarts of port wine; bake
in hot oven, and baste frequently till the
ham absorbs the wine.
Now, sir, is not that dish fit to set be-
fore an American citizen or a "Roman

are inseparable. Relief can only be
