THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, MAY 14, 1870. A LEAF FROM THE PAST The Texas KeTolntlon The Caasea that Led ( It. From th Ilomton (Taws) lelegraph, May 1. There is a general impresnion that the citi zens of the United States who immigrated to Texan under the Colonization laws came with the intention of revolutionizing the country and annexing it to the United States. There may have been some who cherished this idea, but certainly the leaders did not. They took an oath of fidelity to the Govern men t of Mexico, and to suppose that they did it with the intention of rebelling against that autho rity would be to impute to them bad failh. Austin certainly acted in good faith to the Mexican Government. Next to Austin, Ilayden Edwards had done the most towards introducing colonists into Texas. Yoakum says Edwards expended some $50,000 for tho benefit of his colony. It is not charged that Edwards acted in bad faith towards the Mexi can Government until Sauoedo, the Chief of the Department of Texas at Ban Antonio, an nulled Edwards' grant, and without permit ting him to make any defense, peremptorily ordered Edwards and his brother to leave the country. We give some of the causes that led to the Texas Revolution: All the colonists were required to profess the Roman Catholic religion. At first this was construed to imply nothing more than a general belief in Christianity. When it was rigidly enforced, and colonists required to bring their children to the priests for bap tism, it produced irritation. Texas was too remote from the seat of government in Mexico to have real grievances promptly redressed. Its legislative connection with the remote and purely Mexican State of Coahuila was most nnfortunate. Between these two poo ples there was no identity of interest and no sympathy. The law of colonization gave a preference to Mexican over American settlers. All con troversies before the Alcaldes were deoided in favor of Mexican litigants. The colonists were compelled to buy their necessaries of Mexican dealers, legitimate commerce with the United State being pro hibited. All traffio in negro slaves was prohibited. Children of slave parents introduced in the families of colonists were to be taught to read and set free at fourteen years of age. The first officers Bent to rule in Texas were not suited to the task. We have seen how Saucedo, Chief of the Department, arbitra rily banished the Edwards. lie was never known in a controversy between a Mexican and an American to decide in favor of the latter. Brtdburn, the subordinate commander at Anahuac, was even more odious than Sau cedo. Bradburn compelled servants to work for him without compensation, and permitted his soldiers to rob and pillage the people. In true Mexican style he threw citizens into prison among them, P. H. Jack, William B. Travis, and Monroe Edwards. Above all, the frequent changes of tho Mexican Government made it difficult for Texans to decide what course to pursue. Sometimes that Government passed most hos tile acts toward Texas. In 1830 a law was passed prohibiting natives of the United States from coming into Texas. Still later, orders were given to suspend giving land titles to colonists. Finally a list of persons proscribed was published. It in cluded S. M. Williams, the efficient Secre tary of Austin's Colony, Anson Jones, R. M. .Williamson, (three-legged Willie), W. B. Travis, Mosely Baker, John II. Moore, Caravahal, Zembrano and many others. The two Mexicans were seized and sent into Mexi co to prison, and the others would have shared the same fate but for the breaking out of the revolution. Still there were good men in Texas who thought the colonists should contend for the Constitution of 1824, and restore to Mexico such a Government as it enjoyed under Guadalupe Victoria, first Constitutional Pre sident. These parties (and some of them, like Colo nel Elias P. Bean, had fought for Republican ism in Mexico for a quarter of a century; thought Texas might become the means for regenerating Mexico, ana tnai me colonists ought, instead of declaring their indepen dence, to seek to reform the Mexican Govern merit. Stephen I. Austin bad contended so strongly for the rights of his colonists that he bad been for months thrown into a loathsome Mexican prison. When Santa Anna resumed the reins of power in May, 1834, he gave promise of great reforms. Austin and Zavala, the imprisoned Texas Commissioners, were released and courteously listened to by the President and Council, and reforms promised, Though Austin had done and suffered so much in tne cause ol Texas, wnen tne con eultation of 183r determined to organize a Provisional Government, llenry bmitn was elected to that office, having beaten Austin a few votes. It was thought Austin was too conservative, and that he placed too much faith in the declarations of Santa Anna, who bad released him from prison and made such fair promises to Texas. Suppose suppose the Texans had then determined to remain a part of the Mexican nation and to contend for their rights; sup pose they had coalesced with the true repub licans of Mexico; suppose the men who fought at San Jacinto had crossed the Rio Grande to Americanize that country, intro duce a sure enough republican government, and reduce the chaos there to order, with Sam Houston President of the regenerated Mexican Republio ? Suppose all this then what? HiMirtreon on Hell. At a temperance meeting at his tabernacle lately Mr. Spurceon lectured on bells. He was assisted, bsvs the Orchestra, by the Poland Street Temperance Hand-Bell Ringers, and by a cheir of six hundred children, be longing to the United Kingdom Band of Hope Union. The chair was taken by Mr. Thomas Hushes, M. P., who in his opening address alluded to the fact that the hand-bell ringers who were about to contribute to the evening's entertainment had the honor of performing before the Queen at Osborne, by special request. Mr. Spurgeon's lecture is a comprehensive view of campanology, in all its stages and varieties of development, from the period when Jacob kept his flocks with the aid of the tinkling sheep-bell, down to the noisy reign of the railway and muffin-bells of ' tha nresent dav. The subject was on this occasion profusely and admirably illustrated and enlivened by the two sets of performers already mentioned, and at intervals the leo- turer indulged the audience in his best man- X ner with some anecdotes and pleasantries, which were thoroughly appreciated. A. Rather Ferocious XT Ho is one Mary Bnce, of Athens, Tennessee. Her hubband having published her name as deserting his bed and board, the injured woman replies in this alarming style: "la reply to the notice in the I'vH in regard to my leoving his bed and board, he had none; he is mistaken, he had neither bed nor board, no left my bod and my father's board. As for running you in debt, it is something you could not do yourself, for yon can't get credit for anything. I understand you have made an application for a divorce; end now to save some lawyer from hard pleading for nothing, I will raino a publio collection, for I think the community will help to pay some good blacksmith to make you one out of good iron that will last you your lifetime; bo wnen yon got your divorce in jour pocket you will weigh heavier than yon ever did before, for you are a very light article anyhow. Now I have one request to make of the community that is for every body to give him a shake of tho paw, then he will laugh himself to death and I will get shut of him. Reppectfully, "Mary Bbice." 8EWINQ MACHINES. THE AMERICAN Combination Button-Hole AND SEWING MACHINE Is now admitted to bo far superior to all others as a Family Machine.
