The Texas Incendiarism.
Every mail from the interior brings fur?
ther accounts of the spread of the incen-"
diarisin through the State. "We last week
;mentibned the burning of Henderson;?
The particulars of that "fire we have re
.ceivacLat last through the Galveston Ci?
vilian of yesterday, (Wednesday.) We
copy :
Mr: P?sbury, -a merchant of New Or?
leans, and son of the late Hon. T. Pils
bury, of Texas, called on us this mornihg.
He is direct from Henderson, and fully
wnfirms the report of the chsastrous fire
in that place. It is fully behoved by the
?citizens to have been the work of incen
.. diaries. A negro woman belonging to a
?man named Herndon, who kept ? small
tavern, has confessed to having started
the fire; and her master and his brother,
who do not seem to have stood very well
in tho community, are charged with being
concerned in the affair. Herndon is ac?
cused of having dealt with slaves for stolen
goods.. The fire destroyed the principal
hotel, and all the business houses on both
shies of the street, leaving only a single
-store.? The loss is variously stated at from
$175,000 to $250,000. Fifty thousand dol?
lars worth of goods were burnt in the
streetj-after having been removed from
the stores: "' Both the HerndOns and the
negro woman were under arest. An in?
vestigation was iu progress, and many
?negroes had confessed to a knowledge of
a general plot for arson an d robbery. The
committee believe that this fire was a part
of the scheme, "and it was thought that
both the negro and the white man in?
volved would suffer capitally. The fire
left the citizens in a deplorable condition.
"The whole stock of groceries, &c, in the
?stores. had. been consumed, and many
families were reduced to beggary. The
.District Court was forced to adjourn for
the want of Accommodations.
Tho reported burning of Nacogdochcs
i& undoubtedly a mistake. Tho fire is re?
ported on the Gth. "We have tho Chron?
icle of the 7th, with the election returns of
pearly "the whole county. This shows
that it must have been printed on the
7th. ,
In Tyler County, we learn that the
utmost excitement prevailed on election
day, and that comparative^ /err persons
^J!?WV~?t~1}&-jjoit$. The Jasper Clarion
learns that ten negroes were arrested, who
confessed to being parties to a plot hav?
ing murder, robbery and arson for its ob?
ject. They implicated two white men
who\wcre not suspected, but who, it has
sUrce been observed, left immediately on
the breaking out of the excitement. The
Livingston Rising Sun mentions a report
"there to pretty much the same effect con:
corning Tyler County.
. The Cameron Sentinel says that the pa?
trol iu that town have, up to this time,
discovered in the hands of negroes two
double-barrelled shot guns, one single do.,
one Mississippi rille, one pistol, one^dirk
knife, poAvder, shot, &c. It does not cer
tainlyappear that the negroes had these
arms for any bad purpose. They have
bee l taken from them.
A plot was discovered in Hopkins Co.,
on the 4th instant, to burn the town of
Su'phur Springs, in that count}*, on elec
* tion day, or the day after. Some negroes
o mfessed the plot, and at latest dates it
was undergoing investigation, amid no
li tie excitement.
The reported burning of Dangerfield,
in Titus County, adds another to the list.
nn'fiaj^rfriy ueforc (\x0 election, a dis?
covery was .made in Busk, Cherokee
County,, of a design upon that town, the
.particulars of which wc have not yet re?
ceived.
We are informed by a gentleman just
down from Waxahatchie, that it was re?
ported there that Tyler, in Smith County,
and .McKinney, in Collin County, had
been burned. "We have before given our
readers accounts of the attempts on both
those-plaoes. "We fear tho reports are too
trie. ,
. At Moscow, Polk County, the Living
st>n Sun learns there was great oxcite
ment last week. A Mexican named Satt?
em .cz was run off.
These are all the" new reports received
by the-last mail. In view of them, let us
ask what is to be done? To bo sure, the
county committees are all doing their du?
ty well, and ferreting out the plots wher?
ever they have appeared. But it seems
that as fast as the fire is put out in one
town it is kindled in another, and no day
passes but that the flames are rising in
some portion of the State, kindled by the
torches of abolitionism. Qught not some
action to"be had by the State at largo?
Apropos of this course is a letter from a
distinguished citizen of -Washington Co.,
suggesting a State Convenoion, which we
publish in another column. Wo are in
dined to favor the suggestion, and ask
from the press and people some public ex?
pression in regard to it.?Houston Tele?
graph, lQtk instant.

Result of the Election.?The election
for District officers took place on Monday
last. The weather was favorable, and an
unusually large vote was polled. It was
attended with considerable excitement,
and no little bad feeling. The former is
evaporating, and the latter will, wo trust,
in due time disappear. J. E. Hagood,

Hon. J. D. Ashmore.?Hon. J. D. Ash
more, our Representative in Congress, ar
rived in town, on Monday morning last.
At night, at 10 o'clock, he was serenaded
by a large number of his friends and ad?
mirers.
After several appropiate and well execu?
ted pieces by the Unionville Brass Band,
he proceoded in a forcible; earnest and im?
presso manner, to address his constitu?
ents upon the topics of tho day. After
briefly reviewing the positions of the differ?
ent political parties, he said, in substance,
that the hostility of the Black Bcpnblican
party to the institutions of the South was
of a dangerous, violent and alarming char?
acter, as was evidenced by the Harper's
Ferry raid, and-the insurrection in Texas.
That their leaders were bolder, their num?
bers more numerous, their organization
more perfect and their hatred more bitter
than at any previous time. By the elec?
tion of Lincoln, (which he regarded as
certain.) the Black Ecpublicans will have
forced upon us the issue for which they
have long striven. In that event he coun?
selled the South to resistance. Upon the
election of Lincoln, the Southern States
should assert their sovereignty by recall?
ing their Senators and Representatives in
Congress, and should immediately concert
measures for a dissolution of the Union.

Mr. Yancey in Memphis.?One of our
leading citizens has favored us with the
following extract from a private letter
which ho has received, dated Memphis,
August 15:
" Yancy, of Alabama, made the biggest
speech here, last night, I ever heard. He
spoke in a large open lot; and commencing
a little after eight, continued till nearly
one o'clock this morning, most of the
crowd standing all the while, and all the
the time preserving almost perfect good
order.
."I never saw such an instance of en?
chained attention, even where people
were comfortably situated for hearing;
and when he seemed t?~J\y ^iWrrg,- "laTgu
Trtrfiio^rg^rTcd: 'Go on, we will hear 3*011
till breakfast.' The speech has produced
a profound sensation."
[Charleston Mercury.
.?:-?>
No Compliments in Prayer.?We
have heard some prayers which were de?
signed to affect the hearer rather than to
reach Heaven. The following character?
istic anecdote of John Randolph is a
keen rebuke of the practice:
In one of his spells of repentance and
sickness, he was visited by a minister
who, at his request, prayed for and with
him. The minister began on this wise :
"Lord, our friend is sick. Thou knowest
how generous he was to the poor, and
what eminent services ho has rendered to
this country, anil how he is among the
honored and great men of the earth."
'?Stop, stop," said the impatient Ran
dolph, "no more of such stuff, else the
Lord will damn us both."
-<j>
A Den Broken Up.?The Vigilance
Committee of Allendale and Erwinton,
says the Barnwcll Sentinel, met on the
2d inst., and proceeded to the house of
the notorious Mclviua Night, (mother of
the Bob Night, who was expelled from
this place a few weeks ago.) The c?n
mittco numbering fifty-four of the best
men in the lower part of the District, in?
flicted severe corporal punishment on ev?
ery member of the dark family, but one.
threw down every building on the, premi?
ses, and ordered them to leave within
ten days, or a hundred fold dose would
be given. The old woman received on
her bare back, as her portion, twenty
five' lashos, her daughters thirty-nine
each, and her son a number too great to
be counted.
-o>-?
Alden at Large.?The notorious horse
thief James E., Bobbins alias Alden,
broke the jail at Sandei-svillo, Georgia, on
tho 17th instant, and is again at large.
He had, as we learn from a private letter
shown to us, made his threats that he
would-escape, and much to the astonish?
ment of his keeper and others, succeeded,
on the above named night, by boring
through the ceiling with an augur, fur?
nished him, it is supposed, b}* some mean
white man." At the same time, a fellow
by the name of Andrew J. Ncwsomc,
confined for negro stealing, effected his
escape by the same instrument, and in
the same manner.?Barnwcll Sentinel.
As a token of his gratitude for the ten?
der and skillful ministrations to him while
he was sick in tho Crimea, a British officer
has presented Miss Nightingale with a
watch of rare elegance. It is in a ring,
the cylinder of which is made of an orien?
tal ruby. Its diameter is tho fifty-fourth
part of an inch, its length the forty-seventh
and its weight the two hundredth part of
a grain.

A woman disguised in man's clothes
gained admittance to the Sons of Malta
lodgeroom in Hartford, the other evening,
and passed all the several degrees of ini?
tiation successfully until tho Worshipful
Commander came to apply the emblem.
Then the trick was discovered, the candi
didate being unworthy to receive it. The
affair has caused considerable excite-1
ment.

A man who is apprehensive of receiving
insults is -conscious of deserving them..
True dignity never can be approached
without respect. It has a coat of mail
which always keeps at a distance the con?

The pursvJt in which we cannot ask

best mediums in^bj^Stato for ndvertisers, so far as
"sewberry District is*?onocrncd, while it enjoys a
fair circulation in the surroumU^g Districts. The
terms for inserting advcrtiHcmcnts^re certainly as
reasonable as those of any other j?TnTWr"riithe

by contract.

strongest Sfatcs Rights stamp. Believing that the
Constitution under which the Confederacy of the
American States 'was formed, has been repeatedly
and grossly violated, and that "the Plantation
States" have been the" only sufferers?that the
Union of these States is no longer a policy founded
on the principles of right and justice, but that the
bond of Uniou is " the cohesive power of public
plunder"?the proprictjjB?rcfer that their journal
shall rather seem to be^Poutheru Extremist than
appear an unconditional advocate of the Union at
any price.

lowing reasonable rates of subscription:
