(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 pore those measures, is either a knave ora fool (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. GUILFORD & HILL, Musical Emporium or Georgia. J ?) About $112 goes to this object, besides $1 poll tax, this all gore for tbe pnrpore of sending your children to school, free. Every child in tho Srate, without regard to edor, can now go lo a school and obtain a good education free of charge, a privilege never before enjoyed by the citizens of this State. “A quarantine has been established and en forced to keep disease of .contagions character from entering the State.
