it aa we did in the Rood old days (yes. the
good old days when carpet-baggers and soaUa-

chain*, bnt patriot* and men coold mako

our field* (and can Mr. D. “J’“W*™ 5?*
better off then than now ?) Wo will dodge the
fifteenth amendment, and erery question of
that kind; we will talk to the people nbontwhat
bad thing* tbo Legislature did when in aeaaion
at Austin’; we will br«R aliont tho taros—it is a
tender point when yon touch people a pockets;
we will smother up our misdeeds by making a
big fnsa about the (axes. (Taxes! The entire
expense of an honest State government was
$300,000—now tbo expense Ts $3,000,000!)
Now, I want to say a few words about there
taxes; and I here assert it, as an unquestionable
fret, that the taxes imposed by the present Leg
islature are less, in proportion to the purposes
bad in view, (ran any one tell what tiu of these
•• purposes" are T) than those of any State in the
United State. Tapplanre. ] (We cannot aee why
the “ applause" came!) And will tell you why:
the taxes amount to $2 on the $100 worth of
property, and a poll tax of $-—or rather $1, aa
tho poll tax for roads and bridges has been
hold nnoonstitntlonsl; also a little additional
tax to pay the interest on the frontier
defense bonds, which ia re trilling as to be
scarcely worth talking about, being after thia
year lea. than two and a half cents on tbe $100.
We will aay that tbo tax is $30 on tbe $1,000,
wbieb is about tho amount of property owned
by eaeb family in the State, and I make this
estimate thus: There are abont 1,000,000 per
sons in tbe Stale, and recording to oensns sta
tistics, each family oonsista on an average of
five persons, which would make 200,000 families,
and each family on an average will (the taxable
property being estimated at $2,®oo,<*K!,ooo) pay
$20 tax. and $1 poll tax, and what does be get
in return for tt? Ho gets clear of all cost what
ever, tho education of his children; (Governor
I>. styles arithmetic and geography nn “educa
tion ; as that is letter A, No. 1, and first-class
in tboseto bo “so-called"//-rr schools of Texas—
“free schools” to a wonderful extent, when the
intelligent while citizen is compelled to si
every son and danghter he has between cert
ages, to either a pnblio or private teacher, or
nay a fine of $25 for their non-attendance!
This may be nn education for Governor D., and
perhaps it is, judging from tho preduetion I am
at present quoting; but it will not satisfy the
Democracy!) he has an immigration bureau,
created to invite the sturdy immigrant to people
tbe wild lauds of our State, and enhance the
value of tboao already in cultivation; it estab
lishes a geological bureau to ascertain tbe value
of there lands, and develop the mineral resour
ce* of tho State. It Imilds Court-houses and
jails, and maintains the county prisoners and
indigent; it makes roads and bridges; sustains
yonr police, (which Utter may be styled u uni
versal sinecure) and judiciary—in fact every
branch of tbe State Government.
Query—Wonder if tho stealage is included in
the concluding cbm so of the last sentence f
“And now, I will tell yon how these taxes are
divided out: Thirty-seven and a half cents goes
to the support of the Legislature, State Govern
ment, Geological Survey, Immigration Bureau;
in fact, everything connected with tho Govern
ment, even to paying the intereat and principal
now coming doe of the debts created by these
tame Demoerata before tho war, who are mak
ing thia great to-do about taxes, f Applause.]
Tbe items under this head of old debts to be
paid alone in the appropriations amount to near
$70,000. Tho County Court can assess 25
cent* for roads and bridgos, and 2.", oents more
for tbe maintenance of prisoners, support of
indigent persons, building and repairing of
Court -house*, jail* and other county expense*;
bnt much the larger part of the taxeu goes to
the aupport of the public school*. (In this mat
ter of taxes can any three Philadelphia lawyers
nntangle this so called speech, so as to get an
iota of sente ont of it?) About * 112 «ms fo

(Two commodities with which the.Kadical mar
ket ia completely and abundantly stocked.)
The person telling you thia thing, if be calls
himself a Republican, yon will find to be some
old miser, too stingy to get married and have
children of hia 'own to send to school, or too
illiberal to give any of hi* hoarded doubloons for
the education of hia poorer neighbors."
So much for the speech of Gov. Davis: It
speaks for itself, “tzpedt Aercvlemand for
the party, “ex sms ditoe enrau
We know nothing of aeid Devia personally,
nor are wa solicitous to form hia acquaintance,
lie ia a man occupying a high public place, and
one in tbe olden days of honor; and aa such
public character we pas* judgment upon him in
accordance with thLnabner in which be dis
charge the trust necessarily placed in his hand,
by tho iniquitous manipulations of tho ballot
box! And how does he seem to be discharging
each a treat, reposed in such . manner’ The
most pacific oouree possible would be tbo beat,
for both parties and all conoerned, for the man
to pursue who is plaoed in power by an evident
minority of the voters of a commonwealth, and
there voters, too, oompored largely of the low-
cat grade of society. Vet, what baa Gov. Davis
been guilty of in hia Travis speech ? Ho charges
the Democratic party of the State of Texas,
without an exception, of being a “fraud,” of
being “Kn-Klnxes,” and of being a ret of mur
derers! Charges that the basest of his party
eannot endorse; and charges bearing the im-
g resa of falsity too plain not to be seen at once
y the most ignorant politician of either party.
Such speech or Grades are well calculated to
second tho doubtleso laudable efforts of the
Immigration Barren to enhance the value of
Texas lands, and to settle np rapidly the State
with law-abiding and peaoreble citixena. If
they are governed by the information gratia,
given in thia harangue, they will oertainly
keep aloof from Texas, for they will think the
“frandnlent” Democracy will defrend them; or
the “Ku-klux” Democracy will “Ku-Klnx”
them; or the “Six-Shooting” Democracy will
murder them. I leave His Impotency with the
public. ...
I have discussed my first and second showing
of disadvantages. I now enter my third with
the startling announcement of
“ xu-xlux is cabs comm,”
With tbe following additional beading : “ Bar
barous Whipping of Colored Men—Eight Men
Whipped with a Cowhide on one Plantation-
Intimidation at tbe Election for the Trans-Con
tinental Railroad.”
“ Wo learn from reliable sources that several
eases of Kn-klnxing have happened in Care
county lately. Bnt one hardly surpassed of late
in thia section of Texas, in oold-blooded atroc
ity god cruelty. On a plantation near Soott's
Mills, eight men were cowhided, while pistols
were held to them, nuking them submit to the
treatment The facta are well known to the
community in that neighborhood and will be
looked into. We shall have more to aay hereof-
ter on this case. ”
The above is from the Radical, of Jefferson,
and the “ reliable sources,” like many others of
like character in those sensation and political
capital paragraphs, is so altogether unreliable
as to hav* boon a myth, as there can be nothing
ascertained in regard to any Kn-klnxing in thia
coonty, in referenoe to “ Soott's Mills.”
I promised to write the resolt of the “ Dona
tion Election”: “For the Proposition” (to do
nate) received 541 votes ont of the 13G5 regis
tered voters, and “Against the Proposition” re
ceived 817. “For the Proposition” had to re
ceive two-thirds of the registered voters to claim
the donation.
We have niggers on the grand and petit juries,
and any quantity of them in tho militia; and
we have had too much dry and hot weather—
cotton damaged considerably.
I receive many letters of inquiry in regard to
tbe State. H. W. Bcuxeb.
adueniu.
This heading is added for the purpose of
apologizing for the low grade, intellectually, of
the Governor’s speech There can be no apology
rendered for its knatery and barbarity. The
apology is, that Governor D. is not sufficiently
informed as to political matters, and generally,
to be competent to make a respectable talk, or
he is so fnlly aware of tbe low grade of intelli
gence, and of morals of bis party, that be speaks
thus nnder compulsion, in order that the com
prehension and taste of his party may be secured.
BEHIND THE ECENEBY.
Tho practical operation of the now school
laws will tend, by their sinecnral provisions, to
increase tho strength of the party at the ballot
box, and will add but little to the general in
telligence or education of tbo people. I send
documents showing wbat this party ia capable
of doing. I wonder what next ? H. W. B.
