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. The Conn Headquarters, Th (Georgia.

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. “ThatShooting —Under the above head the Baltimore Sun, referring to the Wise- Pollard rencontre, pointedly insists that -gentlemen from abroad” shall not make a battle-ground of the streets of Baltimore, and well says in conclusion:—“It might be well. too. for the older beads of the South, before indulging the luxury of writing suc h letters as led to this encounter, to be think themselves of what may be the con sequence upon the younger ones who have not vet advanced beyond the false cduca- I "***” tionw hid, teaclios tliat sucli contests may, Cohrf.ctiok.-A late dispatch from necessary or honorable.” !

Judge Chase delivered an ad dress in Richmond at tiie dedication of the Normal High School for colored people, an abstract of which is given in our special dispatches elsewhere. The 11 ashington Star says: nc strongly advocated the education «f the colored people, and hoped there would soon be free schools throughout the entire South—schools in which there would be no discrimination. It is also stated that In an interview with the Rev. Mr. Hunni- cutt he rebuked him for his extreme Radi cal utterances as calculated to damage the Republican party in the South. — ■ y»- j^y~*The Washington Star says that John H.

Illinois sportsmen shoot wild duck* with 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. The receipts for duties on imports from Nov. 1 to Nov. 9 have been as follows: Boston $341,913; New York $2,498,031, Philadelphia $125 667; Baltimore $238,647; San Francisco, from Oct. 6 to 12, $160,132. Total, $3,366,390. Returns from the receipts of customs at New- Orleans have not been received for two months past owing to the prevalence of yellow fever. Instructions have be<*n sent thither by the Commissioners of Cus toms to furnish the returns. £7“ Fitz John Torter sought but did not obtain an interview with General Grant on the 15th, on the subject of his applica tion to have the sentence in his case set aside.
