Great excitewent prevails through' out the country at the outrage at El Pa-o Texas, perpetrated b" the Mexicans upon a b'dy of Rangers (Texas State troops). It appears that the Rangers number some 25 or 30 and are barriceided in a Mex lean dirt hba with walls tw6 feet thick. "The Mexicans number 300 to 400. They demand the surren der by the .Americans of Judre Howard, to be beheaded, upon the refusal of which demand they threatened to- massacre the whole body of Rangers. The at most excitement pr evails and the Governor of Texas has telegrnph, d the President for immediate assist ance and the members of Congrrss from Texas have taken their de parture for home, in view of the state c.f rffairs exitirg U. S troops have been dispatchcd from the nearest posts to the scene of trouble, under orders to make fore ed marches, but it is feared they will arrive too late. Gen. Thos. M Vincent. Asst. Adjutant Gen eral of the Unit, d States Army has been dispatched to the scene of eonfl*et. The forces now en route to El Paco consist of ten compan -nies of the Ninth Cavalry, and one eompany of InfanTry. The whole foice numbers a little over 300 men and will be amply sufficient if ihey arrive in time. The Raingers refuse to surrender Judge Howaro, but their ammunition is almost <x bausted and the Mexicans were un dermining the dirt house at oast ac counts. LATEST.

TO THE PEOPLE OF LOUISIANA: At a regular meeting of the Louisiana a T77 Immigration Association, held on the cI 31st day of October, 1877, the following V BOR- resolution was adopted, to-wit: : 'f Whereas, the necessities of our State aug shonld arouse all the energies of her peo Sat e to promnote and encourag6 immnigra tion, and bring within her borders houn est and industrious citizens. ngers "Rcsolred, That, in order to bring about pears unity of purpose and action throughout 0 25 the State, we recommend to and urge MCi upon the people in each and every parish ti feet to organize at once societies or associa- tI 300 lions to encourage immigration; and that tI rren- when said societies or associations are tit fudeo organized, that they are earnestly r- I t ht qtuested to pr,t themselves in conmmunica they tion with the association.

Public Educa n to tion: ,ple DEAR Sin :-Your letter of Sept. 19th, 1a- addressed to Charles L. Fisher, Esq., Treasurer of the school funds of the Parish lion was duly laid before the School Board at its last meeting. The Board considering of that the implied censure of its course re quired an official answer, b3 resolution instructed me to reply. The Board can the not but think that in the multiplicity of ent your duties you have confused this with other parishes, which have been less Iy rouimt and used less exertion to inform iho you of the exact condition of their school l affairs. Permit me to remind you that every effort has been made by the Board - to thoroughly post you in all matters rel ative to the schools and the difficulties which would be encountered before the schools could be convened. If you re member, a copy in full of the Treasurer's accounts for the last two tinrms was ny forwarded to the chairman of the inves tigating committee in New Orleans, to 1 which your attention was called, show_ e ie ing only a warrant, for $1134 to credit with suits and claims ag';inst the amount e of some $1500. Also that the Tre;surer, Mr. Fisher, wrote you regarding the state or affairs to which you replied "that n you appreciated the crippled condition of the parish and regretted that the school funds now in the Treasury of the State tl did not afford you an opportunity of com- tl iug to the relief of the parish." Since that time $800 have been apportioned, divided among 12 wards ; the Board does not consider that amount as in any de gree a relief to the crippled condi- to tion of the parish, and can adopt no plan C by which 12 or more school houses as sC reanired by law can be built, rented or repaired, furnished or pum in working ta condition with that sum of money. The Li Board is forbiddeii to exceed its revenue th and tile amount of revenue received be at this time is $800. The President of p1 1 the Board in a communication to you some two monthls since, endeavored also Pe to explain the condition of school mat- TI ters, and hoped that he had shown the H, impossibility at that time of commenncing G the schools without the necessary build- de ings and without funds. The Board does not considered that there has been any "omission" in reopening of the Public Schools rlwhen there were no meaus at ed command to do so. Fully realizing the value of Public Education and as evi- a ldenced by accoleptance of the office, willing COt to give the necessary time and attention eat to its advancement, tile Board still do clines to attempt to carry on the Public Ex Schools upon a credit basis or in an wy way O to accumulate a debt which there is no poE assurance will be paid. WVllen means are tea in hindi to conV-ene the schools or whem On apl)portionumIcnts are made shlowVing a reas oamble probability of sustaining them, the Boardl will feel at liberty to com menice its labors. UnLLaware of any ne glect of duty, Ibut consulting its iuterpre. tation of the publlic interests, thie Board go cannot understand how the a.pportion.- n ment duo thle parish, and neeossary to 5 c convene the schools can be withheld cir whuen the schools caniot be re openedl without it. Any suggestious from you to meet tile existing difficulties will be willingly entertainucd by tile Board. Very Respectfillly yours, JAb. P. BOWMIAN, ig President of the Bond.

School houses which are owned by the 'cad Palish should certainly be repaired, by the the Police Jury; those which are rented, jtl, or which may have been donated for the Drt, accommodation of schools, might, I would suggest, be. put in order with a Slm portion of the $1,124 60, apportioned an_ Dec., 1876, unless, indeed, your Treasurer ad- has been enjoined, by legal process, from let paying ont that amount. (Your Board will. I trust, defeat the enforcement of claims for fictitious services, or not drawn rem out and certified in strict conformity to pon law.) If the buildings can thus be put in or tim der, I would then respectfully suggest to tha :your Board, or its Committee, sum mon candidates fdt teachorships before it, and examine them in conformity to the rules of the State Board of Educa tion, (Supplement to page 54 of digest), so vi that you may have competent teachers er" in readiness to open the schools as early ese as possible. ly Towards the support of. such schools, . one, or even two, in each of the school districts, you will have in the Treasurer's hands, of the revenue of 1877: Of 1st.

The December apportionment will probably amount to about $1,600 00 providing teacher's sal Ce- aries for about three months.

Our Conservative party was and still Sis pledged to the maintenance of an e equitable system of public education in o the State at large. You will, therefore, I sincerely trust, pardon mae for now llg ing you to open your schools, if possible, s on or abosit the 15th of November.
