But on the whole, we are satisfied, that 'it is as good as any system yet devised. The whole mat ter of primary party action, has ex cited considerable diseusaioit, and no satisfactory solution has yet been reached. The delegate system would be as good as any, if the people would attend to the selection of dele gates, and see that men represented them, who were honest andunbias ed, and anxious only for the welfare of. the party. If left entirely in the hands of the politicians, it can hard ly be expected that the results will be satisfactory. We again urge upon our Republi can friends to attend the meetings on the first Saturday of September. If there are evils connected with the system, correct them 'by striking at their root, in the selection of your very best and most trust-worthy men as Delegates to the County Conven -1 tion. Din4r,ciiiiitLElMOlTlW • :kir Gen. J. J. REYNOLDS, who has just assumed command of the new military district of Texas, was sere naded on the evening of July 29. I He thanked the crowd for the comp liment, saying that he hoped but a few months would pass before, in ad dressing an assembly of citizens, it would be unnecessary to prefix the word "loyal" to one, class to distin guish it from another; that all would soon be proud to acknoweledge the flag of the United States as their flag and if need be fight for it. He add ed, that the principal cause of trouble in the State was from the fact that one class of people are teaching an other class that the laws of congress are not lawe; but that he bad been sent there to carry out the laws of congress, and would do it to the best of his ability. His remarks were received with cheers by his audience; and there is good reason for the be lief that the murders and outrages on Union people which , for three years have made a pandemonium of Texas will now be decisivety stopped. The real state of thing'' there hitherto may be judged, from` the fact that in 1866 there were 142 murders ; in 1867,1141 ;. and •since the beginning I of 1808, there have been 804. Gen, REYNOLDS was one of the most distinguished officers in the army .of the Cumberland, and covered himself with glory in Thomas's remarkable . defeat of Bragg .at Chiattmauga; after he had routed the right wing of our army. He is a man Of firmness, discretion, and immovable fidelity,..— A better daybfghlis for Texas and for the country' with his entry updn that. command.
