at the cause; Since their power having been
so great, they having been so far advanced
in civilization, the arts and sciences, should
have fallen as it were headlong into the

themselves in arts Mid sciences. Lcok at the

that the remainin ' people endeavored to

and through effeminacy, when their mind
was from their conquests, arts, an d

Erido took the place of their better qualities.

consequence ? Their minds became weak,
their valor a nonentity, their agility a thing
forgotten. The noble lion-hearted minds of
their, fathers gone, and a cur's heart reigned
in their breasts; and when in an evil hour .
the eziarny came, where were their 'men- of
might, their men'or valor ? Gone! Rome
sunk, and all her noble grandeur paled, her
glorious conquests forgotten, and she fell
never to rise , again. •

risen in not only one out of many, but liter

very short time the rank of a Christian and

and what is more, high in the esteem of the
world. Whilst we have been plodding and
endeavoring to attain this grandeur ' we have
had no time to think of our pride, but now
- - when we stand and as an equal if not the first
in the rack of civilized nations, we do not
still endeavor to rise higher ! but , we rest on
our oars, and are slowly drifting. Where?
Look at our noble and patriotic7forefathers,
how they struggled; look at the almost in
surmountable obstacles they overcame in
combat for our freedom. Look:it the noble
example which we disregard; we are tread
ing rightin.the footsteps of degraded, de
based and', almost - sunken nations. We
think too much of "dress, personal appear
ance, the ldxuries of life, amusement, and
their accompaniments. ? Look at the rising
generations. What do they know? Do we •
instil properly into their minds the love of
science, or even common , sense? Talk to.
them about the learned arts, they stare -at
you with the almost vacant look of an idiot,
call you a bore, old fogy, and pass by the
glorious themes of science as if they were
things unworthy *of their notice. There is a

%From The San Antonia (Texas)Expiese.
Much of the, power of this nation rests
not alone with the support given' its institu
tions by our own people, but a vast strength
accrues, to as from the hold we have upon
the hearts of the masses of other nations.
While we are one of the acknowledged
"great powers" of the earth, we are not so
powerful but a combination of all other
powers would crush us like the grain be-
tween the upper and - nether millstone. In
this view we should not only make our soil
an asylum for the oppressed of all -nations,
but we should spread our "iree-tbinking and
free-acting" ideas broadcast over the world,
lire the hearts of the monarch's subjects, so
that when he attempts to join 4 a condAna
tion against us, his subjects will know his
object is to smother the beacons of liberty,
burning so brightly on our shores, and they
will revolt.
Here is,a vast national frontier of upward
of 700 miles, b,ginning"at the Delta and Rio
Grande, and following its tortuous wind
ings to El Paso del Norte; an Imaginary
line between two Republics, whose aims
are the, same, and between whom preju:.
dices spring up like mushrooms in the night,
across whose borders republican principles,
if executed in the spirit of justice, travel
with the speed of lightning, while wrongs
that oppress people and make them flee our
shores for an asylum among - strangers,
brings•utinto contempt among the people
of our sister, and in case of war, we would
probably find an enemy at our side where
we should find an ally.
It is our duty, the duty of this nation, to
establish a State Government upon• this
border,'embracing the most liberal ideas of
Democracy, a Government that the people
of Mexico would look upon• with envy,
speak of with admiration. and endeavor to
imitate.
During the short and' terrible 'reign of
Maximilian, tile cry went abroad that "Re
publics are failures," andthe hund reds of
worn-out heart-broken refugees estuiping
from our own bloody .revolution, and, the
persecutions of the cursed slave-oligarchy,
were irrefutable witnesses against Republi
canism. Happily this reign of terror hits
been swept away, but our unsettled condi
tion does not guarantee a stable government
upon this border. Inricibent Mexidans corn
ing to our State, are shot down, robbed and
outraged_ Thieves play ;heir infamous avo
cations across robbing our plains of their
cattle &id impoverishing the stock-raisers.
. The remedy is in our grasp, the West has
voted and proven herself to be a region,
peopled with loyal men. ' These loyal men
are organized with their faces set toward the
nation's star of empire: In the school of
persecution they have learned the proper ag
gression.
With the authority of Congress the dele
,gates to the Convention from west of the
Brazos will go into seperate Convention,
and frame a Republican Constitution, and
by.a bold aggressiye policy, tempered with
justice, rid the country of the ruffians, sub
jugate the disaffected traitors, establish
schools, hang murderers, and with the influx
of a . million sturdy Northmen, develop the
vast,., illimitable resources, inexhaustible
mmerable and agricultural - wealth, yet
buried beneath our soil. •

merely want of opportunity that prevents
the ordinary American from surpassing the
boasted proficiency of-the Russian. For-
