The first ballot for candidate for Governor stood thus: Richard Coke 309, Charles Demooz 143. John Ireland 113, C. M. Winkler 106, R. D. Walker 75, Scattering 9— necessary to a choice 474. On the 5th ballot, yesterday, In the Democratic Convention for candidate for Governor, Richard C ke, of Waco, received G59 votes—more than two-thirda of the entire vote—and was declared the nominee of the convention. When the vote was announced, Col onel Hubbard, the only opponent of Coke in the last ballot moved that the nomination be declared unani mous. The motion passed unanimously amidst the throwing up of hats and the wildest excitement. Judge Coke was called to the stand and in a short speech, thanked the Convection for the honor be stowed npon him. Colonel Charles Stewart of Hous ton, moved that the Hon. It. D.

Hubbard was then declared the unamincus choice of the convention. Stephen H. Darden, ot Lockport, waa then unani mously declared the choice of the convention for Con troller. The following are the leadiDg points of the platform adopted by the Democratic State Convention: After the usual preliminaries, the Convention con gratulates the people on the repeal of many of the odious and oppressive acts passed by the Republican Legislature. They proclaim that, when the Demo cratic party comes into power, they will administer the government in the interest of and for the benefit of the whole people, and not of party end, Howeverso- o much they heve been provoked to hostile and re- talitory measures by outrages committed on them by Republicans and State government. It will be a part of the great mission to rise superior to their just re. sentments and restore the government in such man ner that every citizen of whatever politics, religion nationality or color shall feel he is really protected in his life, liberty and property; that the Democratic party affirms the past opinions and policy it has ever pursued; that it is bound n duty of State to maintain an efficient system of common schools, and to insure means to secure a common education to every child in the State ; and thatffvery adopted citizen may enter into the spir* ’•-* t perfect freedom, and act in matters of council. 27j, Democracy of Texas declare it to be their firm e °Wiction that legal interference in the merely social hiL;ts of any class of citizens of the United States, whether native or of foreign birth, is contrary to sonnd policy, to geuaine Democracy, and to the en lightened spirit of the age. They favor the calling of a Constitutional Convention by the next Legislature. The Democracy of Texas adhere to their past policy of developing the materinl resources of the State and favoring the beat interests of the people by encour aging the construction of railroads.

There was no abatement in the excitement until near the close of bank hours, wheu a queiter tone charac terized the market.

To the Editors of thf. Herald: The remark is often made, what a pecuni ary blessing it would be to our State, to have ten such insurance companies as the South ern Mutual Insurance Company, to undertake the insurance risks of the State, where our people could effect their insurances at a mini mum point of cost, and save to the State tbe large amount of money which is now being sent out of it, to pay for such protection. Such desirable companies can be ’easily formed and put into active operations if our people would co-operate in organizing them. Adopt .the plan of the early friends of the Southern Mutual Insurance Company, and similar companies may soon be organized to realize the wish so often expressed, and be stow upon the State tbe benefits and inde pendence of a sufficient number of insurance companies to undertake all the insurance risks of our Stole. A mutual insurance company can be made sufficiently strong from its commencement, to provide for all ordinary losses, If it com mences with a sufficient number of polices in moderate amounts and prudently distributed at current rates of premiums. The income of tbe company would be more than doable the amount of its probable losses; and thus afford it ample means to pay all ordinary losses, and a large surplus to return as profits to the assured, or to add to its strength for more extended operations. The Southern Mutual Insurance Company has practically demonstrated the soundness of such anticipations. Twenty-five years ago it commenced its existence without any other means to meet its losses than its incoming premiums. It has promptly and liberally paid all of its losses, returned large profits to the assured, and accumulated assets exceed ing $500,000. Daring the last four years its losses have not exceeded 20 per cent, ot its premiums— from 1801 to the present time its losses have not been 30 per cent, of its premiums; and during ito twenty-five years of business opera tions its average losses have been less than 35 per cent, of its premiums—thus showing that the rates of insurance premiums cbarged|in our State have been much in excess of the degree of hazard; and by virtue of its mutual feature, the excess returned as profit to the assured, and been an efficient agent in saving the money of the State. What has been done so successfully by the Southern Mutual Insurance Company may be done by other similar organizations. Why not put into existence many more such com panies? Have wo not other business men, equally energetic, prudent, and enterprising, as those few who so successfully organ ized and gave life to the Southern Mutual Insurance Company ? If such talents and ability be limited to the citizens of Athens, then, for the good of the State, let the additional mutual companies be located there, and placed under the contract of its wise men, to secure their success. In Marietta a similar mutual insurance company (the Mutual Protection Insurance Company) has been organized and in opera tion for a year past, prudently progressing and accumulating strength, and now return ing to tho assured fifty per cent, profits on its past year’s business. Why not organize a similar company in your enterprising city? If suitable persons for its managers cannot be obtained among your own citizens, invite such from Athens to undertake its direction. Wm.

They are op posed to granting money subsidies by a State to build ing railroads as unequal in the distribution of benefits and burdens and unjoat in principle. The conven tion denounces as false and slanderous, the imputa tion sought to be attached to the State of Texas by her enemies, that ahe contemplates the repudiation of any of her legal liabilities.

Tbe report of the Convention is signed by Jno. H. Regan, chairman, and other members. The following resolutions were unanimously adopted: Resolved, that we deprecate the action of denouncing of members of Congress who co-operated with the Republican majority, and President Grant in the passage of the back salary bill.

Byron waa announced as third on the programme, but when the first act was over it was discov ered that he had as yet made no preparation for his part of the show. Byron started out of the room to look something up. He pro ceeded to the nursery, where he found a child’s rocking horse, made of pine wood, or, as the English call it, deal. This he ordered to be taken down stairs and placed on the stage, immediately behind the curtain, as the second piece was already over. When the curtain was rung up he was seen standing be hind the horse iu an attitude that would have done credit to a circus master. “ Ladies aud gentlemen,” said he, pointing to the horse, “this represents ore of the islands in the Greek archipelago* Del-os.” Then the curtain came down amid the applause of tho audience. But this was not all. The curtain went up again, and Byron, stepping forward, said: “Ladies and gentlemen, another island iu the Greek archipelago, Sam-os.” Kenduskeag, Maine, is very much excited over a mysterious, well dressed, gentlemanly looking stranger who inhabits the woods in ^ ^ ^ the vicinity of that town and never appears i Three room house’, Magazine street*.....! 12 50 upon the road.
