WEDNESDAY MORNING::::: NOV. 20.
The State Convention.—The General
Order published elsewhere this morning,
fixes the place and time of meeting of the
State Convention, recently elected—De
cember 9th. 1867, at Atlanta.
The General Commanding has acted
promptly' in calling the Delegates together*
and we congratulate these gentlemen upon
the fieu that their official lot has been so
pleasantly located. No city in the State
can present superior facilities to render
strangers comfortable; and no people
could do more to make a sojourn in the
city agreeable, than will be done by the
^•(.plchere. The Union residents are nu
merous, and will extend a hearty greeting
lo the members. A comfortable hall w ill
lie provided, of ample dimensions, and No.
1 Boarding houses can be secured for all.
Atlanta may yet become the political cap
ital of Georgia, as she now is the commer
cial centre of the State.
The News.—The approach of the extra
session of Congress is increasing the in
terest of the intelligence from the Federal
Capital. The dispatches this morning con
tain a number of interesting items, signifi
cant of the future policy of the Executive
and Legislative Departments of the Gov
ernment.
It is apparent that the breach between
the President and Congress has not been
closed during the recess. The President
•eemed to be more defiant, while the
meml>crs seem determined. Of the result,
should a contest occur, there can be little
doubt. The extra session, which will ter
minate on or before the first Monday of
December, will be of paramount import
ance to the country'; whether for weal or
woe remains to be seen.
Letter from Texas*
Richmond, Texas, Nov. 10.
After a long silence, one ought to be
able to communicate something interest
ing, ; but such is not the case this time with
your correspondent. The yellow fever has
placed a quarantine on travel for some
time, and news too. ,
The people in the towns along the Rio
Grande have recently suffered severely
from a terrible tornado. Brownsville, op
posite Matamoras, has been almost razed.
The loss of life was fearful. Never have I
read of so large a number of deaths, from a
storm or tornado, among a population no
greater. This has indeed been a calamit
ous year for Texas. The yellow fever had
broken out at Brownsville a short time be
fore the visitation of the storm. The fever
has even reached San Antonio.
The deaths at Iluntsville, in a population
of ten or twelve hundred, were 162, up to
the 20th ult. At Navasota, in a smaller
population, the deaths, up to the time men
tioned, were 170. This is certainly a very
heavy mortality.
I learn from the Opinion, that numerous
emigrant trains are directing their course
towards Texas. They will receive a cor-
i dial welcome, and can buy, rent or lease
lands on easy terms. Provisions are cheap
er in Texas than any other State in
the Union, outside of the north western
region, and they are nearly as cheap as
they are there. Southern men, determined
to change their base of operations, can
find no place offering greater inducements
than a large portion of Texas. There is
hardly any part of the State in which a
man cannot raise stock for his own use,
with little or no expense. This year hav
ing been one of unusual disaster, we may
reasonably hope for some future exemption.
Early in the season, while the roads are
good, and the weather is mild, is the best
time for immigrants to move.
In northern and central Texas, although
immigrants have already commenced
pouring in, corn is still cheap, being only
from fifty to sixty cents a bushel.
Exaggerated accounts of the state of
society have deterred many from seeking
houses and comfort in Texas. This is one
of those errors which is bard to correct.
Since I came here, 1 have read accounts
of crimes, committed east of the Missis
sippi, surpassing any thing that has oc
curred in Texas, in the same time.
There is no talk of an election for Con
vention, nor is it likely that any orders on
the subject will be issued, until General
Hancock assumes command of the District
in person. This will necessarily be at an
early day. for old Jack Frost cannot much
longer delay his visit.
In consequence of the yellow fever at
Galve«ton and Houston, as well as its pre
valence along the lines of railroads leading
to these places, the Fall trade has been ex
ceedingly dull. On this account, the Win
ter trade, when it does open, will no doubt
be very heavy, and somewhat atone for
the dullness of the Fall season.
The cotton crop of the State cannot
reach 150,000 bales this season. This fall
ing off, in connection with the depression
of the price, will necessarily cause money
to be very scarce.
Sugar planters commenced rolling from
a week to ten days ago. The j ield is said
to be good, and the article manufactured
of an excellent quality. Those engaged in
the /‘sweetening*’ business will be flush
when they dispose of their crops, for sugar
commands, and will continue to command
round figures. Unfortunatel}’, sugur plant
ing never received much attention in Tex
as, her neighboring sister, Louisiana, being
regarded as better adapted to the growth
of the cane. Hereafter it will receive more
attention, especially in that portion of our
State in which cotton has proved two suc
cessive failures. Iter.

£35“ A special to the New York Times
says that there promises to be a strong
pressure to bear upon Congress at its ap
proaching session to secure a large reduc
tion of the tax upon cotton and woolen
fabrics. It is understood that Commission
er Wells will favor this reduction in his
annual report, if accompanied by a corres
ponding reduction in the tariff rates on the
same articles. Most of the manufacturers
now concede that the increased woolen ta
riff of last year has been a damage to their
interests. Mr. Wells will also recommend
the repeal of the cotton tax.
If the two interests named unite in their
efforts—which they should do. as they do
not conflict—they will soon force the Gov
ernment to abandon its present restrictive
policy.

Bankruptcy Decision in Richmond.—
Judge Bond, register in bankruptcy at
Richmond, Ya., has delivered an opinion
in regard to applications for bankruptcy,
similar to that of Judge Batch ford, of N.
York. It is that property acquired or in
herited after an application is filed is not
liable for the debts of the party applying
for bankruptcy. This decision, it is said,
will increase materially the number of ap
plicants in Richmond.
