menaced it there and consummated their
hellish schemes at Baltimore. Now, that
their purpose is well known, does it not
become the duty of every patriot to foil
them hy electing Belh and Everett, ao3
rebuking both abolitionism and disunion
and save the country ? We have nothing
to say against Mr. Breckinridge; he is a
conservative, national man, and. no doubt,
would ignore those disunion leaders, who
would abuse him afterwards; but, then,
why will good men be led astray by the
cry of "Southern Rights,'' ''Southern Can-
didate," when it is ascertained to a car
tainty that Breckinridge stands no chance
of an election? He can carry but two
States—South Caroligt^and, probably,
Texas. Is it not, then, the duty of the
planter who would protect the value of his
property, the* mechanic and laborer who
has to earn the support of bis family by
his labor, to stand by the Union! Destroy
it, and your property is valueless, and your
labor is n^t in deurand, except in the tent
ed field, while your families are helpless.
Think of these things, fellow-countrymen,
and remember the last words of George
Washington. Oh, that we had au An'
drew Jackson or Sam Houston at the head
of our Government! but, as we cannot have
either,give lis Belí and Everett, wish Hous-
ton as Secretary of State, and all will be
right. The Union fires are burning bright
here. We have some faith that the move
of h few noble spirits in Galveston will
" fire the hearts" of Texans for the Union.
Our Club here is large and full of enthu-
siasm, and doing all they can to organize
the Unión elements throughout the State.
We will have a meeting tcnight. You
shall hear from us often.

Later from Walker's Expedition.
From the N. O. Picayune.
The schooner Isaac Toucey, Capt. Han-
sen, arrived at this port yesterday, direct
from Ruatan Island, the 24th ult.« On the
23d arrived at Fort McDonald the bark
Active, one of the little coasters plying be
ing between the main land and the Island,
direct from Truxillo the same morning,
with intelligence that a well artned force
of Hondurians, partisans of Guardiola,
numbering some nine hundred men, was
before that city, since the 6th in possession
of Walker, preparing to attack it.
The Active also reported that, on the
19th, an English man-of-war, name not
give u, made her appearance before Trux-
illo, and* demanded the surrender of the
port into the hands of the ejected author-
ities who alone, it was declared, bad
right to dispose of the customs revenues
which were being collected by Walker.—
The .British commander had also given
public notice that all vessels entering or
leaving*the port of Truxillo must pSy be-
forehand or give security fo| the payment
'hereafter ot all port charges, to what was
Nairaed to be the rightful government of
ftvnduras, viz: that Guardiola. He liad

Letter from Galveston.
Galveston, Sept. 1, I860.
jEditors Citizen: Your friends are re-
joictd at receiving your issue of the 1st
inst^ with the gkxrioua names of Bell and
TT Mt ftafttiwg your masth««Kl. It is a
glorias canse you are espousing, and
tbonsands will biess you for it. Our Uni-
on is wor)h preserving, and it is the duty
now of all good men to lay aside old party
issues and go for the Union. Now, of all
, 0lb«r times, is it the imperative duty of
every lover of his'conntry to come out and
tebuke the spirit of disunion on the one
hand and abolitionism on the other, that is
abroad in the Sooth and North, whose
sole obfect is to break op this Union. Let
every reflecting man in the community
iost think of the consequences of the elec-
tion of Abe Lincoln. The secessionists
and disunionists will immediately go in
for dissolution of the Union; Sou'h Car-
olios will socede forthwith—aud then
bloodshed, carnage and the more
all that morning, from three o'clock until
noon, a space ot nine hours, in the direc-
tion of Truxillo. The cannonading is de-
scribed as sharp and quick, and the sup
position is that the town was beiug attack-
ed on both sides simultaneously—on the
land side by the native Honduras forces,
and on the sea sidé by the British man-of-
war—against both of whom Walker had
to defend himseli at the same time.
This is all supposition, it is true, yet it
has a basis of probability in the facts al-
ready known. The news brought up by
the last arrival was to the effect that the
opposing Hondurians had been assembling
in great numbers before the town, and pre-
paring to attack it, while Walker was re-
mounting the guns, and redoubling every
energy to put his position in the best state
of defence.
We may add, here, that intelligent gen-
tlemen, direct hither by the last twe^ arri-
vals, and personally acquainted with Walk-
er's position, the town and ifortifications of
Truxillo, and the stale of feeling existing
among the Hondurians, put every credit
in the truth of the general statement. It
was knowu that the town was to be attack
ed, and that Walker was preparing to de
feud it against every hazard.
The man-of-war referred to is doubtless
the Icarus, which has been cruising in
those waters, apparently watching Walk-
er's movements, the last six months. Un
der whose or what instructions her com
rnander acts, we have no means of posi
lively knowing. Were it not for the
length of time she has been on the coast
I with apparently a special object in view
we might think she acted under the in
structious or advice of Mr. Price, Superin
tendent of the Belize and Lieut. Governor
ad interim of the Bay Islands.
The length of time, however, the Icarus
had been in those waters, with the known
fact that a large party of. Walker's men
had their rendezvous on the Island of Ru
atan, make it probable that she had in
structionsdirectly from home. .And this
supposition is strengthened by the fact
that the British Consul at Comayagua,and
other ofHcials in the State and at the Be
lize, have openly espoused the cause of the
Government of Honduras, at the bead of
which is Guardiola, as against the oppo
reported to be before the town. Those
who sided with Walker were, of course,
with him; while the neutrals, who only
cared for the'r lives, had fled to the neigh-
boring islands of Utilla and Ruatan.
The town of Truxillo, however, was, at
last accounts, open to all comers, with per-
fect liberty of ingress and egress during
all the hours of the day; and we aré as-
sured that officers of the opposing Hondu-
rian army had been knowu to take advan-
tRge of this freedom of the city to spy out
Walker's forces, movements and maans of
defence.
We are also assured that perfect- order
reigned in the city, aud all legitimate busi-
ness was protected, and, excepting the sus-
picions from the general flight, went on as
before. Two negroes, who were taken in
the act of breaking open stores and rob-
bing, had been shot in the public square.
As to the chances of Walker's success-
ful defence, in case, as believed, he has
thus been attacked from both land and
sea, we have only the same means of judg-
ing as the reader himself. As before
stated, he has possession of one of the best
fortified places of Central America, where
be found eighteen pieces of cannon, 18
and 24 pounders, some one hundred and
fifty small arms, and a large quantity of
stores and ammunition. H9 is said also to

From Brownlow's Paper.
" Dogs or Men !"
don juan: canto vii.
Mr. Editor: I got on a spree a few
nights ago, the very first night 1 ever spent
in this "city," and like many others under
similar circumstances, I was a little noisy.
While I and a few companions quite as
merry as myself were entertaining our-
selves by screeching, halloing and singing
along the streets, in a sort of Comanche
war-whoop style, we were pounced upon
by the police and locked up in the cala
boose, and compelled to pay fines. As we
were in a perfect good humor at the time,
we were somewhat curious to know what
our offence was, and it turned out that we
had offended against a Corporation ordi-
nance prohibiting men to make loud and
disordeilv noises in the "city," especially
in the night time, when we were probably
disturbing good and orderly citizens in
tbeir sleep. We became sensible of the
flagrant character of our sin, and paid up
without a murmur.
, But I now—(being soberly disposed and
craving undisturbed sleep of nights)—I
now demand of the Corporation protection
from a similar disturbance. For several
successive nights I have been disturbed by
llie furious barking, yelping, growling and
fighting of gangs of dogs which infest the
city in the midnight hours, and make in'fi
mtely more fierce and startling noises than

ders have been in the calaboose or other-

tion discrimínatelo favor of dogs? Ordo
the policemen neglect their duty? It is a
question worth a sleepy-headed man's in
quiring into. If the freedom of the "city"
has been secured to the dog population by
the corporate legislation, and that class are
freer than men, it ought to be publicly
known; for in that event about fifty thou-
sand of the meanest dogs in the United
